[PATCH v3 3/3] dell-laptop: Use dell-rbtn instead i8042 filter when possible

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

 



Until now module dell-laptop registered rfkill device which used i8042
filter function for receiving HW switch rfkill events (handling special
keycode).

But for some dell laptops there is native ACPI driver dell-rbtn which can
receive rfkill events (without i8042 hacks). On some machines it can also
control rfkill devices, but can turn on/off all radio devices.

So this patch will combine best from both sides. It will use native ACPI
driver dell-rbtn for receiving events and dell-laptop SMBIOS interface for
enabling or disabling radio devices. If ACPI driver or device will not be
available fallback to i8042 filter function will be used.
