Public bug reported:
I've been working with a user that has a Lenovo Legion Y530-15ICH where
booting Ubuntu 18.10 (kernel 4.18.0-8) results in the radios being
disabled by the platform driver "ideapad-laptop". Unloading or
blacklisting the module solves the issue but disables other platform
ACPI interfaces.
The system has the most recent firmware:
[ 0.000000] DMI: LENOVO 81FV/LNVNB161216, BIOS 8JCN44WW 08/13/2018
The wifi device is:
00:14.3 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Wireless-AC 9560
[Jefferson Peak] [8086:a370] (rev 10)
Subsystem: Intel Corporation Wireless-AC 9560 [Jefferson Peak]
[8086:0034]
Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi
We investigated the issue extensively and built the module with
additional logic without solving the issue. It is well-known that some
Lenovo models do not have a separate hardware radio kill switch (this
model uses hot-keys Fn + F7) and need to use a DMI match to disable the
rfkill logic.
We used dmidecode to get the correct Version string:
Handle 0x0001, DMI type 1, 27 bytes
System Information
Manufacturer: LENOVO
Product Name: 81FV
Version: Lenovo Legion Y530-15ICH
Serial Number: PF18CD10
UUID: A44F71C1-5E3D-11E8-9379-8C16458E3F9D
Wake-up Type: Power Switch
SKU Number: LENOVO_MT_81FV_BU_idea_FM_Legion Y530-15ICH

and added it to no_hw_rfkill_list[]:
{
.ident = "Lenovo Legion Y530-15ICH",
.matches = {
DMI_MATCH(DMI_SYS_VENDOR, "LENOVO"),
DMI_MATCH(DMI_PRODUCT_VERSION, "Lenovo Legion Y530-15ICH"),
},
},
However, rfkill was still listing the platform devices "ideapad_wlan"
and "ideapad_bluetooth":
/sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/hard=1
/sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/index=0
/sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/name=ideapad_wlan

We then added printk(KERN_NOTICE ... in the module's
platform_driver.probe function ideapad_acpi_add() both at entry and
later to report the DMI and status of the hardware switch control flag:

return ret;
And this revealed that the function is not being called - the
KERN_NOTICE messages do not appear in 'dmesg' output.
This suggests:
static const struct acpi_device_id ideapad_device_ids[] = {
{ "VPC2004", 0},
is not being matched via platform_driver.driver.acpi_match_table =
ACPI_PTR(ideapad_device_ids),
We then decompiled the ACPI DSDT and confirmed that _HID is being set to
VPC2004:
grep -C4 VPC2004 dsdt.dsl
Scope (\_SB.PCI0.LPCB.EC0)
{
Device (VPC0)
{
Name (_HID, "VPC2004") // _HID: Hardware ID
Name (_UID, Zero) // _UID: Unique ID
Name (_VPC, 0xFC0DF516)
Name (VPCD, Zero)
Method (_STA, 0, NotSerialized) // _STA: Status
At this point we're not sure what the next step should be. Wifi works correctly
with the module blacklisted but it would be good to fix this properly.
