The purpose of this patch is to remove 128 bytes buffer limitation imposed in bios_args structure. A limiting factor discovered during this investigation was the struct bios_args.data size restriction. The data member size limits all possible WMI commands to those requiring buffer size of 128 bytes or less. Several WMI commands and queries require a buffer size larger than 128 bytes hence limiting current and feature supported by the driver. It is for this reason, struct bios_args.data changed and is dynamically allocated. hp_wmi_perform_query function changed to handle the memory allocation and release of any required buffer size. All changes were validated on a HP ZBook Workstation notebook, HP EliteBook x360, and HP EliteBook 850 G8. Additional validation was included in the test process to ensure no other commands were incorrectly handled.
