  • If you are on ia64 and you modprobe xpc then modprobe -r xpc, you
    immediately get a panic. xpc depends on xp which depends on gru for a
    symbol. That symbol is only used when we are running on UV hardware.

    Currently, the GRU driver detects we are not on UV hardware and does no
    initializing. It does not do the same check when unloading. As a result,
    the gru driver attempts to tear down stuff that was not setup.

    This is a simple two-line workaround to get us through this release. Once
    2.6.28 is opened, we need to rework the symbols that xp is depending on
    from gru so the gru driver can properly fail to load when hardware is not
    available.

  • It turns out that event 0x4 merely indcates that a hotkey has been
    pressed, not which one. A further query is required in order to determine
    the actual keypress. The following patch adds support for that along with
    the known keycodes.

  • hp-wmi currently changes the RFKill state by altering the struct members
    rather than using the dedicated interface, meaning that update events
    won't be pushed to userspace. This patch fixes that, along with fixing
    the declared type of the WWAN kill switch. It also ensures that rfkill
    interfaces are only registered for hardware that exists.

  • The acer_wmi driver does a DMI scan for quirks, and then sets flags into the
    "interface" datastructure for some cases. However, the quirks happen real early
    before "interface" is per se initialized from NULL.

    The patch below 1) adds a NULL pointer check and 2) (re)runs the quirks at the
    end, when "interface" has it's final value.

  • In the old acer_acpi, I discovered that on some of the newer AMW0 laptops
    that supported the WMID methods, they don't work properly for setting the
    wireless and bluetooth values.

    So for the AMW0 V2 laptops, we want to use both the 'old' AMW0 and the
    'new' WMID methods for setting wireless & bluetooth to guarantee we always
    enable it.

    This was fixed in acer_acpi some time ago, but I forgot to port the patch
    over to acer-wmi when it was merged.

    (Without this patch, early AMW0 V2 laptops such as the Aspire 5040 won't
    work with acer-wmi, where-as they did with the old acer_acpi).

    AK: fix compilation
