Under /proc/acpi, there is a fan control interface, a user can
set 0 or 3 to /proc/acpi/fan/*/state, 0 denotes D0 state, 3
denotes D3 state, but in current implementation, a user can
set a fan to D1 state by any char excluding '1', '2' and '3'.
For example:
[root@localhost acpi]# cat /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
status: off
[root@localhost acpi]# echo "" > /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
[root@localhost acpi]# cat /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
status: on
[root@localhost acpi]# echo "3" > /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
[root@localhost acpi]# cat /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
status: off
[root@localhost acpi]# echo "xxxxx" > /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
[root@localhost acpi]# cat /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
status: on
Obviously, such inputs as "" and "xxxxx" are invalid for fan state.
This patch fixes this issue, it strictly limits fan state only to
accept 0, 1, 2 and 3, any other inputs are invalid.
Before applying this patch, the test result is:
[root@localhost acpi]# cat /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
status: off
[root@localhost acpi]# echo "" > /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
[root@localhost acpi]# cat /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
status: on
[root@localhost acpi]# echo "3" > /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
[root@localhost acpi]# cat /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
status: off
[root@localhost acpi]# echo "xxxxx" > /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
[root@localhost acpi]# cat /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
status: on
[root@localhost acpi]# echo "3" > /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
[root@localhost acpi]# cat /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
status: off
[root@localhost acpi]# echo "3x" > /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
[root@localhost acpi]# cat /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
status: off
[root@localhost acpi]# echo "-1x" > /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
[root@localhost acpi]# cat /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
status: on
[root@localhost acpi]#
