[PATCH v2 4/7] HID: asus: Cycle the platform profile from the Zenbook Duo profile key

From: Paolo Pisati

Date: Fri Oct 09 2026 - 11:37:27 EST


From: Joshua Leivenzon <hacker1024@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The Zenbook Duo keyboard reports Fn+F, the performance mode key, as
vendor usage 0x9d. On the built-in keyboards of other ASUS laptops the
same key arrives through asus-wmi, which cycles the platform profile
in response. Do the same here so the key works on the detachable
keyboard too.

asus_event() runs from the HID input path, which for USB is the URB
completion handler, while platform_profile_cycle() takes a mutex, so
run it from the driver's worker like the Fn-lock toggle, and consume
the event. Only call it when the platform profile class is reachable:
it is not built on architectures without ACPI, where HID_ASUS still
is, and it may be a module while HID_ASUS is built in.

Signed-off-by: Joshua Leivenzon <hacker1024@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[pisati: defer platform_profile_cycle() to the worker, return 1 from
asus_event() instead of propagating its return value, and guard the
call with IS_REACHABLE(CONFIG_ACPI_PLATFORM_PROFILE)]
