+Dell AWCC WMI interface driver (alienware-wmi)
+==============================================
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+The WMI device WMAX has been implemented for many Alienware and Dell's G-Series
+models. Throughout these models, two implementations have been identified. The
+first one, used by older systems, deals with HDMI, brightness, RGB, amplifier
+and deep sleep control. The second one used by newer systems deals primarily
+with thermal, overclocking, and GPIO control.
+
+It is suspected that the latter is used by Alienware Command Center (AWCC) to
+manage manufacturer predefined thermal profiles. The alienware-wmi driver
+exposes Thermal_Information and Thermal_Control methods through the Platform
+Profile API to mimic AWCC's behavior.
+
+This newer interface, named AWCCMethodFunction has been reverse engineered, as
+Dell has not provided any official documentation. We will try to describe to the
+best of our ability its discovered inner workings.
+
+.. note::
+ The following method description may vary between models.
+
+WMI interface description
+-------------------------
+
+The WMI interface description can be decoded from the embedded binary MOF (bmof)
+data using the `bmfdec <https://github.com/pali/bmfdec>`_ utility:

+ };
+
+Some of these methods get quite intricate so we will describe them using
+pseudo-code that vaguely resembles the original ASL code.
+
+Argument Structure
+------------------
+
+All input arguments have type **uint32** and their structure is very similar
+between methods. Usually, the first byte corresponds to a specific *operation*
+the method performs, and the subsequent bytes correspond to *arguments* passed
+to this *operation*. For example, if an operation has code 0x01 and requires an
+ID 0xA0, the argument you would pass to the method is 0xA001.
+
+
+Thermal Methods
+===============
+
+WMI method Thermal_Information([in] uint32 arg2, [out] uint32 argr)
+-------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+::
+
+ if BYTE_0(arg2) == 0x01:
+ argr = 1
+
+ if BYTE_0(arg2) == 0x02:
+ argr = UNKNOWN_CONSTANT
+
+ if BYTE_0(arg2) == 0x03:
+ if BYTE_1(arg2) == 0x00:
+ argr = FAN_ID_0
+
+ if BYTE_1(arg2) == 0x01:
+ argr = FAN_ID_1
+
+ if BYTE_1(arg2) == 0x02:
+ argr = FAN_ID_2
+
+ if BYTE_1(arg2) == 0x03:
+ argr = FAN_ID_3
+
+ if BYTE_1(arg2) == 0x04:
+ argr = SENSOR_ID_CPU | 0x0100
+
+ if BYTE_1(arg2) == 0x05:
+ argr = SENSOR_ID_GPU | 0x0100
+
+ if BYTE_1(arg2) == 0x06:
+ argr = THERMAL_MODE_QUIET_ID
+
+ if BYTE_1(arg2) == 0x07:
+ argr = THERMAL_MODE_BALANCED_ID
+
+ if BYTE_1(arg2) == 0x08:
+ argr = THERMAL_MODE_BALANCED_PERFORMANCE_ID
+
+ if BYTE_1(arg2) == 0x09:
+ argr = THERMAL_MODE_PERFORMANCE_ID
+
+ if BYTE_1(arg2) == 0x0A:
+ argr = THERMAL_MODE_LOW_POWER_ID
+
+ if BYTE_1(arg2) == 0x0B:
+ argr = THERMAL_MODE_GMODE_ID
+
+ else:
+ argr = 0xFFFFFFFF
+
+ if BYTE_0(arg2) == 0x04:
+ if is_valid_sensor(BYTE_1(arg2)):
+ argr = SENSOR_TEMP_C
+ else:
+ argr = 0xFFFFFFFF
+
+ if BYTE_0(arg2) == 0x05:
+ if is_valid_fan(BYTE_1(arg2)):
+ argr = FAN_RPM()
+
+ if BYTE_0(arg2) == 0x06:
+ skip
+
+ if BYTE_0(arg2) == 0x07:
+ argr = 0
+
+ If BYTE_0(arg2) == 0x08:
+ if is_valid_fan(BYTE_1(arg2)):
+ argr = 0
+ else:
+ argr = 0xFFFFFFFF
+
+ if BYTE_0(arg2) == 0x09:
+ if is_valid_fan(BYTE_1(arg2)):
+ argr = FAN_UNKNOWN_STAT_0()
+
+ else:
+ argr = 0xFFFFFFFF
+
+ if BYTE_0(arg2) == 0x0A:
+ argr = THERMAL_MODE_BALANCED_ID
+
+ if BYTE_0(arg2) == 0x0B:
+ argr = CURRENT_THERMAL_MODE()
+
+ if BYTE_0(arg2) == 0x0C:
+ if is_valid_fan(BYTE_1(arg2)):
+ argr = FAN_UNKNOWN_STAT_1()
+ else:
+ argr = 0xFFFFFFFF
+
+WMI method Thermal_Control([in] uint32 arg2, [out] uint32 argr)
+---------------------------------------------------------------
+
+::
+
+ if BYTE_0(arg2) == 0x01:
+ if is_valid_thermal_profile(BYTE_1(arg2)):
+ SET_THERMAL_PROFILE(BYTE_1(arg2))
+ argr = 0
+
+ if BYTE_0(arg2) == 0x02:
+ if is_valid_fan(BYTE_1(arg2)):
+ SET_FAN_SPEED_MULTIPLIER(BYTE_2(arg2))
+ argr = 0
+ else:
+ argr = 0xFFFFFFFF
+
+.. note::
+ While you can manually change the fan speed multiplier with this method,
+ Dell's BIOS tends to overwrite this changes anyway.
+
+These are the known thermal profile codes:
+
+::
+
+ CUSTOM 0x00
+
+ QUIET 0x96
+ BALANCED 0x97
+ BALANCED_PERFORMANCE 0x98
+ PERFORMANCE 0x99
+
+ QUIET_USTT 0xA3
+ BALANCED_USTT 0xA0
+ BALANCED_PERFORMANCE_USTT 0xA1
+ PERFORMANCE_USTT 0xA4
+ LOW_POWER_USTT 0xA5
+
+ GMODE 0xAB
+
+Usually if a model doesn't support the first four profiles they will support
+the User Selectable Thermal Tables (USTT) profiles and vice-versa.
+
+GMODE replaces PERFORMANCE in G-Series laptops.
+
+Very grateful to `AlexIII <https://github.com/AlexIII/tcc-g15>`_ for discovering
+some of the codes compatible with G-Series laptops.
+
+WMI method GetFanSensors([in] uint32 arg2, [out] uint32 argr)

+
+ if BYTE_0(arg2) == 2:
+ if is_valid_fan(BYTE_1(arg2)):
+ if BYTE_2(arg2) == 0:
+ argr == SENSOR_ID
+ else
+ argr == 0xFFFFFFFF
+ else:
+ argr = 0
