[PATCH 0/2] drm/amd/display: some backlight fixes

[Takashi Iwai]

Hi,

here are two patches handling the issues in the backlight control.
The first one is to fix the sysfs brightness read for devices with the
backlight controlled by aux channel.  The second one is to add a new
module option, aux_backlight, to forcibly enable/disable the aux
channel backlight control.  It's no direct solution for the bug we've
hit, but it gives at least a workaround.

BugLink: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1180749
BugLink: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/1438


thanks,

Takashi

[PATCH 1/2] drm/amd/display: Fix the brightness read via aux

[Takashi Iwai]

The current code tries to read the brightness value via
dc_link_get_backlight_level() no matter whether it's controlled via
aux or not, and this results in a bogus value returned.
Fix it to read the current value via
dc_link_get_backlight_level_nits() for the aux.

[PATCH 2/2] drm/amd/display: Add aux_backlight module option

[Takashi Iwai]

There seem devices that don't work with the aux channel backlight
control.  For allowing such users to test with the other backlight
control method, provide a new module option, aux_backlight, to specify
enabling or disabling the aux backport support explicitly.  As
default, the aux support is detected by the hardware capability.

I'd suggest making this something more generic like "backlight" and
make -1 auto, 0 pwm, 1 aux.  That way we can handle potential future
types more cleanly.

I'm fine to scratch mine as long as the issue gets fixed :)

FWIW, the biggest problem so far was the aux channel backlight didn't
work as expected, the actual backlight isn't changed by the backlight
sysfs write.  (And the sysfs read gives a bogus value, but it's not
the cause of the non-working backlight control.)

Does the aux channel backlight really work with the current code?
Or is this rather a device-specific issue (e.g. broken BIOS) and we
might need to come up with a deny list or such?

Takashi

Has there been any progress on the backlight fixes?
