[PATCH v4 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 hooks).

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.

Patch also changes module_init() to late_initcall() to ensure that init
function will be called after initializing dell-rbtn.c driver.

Changes for v4:
 - Use symbol_request() instead hard dependency on function symbols
 - Move rfkill/rbtn/i8042 clean code to dell_cleanup_rfkill()
 - Use late_initcall() instead module_init()
 - Fix commit message and comments, spelling error fixed by aspell
