Re: [PATCH] Fixed ideapad-laptop driver to support Yoga 9 2 in 1 14imh9 unknown keys

[Hans de Goede]

Hi Gašper,

Thank you for your patch. 

First if all a few generic notes:

1. When sending out v2 of the patch please add
   platform-driver-x86@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx to the Cc

2. The patch subject (first line of commit message) should have
   a prefix describing the subsystem + driver, e.g. use:
   "platform/x86: ideapad-laptop: Add a few new keymap entries"

3. Your patch is missing a signed-off-by, see:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html#sign-your-work-the-developer-s-certificate-of-origin

4. Your commit message / patch should also have a body, e.g.
   the entirety of the commit message could look something like this:

-- begin --
platform/x86: ideapad-laptop: Add a few new keymap entries

The Yoga 9 2 in 1 14imh9 introduces 4 new hotkeys which are not
yet in ideapad_keymap[], add entries to map these keys.

A few more specific remarks below based on looking at
this picture of the keyboard:

Ack.

It looks like the laptop already does display-toggle as Fn-F7 although
it like sends super + P for this (AKA meta + P).

So mapping this to KEY_DISPLAYTOGGLE seems wrong, what does this
do under Windows?

Maybe KEY_ZOOM ?

I think that instead of mapping this it should be handled specially
and call platform_profile_cycle() instead of sending a key-press
to userspace

Looking a the symbol on the keyboard this should send
KEY_SELECTIVE_SCREENSHOT
