Re: [PATCH 1/3] hwmon: (asus-ec-sensors) add driver for ASUS EC

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Eugene,

Have you found some issues with idea of usage ACPI WMI methods as
failback solution, like in case when ASUS will release some BIOS with
different mutex path or different motherboard where will be same WMI
methods but fully different internal logic?
