Before I send V3, I would explain some detail why we have two files for the dell privacy arch design. Firstly, all these privacy feature are hardware level privacy solution. Dell is going to implement some other dell privacy devices using interface acpi and wmi differently. such as electronic privacy display, privacy camera, and other privacy technology that is coming soon. we need to have dell-privacy-acpi and dell-privacy-wmi files to handle the privacy device interaction with BIOS and EC(embedded controller) - the dell-privacy-wmi file handle the wmi event from BIOS and emit it to userspace , it is wmi interface related driver file. - the dell-privacy-acpi interact with ACPI interface ,dell privacy feature need to send ACK content to EC through ACPI interface. - other privacy device function will be developed according to the interface type. the two driver files will be extended for new devices. If you have any other concerns for arch design , Mario could help to explain some more details to get this clear. Perry Yuan Dell | Client Software Group | CDC Linux OS
