[PATCH] platform/x86: asus-wmi: Fix driver not binding when fan curve control probe fails

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Before this commit fan_curve_check_present() was trying to not cause
the probe to fail on devices without fan curve control by testing for
known error codes returned by asus_wmi_evaluate_method_buf().

Checking for ENODATA or ENODEV, with the latter being returned by this
function when an ACPI integer with a value of ASUS_WMI_UNSUPPORTED_METHOD
is returned. But for other ACPI integer returns this function just returns
them as is, including the ASUS_WMI_DSTS_UNKNOWN_BIT value of 2.

On the Asus U36SD ASUS_WMI_DSTS_UNKNOWN_BIT gets returned, leading to:

  asus-nb-wmi: probe of asus-nb-wmi failed with error 2

Instead of playing whack a mole with error codes here, simply treat all
errors as there not being any fan curves, fixing the driver no longer
loading on the Asus U36SD laptop.
