2022-03-01rfkill: define rfill_soft_blocked() if !RFKILLBen Dooks
If CONFIG_RFKILL is not set, the Intel WiFi driver will not build the iw_mvm driver part due to the missing rfill_soft_blocked() call. Adding a inline declaration of rfill_soft_blocked() if CONFIG_RFKILL=n fixes the following error: drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mvm/mvm.h: In function 'iwl_mvm_mei_set_sw_rfkill_state': drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mvm/mvm.h:2215:38: error: implicit declaration of function 'rfkill_soft_blocked'; did you mean 'rfkill_blocked'?

2021-12-20rfkill: allow to get the software rfkill stateEmmanuel Grumbach
iwlwifi needs to be able to differentiate between the software rfkill state and the hardware rfkill state. The reason for this is that iwlwifi needs to notify any change in the software rfkill state even when it doesn't own the device (which means even when the hardware rfkill is asserted). In order to be able to know the software rfkill when the host does not own the device, iwlwifi needs to be able to ask the state of the software rfkill ignoring the state of the hardware rfkill.

2020-12-11rfkill: add a reason to the HW rfkill stateEmmanuel Grumbach
The WLAN device may exist yet not be usable. This can happen when the WLAN device is controllable by both the host and some platform internal component. We need some arbritration that is vendor specific, but when the device is not available for the host, we need to reflect this state towards the user space. Add a reason field to the rfkill object (and event) so that userspace can know why the device is in rfkill: because some other platform component currently owns the device, or because the actual hw rfkill signal is asserted. Capable userspace can now determine the reason for the rfkill and possibly do some negotiation on a side band channel using a proprietary protocol to gain ownership on the device in case the device is owned by some other component. When the host gains ownership on the device, the kernel can remove the RFKILL_HARD_BLOCK_NOT_OWNER reason and the hw rfkill state will be off. Then, the userspace can bring the device up and start normal operation. The rfkill_event structure is enlarged to include the additional byte, it is now 9 bytes long. Old user space will ask to read only 8 bytes so that the kernel can know not to feed them with more data. When the user space writes 8 bytes, new kernels will just read what is present in the file descriptor. This new byte is read only from the userspace standpoint anyway. If a new user space uses an old kernel, it'll ask to read 9 bytes but will get only 8, and it'll know that it didn't get the new state. When it'll write 9 bytes, the kernel will again ignore this new byte which is read only from the userspace standpoint.

2012-03-16device.h: audit and cleanup users in main include dirPaul Gortmaker
The <linux/device.h> header includes a lot of stuff, and it in turn gets a lot of use just for the basic "struct device" which appears so often. Clean up the users as follows: 1) For those headers only needing "struct device" as a pointer in fcn args, replace the include with exactly that. 2) For headers not really using anything from device.h, simply delete the include altogether. 3) For headers relying on getting device.h implicitly before being included themselves, now explicitly include device.h 4) For files in which doing #1 or #2 uncovers an implicit dependency on some other header, fix by explicitly adding the required header(s). Any C files that were implicitly relying on device.h to be present have already been dealt with in advance. Total removals from #1 and #2: 51. Total additions coming from #3: 9. Total other implicit dependencies from #4: 7. As of 3.3-rc1, there were 110, so a net removal of 42 gives about a 38% reduction in device.h presence in include/* Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

2009-07-10rfkill: prep for rfkill API changesJohannes Berg
We've designed the /dev/rfkill API in a way that we can increase the event struct by adding members at the end, should it become necessary. To validate the events, userspace and the kernel need to have the proper event size to check for -- when reading from the other end they need to verify that it's at least version 1 of the event API, with the current struct size, so define a constant for that and make the code a little more 'future proof'. Not that I expect that we'll have to change the event size any time soon, but it's better to write the code in a way that lends itself to extending. Due to the current size of the event struct, the code is currently equivalent, but should the event struct ever need to be increased the new code might not need changing.

This information allows userspace to implement a hybrid policy where it can store the rfkill soft-blocked state in platform non-volatile storage if available, and if not then file-based storage can be used. Some users prefer platform non-volatile storage because of the behaviour when dual-booting multiple versions of Linux, or if the rfkill setting is changed in the BIOS setting screens, or if the BIOS responds to wireless-toggle hotkeys itself before the relevant platform driver has been loaded.

2009-06-19rfkill: don't restore software blocked state on persistent devicesAlan Jenkins
The setting of the "persistent" flag is also made more explicit using a new rfkill_init_sw_state() function, instead of special-casing rfkill_set_sw_state() when it is called before registration. Suspend is a bit of a corner case so we try to get away without adding another hack to rfkill-input - it's going to be removed soon. If the state does change over suspend, users will simply have to prod rfkill-input twice in order to toggle the state. Userspace policy agents will be able to implement a more consistent user experience. For example, they can avoid the above problem if they toggle devices individually. Then there would be no "global state" to get out of sync. Currently there are only two rfkill drivers with persistent soft-blocked state. thinkpad-acpi already checks the software state on resume. eeepc-laptop will require modification.

2009-06-10rfkill: don't impose global states on resume (just restore the previous states)Alan Jenkins

2009-06-10rfkill: remove set_global_sw_stateAlan Jenkins
rfkill_set_global_sw_state() (previously rfkill_set_default()) will no longer be exported by the rewritten rfkill core. Instead, platform drivers which can provide persistent soft-rfkill state across power-down/reboot should indicate their initial state by calling rfkill_set_sw_state() before registration. Otherwise, they will be initialized to a default value during registration by a set_block call. We remove existing calls to rfkill_set_sw_state() which happen before registration, since these had no effect in the old model. If these drivers do have persistent state, the calls can be put back (subject to testing :-). This affects hp-wmi and acer-wmi. Drivers with persistent state will affect the global state only if rfkill-input is enabled. This is required, otherwise booting with wireless soft-blocked and pressing the wireless-toggle key once would have no apparent effect. This special case will be removed in future along with rfkill-input, in favour of a more flexible userspace daemon (see Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt). Now rfkill_global_states[n].def is only used to preserve global states over EPO, it is renamed to ".sav".

2009-06-03rfkill: create useful userspace interfaceJohannes Berg
The new code added by this patch will make rfkill create a misc character device /dev/rfkill that userspace can use to control rfkill soft blocks and get status of devices as well as events when the status changes. Using it is very simple -- when you open it you can read a number of times to get the initial state, and every further read blocks (you can poll) on getting the next event from the kernel. The same structure you read is also used when writing to it to change the soft block of a given device, all devices of a given type, or all devices. This also makes CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT selectable again in order to be able to test without it present since its functionality can now be replaced by userspace entirely and distros and users may not want the input part of rfkill interfering with their userspace code. We will also write a userspace daemon to handle all that and consequently add the input code to the feature removal schedule. In order to have rfkilld support both kernels with and without CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT (or new kernels after its eventual removal) we also add an ioctl (that only exists if rfkill-input is present) to disable rfkill-input. It is not very efficient, but at least gives the correct behaviour in all cases.

2008-11-26rfkill: preserve state across suspendHenrique de Moraes Holschuh
The rfkill class API requires that the driver connected to a class call rfkill_force_state() on resume to update the real state of the rfkill controller, OR that it provides a get_state() hook. This means there is potentially a hidden call in the resume code flow that changes rfkill->state (i.e. rfkill_force_state()), so the previous state of the transmitter was being lost. The simplest and most future-proof way to fix this is to explicitly store the pre-sleep state on the rfkill structure, and restore from that on resume.

The current naming of rfkill_state causes a lot of confusion: not only the "kill" in rfkill suggests negative logic, but also the fact that rfkill cannot turn anything on (it can just force something off or stop forcing something off) is often forgotten. Rename RFKILL_STATE_OFF to RFKILL_STATE_SOFT_BLOCKED (transmitter is blocked and will not operate; state can be changed by a toggle_radio request), and RFKILL_STATE_ON to RFKILL_STATE_UNBLOCKED (transmitter is not blocked, and may operate). Also, add a new third state, RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED (transmitter is blocked and will not operate; state cannot be changed through a toggle_radio request), which is used by drivers to indicate a wireless transmiter was blocked by a hardware rfkill line that accepts no overrides. Keep the old names as #defines, but document them as deprecated. This way, drivers can be converted to the new names *and* verified to actually use rfkill correctly one by one.

2008-06-26rfkill: add read-write rfkill switch supportHenrique de Moraes Holschuh
Currently, rfkill support for read/write rfkill switches is hacked through a round-trip over the input layer and rfkill-input to let a driver sync rfkill->state to hardware changes. This is buggy and sub-optimal. It causes real problems. It is best to think of the rfkill class as supporting only write-only switches at the moment. In order to implement the read/write functionality properly: Add a get_state() hook that is called by the class every time it needs to fetch the current state of the switch. Add a call to this hook every time the *current* state of the radio plays a role in a decision. Also add a force_state() method that can be used to forcefully syncronize the class' idea of the current state of the switch. This allows for a faster implementation of the read/write functionality, as a driver which get events on switch changes can avoid the need for a get_state() hook. If the get_state() hook is left as NULL, current behaviour is maintained, so this change is fully backwards compatible with the current rfkill drivers. For hardware that issues events when the rfkill state changes, leave get_state() NULL in the rfkill struct, set the initial state properly before registering with the rfkill class, and use the force_state() method in the driver to keep the rfkill interface up-to-date. get_state() can be called by the class from atomic context. It must not sleep. Signed-off-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@hmh.eng.br> Acked-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Cc: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru> Signed-off-by: John W.

Teach rfkill about wimax radios. Had to define a KEY_WIMAX as a 'key for disabling only wimax radios', as other radio technologies have. This makes sense as hardware has specific keys for disabling specific radios. The RFKILL enabling part is, otherwise, a copy and paste of any other radio technology.

2007-10-10[RFKILL]: Add support for hardware-only rfkill buttonsMichael Buesch
Buttons that work directly on hardware cannot support the "user_claim" functionality. Add a flag to signal this and return -EOPNOTSUPP in this case. b43 is such a device.

2007-10-10[RFKILL]: Move rfkill_switch_all out of global headerIvo van Doorn
rfkill_switch_all shouldn't be called by drivers directly, instead they should send a signal over the input device. To prevent confusion for driver developers, move the function into a rfkill private header. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2007-10-10[RFKILL]: Remove IRDAIvo van Doorn
As Dmitry pointed out earlier, rfkill-input.c doesn't support irda because there are no users and we shouldn't add unrequired KEY_ defines. However, RFKILL_TYPE_IRDA was defined in the rfkill.h header file and would confuse people about whether it is implemented or not. This patch removes IRDA support completely, so it can be added whenever a driver wants the feature. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
