Hi, any comments on this? I should also mention that this has been tested via https://github.com/jakeday/linux-surface. Maximilian On 5/16/19 4:25 PM, Maximilian Luz wrote:
This series adds suport for power and volume buttons on 5th and 6th generation Microsoft Surface devices. Specifically, it adds support for the power-button on the Surface Laptop 1 and Laptop 2, as well as support for power- and (on-device) volume-buttons on the Surface Pro 5 (2017), Pro 6, and Book 2. These devices use the same MSHW0040 device as on the Surface Pro 4, however, whereas the Pro 4 uses an ACPI notify handler, the newer devices use GPIO interrupts to signal these events. The first patch of this series ensures that the surfacepro3_button driver, used for MSHW0040 on the Pro 4, does not probe for the newer devices. The second patch adapts soc_button_array to implement the actual button support. I think the changes to soc_button_array in the second patch warrant a thorough review. I've tried to make things a bit more generic to be able to integrate arbitrary ACPI GPIO power-/volume-button devices more easily, I'm not sure if there may be reasons against this.
