Taking another look at the vivobook stuff because of this series this
pre-existing code stands out to me:
static int fan_curve_get_factory_default(struct asus_wmi *asus, u32 fan_dev)
{
struct fan_curve_data *curves;
u8 buf[FAN_CURVE_BUF_LEN];
int err, fan_idx;
u8 mode = 0;
if (asus->throttle_thermal_policy_dev)
mode = asus->throttle_thermal_policy_mode;
/* DEVID_<C/G>PU_FAN_CURVE is switched for OVERBOOST vs SILENT */
if (mode == 2)
mode = 1;
else if (mode == 1)
mode = 2;
Since the vivobook has silent and overboost swapped I wonder if we should
do this on vivobook to ?
Also note that patch 2/2 of this series impacts this code too. Until
now we were storing the swapped vivobook values in asus->throttle_thermal_policy_dev
and then here we are swapping them a second time, in essence using unswapped
non vivobook values here due to the double swapping.
Where as after Armin's changes from 2/2 we now store unswapped standard
asus laptop values in asus->throttle_thermal_policy_dev and swap them
here, using the same mode values as with normal asus laptops on vivobooks
now ( mode is swapped from non vivo throttle_thermal_policy_dev values).
Does anyone have any insight what we should do here ?
Regards,
Hans
