rfkill - radio frequency (RF) connector kill switch support For details to this subsystem look at Documentation/rfkill.txt. For the deprecated /sys/class/rfkill/*/claim knobs of this interface look in Documentation/ABI/removed/sysfs-class-rfkill. What: /sys/class/rfkill Date: 09-Jul-2007 KernelVersion: v2.6.22 Contact: linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org, Description: The rfkill class subsystem folder. Each registered rfkill driver is represented by an rfkillX subfolder (X being an integer >= 0). What: /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill[0-9]+/name Date: 09-Jul-2007 KernelVersion v2.6.22 Contact: linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org Description: Name assigned by driver to this key (interface or driver name). Values: arbitrary string. What: /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill[0-9]+/type Date: 09-Jul-2007 KernelVersion v2.6.22 Contact: linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org Description: Driver type string ("wlan", "bluetooth", etc). Values: See include/linux/rfkill.h. What: /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill[0-9]+/persistent Date: 09-Jul-2007 KernelVersion v2.6.22 Contact: linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org Description: Whether the soft blocked state is initialised from non-volatile storage at startup. Values: A numeric value. 0: false 1: true What: /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill[0-9]+/state Date: 09-Jul-2007 KernelVersion v2.6.22 Contact: linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org Description: Current state of the transmitter. This file was scheduled to be removed in 2014, but due to its large number of users it will be sticking around for a bit longer. Despite it being marked as stable, the newer "hard" and "soft" interfaces should be preferred, since it is not possible to express the 'soft and hard block' state of the rfkill driver through this interface. There will likely be another attempt to remove it in the future. Values: A numeric value. 0: RFKILL_STATE_SOFT_BLOCKED transmitter is turned off by software 1: RFKILL_STATE_UNBLOCKED transmitter is (potentially) active 2: RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED transmitter is forced off by something outside of the driver's control. What: /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill[0-9]+/hard Date: 12-March-2010 KernelVersion v2.6.34 Contact: linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org Description: Current hardblock state. This file is read only. Values: A numeric value. 0: inactive The transmitter is (potentially) active. 1: active The transmitter is forced off by something outside of the driver's control. What: /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill[0-9]+/soft Date: 12-March-2010 KernelVersion v2.6.34 Contact: linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org Description: Current softblock state. This file is read and write. Values: A numeric value. 0: inactive The transmitter is (potentially) active. 1: active The transmitter is turned off by software. |
