This is an architectural limitation and it limits the number of attributes + that can be modified to 48. + A solution for this is instead of the attribute being saved after every modification, + to allow a user to bulk set the attributes, and then trigger a final save. This allows + unlimited attributes. + + Read the attribute to check what save mode is enabled (single or bulk). + E.g: + # cat /sys/class/firmware-attributes/thinklmi/attributes/save_settings + single + + Write the attribute with 'bulk' to enable bulk save mode. + Write the attribute with 'single' to enable saving, after every attribute set. + The default setting is single mode. + E.g: + # echo bulk > /sys/class/firmware-attributes/thinklmi/attributes/save_settings + + When in bulk mode write 'save' to trigger a save of all currently modified attributes. + Note, once a save has been triggered, in bulk mode, attributes can no longer be set and + will return a permissions error.
