[PATCH v2 0/2] hp-wmi: Fix dock status and tablet mode reporting

[Carlo Caione]

From: Carlo Caione <carlo@endlessm.com>

Several HP laptops cannot be put to sleep using the LID since systemd complains
that the system is docked even though the laptop is not even dockable (see
[1]).

This is due to a bug in hp-wmi where the driver is failing to check for errors
before creating the input switches.

[PATCH v2 1/2] hp-wmi: Do not shadow error values

[Carlo Caione]

From: Carlo Caione <carlo@endlessm.com>

All the helper functions (i.e. hp_wmi_dock_state, hp_wmi_tablet_state,
...) using hp_wmi_perform_query to perform an HP WMI query shadow the
returned value in case of error.

We return -EINVAL only when the HP WMI query returns a positive value
(the specific error code) to not mix this up with the actual value
returned by the helper function.

[PATCH v2 2/2] hp-wmi: Fix detection for dock and tablet mode

[Carlo Caione]

From: Carlo Caione <carlo@endlessm.com>

The current driver code is not checking for the error values returned by
'hp_wmi_dock_state()' and 'hp_wmi_tablet_state()' before passing the
returned values down to 'input_report_switch()'. This error code is
being translated to '1' in the input subsystem, reporting the wrong
status.

The biggest problem caused by this issue is that several laptops are
wrongly reported by the driver as docked, preventing them to be put to
sleep using the LID (and in most cases they are not even dockable).

With this patch we create the report switches only if we are able to
read the dock and tablet mode status correctly from ACPI.

So Andy is correct in that we try to avoid shadowing error codes where possible.
I accepted v1 of this series because it fixed an existing problem in a way
consistent with the existing code.

Since v1 is already in for-next, let's consider the following a subsequent
cleanup. Would you please create a new patch to address the shadowing error code
issues on top of the v1 patch series.

Thanks,

No problem. On its way.
