Drivers like thinkpad_acpi and ideapad_laptop call the platform_profile_notify() helper when the profile is changed by hardware (the embedded-controller/EC) in response to an EC handled hotkey. This allows userspace to monitor for such changes by polling for POLLPRI on the platform_profile sysfs file. But the profile can also be changed underneath a userspace program monitoring it by anonther userspace program storing a new value. Add a sysfs_notify() call to platform_profile_store(), so that userspace programs monitoring for changes also get notified in this case. Also update the documentation to document that POLLPRI polling can be used to watch for changes. Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Description: This file contains a space-separated list of profiles supported for this device.

Drivers must use the following standard profile-names:

|
|
==================== ========================================
|
|
low-power Low power consumption
|
|
cool Cooler operation
|
|
quiet Quieter operation
|
|
balanced Balance between low power consumption
|
|
and performance

balanced-performance Balance between performance and low

power consumption with a slight bias

towards performance
|
|
performance High performance operation

Userspace may expect drivers to offer more than one of these
|
|
standard profile names.

Description: Reading this file gives the current selected profile for this
|
|
device. Writing this file with one of the strings from
|
|
platform_profile_choices changes the profile to the new value.

|
|
This file can be monitored for changes by polling for POLLPRI,
|
|
POLLPRI will be signalled on any changes, independent of those
|
|
changes coming from a userspace write; or coming from another
|
|
source such as e.g. a hotkey triggered profile change handled
|
|
either directly by the embedded-controller or fully handled
|
|
inside the kernel.
