There may be multiple ways of controlling the backlight on a given machine.
Allow drivers to expose the type of interface they are providing, making
it possible for userspace to make appropriate policy decisions.

Description:
Maximum brightness for <backlight>.
Users: HAL
+
+What: /sys/class/backlight/<backlight>/type
+Date: September 2010
+KernelVersion: 2.6.37
+Contact: Matthew Garrett <[email protected]>
+Description:
+ The type of interface controlled by <backlight>.
+ "firmware": The driver uses a standard firmware interface
+ "platform": The driver uses a platform-specific interface
+ "raw": The driver controls hardware registers directly
+
+ In the general case, when multiple backlight
+ interfaces are available for a single device, firmware
+ control should be preferred to platform control should
+ be preferred to raw control. Using a firmware
+ interface reduces the probability of confusion with
+ the hardware and the OS independently updating the
+ backlight state. Platform interfaces are mostly a
+ holdover from pre-standardisation of firmware
+ interfaces.

1.7.3.2
From: Michel Dänzer <[email protected]>
Allows e.g. power management daemons to control the backlight level. Inspired
by the corresponding code in radeonfb.
(Updated to add backlight type and make the connector the parent device - mjg)

And if/when the half-life expires, we'll have drivers in-tree which
forget to set backlight_properties.type. I haven't checked, but if
we're lucky they will default to "0".
What will be the runtime effects upon such unconverted drivers?
Ideally we'd like them to continue to work OK, and to emit a runtime
warning. In which case you'll need BACKLIGHT_RAW=1 so the unconverted
driver can be detected, warned about and fixed up by the core code.

Well, ideally it would have landed in the backlight tree when I sent it
months ago. Then we'd have the opportunity to ensure that everything was
fixed up before it went in in the merge window.

Depends entirely on whether they kzalloc the structure or not before
calling backlight_device_register().

The worst case I can think of is that we walk off the array - I guess
there's an argument for sanity checking that in backlight_show_type().

Richard got distracted. At present I'm grabbing the leds and backlight
patches and Richard is reviewing them as they fly past.
I don't see there's much point in me merging this patch series so if it
survives review, I'd suggest that you put it into an mjg tree and
thence into linux-next and mainline?

Well. Even if it's uninitialised, the chances of the value being 1, 2
or 3 for all users are pretty small, so we'll still get to hear about
it if the runtime check is appropriately implemented.

OK, well please have a think about it, see what you can do to handle
unconverted (and possibly out-of-tree) drivers in a friendly fashion.

I think adding a BACKLIGHT_TYPEUNKNOWN as the first item in the enum,
sanity checking the array bounds and printing a warning if type is not
one of the defined values would be good.
I also want to make sure you think this patch is going to scale with
multiple GPU output machines? Thats the main reason I've held off any
patch like this as it doesn't help solve that problem as far as I can
tell. Yes, we have the device parent information and I see later in the
patch series you ensure the backlight is registered against the
connector which is good. If you have an ACPI "firmware" control that you
say should always be preferred, how do we know which connector device
that corresponds to in the multiple output case? From that point of view
this model falls apart?
What I really want to avoid is a new interface which just papers over
cracks, only to have everything crumble anyway.

Richard

The ACPI device will point at the correct PCI device. Associating it
with the appropriate connector is theoretically possible in the case of
open drivers, but I hadn't seen it as a high priority since (in
practice) there's no situations where an ACPI interface will be able to
control more than one backlight.

Its the reverse situation I worry about. Are there situations where
there are multiple connectors on the PCI device and the ACPI interface
just controls one of them but controls for the other connectors may
exist?
I'm typing this with an external monitor plugged into my laptop with
i915 graphics...

Yes, that's certainly possible and it'd be desirable to fix this up, but
the same problem also applies to platform interfaces and it's typically
unfixable there. My userspace implementation looks at the connector type
to determine the best approach - if it's not LVDS or eDP it ignores the
firmware and platform interfaces, so you'll fall back to the raw
interface if it can provide support for your connector (presumably via
ddcci, although we don't have this implemented yet)

Sorry for the late response, but I've just realized there's a problem with this

I'm afraid you can't do that or suspend problems will happen.
Namely, the PM core assumes that parents will be registered before their
children and it is a very strong assumption. If violated, it may lead to
a suspend sequence deadlock.
Unfortunately, it looks like the ACPI video device is registered before the
PCI device that's becoming it's parent, so the above assumption will be
violated.

Not nicely, I'm afraid.
One possible way is to use device_pm_move_after() to rearrange the devices in
the PM core's suspend list, but that will happen in the video device being
suspended before the new parent (and resumed after it) -- of course, the only
option is to move the ACPI video device after the new parent.

Hang on. Didn't we already have a related issue with the acpi video
device being resumed before the video card, resulting in an SMI that
hung the system? I thought we'd arranged things such that resuming the
ACPI video device wouldn't actually do anything until after the PCI
device had been handled? It seems like the correct thing is definitely
for it to be suspended before and resumed after...

Yes, it seems so, but I'm not sure what the short term consequences of that
change will be. Perhaps there will be none. :-)

Ok, I'll have a play with that. Maybe we should be fixing this up
somehow in the acpi-pci glue code? It seems wrong to have acpi devices
resumed before the PCI device they're associated with.

Those device's don't have ACPI drivers and therefore they are not really
suspended or resumed, so we don't need to fix anything in that area.
Still, IMO, there is a design issue in the entire ACPI subsystem, because the
idea of "ACPI device" really is not well defined, so to speak. Sometimes
they are just "device interfaces" that can be used to ask the firmware for
something (like in the case of the "ACPI devices" associated with PCI devices)
and sometimes they are "real devices" with real drivers. The video device
apparently wants to be both at the same time, which is even more confusing. :-)
I _think_ that struct acpi_device shouldn't really contain the embedded device
object and each of struct acpi_device objects should be pointed to by the
archdata member of certain struct device. In turn, struct acpi_device should
contain a pointer to the struct device that it's pointed to by via the archdata
field. Then, the struct acpi_device objects will always be "device interfaces"
and all of the device-driver interactions will be represented through their
corresponding device objects. That should allow us to avoid all of the
suspend-resume complications (and all sorts of other ugliness).

I'm not familiar with video devices, but I agree, this situation does
feel broken. Is it the case that there's a PCI device as well as an
ACPI namespace Device for the same piece of hardware? If so, I assume
the reason for the ACPI Device is to have a "standard" interface to
a platform knob like backlight control.
In that case, it seems like we should rely on PCI for enumeration and
driver binding, have some sort of hook the PCI driver could use to
twiddle that knob (using the ACPI methods), and make the ACPI Device
ineligible for driver binding. In other words, it sounds like part
of the problem is that we have two drivers binding to what's really
a single piece of hardware.

Part of the problem is that ACPI video devices aren't inherently PCI
devices.

To me, this really isn't about video devices. The problem is that objects
of type struct acpi_device are treated _differently_ depending on the context.
In the meantime I've reviewed the code a bit and noticed that there's a
parent pointer in struct acpi_device, which basically duplicates the device
tree dependency, so it looks like the embedded dev in struct acpi_device is
really redundant.
