[PATCH v2] platform/x86/dell: alienware-wmi-wmax: add Alienware Area-51 AAT2250
From: Rickey Bartlett
Date: Fri Aug 28 2026 - 10:59:27 EST
Add the Alienware Area-51 (2025 desktop, model AAT2250) to the AWCC DMI
table. G-Mode is not applicable to this desktop, so generic_quirks is
used. The full product name is matched to avoid colliding with the
"Alienware Area-51m" and "Alienware 16/18 Area-51" laptop entries.
Tested on hardware with BIOS 1.6.0: loading with
force_platform_profile=1 force_hwmon=1 exposes a working platform
profile (quiet/balanced/balanced-performance/custom) and a fully
functional hwmon interface (6 fans - CPU, 3 top, 2 front - with fan
boost control and temperature sensors).
