Subject: Enable GSE interrupt on Broadwell and later?
Date: Tue, 1 Dec 2015 21:53:50 +0100 (CET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201512012053.tB1KroT3014721@glazunov.sibelius.xs4all.nl> (raw)

I just committed the following cange to the OpenBSD inteldrm(4)
driver, which currently is mostly a port of the Linux 3.14 codebase.
This enables the GSE interrupt on Broadwell.  Without this interrupt,
the ASLE backlight brightness mechanism doesn't work.  I've verified
that this fixed the ACPI _BCM/_BCQ-based brightness mechanism on a
MacBookPro12,1 and a 3rd gen Lenovo X1 Carbon.  And as far as I can
tell the current Linux code still doesn't enable the GSE interrupt.
So people over there might want to consider a diff like the one below.

Cheers.

Mark
