Lenovo WMI Interface Other Mode Driver (lenovo-wmi-other)
===========================================================

Introduction
============
Lenovo WMI Other Mode interface is broken up into multiple GUIDs,
The primary Other Mode interface provides advanced power tuning features
such as Package Power Tracking (PPT). It is paired with multiple data block
GUIDs that provide context for the various methods.


Other Mode
----------

WMI GUID ``DC2A8805-3A8C-41BA-A6F7-092E0089CD3B``

The Other Mode WMI interface uses the firmware_attributes class to expose
various WMI attributes provided by the interface in the sysfs. This enables
CPU and GPU power limit tuning as well as various other attributes for
devices that fall under the "Gaming Series" of Lenovo devices. Each
attribute exposed by the Other Mode interface has corresponding
capability data blocks which allow the driver to probe details about the
attribute. Each attribute has multiple pages, one for each of the platform
profiles managed by the Gamezone interface. Attributes are exposed in sysfs
under the following path:

::

  /sys/class/firmware-attributes/lenovo-wmi-other/attributes/<attribute>/

LENOVO_CAPABILITY_DATA_01
-------------------------

WMI GUID ``7A8F5407-CB67-4D6E-B547-39B3BE018154``

The LENOVO_CAPABILITY_DATA_01 interface provides information on various
power limits of integrated CPU and GPU components.

Each attribute has the following properties:
 - current_value
 - default_value
 - display_name
 - max_value
 - min_value
 - scalar_increment
 - type

The following attributes are implemented:
 - ppt_pl1_spl: Platform Profile Tracking Sustained Power Limit
 - ppt_pl2_sppt: Platform Profile Tracking Slow Package Power Tracking
 - ppt_pl3_fppt: Platform Profile Tracking Fast Package Power Tracking


WMI interface description
=========================

The WMI interface description can be decoded from the embedded binary MOF (bmof)
data using the `bmfdec <https://github.com/pali/bmfdec>`_ utility:
