[patch] Reporting the lid status using INPUT

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

 



Len,

* user shuts lid, initiates suspend
{lid is reported down}
* user opens lid, resume completes

But the lid INPUT up event is not sent. This works if you don't initiate
suspend when you shut the lid (blank screen for instance) -- so I know
my hardware is okay.

I see:
input_report_switch(input, SW_LID, !state);

in response to an event, but in a resume hook we should probably do
acpi_evaluate_integer(handle, "_LID", NULL, &state) and then send an
event, just so userspace is aware of what the state of the panel is.

If switch state matches to what input layer thinks it is the event will
not be sent.

On resume we need to refresh the lid status as we will not get an event if
the lid opening was what triggered the suspend.
This manifests itself in users never getting a "lid open" event when a
suspend happens because of lid close on hardware that supports wake on
lid open. This makes userspace gets very confused indeed.
Patch attached forces a check of the lid status in the resume handler.
