Subject: Re: [PATCH 0/9] platform/x86: lenovo-wmi-{other,capdata,helpers}: Improve robustness on buggy firmware
Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2026 00:39:01 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260928190901.1369497-1-navonjohnlukose@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <55927121-62DB-43D7-B1BD-19519A775659@rong.moe>
A correction to my earlier report. This firmware does declare
LENOVO_CAPABILITY_DATA_01 in _WDG (object B1, 55 instances), but there
is no WQB1 method. The WMI core drops the block with "WQB1 data block
query control method not found" and never creates a device, so the
register-on-WMI-error and stub detection patches in this series never
run here. LENOVO_DISCRETE_DATA (B2) is declared without a WQB2 in the
same way.
Making capdata01 a sub-component should cover this machine. I'll test
the refreshed series here when it is posted.
