            Bug ID: 102039
           Summary: LID_SWITCH_RELIABILITY=write_open doesn't work
           Product: Wayland
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: medium
         Component: libinput
          Assignee: wayland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: me at jasonclinton.com

Background: Benjamin Tissoires reverted an upstream kernel change which was
intended to make Linux more compatible with default Windows behavior:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/drivers/acpi/button.c?id=878d8db039daac0938238e9a40a5bd6e50ee3c9b

The original commit was to work around bugs like this one where the laptop lid
switch works as expected in Windows without installing any vendor drivers:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=191211

With the revert, the bad behavior has returned (with kernel option as only
recourse for users).

In the revert message, he suggests working around the problem in user space
with a HWDB rule. I have created one:

$ cat /etc/udev/hwdb.d/91-libinput-model-quirks.hwdb
##########################################
# Razer
##########################################
# Razer Blade laptops need us to write the open lid switch event
libinput:name:*Lid Switch*:dmi:*svnRazer:pnBlade*
 LIBINPUT_ATTR_LID_SWITCH_RELIABILITY=write_open

And indeed, it sets the property:

$ udevadm info
--path=/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/PNP0A08:00/device:18/PNP0C09:01/PNP0C0D:00/input/input0/event0
P:
/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/PNP0A08:00/device:18/PNP0C09:01/PNP0C0D:00/input/input0/event0
N: input/event0
E: DEVNAME=/dev/input/event0

DEVPATH=/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/PNP0A08:00/device:18/PNP0C09:01/PNP0C0D:00/input/input0/event0
E: ID_INPUT=1
E: ID_INPUT_SWITCH=1
E: ID_PATH=acpi-PNP0C0D:00
E: ID_PATH_TAG=acpi-PNP0C0D_00
E: LIBINPUT_ATTR_LID_SWITCH_RELIABILITY=write_open
E: LIBINPUT_DEVICE_GROUP=19/0/5/0:PNP0C0D/button
E: MAJOR=13
E: MINOR=64
E: SUBSYSTEM=input
E: TAGS=:power-switch:
E: USEC_INITIALIZED=64391649

However, libinput doesn't actually write open to the lid switch and prevent a
system from suspending after lid open. Systemd eventually times out and sees
that the lid is closed:

$ sudo cat /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID0/state 
state:      closed

$ libinput --version
1.8.0

Running Wayland on F26 with:
Linux version 4.13.0-0.rc3.git0.1.fc27.x86_64
(mockbuild at bkernel02.phx2.fedoraproject.org) (gcc version 7.1.1 20170718 (Red
Hat 7.1.1-6) (GCC)) #1 SMP Mon Jul 31 16:41:10 UTC 2017

Please fix libinput or revert the upstream kernel revert.
