[PATCH] dell-laptop: Adds support for keyboard backlight timeout AC settings

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

 



When changing keyboard backlight state on new Dell laptops, firmware
expects a new timeout AC value filled in Set New State SMBIOS call.

Without it any change of keyboard backlight state on new Dell laptops
fails. And user can see following error message in dmesg:

  dell_laptop: Setting old previous keyboard state failed
  leds dell::kbd_backlight: Setting an LED's brightness failed (-6)

This patch adds support for retrieving current timeout AC values and also
updating them. Current timeout value in sysfs is displayed based on current
AC status, like current display brightness value.

Detection if Dell laptop supports or not new timeout AC settings is done by
checking existence of Keyboard Backlight with AC SMBIOS token (0x0451).

I have not tested this patch yet as I do not have affected machine. I would
appreciate some testing of this patch on more new Dell laptops. Without
this patch changing keyboard backlight is not possible on affected machines.
