* 'bkl-removal' of git://git.lwn.net/linux-2.6: Rationalize fasync return values Move FASYNC bit handling to f_op->fasync() Use f_lock to protect f_flags Rename struct file->f_ep_lock
2009-03-16Rationalize fasync return valuesJonathan Corbet
Most fasync implementations do something like: return fasync_helper(...); But fasync_helper() will return a positive value at times - a feature used in at least one place. Thus, a number of other drivers do: err = fasync_helper(...); if (err < 0) return err; return 0; In the interests of consistency and more concise code, it makes sense to map positive return values onto zero where ->fasync() is called.

2009-03-16thinkpad-acpi: fix module autoloading for older modelsMathieu Chouquet-Stringer
Looking at the source, there seems to be a missing * to match my DMI string. I mean for newer IBM and Lenovo's laptops you match either one of the following: MODULE_ALIAS("dmi:bvnIBM:*:svnIBM:*:pvrThinkPad*:rvnIBM:*"); MODULE_ALIAS("dmi:bvnLENOVO:*:svnLENOVO:*:pvrThinkPad*:rvnLENOVO:*"); While for older Thinkpads, you do this (for instance): IBM_BIOS_MODULE_ALIAS("1[0,3,6,8,A-G,I,K,M-P,S,T]"); with IBM_BIOS_MODULE_ALIAS being MODULE_ALIAS("dmi:bvnIBM:bvr" __type "ET??WW") Note there's no * terminating the string. As result, udev doesn't load anything because modprobe cannot find anything matching this (my machine actually): udevtest: run: '/sbin/modprobe dmi:bvnIBM:bvr1IET71WW(2.10):bd06/16/2006:svnIBM:pn236621U:pvrNotAv Signed-off-by: Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer <mchouque@free.fr> Acked-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@hmh.eng.br> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2009-03-12acer-wmi: fix regression in backlight detectionMichael Spang
Currently we disable the Acer WMI backlight device if there is no ACPI backlight device. As a result, we end up with no backlight device at all. We should instead disable it if there is an ACPI device, as the other laptop drivers do. This regression was introduced in febf2d9 ("Acer-WMI: fingers off backlight if video.ko is serving this functionality"). Each laptop driver with backlight support got a similar change around febf2d9. The changes to the other drivers look correct; see e.g. a598c82f for a similar but correct change. The regression is also in 2.6.28.

2009-02-21fujitsu-laptop: Use RFKILL support bitmask from firmwareTony Vroon
Up until now, we polled the rfkill status for every incoming FUJ02E3 ACPI event. It turns out that the firmware has a bitmask which indicates what rfkill-related state it can report. The rfkill_supported bitmask is now used to avoid polling for rfkill at all in the notification handler if there is no support. Also, it is used in the platform device callbacks. As before we register all callbacks and report "unknown" if the firmware does not give us status updates for that particular bit. This was fed through checkpatch.pl and tested on the S6420, S7020 and P8010 platforms.

2009-01-20eeepc-laptop: Implement rfkill hotplugging in eeepc-laptopMatthew Garrett
The Eee implements rfkill by logically unplugging the wireless card from the PCI bus. Despite sending ACPI notifications, this does not appear to be implemented using standard ACPI hotplug - nor does the firmware provide the _OSC method required to support native PCIe hotplug. The only sensible choice appears to be to handle the hotplugging directly in the eeepc-laptop driver. Tested successfully on a 700, 900 and 901.
