From ef2cfc790bf5f0ff189b01eabc0f4feb5e8524df Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pavel Machek Date: Wed, 18 Feb 2009 14:48:23 -0800 Subject: hp accelerometer: add freefall detection MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This adds freefall handling to hp_accel driver. According to HP, it should just work, without us having to set the chip up by hand. hpfall.c is example .c program that parks the disk when accelerometer detects free fall. It should work; for now, it uses fixed 20seconds protection period.
