396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  393  		Controls how writes to current_value are applied to the hardware.
318d97849fc2cb Mark Pearson        2023-09-19  394  
318d97849fc2cb Mark Pearson        2023-09-19  395  		Read the attribute to check what save mode is enabled (single or bulk).
318d97849fc2cb Mark Pearson        2023-09-19  396  		E.g:
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  397  		# cat /sys/class/firmware-attributes/*/attributes/save_settings
318d97849fc2cb Mark Pearson        2023-09-19  398  		single
318d97849fc2cb Mark Pearson        2023-09-19  399  
318d97849fc2cb Mark Pearson        2023-09-19  400  		Write the attribute with 'bulk' to enable bulk save mode.
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  401  		Write the attribute with 'single' to enable saving, after every
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  402  		attribute set. The default setting is single mode.
318d97849fc2cb Mark Pearson        2023-09-19  403  		E.g:
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  404  		# echo bulk > /sys/class/firmware-attributes/*/attributes/save_settings
318d97849fc2cb Mark Pearson        2023-09-19  405  
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  406  		When in bulk mode write 'save' to trigger an apply of all
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  407  		currently staged attributes.
318d97849fc2cb Mark Pearson        2023-09-19  408  		E.g:
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  409  		# echo save > /sys/class/firmware-attributes/*/attributes/save_settings

396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  413  		thinklmi (Lenovo): On Lenovo platforms there is a limitation in
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  414  		the number of times an attribute can be saved. This is an
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  415  		architectural limitation and it limits the number of attributes
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  416  		that can be modified to 48.
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  417  
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  418  		Once a save has been triggered in bulk mode, attributes can no
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  419  		longer be set and will return a permissions error. This is to
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  420  		prevent users hitting the 48+ save limitation (which requires
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  421  		entering the BIOS to clear the error condition).
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  422  
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  423  		amd-dptc (AMD DPTC): No save-count limitation. 'save' can be
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  424  		called any number of times. Returns -ENOENT if no values have
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  425  		been staged. In addition, when in 'single' mode, the driver
396504b5f0790b Antheas Kapenekakis 2026-03-09  426  		uses pm ops to trigger a save of staged attributes on resume.
