This is a Linux driver for the IBM and Lenovo ThinkPad laptops. It
|
|
|
|
supports various features of these laptops which are accessible
|
|
|
|
through the ACPI and ACPI EC framework, but not otherwise fully
|
|
|
|
supported by the generic Linux ACPI drivers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This driver used to be named ibm-acpi until kernel 2.6.21 and release
|
|
|
|
0.13-20070314. It used to be in the drivers/acpi tree, but it was
|
|
|
|
moved to the drivers/misc tree and renamed to thinkpad-acpi for kernel
|
|
|
|
2.6.22, and release 0.14.

Installation
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you are compiling this driver as included in the Linux kernel
|
2007-03-29 00:58:43 -04:00
|
|
|
sources, simply enable the CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI option, and optionally
|
|
|
|
enable the CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_BAY option if you want the
|
|
|
|
thinkpad-specific bay functionality.

Features
|
|
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-24 10:48:12 -04:00
|
|
|
The driver exports two different interfaces to userspace, which can be
|
|
|
|
used to access the features it provides. One is a legacy procfs-based
|
|
|
|
interface, which will be removed at some time in the distant future.
|
|
|
|
The other is a new sysfs-based interface which is not complete yet.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The procfs interface creates the /proc/acpi/ibm directory. There is a
|
|
|
|
file under that directory for each feature it supports. The procfs
|
|
|
|
interface is mostly frozen, and will change very little if at all: it
|
|
|
|
will not be extended to add any new functionality in the driver, instead
|
|
|
|
all new functionality will be implemented on the sysfs interface.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The sysfs interface tries to blend in the generic Linux sysfs subsystems
|
|
|
|
and classes as much as possible. Since some of these subsystems are not
|
|
|
|
yet ready or stabilized, it is expected that this interface will change,
|
|
|
|
and any and all userspace programs must deal with it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Notes about the sysfs interface:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Unlike what was done with the procfs interface, correctness when talking
|
|
|
|
to the sysfs interfaces will be enforced, as will correctness in the
|
|
|
|
thinkpad-acpi's implementation of sysfs interfaces.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Also, any bugs in the thinkpad-acpi sysfs driver code or in the
|
|
|
|
thinkpad-acpi's implementation of the sysfs interfaces will be fixed for
|
|
|
|
maximum correctness, even if that means changing an interface in
|
|
|
|
non-compatible ways. As these interfaces mature both in the kernel and
|
|
|
|
in thinkpad-acpi, such changes should become quite rare.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Applications interfacing to the thinkpad-acpi sysfs interfaces must
|
|
|
|
follow all sysfs guidelines and correctly process all errors (the sysfs
|
|
|
|
interface makes extensive use of errors). File descriptors and open /
|
|
|
|
close operations to the sysfs inodes must also be properly implemented.

|
2007-04-24 10:48:13 -04:00
|
|
|
The version of thinkpad-acpi's sysfs interface is exported by the driver
|
|
|
|
as a driver attribute (see below).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sysfs driver attributes are on the driver's sysfs attribute space,
|
2007-09-25 05:38:03 -04:00
|
|
|
for 2.6.23 this is /sys/bus/platform/drivers/thinkpad_acpi/ and
|
|
|
|
/sys/bus/platform/drivers/thinkpad_hwmon/
|
2007-04-24 10:48:13 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2007-09-25 05:38:03 -04:00
|
|
|
Sysfs device attributes are on the thinkpad_acpi device sysfs attribute
|
|
|
|
space, for 2.6.23 this is /sys/devices/platform/thinkpad_acpi/.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sysfs device attributes for the sensors and fan are on the
|
|
|
|
thinkpad_hwmon device's sysfs attribute space, but you should locate it
|
|
|
|
looking for a hwmon device with the name attribute of "thinkpad".

|
|
|
|
|
sysfs driver attribute: interface_version
|
|
|
|
|

Version of the thinkpad-acpi sysfs interface, as an unsigned long
|
|
|

(output in hex format: 0xAAAABBCC), where:
|
|
|
|
AAAA - major revision
|

|
|

|
The sysfs interface version changelog for the driver can be found at the
|
|
|
|
end of this document. Changes to the sysfs interface done by the kernel
|
|
|
|
subsystems are not documented here, nor are they tracked by this
|
|
|
|
attribute.

|
|
|
|
2007-07-18 22:45:32 -04:00
|
|
|
Changes to the thinkpad-acpi sysfs interface are only considered
|
|
|
|
non-experimental when they are submitted to Linux mainline, at which
|
|
|
|
point the changes in this interface are documented and interface_version
|
|
|
|
may be updated. If you are using any thinkpad-acpi features not yet
|
|
|
|
sent to mainline for merging, you do so on your own risk: these features
|
|
|
|
may disappear, or be implemented in a different and incompatible way by
|
|
|
|
the time they are merged in Linux mainline.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes that are backwards-compatible by nature (e.g. the addition of
|
|
|
|
attributes that do not change the way the other attributes work) do not
|
|
|
|
always warrant an update of interface_version. Therefore, one must
|
|
|
|
expect that an attribute might not be there, and deal with it properly
|
|
|
|
(an attribute not being there *is* a valid way to make it clear that a
|
|
|
|
feature is not available in sysfs).

In a ThinkPad, the ACPI HKEY handler is responsible for comunicating
|
|
|
|
some important events and also keyboard hot key presses to the operating
|
|
|
|
system. Enabling the hotkey functionality of thinkpad-acpi signals the
|
|
|
|
firmware that such a driver is present, and modifies how the ThinkPad
|
|
|
|
firmware will behave in many situations.

ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: revert new 2.6.23 CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED option
Revert new 2.6.23 CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED Kconfig option because
it would create a legacy we don't want to support.
CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED was added to try to fix an issue that is
now moot with the addition of the netlink ACPI event report interface to
the ACPI core.
Now that ACPI core can send events over netlink, we can use a different
strategy to keep backwards compatibility with older userspace, without the
need for the CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED games. And it arrived
before CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED made it to a stable mainline
kernel, even, which is Good.
This patch is in sync with some changes to thinkpad-acpi backports, that
will keep things sane for userspace across different combinations of kernel
versions, thinkpad-acpi backports (or the lack thereof), and userspace
capabilities:
Unless a module parameter is used, thinkpad-acpi will now behave in such a
way that it will work well (by default) with userspace that still uses only
the old ACPI procfs event interface and doesn't care for thinkpad-acpi
input devices.
It will also always work well with userspace that has been updated to use
both the thinkpad-acpi input devices, and ACPI core netlink event
interface, regardless of any module parameter.
The module parameter was added to allow thinkpad-acpi to work with
userspace that has been partially updated to use thinkpad-acpi input
devices, but not the new ACPI core netlink event interface. To use this
mode of hot key reporting, one has to specify the hotkey_report_mode=2
module parameter.
The thinkpad-acpi driver exports the value of hotkey_report_mode through
sysfs, as well. thinkpad-acpi backports to older kernels, that do not
support the new ACPI core netlink interface, have code to allow userspace
to switch hotkey_report_mode at runtime through sysfs. This capability
will not be provided in mainline thinkpad-acpi as it is not needed there.

The driver will generate events over the input layer for hot keys and
|
|
|
|
radio switches, and over the ACPI netlink layer for other events. The
|
|
|
|
input layer support accepts the standard IOCTLs to remap the keycodes
|
|
|
|
assigned to each hot key.
|
2007-07-18 22:45:36 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The hot key bit mask allows some control over which hot keys generate
|
|
|
|
events. If a key is "masked" (bit set to 0 in the mask), the firmware
|
|
|
|
will handle it. If it is "unmasked", it signals the firmware that
|
|
|
|
thinkpad-acpi would prefer to handle it, if the firmware would be so
|
|
|
|
kind to allow it (and it often doesn't!).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Not all bits in the mask can be modified. Not all bits that can be
|
|
|
|
modified do anything. Not all hot keys can be individually controlled
|
|
|
|
by the mask. Some models do not support the mask at all, and in those
|
|
|
|
models, hot keys cannot be controlled individually. The behaviour of
|
|
|
|
the mask is, therefore, higly dependent on the ThinkPad model.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that unmasking some keys prevents their default behavior. For
|
|
|
|
example, if Fn+F5 is unmasked, that key will no longer enable/disable
|
|
|
|

Note also that not all Fn key combinations are supported through ACPI.
|
|
|
|
For example, on the X40, the brightness, volume and "Access IBM" buttons
|
|
|
|
do not generate ACPI events even with this driver. They *can* be used
|
|
|
|
through the "ThinkPad Buttons" utility, see http://www.nongnu.org/tpb/

The procfs interface does not support NVRAM polling control. So as to
|
|
|
|
maintain maximum bug-to-bug compatibility, it does not report any masks,
|
|
|
|
nor does it allow one to manipulate the hot key mask when the firmware
|
|
|
|
does not support masks at all, even if NVRAM polling is in use.

Note: when NVRAM polling is active, the firmware mask

|
|
|
|
Unless you know which events need to be handled

passively (because the firmware *will* handle them
|
|

anyway), do *not* use hotkey_all_mask. Use

hotkey_source_mask:
|
|
|
|
bit mask that selects which hot keys will the driver
|
|
|
|
poll the NVRAM for. This is auto-detected by the driver
|
|
|
|
based on the capabilities reported by the ACPI firmware,
|
|
|
|
but it can be overridden at runtime.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hot keys whose bits are set in both hotkey_source_mask
|
|
|
|
and also on hotkey_mask are polled for in NVRAM. Only a
|
|
|
|
few hot keys are available through CMOS NVRAM polling.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Warning: when in NVRAM mode, the volume up/down/mute
|
|
|
|
keys are synthesized according to changes in the mixer,
|
|
|
|
so you have to use volume up or volume down to unmute,
|
|
|
|
as per the ThinkPad volume mixer user interface. When
|
|
|
|
in ACPI event mode, volume up/down/mute are reported as
|
|
|
|
separate events, but this behaviour may be corrected in
|
|
|
|
future releases of this driver, in which case the
|
|
|
|
ThinkPad volume mixer user interface semanthics will be
|
|
|
|
enforced.

hotkey_poll_freq:
|

|
frequency in Hz for hot key polling. It must be between

0 and 25 Hz. Polling is only carried out when strictly
|
|
|
|
needed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setting hotkey_poll_freq to zero disables polling, and
|
|
|
|
will cause hot key presses that require NVRAM polling
|
|
|
|
to never be reported.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setting hotkey_poll_freq too low will cause repeated
|
|
|
|
pressings of the same hot key to be misreported as a
|
|
|
|
single key press, or to not even be detected at all.
|
|
|
|
The recommended polling frequency is 10Hz.

ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: revert new 2.6.23 CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED option
Revert new 2.6.23 CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED Kconfig option because
it would create a legacy we don't want to support.
CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED was added to try to fix an issue that is
now moot with the addition of the netlink ACPI event report interface to
the ACPI core.
Now that ACPI core can send events over netlink, we can use a different
strategy to keep backwards compatibility with older userspace, without the
need for the CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED games. And it arrived
before CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED made it to a stable mainline
kernel, even, which is Good.
This patch is in sync with some changes to thinkpad-acpi backports, that
will keep things sane for userspace across different combinations of kernel
versions, thinkpad-acpi backports (or the lack thereof), and userspace
capabilities:
Unless a module parameter is used, thinkpad-acpi will now behave in such a
way that it will work well (by default) with userspace that still uses only
the old ACPI procfs event interface and doesn't care for thinkpad-acpi
input devices.
It will also always work well with userspace that has been updated to use
both the thinkpad-acpi input devices, and ACPI core netlink event
interface, regardless of any module parameter.
The module parameter was added to allow thinkpad-acpi to work with
userspace that has been partially updated to use thinkpad-acpi input
devices, but not the new ACPI core netlink event interface. To use this
mode of hot key reporting, one has to specify the hotkey_report_mode=2
module parameter.
The thinkpad-acpi driver exports the value of hotkey_report_mode through
sysfs, as well. thinkpad-acpi backports to older kernels, that do not
support the new ACPI core netlink interface, have code to allow userspace
to switch hotkey_report_mode at runtime through sysfs. This capability
will not be provided in mainline thinkpad-acpi as it is not needed there.

ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: wakeup on hotunplug reporting
Handle some HKEY events that the firmware uses to report the reason for a
wake up, and to also notify that the system could go back to sleep (if it
woke up just to eject something from the bay, or to undock).
The driver will report the reason of the last wake up in the sysfs
attribute "wakeup_reason": 0 for "none, unknown, or standard ACPI wake up
event", 1 for "bay ejection request" and 2 for "undock request".
The firmware will also report if the operation that triggered the wake up
has been completed, by issuing an HKEY 0x3003 or 0x4003 event. If the
operation fails, no event is sent. When such a hotunplug sucessfull
notification is issued, the driver sets the attribute
"wakeup_hotunplug_complete" to 1.
While the firmware does tell us whether we are waking from a suspend or
hibernation scenario, the Linux way of hibernating makes this information
not reliable, and therefore it is not reported.
The idea is that if any of these attributes are non-zero, userspace might
want to do something at the end of the "wake up from sleep" procedures,
such as offering to send the machine back into sleep as soon as it is safe
to do so.

input layer notes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A Hot key is mapped to a single input layer EV_KEY event, possibly
|
|
|
|
followed by an EV_MSC MSC_SCAN event that shall contain that key's scan
|
|
|
|
code. An EV_SYN event will always be generated to mark the end of the
|
|
|
|
event block.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Do not use the EV_MSC MSC_SCAN events to process keys. They are to be
|
|
|
|
used as a helper to remap keys, only. They are particularly useful when
|
|
|
|
remapping KEY_UNKNOWN keys.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

The events are available in an input device, with the following id:

The ThinkPad firmware does not allow one to differentiate when most hot
|
|
|
|
keys are pressed or released (either that, or we don't know how to, yet).
|
|
|
|
For these keys, the driver generates a set of events for a key press and
|
|
|
|
immediately issues the same set of events for a key release. It is
|
|
|
|
unknown by the driver if the ThinkPad firmware triggered these events on
|
|
|
|
hot key press or release, but the firmware will do it for either one, not
|
|
|
|
both.

ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: revert new 2.6.23 CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED option
Revert new 2.6.23 CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED Kconfig option because
it would create a legacy we don't want to support.
CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED was added to try to fix an issue that is
now moot with the addition of the netlink ACPI event report interface to
the ACPI core.
Now that ACPI core can send events over netlink, we can use a different
strategy to keep backwards compatibility with older userspace, without the
need for the CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED games. And it arrived
before CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED made it to a stable mainline
kernel, even, which is Good.
This patch is in sync with some changes to thinkpad-acpi backports, that
will keep things sane for userspace across different combinations of kernel
versions, thinkpad-acpi backports (or the lack thereof), and userspace
capabilities:
Unless a module parameter is used, thinkpad-acpi will now behave in such a
way that it will work well (by default) with userspace that still uses only
the old ACPI procfs event interface and doesn't care for thinkpad-acpi
input devices.
It will also always work well with userspace that has been updated to use
both the thinkpad-acpi input devices, and ACPI core netlink event
interface, regardless of any module parameter.
The module parameter was added to allow thinkpad-acpi to work with
userspace that has been partially updated to use thinkpad-acpi input
devices, but not the new ACPI core netlink event interface. To use this
mode of hot key reporting, one has to specify the hotkey_report_mode=2
module parameter.
The thinkpad-acpi driver exports the value of hotkey_report_mode through
sysfs, as well. thinkpad-acpi backports to older kernels, that do not
support the new ACPI core netlink interface, have code to allow userspace
to switch hotkey_report_mode at runtime through sysfs. This capability
will not be provided in mainline thinkpad-acpi as it is not needed there.

ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: wakeup on hotunplug reporting
Handle some HKEY events that the firmware uses to report the reason for a
wake up, and to also notify that the system could go back to sleep (if it
woke up just to eject something from the bay, or to undock).
The driver will report the reason of the last wake up in the sysfs
attribute "wakeup_reason": 0 for "none, unknown, or standard ACPI wake up
event", 1 for "bay ejection request" and 2 for "undock request".
The firmware will also report if the operation that triggered the wake up
has been completed, by issuing an HKEY 0x3003 or 0x4003 event. If the
operation fails, no event is sent. When such a hotunplug sucessfull
notification is issued, the driver sets the attribute
"wakeup_hotunplug_complete" to 1.
While the firmware does tell us whether we are waking from a suspend or
hibernation scenario, the Linux way of hibernating makes this information
not reliable, and therefore it is not reported.
The idea is that if any of these attributes are non-zero, userspace might
want to do something at the end of the "wake up from sleep" procedures,
such as offering to send the machine back into sleep as soon as it is safe
to do so.

Compatibility notes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ibm-acpi and thinkpad-acpi 0.15 (mainline kernels before 2.6.23) never
|
|
|
|
supported the input layer, and sent events over the procfs ACPI event
|
|
|
|
interface.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To avoid sending duplicate events over the input layer and the ACPI
|
|
|
|
event interface, thinkpad-acpi 0.16 implements a module parameter
|
|
|
|
(hotkey_report_mode), and also a sysfs device attribute with the same
|
|
|
|
name.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Make no mistake here: userspace is expected to switch to using the input
|
|
|
|
layer interface of thinkpad-acpi, together with the ACPI netlink event
|
|
|
|
interface in kernels 2.6.23 and later, or with the ACPI procfs event
|
|
|
|
interface in kernels 2.6.22 and earlier.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If no hotkey_report_mode module parameter is specified (or it is set to
|
|
|
|
zero), the driver defaults to mode 1 (see below), and on kernels 2.6.22
|
|
|
|
and earlier, also allows one to change the hotkey_report_mode through
|
|
|
|
sysfs. In kernels 2.6.23 and later, where the netlink ACPI event
|
|
|
|
interface is available, hotkey_report_mode cannot be changed through
|
|
|
|
sysfs (it is read-only).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the hotkey_report_mode module parameter is set to 1 or 2, it cannot
|
|
|
|
be changed later through sysfs (any writes will return -EPERM to signal
|
|
|
|
that hotkey_report_mode was locked. On 2.6.23 and later, where
|
|
|
|
hotkey_report_mode cannot be changed at all, writes will return -EACES).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
hotkey_report_mode set to 1 makes the driver export through the procfs
|
|
|
|
ACPI event interface all hot key presses (which are *also* sent to the
|
|
|
|
input layer). This is a legacy compatibility behaviour, and it is also
|
|
|
|
the default mode of operation for the driver.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
hotkey_report_mode set to 2 makes the driver filter out the hot key
|
|
|
|
presses from the procfs ACPI event interface, so these events will only
|
|
|
|
be sent through the input layer. Userspace that has been updated to use
|
|
|
|
the thinkpad-acpi input layer interface should set hotkey_report_mode to
|
|
|
|
2.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hot key press events are never sent to the ACPI netlink event interface.
|
|
|
|
Really up-to-date userspace under kernel 2.6.23 and later is to use the
|
|
|
|
netlink interface and the input layer interface, and don't bother at all
|
|
|
|
with hotkey_report_mode.

Video output control -- /proc/acpi/ibm/video
|
|
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This feature allows control over the devices used for video output -
|
|
|
|
LCD, CRT or DVI (if available). The following commands are available:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo lcd_enable > /proc/acpi/ibm/video
|
|
|
|
echo lcd_disable > /proc/acpi/ibm/video
|
|
|
|
echo crt_enable > /proc/acpi/ibm/video
|
|
|
|
echo crt_disable > /proc/acpi/ibm/video
|
|
|
|
echo dvi_enable > /proc/acpi/ibm/video
|
|
|
|
echo dvi_disable > /proc/acpi/ibm/video
|
|
|
|
echo auto_enable > /proc/acpi/ibm/video
|
|
|
|
echo auto_disable > /proc/acpi/ibm/video
|
|
|
|
echo expand_toggle > /proc/acpi/ibm/video
|
|
|
|
echo video_switch > /proc/acpi/ibm/video
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each video output device can be enabled or disabled individually.
|
|
|
|
Reading /proc/acpi/ibm/video shows the status of each device.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Automatic video switching can be enabled or disabled. When automatic
|
|
|
|
video switching is enabled, certain events (e.g. opening the lid,
|
|
|
|
docking or undocking) cause the video output device to change
|
|
|
|
automatically. While this can be useful, it also causes flickering
|
|
|
|
and, on the X40, video corruption. By disabling automatic switching,
|
|
|
|
the flickering or video corruption can be avoided.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The video_switch command cycles through the available video outputs
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
(it simulates the behavior of Fn-F7).
|
2005-04-16 18:20:36 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Video expansion can be toggled through this feature. This controls
|
|
|
|
whether the display is expanded to fill the entire LCD screen when a
|
|
|
|
mode with less than full resolution is used. Note that the current
|
|
|
|
video expansion status cannot be determined through this feature.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that on many models (particularly those using Radeon graphics
|
|
|
|
chips) the X driver configures the video card in a way which prevents
|
|
|
|
Fn-F7 from working. This also disables the video output switching
|
|
|
|
features of this driver, as it uses the same ACPI methods as
|
|
|
|
Fn-F7. Video switching on the console should still work.
|
|
|
|
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
UPDATE: There's now a patch for the X.org Radeon driver which
|
|
|
|
addresses this issue. Some people are reporting success with the patch
|
|
|
|
while others are still having problems. For more information:

Docking / undocking -- /proc/acpi/ibm/dock
|
2005-04-16 18:20:36 -04:00
|
|
|
------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Docking and undocking (e.g. with the X4 UltraBase) requires some
|
|
|
|
actions to be taken by the operating system to safely make or break
|
|
|
|
the electrical connections with the dock.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The docking feature of this driver generates the following ACPI events:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ibm/dock GDCK 00000003 00000001 -- eject request
|
|
|
|
ibm/dock GDCK 00000003 00000002 -- undocked
|
|
|
|
ibm/dock GDCK 00000000 00000003 -- docked
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: These events will only be generated if the laptop was docked
|
|
|
|
when originally booted. This is due to the current lack of support for
|
|
|
|
hot plugging of devices in the Linux ACPI framework. If the laptop was
|
|

Mar 17 01:42:34 aero kernel: thinkpad_acpi: dock device not present
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In this case, no dock-related events are generated but the dock and
|
|
|
|
undock commands described below still work. They can be executed
|
|
|
|
manually or triggered by Fn key combinations (see the example acpid
|
|
|
|
configuration files included in the driver tarball package available
|
|
|
|
on the web site).
|
2005-04-16 18:20:36 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When the eject request button on the dock is pressed, the first event
|
|
|
|
above is generated. The handler for this event should issue the
|
|
|
|
following command:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo undock > /proc/acpi/ibm/dock
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After the LED on the dock goes off, it is safe to eject the laptop.
|
|
|
|
Note: if you pressed this key by mistake, go ahead and eject the
|
|
|
|
laptop, then dock it back in. Otherwise, the dock may not function as
|
|
|
|
expected.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When the laptop is docked, the third event above is generated. The
|
|
|
|
handler for this event should issue the following command to fully
|
|
|
|
enable the dock:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo dock > /proc/acpi/ibm/dock
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The contents of the /proc/acpi/ibm/dock file shows the current status
|
|
|
|
of the dock, as provided by the ACPI framework.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The docking support in this driver does not take care of enabling or
|
|
|
|
disabling any other devices you may have attached to the dock. For
|
|
|
|
example, a CD drive plugged into the UltraBase needs to be disabled or
|
|
|
|
enabled separately. See the provided example acpid configuration files
|
|
|
|
for how this can be accomplished.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There is no support yet for PCI devices that may be attached to a
|
|
|
|
docking station, e.g. in the ThinkPad Dock II. The driver currently
|
|
|
|
does not recognize, enable or disable such devices. This means that
|
|
|
|
the only docking stations currently supported are the X-series
|
|
|
|
UltraBase docks and "dumb" port replicators like the Mini Dock (the
|
|
|
|
latter don't need any ACPI support, actually).

UltraBay eject -- /proc/acpi/ibm/bay

|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Inserting or ejecting an UltraBay device requires some actions to be
|
|
|
|
taken by the operating system to safely make or break the electrical
|
|
|
|
connections with the device.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This feature generates the following ACPI events:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ibm/bay MSTR 00000003 00000000 -- eject request
|
|
|
|
ibm/bay MSTR 00000001 00000000 -- eject lever inserted
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: These events will only be generated if the UltraBay was present
|
|
|
|
when the laptop was originally booted (on the X series, the UltraBay
|
|
|
|
is in the dock, so it may not be present if the laptop was undocked).
|
|
|
|
This is due to the current lack of support for hot plugging of devices
|
|
|
|
in the Linux ACPI framework. If the laptop was booted without the
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
UltraBay, the following message is shown in the logs:
|
|
|
|
|
2007-03-29 00:58:43 -04:00
|
|
|
Mar 17 01:42:34 aero kernel: thinkpad_acpi: bay device not present
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In this case, no bay-related events are generated but the eject
|
2005-04-16 18:20:36 -04:00
|
|
|
command described below still works. It can be executed manually or
|
|
|
|
triggered by a hot key combination.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sliding the eject lever generates the first event shown above. The
|
|
|
|
handler for this event should take whatever actions are necessary to
|
|
|
|
shut down the device in the UltraBay (e.g. call idectl), then issue
|
|
|
|
the following command:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo eject > /proc/acpi/ibm/bay
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After the LED on the UltraBay goes off, it is safe to pull out the
|
|
|
|
device.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When the eject lever is inserted, the second event above is
|
|
|
|
generated. The handler for this event should take whatever actions are
|
|
|
|
necessary to enable the UltraBay device (e.g. call idectl).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The contents of the /proc/acpi/ibm/bay file shows the current status
|
|
|
|
of the UltraBay, as provided by the ACPI framework.

EXPERIMENTAL warm eject support on the 600e/x, A22p and A3x (To use
|
|
|
|
this feature, you need to supply the experimental=1 parameter when
|
|
|
|
loading the module):
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These models do not have a button near the UltraBay device to request
|
|
|
|
a hot eject but rather require the laptop to be put to sleep
|
|
|
|
(suspend-to-ram) before the bay device is ejected or inserted).
|
|
|
|
The sequence of steps to eject the device is as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo eject > /proc/acpi/ibm/bay
|
|
|
|
put the ThinkPad to sleep
|
|
|
|
remove the drive
|
|
|
|
resume from sleep
|
|
|
|
cat /proc/acpi/ibm/bay should show that the drive was removed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On the A3x, both the UltraBay 2000 and UltraBay Plus devices are
|
|
|
|
supported. Use "eject2" instead of "eject" for the second bay.

|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
Note: the UltraBay eject support on the 600e/x, A22p and A3x is
|
|
|
|
EXPERIMENTAL and may not work as expected. USE WITH CAUTION!

This feature is mostly used internally by the ACPI firmware to keep the legacy
|
|
|
|
CMOS NVRAM bits in sync with the current machine state, and to record this
|
|
|
|
state so that the ThinkPad will retain such settings across reboots.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some of these commands actually perform actions in some ThinkPad models, but
|
|
|
|
this is expected to disappear more and more in newer models. As an example, in
|
|
|
|
a T43 and in a X40, commands 12 and 13 still control the ThinkLight state for
|
|
|
|
real, but commands 0 to 2 don't control the mixer anymore (they have been
|
|
|
|
phased out) and just update the NVRAM.

The range of valid cmos command numbers is 0 to 21, but not all have an

The cmos command interface is prone to firmware split-brain problems, as
|
2007-07-18 22:45:33 -04:00
|
|
|
in newer ThinkPads it is just a compatibility layer. Do not use it, it is
|

|
exported just as a debug tool.

2005-04-16 18:20:36 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some of the LED indicators can be controlled through this feature. The
|
|
|
|
available commands are:
|
|
|
|
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
echo '<led number> on' >/proc/acpi/ibm/led

|
|
|
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
The <led number> range is 0 to 7. The set of LEDs that can be
|
|
|
|
controlled varies from model to model. Here is the mapping on the X40:
|
2005-04-16 18:20:36 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
0 - power
|
|

1 - battery (orange)
|
|
|
|
2 - battery (green)
|
|
|
|
3 - UltraBase
|
|
|
|
4 - UltraBay
|
|
|
|
7 - standby
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All of the above can be turned on and off and can be made to blink.

2005-04-16 18:20:36 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The BEEP method is used internally by the ACPI firmware to provide
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
audible alerts in various situations. This feature allows the same
|
2005-04-16 18:20:36 -04:00
|
|
|
sounds to be triggered manually.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The commands are non-negative integer numbers:
|
|
|
|
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
echo <number> >/proc/acpi/ibm/beep
|
2005-04-16 18:20:36 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
The valid <number> range is 0 to 17. Not all numbers trigger sounds
|
|
|
|
and the sounds vary from model to model. Here is the behavior on the
|
|
|
|
X40:
|
2005-04-16 18:20:36 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
0 - stop a sound in progress (but use 17 to stop 16)
|
|
|
|
2 - two beeps, pause, third beep ("low battery")
|
2005-04-16 18:20:36 -04:00
|
|
|
3 - single beep
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
4 - high, followed by low-pitched beep ("unable")
|
2005-04-16 18:20:36 -04:00
|
|
|
5 - single beep
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
6 - very high, followed by high-pitched beep ("AC/DC")
|
2005-04-16 18:20:36 -04:00
|
|
|
7 - high-pitched beep
|
|
|
|
9 - three short beeps
|
|
|
|
10 - very long beep
|
|
|
|
12 - low-pitched beep
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
15 - three high-pitched beeps repeating constantly, stop with 0
|
|
|
|
16 - one medium-pitched beep repeating constantly, stop with 17
|
|

Most ThinkPads include six or more separate temperature sensors but only
|
|
|
|
expose the CPU temperature through the standard ACPI methods. This
|
|
|
|
feature shows readings from up to eight different sensors on older
|
|
|
|
ThinkPads, and up to sixteen different sensors on newer ThinkPads.
|
2006-11-24 08:47:08 -05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example, on the X40, a typical output may be:
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
temperatures: 42 42 45 41 36 -128 33 -128
|
|
|
|
|
2007-07-18 22:45:46 -04:00
|
|
|
On the T43/p, a typical output may be:
|
2006-11-24 08:47:08 -05:00
|
|
|
temperatures: 48 48 36 52 38 -128 31 -128 48 52 48 -128 -128 -128 -128 -128
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The mapping of thermal sensors to physical locations varies depending on
|
|
|
|
system-board model (and thus, on ThinkPad model).
|
|
|

http://thinkwiki.org/wiki/Thermal_Sensors is a public wiki page that

This feature can be used to determine the register holding the fan
|
|
|
|
speed on some models. To do that, do the following:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- make sure the battery is fully charged
|
|
|
|
- make sure the fan is running
|
|
|
|
- run 'cat /proc/acpi/ibm/ecdump' several times, once per second or so
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The first step makes sure various charging-related values don't
|
|
|
|
vary. The second ensures that the fan-related values do vary, since
|
|
|
|
the fan speed fluctuates a bit. The third will (hopefully) mark the
|
|
|
|
fan register with a star:

Another set of values that varies often is the temperature
|
|
|
|
readings. Since temperatures don't change vary fast, you can take
|
|
|
|
several quick dumps to eliminate them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can use a similar method to figure out the meaning of other
|
|
|
|
embedded controller registers - e.g. make sure nothing else changes
|
|
|
|
except the charging or discharging battery to determine which
|
|
|
|
registers contain the current battery capacity, etc. If you experiment
|
|
|
|
with this, do send me your results (including some complete dumps with
|
|
|
|
a description of the conditions when they were taken.)

LCD brightness control
|

sysfs backlight device "thinkpad_screen"
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This feature allows software control of the LCD brightness on ThinkPad
|
2007-04-24 10:48:20 -04:00
|
|
|
models which don't have a hardware brightness slider.
|
|
|
|
|
2007-10-30 15:46:20 -04:00
|
|
|
It has some limitations: the LCD backlight cannot be actually turned on or
|
|
|
|
off by this interface, and in many ThinkPad models, the "dim while on
|
|
|
|
battery" functionality will be enabled by the BIOS when this interface is
|
|
|
|
used, and cannot be controlled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On IBM (and some of the earlier Lenovo) ThinkPads, the backlight control
|
|
|
|
has eight brightness levels, ranging from 0 to 7. Some of the levels
|
|
|
|
may not be distinct. Later Lenovo models that implement the ACPI
|
|
|
|
display backlight brightness control methods have 16 levels, ranging
|
|
|
|
from 0 to 15.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are two interfaces to the firmware for direct brightness control,
|
|
|
|
EC and CMOS. To select which one should be used, use the
|
|
|
|
brightness_mode module parameter: brightness_mode=1 selects EC mode,
|
|
|
|
brightness_mode=2 selects CMOS mode, brightness_mode=3 selects both EC
|
|
|
|
and CMOS. The driver tries to autodetect which interface to use.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When display backlight brightness controls are available through the
|
|
|
|
standard ACPI interface, it is best to use it instead of this direct
|
2007-10-30 15:46:22 -04:00
|
|
|
ThinkPad-specific interface. The driver will disable its native
|
|
|
|
backlight brightness control interface if it detects that the standard
|
|
|
|
ACPI interface is available in the ThinkPad.
|
2007-07-18 22:45:43 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2007-10-30 16:02:07 -04:00
|
|
|
The brightness_enable module parameter can be used to control whether
|
|
|
|
the LCD brightness control feature will be enabled when available.
|
2007-10-30 15:46:22 -04:00
|
|
|
brightness_enable=0 forces it to be disabled. brightness_enable=1
|
|
|
|
forces it to be enabled when available, even if the standard ACPI
|
|
|
|
interface is also available.

Procfs notes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The available commands are:
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo up >/proc/acpi/ibm/brightness

Sysfs notes:
|
|
|
|
|
2007-10-30 15:46:20 -04:00
|
|
|
The interface is implemented through the backlight sysfs class, which is
|
|
|
|
poorly documented at this time.
|
2007-04-24 10:48:20 -04:00

2007-10-30 15:46:20 -04:00
|
|
|
Locate the thinkpad_screen device under /sys/class/backlight, and inside
|
|
|
|
it there will be the following attributes:
|
2007-04-24 10:48:20 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
max_brightness:
|
|
|
|
Reads the maximum brightness the hardware can be set to.
|
|
|
|
The minimum is always zero.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
actual_brightness:
|
|
|
|
Reads what brightness the screen is set to at this instant.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
brightness:
|
2007-10-30 15:46:20 -04:00
|
|
|
Writes request the driver to change brightness to the
|
|
|
|
given value. Reads will tell you what brightness the
|
|
|
|
driver is trying to set the display to when "power" is set
|
|
|
|
to zero and the display has not been dimmed by a kernel
|
|
|
|
power management event.
|
2007-04-24 10:48:20 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
power:
|
2007-10-30 15:46:20 -04:00
|
|
|
power management mode, where 0 is "display on", and 1 to 3
|
|
|
|
will dim the display backlight to brightness level 0
|
|
|
|
because thinkpad-acpi cannot really turn the backlight
|
|
|
|
off. Kernel power management events can temporarily
|
|
|
|
increase the current power management level, i.e. they can
|
|
|
|
dim the display.

Volume control -- /proc/acpi/ibm/volume

|
---------------------------------------
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This feature allows volume control on ThinkPad models which don't have
|
|
|
|
a hardware volume knob. The available commands are:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo up >/proc/acpi/ibm/volume
|
|
|
|
echo down >/proc/acpi/ibm/volume
|
|
|
|
echo mute >/proc/acpi/ibm/volume
|
|
|
|
echo 'level <level>' >/proc/acpi/ibm/volume
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The <level> number range is 0 to 15 although not all of them may be
|
|
|
|
distinct. The unmute the volume after the mute command, use either the
|
|
|
|
up or down command (the level command will not unmute the volume).
|
|
|
|
The current volume level and mute state is shown in the file.

This feature attempts to show the current fan speed, control mode and
|
|
|
|
other fan data that might be available. The speed is read directly
|
|
|
|
from the hardware registers of the embedded controller. This is known
|
2007-04-27 21:00:09 -04:00
|
|
|
to work on later R, T, X and Z series ThinkPads but may show a bogus
|
2006-11-24 08:47:13 -05:00
|
|
|
value on other models.

|
Most ThinkPad fans work in "levels" at the firmware interface. Level 0
|
|
|
|
stops the fan. The higher the level, the higher the fan speed, although
|
|
|
|
adjacent levels often map to the same fan speed. 7 is the highest
|
|
|
|
level, where the fan reaches the maximum recommended speed.
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2007-04-24 10:48:17 -04:00
|
|
|
Level "auto" means the EC changes the fan level according to some
|
|
|
|
internal algorithm, usually based on readings from the thermal sensors.
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2007-04-24 10:48:17 -04:00
|
|
|
There is also a "full-speed" level, also known as "disengaged" level.
|
|
|
|
In this level, the EC disables the speed-locked closed-loop fan control,
|
|
|
|
and drives the fan as fast as it can go, which might exceed hardware
|
|
|
|
limits, so use this level with caution.
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2007-04-24 10:48:17 -04:00
|
|
|
The fan usually ramps up or down slowly from one speed to another, and
|
|
|
|
it is normal for the EC to take several seconds to react to fan
|
|
|
|
commands. The full-speed level may take up to two minutes to ramp up to
|
|
|
|
maximum speed, and in some ThinkPads, the tachometer readings go stale
|
|
|
|
while the EC is transitioning to the full-speed level.
|

2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00

|
|
WARNING WARNING WARNING: do not leave the fan disabled unless you are
|
2006-11-24 08:47:13 -05:00
|
|
|
monitoring all of the temperature sensor readings and you are ready to
|
|
|
|
enable it if necessary to avoid overheating.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
An enabled fan in level "auto" may stop spinning if the EC decides the
|
|
|
|
ThinkPad is cool enough and doesn't need the extra airflow. This is
|
2007-10-19 19:34:40 -04:00
|
|
|
normal, and the EC will spin the fan up if the various thermal readings
|
2006-11-24 08:47:13 -05:00
|
|
|
rise too much.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On the X40, this seems to depend on the CPU and HDD temperatures.
|
|
|
|
Specifically, the fan is turned on when either the CPU temperature
|
|
|
|
climbs to 56 degrees or the HDD temperature climbs to 46 degrees. The
|
|
|
|
fan is turned off when the CPU temperature drops to 49 degrees and the
|
|
|
|
HDD temperature drops to 41 degrees. These thresholds cannot
|
|
|
|
currently be controlled.
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-24 10:48:17 -04:00
|
|
|
The ThinkPad's ACPI DSDT code will reprogram the fan on its own when
|
|
|
|
certain conditions are met. It will override any fan programming done
|
|
|
|
through thinkpad-acpi.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The thinkpad-acpi kernel driver can be programmed to revert the fan
|
|
|
|
level to a safe setting if userspace does not issue one of the procfs
|
|
|
|
fan commands: "enable", "disable", "level" or "watchdog", or if there
|
|
|
|
are no writes to pwm1_enable (or to pwm1 *if and only if* pwm1_enable is
|
|
|
|
set to 1, manual mode) within a configurable amount of time of up to
|
|
|
|
120 seconds. This functionality is called fan safety watchdog.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that the watchdog timer stops after it enables the fan. It will be
|
|
|
|
rearmed again automatically (using the same interval) when one of the
|
|
|
|
above mentioned fan commands is received. The fan watchdog is,
|
|
|
|
therefore, not suitable to protect against fan mode changes made through
|
|
|
|
means other than the "enable", "disable", and "level" procfs fan
|
|
|
|
commands, or the hwmon fan control sysfs interface.
|
|

echo enable >/proc/acpi/ibm/fan
|
|
|
|
echo disable >/proc/acpi/ibm/fan
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Placing a fan on level 0 is the same as disabling it. Enabling a fan
|
|
|
|
will try to place it in a safe level if it is too slow or disabled.
|
|
|
|
|
2006-11-24 08:47:13 -05:00
|
|
|
The fan level can be controlled with the command:
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2007-04-24 10:48:17 -04:00
|
|
|
echo 'level <level>' > /proc/acpi/ibm/fan
|
2006-11-24 08:47:13 -05:00
|
|
|
|
2007-04-24 10:48:17 -04:00
|
|
|
Where <level> is an integer from 0 to 7, or one of the words "auto" or
|
|
|
|
"full-speed" (without the quotes). Not all ThinkPads support the "auto"
|
|
|
|
and "full-speed" levels. The driver accepts "disengaged" as an alias for
|
|
|
|
"full-speed", and reports it as "disengaged" for backwards
|
|
|
|
compatibility.
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On the X31 and X40 (and ONLY on those models), the fan speed can be
|
2007-04-24 10:48:17 -04:00
|
|
|
controlled to a certain degree. Once the fan is running, it can be
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
forced to run faster or slower with the following command:
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-24 10:48:17 -04:00
|
|
|
echo 'speed <speed>' > /proc/acpi/ibm/fan
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2007-04-24 10:48:17 -04:00
|
|
|
The sustainable range of fan speeds on the X40 appears to be from about
|
|
|
|
3700 to about 7350. Values outside this range either do not have any
|
|
|
|
effect or the fan speed eventually settles somewhere in that range. The
|
|
|
|
fan cannot be stopped or started with this command. This functionality
|
|
|
|
is incomplete, and not available through the sysfs interface.
|
2005-08-17 00:00:00 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2007-04-24 10:48:17 -04:00
|
|
|
To program the safety watchdog, use the "watchdog" command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo 'watchdog <interval in seconds>' > /proc/acpi/ibm/fan
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to disable the watchdog, use 0 as the interval.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sysfs notes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The sysfs interface follows the hwmon subsystem guidelines for the most
|
|
|
|
part, and the exception is the fan safety watchdog.
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-27 21:00:13 -04:00
|
|
|
Writes to any of the sysfs attributes may return the EINVAL error if
|
|
|
|
that operation is not supported in a given ThinkPad or if the parameter
|
|
|
|
is out-of-bounds, and EPERM if it is forbidden. They may also return
|
|
|
|
EINTR (interrupted system call), and EIO (I/O error while trying to talk
|
|
|
|
to the firmware).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features not yet implemented by the driver return ENOSYS.
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-24 10:48:17 -04:00
|
|
|
hwmon device attribute pwm1_enable:
|
|
|
|
0: PWM offline (fan is set to full-speed mode)
|
|
|
|
1: Manual PWM control (use pwm1 to set fan level)
|
|
|
|
2: Hardware PWM control (EC "auto" mode)
|

|
|
3: reserved (Software PWM control, not implemented yet)
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-27 21:00:13 -04:00
|
|
|
Modes 0 and 2 are not supported by all ThinkPads, and the
|
|
|
|
driver is not always able to detect this. If it does know a
|
|
|
|
mode is unsupported, it will return -EINVAL.
|
2007-04-24 10:48:17 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
hwmon device attribute pwm1:
|
|
|
|
Fan level, scaled from the firmware values of 0-7 to the hwmon
|
|
|
|
scale of 0-255. 0 means fan stopped, 255 means highest normal
|
|
|
|
speed (level 7).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This attribute only commands the fan if pmw1_enable is set to 1
|
|
|
|
(manual PWM control).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
hwmon device attribute fan1_input:
|
|
|
|
Fan tachometer reading, in RPM. May go stale on certain
|
|
|
|
ThinkPads while the EC transitions the PWM to offline mode,
|
|
|
|
which can take up to two minutes. May return rubbish on older
|
|
|
|
ThinkPads.
|
|
|

2007-09-25 05:38:03 -04:00
|
|
|
hwmon driver attribute fan_watchdog:
|
2007-04-24 10:48:17 -04:00
|
|
|
Fan safety watchdog timer interval, in seconds. Minimum is
|
|
|
|
1 second, maximum is 120 seconds. 0 disables the watchdog.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To stop the fan: set pwm1 to zero, and pwm1_enable to 1.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To start the fan in a safe mode: set pwm1_enable to 2. If that fails
|
2007-04-27 21:00:13 -04:00
|
|
|
with EINVAL, try to set pwm1_enable to 1 and pwm1 to at least 128 (255
|
|
|
|
would be the safest choice, though).

|
2006-09-22 06:19:16 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This feature is marked EXPERIMENTAL because the implementation
|
|
|
|
directly accesses hardware registers and may not work as expected. USE
|
|
|
|
WITH CAUTION! To use this feature, you need to supply the
|
|
|
|
experimental=1 parameter when loading the module.
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-27 21:00:17 -04:00
|
|
|
This feature shows the presence and current state of a W-WAN (Sierra
|
|
|
|
Wireless EV-DO) device.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It was tested on a Lenovo Thinkpad X60. It should probably work on other
|
|
|
|
Thinkpad models which come with this module installed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Procfs notes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the W-WAN card is installed, the following commands can be used:
|
2006-09-22 06:19:16 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo enable > /proc/acpi/ibm/wan
|
|
|
|
echo disable > /proc/acpi/ibm/wan
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-27 21:00:17 -04:00
|
|
|
Sysfs notes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the W-WAN card is installed, it can be enabled /
|
2007-05-30 19:50:14 -04:00
|
|
|
disabled through the "wwan_enable" thinkpad-acpi device
|
2007-04-27 21:00:17 -04:00
|
|
|
attribute, and its current status can also be queried.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
enable:
|
|
|
|
0: disables WWAN card / WWAN card is disabled
|
|
|
|
1: enables WWAN card / WWAN card is enabled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: this interface will be probably be superseeded by the
|
2007-05-30 19:50:14 -04:00
|
|
|
generic rfkill class, so it is NOT to be considered stable yet.

Multiple Commands, Module Parameters
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------
|
2005-04-16 18:20:36 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Multiple commands can be written to the proc files in one shot by
|
|
|
|
separating them with commas, for example:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo enable,0xffff > /proc/acpi/ibm/hotkey
|
|
|
|
echo lcd_disable,crt_enable > /proc/acpi/ibm/video
|
|
|
|
|
2007-03-29 00:58:43 -04:00
|
|
|
Commands can also be specified when loading the thinkpad-acpi module,
|
|
|
|
for example:
|
2005-04-16 18:20:36 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2007-03-29 00:58:43 -04:00
|
|
|
modprobe thinkpad_acpi hotkey=enable,0xffff video=auto_disable
|
2005-04-16 18:20:36 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2007-04-21 10:08:30 -04:00
|
|
|
Enabling debugging output
|
|
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
2007-10-19 19:30:25 -04:00
|
|
|
The module takes a debug parameter which can be used to selectively
|
2007-04-21 10:08:30 -04:00
|
|
|
enable various classes of debugging output, for example:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
modprobe ibm_acpi debug=0xffff
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
will enable all debugging output classes. It takes a bitmask, so
|
|
|
|
to enable more than one output class, just add their values.
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-21 10:08:32 -04:00
|
|
|
Debug bitmask Description
|
|
|
|
0x0001 Initialization and probing
|
|
|
|
0x0002 Removal
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-21 10:08:30 -04:00
|
|
|
There is also a kernel build option to enable more debugging
|
|
|
|
information, which may be necessary to debug driver problems.
|
2007-04-21 10:08:34 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2007-04-24 10:48:13 -04:00
|
|
|
The level of debugging information output by the driver can be changed
|
|
|
|
at runtime through sysfs, using the driver attribute debug_level. The
|
|
|
|
attribute takes the same bitmask as the debug module parameter above.
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-21 10:08:34 -04:00
|
|
|
Force loading of module
|
|
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If thinkpad-acpi refuses to detect your ThinkPad, you can try to specify
|
|
|
|
the module parameter force_load=1. Regardless of whether this works or
|
|
|
|
not, please contact ibm-acpi-devel@lists.sourceforge.net with a report.

Sysfs interface changelog:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
0x000100: Initial sysfs support, as a single platform driver and
|
|
|
|
device.
|
2007-07-18 22:45:32 -04:00
|
|
|
0x000200: Hot key support for 32 hot keys, and radio slider switch
|
|
|
|
support.
|
2007-07-18 22:45:39 -04:00
|
|
|
0x010000: Hot keys are now handled by default over the input
|
|
|
|
layer, the radio switch generates input event EV_RADIO,
|
|
|
|
and the driver enables hot key handling by default in
|
|
|
|
the firmware.
|
2007-09-25 05:38:03 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
0x020000: ABI fix: added a separate hwmon platform device and
|
|
|
|
driver, which must be located by name (thinkpad)
|
|
|
|
and the hwmon class for libsensors4 (lm-sensors 3)
|
|
|
|
compatibility. Moved all hwmon attributes to this
|
|
|
|
new platform device.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
0x020100: Marker for thinkpad-acpi with hot key NVRAM polling
|
|
|
|
support. If you must, use it to know you should not
|
|
|
|
start an userspace NVRAM poller (allows to detect when
|
|
|
|
NVRAM is compiled out by the user because it is
|
|
|
|
unneeded/undesired in the first place).
|
|
|
|
0x020101: Marker for thinkpad-acpi with hot key NVRAM polling
|
|
|
|
and proper hotkey_mask semanthics (version 8 of the
|
|
|
|
NVRAM polling patch). Some development snapshots of
|
|
|
|
0.18 had an earlier version that did strange things
|
|
|
|
to hotkey_mask.
