Subject: linux-next: manual merge of the trivial tree with the wireless tree
Date: Wed, 3 Jun 2009 15:22:47 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090603152247.b52f552e.sfr@canb.auug.org.au> (raw)

Hi Jiri,

Today's linux-next merge of the trivial tree got a conflict in
Documentation/rfkill.txt between commit
c6d660ce29295d344fcdc3654274b4a0aad1a9c8 ("rfkill: rewrite") from the
wireless tree and commit 9976d9daf91d146724ad9c336f74c60d2195c386
("trivial: Miscellaneous documentation typo fixes") from the trivial tree.

I just used the version from the wireless tree since it has been
basically rewritten there (except I applied the "transmiter" to
"transmitter" fix - see below).  Maybe the part of the trivial tree patch
that affects this file should be dropped.

Cheers,

 -Both the "state" and "claim" entries are also writable. For the "state" entry
 -this means that when 1 or 0 is written, the device rfkill state (if not yet in

 -
 -For the "claim" entry writing 1 to it means that the kernel no longer handles

 -A note about input devices and EV_SW events:
 -
 -In order to know the current state of an input device switch (like
 -SW_RFKILL_ALL), you will need to use an IOCTL.  That information is not
 -available through sysfs in a generic way at this time, and it is not available
 -through the rfkill class AT ALL.

 +	claim: 0: Kernel handles events (currently always reads that value)
 +
 +rfkill devices also issue uevents (with an action of "change"), with the
 +following environment variables set:
 +
 +RFKILL_NAME
 +RFKILL_STATE
 +RFKILL_TYPE
 +
 +The contents of these variables corresponds to the "name", "state" and
 +"type" sysfs files explained above.
