[PATCH 07/13] eeepc-laptop: make disp attribute really write-only

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

 



The disp attribute is write-only, but sysfs doesn't know this. Currently
show_sys_acpi() is mimicking sysfs behavior, if the underlying acpi call
should fail. This is not ideal; behaving like sysfs is better left to
sysfs.

Introduce EEEPC_CREATE_DEVICE_ATTR_WO() to instantiate a write-only
attribute, and declare the disp attribute with it. Sysfs makes sure
userspace can only write to disp at all times. This also means we can
back to propagating any errors from get_acpi().
