add `Modern 14 B10MW` FW `14D1EMS1.103`

[glpnk]

Checklist #100

Patchnote:

• new: Modern 14 B10MW FW 14D1EMS1.103
• fix: annotate WMI on conf 23

How to install for testing:

git clone -b 14D1EMS1 https://github.com/glpnk/msi-ec.git
cd msi-ec
make

Preferred way of installation is DKMS, because the kernel contains different versions of msi-ec, which will cause conflict.

sudo make dkms-install

Reboot or manually reload module with (without reboot, some daemons will not detect new functions)

sudo modprobe -r msi-ec
sudo modprobe msi-ec debug=true

Few things I noticed though: On reboot, /sys/devices/platform/msi-ec/shift_mode shows "unspecified" and /sys/devices/platform/msi-ec/fan_mode shows "auto", not sure if that's normal.

And from booting back into windows to confirm the above, noticed that Creator Center sets 0x?D instead of 0x?0 for fan modes. not sure why it was 0x?0 yesterday.

The values returned by /sys/devices/platform/msi-ec/fn_key and sys/devices/platform/msi-ec/win_key seemed to be swapped, left instead of right for fn_key and vice versa with win_key.

Please send me output of next command

efivar -n dd96baaf-145e-4f56-b1cf-193256298e99-MsiDCVarData -p

About Fn/Win - I rapidly googled photo and got that Fn was on left side, but photos by MSI show Fn on right side, sorry

Eh, really on right side, I'll fix this now and force push

On your first dump, you have 0xF4=0x0D, but later was 0 instead of D. Good question why this happened, but seems that EC understand any value

Can you make new EC dump right after reboot? You can use this command to not load any kernel modules:

sudo dd if=/dev/mem bs=1 skip=4227860480 count=256 | hexdump -C

Screenshot from RE Everything would be enough if you're on Windows, but it would be better from Linux

[glpnk]

On reboot, /sys/devices/platform/msi-ec/shift_mode shows "unspecified"

Yeah, some laptops write 0x8? to 0xF2 after reboot, but to change shift you need to write 0xC?

and /sys/devices/platform/msi-ec/fan_mode shows "auto", not sure if that's normal.

auto is default shift, so it's ok

Have you tested fan modes? Because you don't have it in checklist

But it is hard to tell without custom fan curve. Silent mode is questionable by design

[glpnk]

@SteelT1 Thank you for your effort. To check newer commit, you need to run:

make clean
git pull
make
sudo make dkms-uninstall
sudo make dkms-install

And reboot or reload module by guide from first comment in this issue

My device Modern C5M use fan curve in any fan mode, even in silent. So fan mode might be just a placeholder for MSI app.

@teackot Ready to merge

I forgot to earlier, but it seems to be taking effect, set it to advanced and applied a custom curve using MControlCenter, and after a few seconds, it started ramping up, same with setting it to silent and ramping down after a few seconds.

[glpnk]

Thank you, so it is ready to merge

[SteelT1]

Yep, fn_key and win_key also reports correct values now.

Thank you so much for adding support!
