This enables, for example, configuring the charge limit +using the KDE settings GUI. The option is enabled by default when NixOS `>= 24.05` and linux kernel version `>= 6.10`. + +On AMD Framework 13 and 16, before kernel 6.10, additional kernel patches are required for the kernel module to function +properly. Manually setting `hardware.framework.enableKmod = true` will apply the patches, requiring a kernel +recompilation. + ## Support Tools ### fw-ectool diff --git a/framework/kmod.nix b/framework/kmod.nix index a6c30eb..3fc9965 100644 --- a/framework/kmod.nix +++ b/framework/kmod.nix @@ -1,17 +1,42 @@ -{ config, lib, ... }: -{ - options.hardware.framework.enableKmod = lib.mkEnableOption +{ config, lib, pkgs, ... }: +let + kernel_version_compatible = lib.versionAtLeast config.boot.kernelPackages.kernel.version "6.10"; +in { + options.hardware.framework.enableKmod = (lib.mkEnableOption "Enable the community created Framework kernel module that allows interacting with the embedded controller from sysfs." - // { - # Enable by default if on new enough version of NixOS - default = (lib.versionAtLeast (lib.versions.majorMinor lib.version) "24.05"); + ) // { + # enable by default on NixOS >= 24.05 and kernel >= 6.10 + default = lib.and + (lib.versionAtLeast (lib.versions.majorMinor lib.version) "24.05") + kernel_version_compatible; }; - config = lib.mkIf config.hardware.framework.enableKmod { - boot.extraModulePackages = with config.boot.kernelPackages; [ + + config.boot = lib.mkIf config.hardware.framework.enableKmod { + extraModulePackages = with config.boot.kernelPackages; [ framework-laptop-kmod ]; + # https://github.com/DHowett/framework-laptop-kmod?tab=readme-ov-file#usage - boot.kernelModules = [ "cros_ec" "cros_ec_lpcs" ]; + kernelModules = [ "cros_ec" "cros_ec_lpcs" ]; + + # add required patch if enabled on kernel <6.10 + kernelPatches = lib.mkIf (!kernel_version_compatible) [ + rec { + name = "platform/chrome: cros_ec_lpc: add support for AMD Framework Laptops"; + msgid = "20240403004713.130365-1-dustin@howett.net"; + version = "3"; + hash = "sha256-aQSyys8CMzlj9EdNhg8vtp76fg1qEwUVeJL0E+8w5HU="; + patch = pkgs.runCommandLocal "patch-${msgid}" { + nativeBuildInputs = with pkgs; [ b4 git cacert ]; + SSL_CERT_FILE = "${pkgs.cacert}/etc/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt"; + + outputHash = hash; + } '' + export HOME="$TMP" + PYTHONHASHSEED=0 ${pkgs.b4}/bin/b4 -n am -C -T -v ${version} -o- "${msgid}" > "$out" + ''; + } + ]; }; }
