From a50245af782ea85b1d5ad23e1015e0ac52996b27 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh Date: Sun, 5 Jun 2011 16:22:35 -0300 Subject: thinkpad-acpi: handle HKEY 0x4010, 0x4011 events Handle events 0x4010 and 0x4011 so that we do not pester users about them. These events report when the thinkpad is docked/undocked to a native hotplug dock (i.e. one that does not need ACPI handling, nor is represented in the ACPI device tree). Such docks are based on USB 2.0/3.0, and also work as port replicators. We really want a proper dock class to report these, or at least new input EV_SW events. Since it is not clear which one to use yet, keep reporting them as vendor-specific ThinkPad events. WARNING: As defined by the thinkpad-acpi sysfs ABI rules of engagement, the vendor-specific events will be REMOVED as soon as generic events are made available (duplicate events are a big problem), with an appropriate update to the thinkpad-acpi sysfs/event ABI versioning. Userspace is already prepared to provide easy backwards compatibility for such changes when convenient to the distro (see acpi-fakekey). * Event 0x4010: docking to hotplug dock/port replicator * Event 0x4011: undocking from hotplug dock/port replicator Typical usecase would be to trigger display reconfiguration. Reports mention T410, T510, and series 3 docks/port replicators. Special thanks to Robert de Rooy for his extensive report and analysis of the situation. http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ThinkPad_Port_Replicator_Series_3 http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ThinkPad_Mini_Dock_Series_3 http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ThinkPad_Mini_Dock_Plus_Series_3 http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ThinkPad_Mini_Dock_Plus_Series_3_for_Mobile_Workstations http://lenovoblogs.com/insidethebox/?p=290 Signed-off-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh Cc: Matthew Garrett Reported-by: Claudius Hubig Reported-by: Doctor Bill Reported-by: Korte Noack Reported-by: Robert de Rooy Reported-by: Sebastian Will Signed-off-by: Matthew Garrett --- Documentation/laptops/thinkpad-acpi.txt | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) (limited to 'Documentation') diff --git a/Documentation/laptops/thinkpad-acpi.txt b/Documentation/laptops/thinkpad-acpi.txt index 4bc92ea93f2..61815483efa 100644 --- a/Documentation/laptops/thinkpad-acpi.txt +++ b/Documentation/laptops/thinkpad-acpi.txt @@ -547,6 +547,8 @@ Events that are propagated by the driver to userspace: 0x3006 Bay hotplug request (hint to power up SATA link when the optical drive tray is ejected) 0x4003 Undocked (see 0x2x04), can sleep again +0x4010 Docked into hotplug port replicator (non-ACPI dock) +0x4011 Undocked from hotplug port replicator (non-ACPI dock) 0x500B Tablet pen inserted into its storage bay 0x500C Tablet pen removed from its storage bay 0x6011 ALARM: battery is too hot -- cgit v1.2.3-18-g5258
