I have some comments on the rfkill code.

Where do I find pretend_blocked?

How does this ever happen? Is this "present" bit really needed?

Unlike thinkpad_acpi or eeepc-laptop, I don't see any support for rfkill notifications. Can you get a notification when the hardware block changes? (I assume it's associated with a switch the user can change). If there's an ACPI notification you should be able to reverse engineer it in the time honoured way :-).

If there's no obvious notification, you should probably use polling, i.e. set .poll() as well as .query().

The third alternative is that you're like dell-laptop, you're planning to get events via the keyboard controller, and you're waiting until Matthew Garret gets the necessary hooks into the linux input stack. If that's the case you should just add a TODO comment so we know what's going on.

You could do this in one call

rfkill_set_states(*rfk, sw_blocked, hw_blocked);

Ugh, I lose track of fields. How about using named initializers, e.g.

.name = "bluetooth",

And this first "name" field doesn't seem to be used for anything useful. Can we get rid of it please?

The getter and setter callbacks seem a bit over-engineered. Can't we just use something like

.acpi_method = "SBDC",

This is very suspicious. The rfkill core supports two possibilities here:

1) Platform preserves soft-blocked state even when power is removed. Driver calls rfkill_init_sw_state(rfk, sw_blocked) before registration. Rfkill core will respect this value (userspace may have other ideas though :-).

It sounds like your hardware could support this first case, but here's the other one for comparison -

2) Platform does not preserve soft-blocked state, or perhaps there is some problem which means we can't trust the platform. Instead, the *rfkill core* will call set_block() at registration time, with a value taken from the rfkill.default_state module parameter. The driver should not attempt to initialise the soft blocked state itself.

In either case, the driver should report the current hardware-blocked state before registration. That seems to be missing here as well.
