2019-03-07platform/x86: wmi-bmof: use MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() instead of MODULE_ALIAS()Mattias Jacobsson1-1/+1
WMI drivers can if they have specified an array of struct wmi_device_id use the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() macro to automatically generate the appropriate MODULE_ALIAS() output. Thus avoiding to keep both the array of struct wmi_device_id and the MODULE_ALIAS() declaration(s) in sync. Change driver to use MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() instead of MODULE_ALIAS().

2017-06-06platform/x86: wmi-bmof: New driver to expose embedded Binary WMI MOF metadataDarren Hart (VMware)1-0/+124
Many laptops (and maybe servers?) have embedded WMI Binary MOF metadata. We do not yet have open-source tools for processing the data, although one is in the works thanks to Pali: https://github.com/pali/bmfdec There is currently no interface to get the data in the first place. By exposing it, we facilitate the development of new tools. This is based on the original work of Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org>, but contains several modifications in response to various reviews.
