Created attachment 198131 [details] Patch on surfacepro3_button My Surface pro 4 is i7/16G not sure if this applies to all other surface pro 4 model. From Device Manager under Windows, surface pro 4 seems to use a different device id MSHW0040 for its button. I tried to make use to existing surfacepro3_button module and seems it works by simply add new ID. All three buttons (power/volumn up/down) are all working. Surface Pro 4 doesn't have a home button. Patch attached.
Add current surfacepro3_button maintainer in CC.
Thanks for you work! I've tested your patch on surface pro 3, looks good to me, one minor nit below: can you please modify the file name of surfacepro3_button.c to surfacepro_button.c and also the description in Kconfig&MAINTAINER and the naming of 'surface pro 3/4' to 'surface pro series' in surfacepro_button.c. maybe there would be a surface pro 5 one day :) you can send your patch to platform-driver-x86@vger.kernel.org and let's wait for x86 maintainers's response.

Though it doesn't do anyting on non-pro device right now.
