From 0456c66f4e905e1ca839318219c770988b47975c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hans de Goede Date: Sat, 19 Apr 2014 20:39:35 -0700 Subject: Input: serio - add firmware_id sysfs attribute serio devices exposed via platform firmware interfaces such as ACPI may provide additional identifying information of use to userspace. We don't associate the serio devices with the firmware device (we don't set it as parent), so there's no way for userspace to make use of this information. We cannot change the parent for serio devices instantiated though a firmware interface as that would break suspend / resume ordering. Therefore this patch adds a new firmware_id sysfs attribute so that userspace can get a string from there with any additional identifying information the firmware interface may provide.
