[PATCH v7 00/16] platform-x86: lenovo-wmi: Add fixes and enhancement
From: Derek J. Clark
Date: Wed Apr 01 2026 - 23:26:57 EST
This series adds many much needed fixes and features to the lenovo-wmi
drivers. This version has been re-ordered to ensure the simplest
application to the stable tree, with all fixes being pushed up front.
This has caused some churn in the latter half of the series where I'm
immediately changing things that were just added, but this should ensure
a better result for all kernel versions so I'm happy with it.
Patches 1-7 fix various bugs in the existing drivers and are Cc'd to
stable.
Patch 8 moves all gamezone enums from the gamezone header into the
helpers header in preparation for the rest of the series.
Patch 9 moves LWMI_FAN_DIV to be next to the rest of the fan attribute
defines in preparation for adding additional attrbiute macros. This is
so the attribute macros can all be in the same place in the file.
Patch 10 adds a function to make assigning attribute ID's for capdata
cleaner and easier.
Patch 11 adds the remaining CPU attributes that weren't previously
exposed.
Patch 12 adds GPU attributes.
Patch 13 renames a name constant in preparation for patch 6.
Patch 14 adds battery charge-type limiting when supported only by WMI, or
when a module parameter to skip compatibility checks is set. The
MODULE_PARM_DESC macro creates one check and two warnings in checkpatch.
I reviewed other examples from the kernel and I am following the same
convention, so I left it as is.
Patch 15 adds a debugfs directory.
Patch 16 adds a debugfs file for dumping capdata.

---
v7:
- Add 3 additional bug fix patches from Rong Zhang reported by
shashiko.dev
- Reorder patches so the fixes are upfront in patches 1-7.
- Fix various typos and rebase mixups from v6.
v6: https://lore.kernel.org/platform-driver-x86/20260331181208.421552-1-derekjohn.clark@xxxxxxxxx/
- Incorporate Rong Zhang's debugfs and decoupling patches into the
series.
- Add a patch to clean up too many cross-references to wmi-gamezone.h
- Make lwmi_attr_id a static inline in wmi-capdata.h
- Added a patch to fix a bug where ares.arg1 is uninitialized when it
is sent to the firmware.
- Add supported checks before adding battery extenstion, and ensure
both the new checks and the is_writable checks are not casting u32
to i32.
- Misc formating changes.
v5: https://lore.kernel.org/platform-driver-x86/20260324221032.1333636-1-derekjohn.clark@xxxxxxxxx/
- Remove cv/cd_mode_id references that occured before patch 4.
- Move lwmi_attr_id to capdata.c with a namespace export.
- Fix mixing include.
- Make lwmi_attr_is_supported return bool.
- Use switch instead of if for setting/getting charge type state.
- Various formatting fixes.
v4: https://lore.kernel.org/platform-driver-x86/20260312031032.3467565-1-derekjohn.clark@xxxxxxxxx/
- Use loop instead of back gotos for identifying the working attribute
ID.
- Use function instead of macro to assign attribute_id, preserving
types.
- Removed unused defines and enum values.
- Rename charging defines to clarify thier purpose.
- Fixed various formatting issues from v3.
- Added module param to skip ACPI check when loading the driver for
the power supply extension.
- Don't abort adding power supply extension if the ACPI handle from
ideapad is not present.
- Don't worry about symmetric cleanup when cleaning up attributes in
an error state.
- Reword Patch 8 commit message to be more concise.
- Fix wording in Patch 7 to match the changes.
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/platform-driver-x86/20260224043200.2680384-1-derekjohn.clark@xxxxxxxxx/
- Re-add HWMON name const and just rename LWMI_OM_FW_ATTR_BASE_PATH
- Fix linker warnings by moving acpi/battery include to the end of the
list.
- Remove CPU/GPU OC features. These attributes are BOOL type and will
need a new constructor that I'll add later.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/platform-driver-x86/20260215061339.2842486-1-derekjohn.clark@xxxxxxxxx/
- Fix gpu_mode misisng from attributes list.
- Fix prototypes for power suppy patch.
- Reorganize CPU and GPU attributes alphabetically.
- Break out the patch consolidating the driver name cost.
- Move some of the refactoring of attribute_id back to into patch 1
where it belongs.
- Fix some additional typos in function prototypes.
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/platform-driver-x86/20260213081243.794288-1-derekjohn.clark@xxxxxxxxx/
