There are a couple of ARM-based server systems that use the gpio-
keyboard and gpio-keyboard-polled drivers to send an event requesting a
shutdown. The following rules DTRT, though obviously it'd be nice if a
more generic (but still safe) rule could be devised.

SUBSYSTEM=="input", KERNEL=="event*", SUBSYSTEMS=="platform", KERNELS
=="gpio-keys.6", PROGRAM="/bin/grep '^HP ProLiant m400 Server
Cartridge$' /proc/device-tree/model", TAG+="power-switch"


SUBSYSTEM=="input", KERNEL=="event*", SUBSYSTEMS=="platform", KERNELS=="gpio_keys.12", ATTRS{keys}=="116", PROGRAM="/bin/cat /proc/device-tree/model", RESULT=="HP ProLiant m800 Server Cartridge", TAG+="power-switch"

You'll notice a couple of differences between the two. The m800 rule
specifies a key attribute where the m400 rule does not. This is because
the first uses a polled gpio via the gpio-keyboard-polled driver. This
driver does not expose a "keys" attribute in sysfs. The m400 uses the
gpio-keyboard driver, which does.

You'll also notice the grep vs. cat/RESULT methods. Not sure if upstream
has a preference.

It might make sense to drop the model/pin matching of the m800 rule, and
bind to any ATTR{keys}=="116" - this is defined as KEY_POWER in
<linux/input.h>. Of course, that won't help the -polled variant.

  shutdown trigger on gpio_keys.X for armhf hardware

Bug description:
  Some ARM board uses GPIO gpio_key.12 for power control (key=116). The
  proposed patch adds entry to logind's 70-power-switch.rules to
  initiate soft shutdown of the cartridge from ilo.

  Here is the udevadm output for /dev/input/event0

  sudo udevadm info --query=all --name=/dev/input/event0 --attribute-
  walk

  Udevadm info starts with the device specified by the devpath and then
  walks up the chain of parent devices. It prints for every device
  found, all possible attributes in the udev rules key format.
  A rule to match, can be composed by the attributes of the device
  and the attributes from one single parent device.

    looking at device '/devices/soc.3/gpio_keys.12/input/input0/event0':
      KERNEL=="event0"
      SUBSYSTEM=="input"
      DRIVER==""

    looking at parent device '/devices/soc.3/gpio_keys.12/input/input0':
      KERNELS=="input0"
      SUBSYSTEMS=="input"
      DRIVERS==""
      ATTRS{name}=="gpio_keys.12"
      ATTRS{phys}=="gpio-keys/input0"
      ATTRS{uniq}==""
      ATTRS{properties}=="0"

    looking at parent device '/devices/soc.3/gpio_keys.12':
      KERNELS=="gpio_keys.12"
      SUBSYSTEMS=="platform"
      DRIVERS=="gpio-keys"
      ATTRS{keys}=="116"
      ATTRS{switches}==""
      ATTRS{disabled_keys}==""
      ATTRS{disabled_switches}==""

    looking at parent device '/devices/soc.3':
      KERNELS=="soc.3"
      SUBSYSTEMS=="platform"
      DRIVERS==""

  Regarding the possibility of gpio_key.12 being used by other systems
  to map to some other trigger, I put in the check that the gpio_key.12
  is associated with power control (keys=116). '116' is supposedly linux
  generic power control in DTS. There is no uniq idSystem or idVendor
  for device /dev/input/event0 as you can see from udevadm output,
  therefore I tried to use the best available combination as a safety
  check. This patch will enable power control for any system vendor
  (Other than the one the patch in intended for) that describes in DTS,
  the trigger gpio_key.12 as power control (116).

  ==========

  [Impact]

  * User won't be able to initiate a soft shutdown from the chassis
  manager.

  [Test Case]

  * To reproduce this bug, initiate a soft shutdown from the chassis manager, for example from ilo you could do
  <ilo> set node power off shutdown <node number>

  None.
