[PATCH RFC 0/2] platform/x86: alienware-wmi-wmax: Extend support to many devices

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

 



Hi all,

After a few months of searching for acpidumps of elegible laptops, I
came to the conclusion that if I continue this way, many devices will
never get support for this interface. This is due to very few users
uploading acpidumps of their machines or contacting me of that matter.

With this patchset, hopefully all (or almost all) elegible devices will
get support.

I'm submitting this as an RFC because I'm extending the WMI API and also
extending support to many unknown laptops models.

This depends on

	platform/x86: alienware-wmi-wmax: HWMON support + DebugFS + Improvements 

series, because I made a few generalizations there that work even for
Alienware desktops.
