The spelling "Minumum" in the FanMinSpeed entry is intentionally kept as-is because it reflects the actual string returned by the system BIOS. Add an explanatory note to prevent future redundant spelling-fix submissions. Suggested-by: Jonathan Corbet <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Yahya Toubali <[email protected]> Thanks Mark and Jon for the context. That makes total sense. I dropped the housekeeping typo fix for now to avoid unnecessary churn, and this v4 keeps the BIOS spelling but adds the explicit note documenting the firmware quirk as suggested. --- Documentation/wmi/devices/lenovo-wmi-other.rst | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/Documentation/wmi/devices/lenovo-wmi-other.rst b/Documentation/wmi/devices/lenovo-wmi-other.rst index 01d471156738..f6760f0a6260 100644 --- a/Documentation/wmi/devices/lenovo-wmi-other.rst +++ b/Documentation/wmi/devices/lenovo-wmi-other.rst @@ -90,6 +90,10 @@ 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: +.. note:: + The misspelling of "Minumum" in the FanMinSpeed entry below is deliberate + and reflects the actual string embedded within the system BIOS. + :: [WMI, Dynamic, Provider("WmiProv"), Locale("MS\\0x409"), Description("LENOVO_OTHER_METHOD class"), guid("{dc2a8805-3a8c-41ba-a6f7-092e0089cd3b}")] -- 2.55.0
