[PATCH] Dell AWCC platform_profile support

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

 



This patch adds platform_profile support for Dell devices which implement
User Selectable Thermal Tables (USTT) that are meant to be controlled by
Alienware Command Center (AWCC). These devices may include newer Alienware
M-Series, Alienware X-Series and Dell's G-Series. This patch, was tested
by me on an Alienware x15 R1.

It is suspected that Alienware Command Center manages thermal profiles
through the WMI interface, specifically through a device with identifier
\_SB_.AMW1.WMAX. This device was reverse engineered and the relevant
functionality is documented here [1]. This driver interacts with this
WMI device and thus is able to mimic AWCC's thermal profiles functionality
through the platform_profile API. In consequence the user would be able
to set and retrieve thermal profiles, which are just fan speed profiles.

This driver was heavily inspired on inspur_platform_profile, special
thanks.

Notes:
 - Performance (FullSpeed) profile is a special profile which has it's own
   entry in the Firmware Settings of the Alienware x15 R1. It also changes
   the color of the F1 key. I suspect this behavior would be replicated in
   other X-Series or M-Series laptops.
 - G-Mode is a profile documented on [1] which mimics the behavior of
   FullSpeed mode but it does not have an entry on the Firmware Settings of
   the Alienware x15 R1, this may correspond to the G-Mode functionality on
   G-Series laptops (activated by a special button) but I cannot test it. I
   did not include this code in the driver as G-Mode causes unexpected
   behavior on X-Series laptops.

Thanks for your time and patiente in advance.

Regards,

Kurt
