Subject: [PATCH v2] platform/x86: add Xiaomi WMI key driver
Date: Fri, 23 Oct 2026 02:56:19 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261022185619.40188-1-lucywong2778@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260601151404.93049-1-lucywong2778@gmail.com>
Certain Xiaomi laptops expose extra function keys through a single WMI
event GUID (B74AF83F-8B2F-4069-ACAC-36D176F62FC0). Unlike the existing
xiaomi-wmi driver where each key has its own GUID, here all keys share
one GUID and the event buffer encodes both an event type and a keycode:
buffer[1] = event type
0x02: press/release keys (5 keys with abstract icons)
0x03: firmware-handled toggles (touchpad, Fn lock)
buffer[2] = keycode within that type
The keys with abstract icons are mapped to programmable macro keys for
userspace to bind. The touchpad and Fn lock toggles, as well as the
keyboard backlight level events, are handled by the firmware and are
ignored.

Changes in v2:
- Convert to .notify_new and set .min_event_size
- Ignore firmware-handled backlight and toggle events, which removes the
toggle deduplication state
- Add the missing select INPUT_SPARSEKMAP
- Name the event codes and align the defines
- Add the dev_printk.h include
