Lenovo WMI Interface Gamezone Driver (lenovo-wmi-gamezone)
==========================================================

Introduction
============
The Lenovo WMI gamezone interface is broken up into multiple GUIDs,
The primary "Gamezone" GUID provides advanced features such as fan
profiles and overclocking. It is paired with multiple event GUIDs
and data block GUIDs that provide context for the various methods.

Gamezone Data
-------------

WMI GUID ``887B54E3-DDDC-4B2C-8B88-68A26A8835D0``

The Gamezone Data WMI interface provides platform-profile and fan curve
settings for devices that fall under the "Gaming Series" of Lenovo devices.
It uses a notifier chain to inform other Lenovo WMI interface drivers of the
current platform profile when it changes.

The following platform profiles are supported:
 - low-power
 - balanced
 - balanced-performance
 - performance
 - custom

Balanced-Performance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Some newer Lenovo "Gaming Series" laptops have an "Extreme Mode" profile
enabled in their BIOS. For these devices, the performance platform profile
corresponds to the BIOS Extreme Mode, while the balanced-performance
platform profile corresponds to the BIOS Performance mode. For legacy
devices, the performance platform profile will correspond with the BIOS
Performance mode.

For some newer devices the "Extreme Mode" profile is incomplete in the BIOS
and setting it will cause undefined behavior. A BIOS bug quirk table is
provided to ensure these devices cannot set "Extreme Mode" from the driver.

Custom Profile
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The custom profile represents a hardware mode on Lenovo devices that enables
user modifications to Package Power Tracking (PPT) and fan curve settings.
When an attribute exposed by the Other Mode WMI interface is to be modified,
the Gamezone driver must first be switched to the "custom" profile manually,
or the setting will have no effect. If another profile is set from the list
of supported profiles, the BIOS will override any user PPT settings when
switching to that profile.

Gamezone Thermal Mode Event
---------------------------

WMI GUID ``D320289E-8FEA-41E0-86F9-911D83151B5F``

The Gamezone Thermal Mode Event interface notifies the system when the platform
profile has changed, either through the hardware event (Fn+Q for laptops or
Legion + Y for Go Series), or through the Gamezone WMI interface. This event is
implemented in the Lenovo WMI Events driver (lenovo-wmi-events).

The WMI interface description can be decoded from the embedded binary MOF (bmof)
