The ASUS ROG Zephyrus Duo GX651AR generates WMI event 0x5e when the detachable keyboard is attached or detached. This event can be interpreted as a wireless-console event, interfering with normal WLAN key handling.

Add a model-specific quirk to ignore event 0x5e on the GX651AR only. Preserve the existing handling of events 0x5d and 0x5f and leave other ASUS models unchanged.

Tested on the GX651AR with Fedora 44 kernel 7.2.11-200.fc44.x86_64 using a temporary driver module with the KEYBOARD_KEY_5e hwdb override disabled.

Verified that keyboard typing continues to work, Wi-Fi remains enabled during keyboard attach/detach, and evtest no longer reports event 0x5e.

Walkthrough

The change adds a quirk for ASUS ROG Zephyrus Duo GX651AR systems. When enabled, the key filter ignores WLAN-enable event 0x5E before existing WLAN-event remapping.

Changes: GX651AR WLAN event handling

struct quirk_entry gains an ignore_wlan_enable_event field. The GX651AR DMI match selects a quirk configuration with this field enabled.

When the quirk is enabled, the key filter ignores event 0x5E before applying the existing WLAN-event remapping.

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: Low · previous review edbbc

Restore the existing backlight initialization before merging; the WLAN quirk itself is otherwise narrowly scoped.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the subsystem (platform/x86: asus-nb-wmi), the action (ignore), and the specific event (GX651AR event 0x5e). The raw summary describes a GX651AR quirk that discards WMI event 0x5E before WLAN-event remapping, and the objectives describe the same change, so the title matches the main change. It is specific and does not use vague terms. It omits the WLAN context but that detail is not required for the title.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 1 functions across 2 files.

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.
