acpi_video_set_dmi_backlight_type() is troublesome because it may end up getting called after other backlight drivers have already called acpi_video_get_backlight_type() resulting in the other drivers already being registered even though they should not. In case of the acpi_video backlight, acpi_video_set_dmi_backlight_type() actually calls acpi_video_unregister_backlight() since that is often probed earlier, leading to userspace seeing the acpi_video0 class device being briefly available, leading to races in userspace where udev probe-rules try to access the device and it is already gone. All callers have been fixed to no longer call it, so remove acpi_video_set_dmi_backlight_type() now. This means we now also no longer need acpi_video_unregister_backlight() for the remove acpi_video backlight after it was wrongly registered hack, so remove that too. Acked-by: Rafael J.

Move all the acpi_backlight=[vendor|native] quirks from samsung-laptop to drivers/acpi/video_detect.c . Note the X360 -> acpi_backlight=native quirk is not moved because that already was present in drivers/acpi/video_detect.c . Acked-by: Rafael J.

Note no entries are dropped from the dmi_system_id table in asus-nb-wmi.c. This is because the entries using the removed wmi_backlight_power flag also use other model specific quirks from the asus-wmi quirk_entry struct. So the quirk_asus_x55u struct and the entries pointing to it cannot be dropped. Acked-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com>

Remove this check from the asus-wmi backlight handling: /* Some Asus desktop boards export an acpi-video backlight interface, stop this from showing up */ chassis_type = dmi_get_system_info(DMI_CHASSIS_TYPE); if (chassis_type && !strcmp(chassis_type, "3")) acpi_video_set_dmi_backlight_type(acpi_backlight_vendor); This acpi_video_set_dmi_backlight_type(acpi_backlight_vendor) call must be removed because other changes in this series change the native backlight drivers to no longer unconditionally register their backlight. Instead these drivers now do this check: if (acpi_video_get_backlight_type(false) != acpi_backlight_native) return 0; /* bail */ So leaving this in place can break things on laptops with a broken DMI chassis-type, which would have GPU native brightness control before the addition of the acpi_video_get_backlight_type() != native check. Removing this should be ok now, since the ACPI video code has improved heuristics for this itself now (which includes a chassis-type check). Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com>

Move the backlight DMI quirks to acpi/video_detect.c, so that the driver no longer needs to call acpi_video_set_dmi_backlight_type(). acpi_video_set_dmi_backlight_type() is troublesome because it may end up getting called after other backlight drivers have already called acpi_video_get_backlight_type() resulting in the other drivers already being registered even though they should not. Note that even though the DMI quirk table name was video_vendor_dmi_table, 5/6 quirks were actually quirks to use the GPU native backlight. These 5 quirks also had a callback in their dmi_system_id entry which disabled the acer-wmi vendor driver; and any DMI match resulted in: acpi_video_set_dmi_backlight_type(acpi_backlight_vendor); which disabled the acpi_video driver, so only the native driver was left. The new entries for these 5/6 devices correctly marks these as needing the native backlight driver. Also note that other changes in this series change the native backlight drivers to no longer unconditionally register their backlight. Instead these drivers now do this check: if (acpi_video_get_backlight_type(false) != acpi_backlight_native) return 0; /* bail */ which without this patch would have broken these 5/6 "special" quirks. Since I had to look at all the commits adding the quirks anyways, to make sure that I understood the code correctly, I've also added links to the various original bugzillas for these quirks to the new entries.

In case of toshiba_acpi there are no DMI quirks to move to acpi/video_detect.c, but it also (ab)uses it for transflective displays. Adding transflective display support to video_detect.c would be quite involved. But luckily there are only 2 known models with a transflective display, so we can just add DMI quirks for those.

Add an acpi_video_get_backlight_type() == acpi_backlight_nvidia_wmi_ec check. This will make nvidia-wmi-ec-backlight properly honor the user selecting a different backlight driver through the acpi_backlight=... kernel commandline option. Since the auto-detect code check for nvidia-wmi-ec-backlight in drivers/acpi/video_detect.c already checks that the WMI advertised brightness-source is the embedded controller, this new check makes it unnecessary for nvidia_wmi_ec_backlight_probe() to check this itself.

Typically the acpi_video driver will initialize before radeon, which used to cause /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0 to get registered and then radeon would register its own radeon_bl# device later.

On machins without an i915 opregion the acpi_video driver immediately probes the ACPI video bus and used to also immediately register acpi_video# backlight devices when supported.

Remove the code to unregister acpi_video backlight devices when a native backlight device gets registered later. Now that the acpi_video backlight device registration is a separate step which runs later, after the drm/kms driver is done setting up its own native backlight device, it is no longer necessary to monitor for a native (BACKLIGHT_RAW) device showing up later and to then unregister the acpi_video backlight device(s).

On x86/ACPI boards the acpi_video driver will usually initialize before the kms driver (except i915). This causes /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0 to show up and then the kms driver registers its own native backlight device after which the drivers/acpi/video_detect.c code unregisters the acpi_video0 device (when acpi_video_get_backlight_type()==native). This means that userspace briefly sees 2 devices and the disappearing of acpi_video0 after a brief time confuses the systemd backlight level save/restore code, see e.g.: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=269920 To fix this make backlight class device registration a separate step done by a new acpi_video_register_backlight() function. The intend is for this to be called by the drm/kms driver *after* it is done setting up its own native backlight device. So that acpi_video_get_backlight_type() knows if a native backlight will be available or not at acpi_video backlight registration time, avoiding the add + remove dance. Note the new acpi_video_register_backlight() function is also called from a delayed work to ensure that the acpi_video backlight devices does get registered if necessary even if there is no drm/kms driver or when it is disabled.

All x86/ACPI kms drivers which register native/BACKLIGHT_RAW type backlight devices call acpi_video_backlight_use_native() now. This sets __acpi_video_get_backlight_type()'s internal static native_available flag. This makes the backlight_device_get_by_type(BACKLIGHT_RAW) check unnecessary. Relying on the cached native_available value not only is simpler, it will also work correctly in cases where then native backlight registration was skipped because of acpi_video_backlight_use_native() returning false.

ATM on x86 laptops where we want userspace to use the acpi_video backlight device we often register both the GPU's native backlight device and acpi_video's firmware acpi_video# backlight device. This relies on userspace preferring firmware type backlight devices over native ones, but registering 2 backlight devices for a single display really is undesirable. On x86 laptops where the native GPU backlight device should be used, the registering of other backlight devices is avoided by their drivers using acpi_video_get_backlight_type() and only registering their backlight if the return value matches their type. acpi_video_get_backlight_type() uses backlight_device_get_by_type(BACKLIGHT_RAW) to determine if a native driver is available and will never return native if this returns false. This means that the GPU's native backlight registering code cannot just call acpi_video_get_backlight_type() to determine if it should register its backlight, since acpi_video_get_backlight_type() will never return native until the native backlight has already registered. To fix this add a new internal native function parameter to acpi_video_get_backlight_type(), which when set to true will make acpi_video_get_backlight_type() behave as if a native backlight has already been registered. And add a new acpi_video_backlight_use_native() helper, which sets this to true, for use in native GPU backlight code. Changes in v2: - Replace adding a native parameter to acpi_video_get_backlight_type() with adding a new acpi_video_backlight_use_native() helper. Acked-by: Rafael J.

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman: - Ensure we never emit lwarx with EH=1 on 32-bit, because some 32-bit CPUs trap on it rather than ignoring it as they should. - Fix ftrace when building with clang, which was broken by some refactoring. - A couple of other minor fixes. Thanks to Christophe Leroy, Naveen N. Rao, Nick Desaulniers, Ondrej Mosnacek, Pali Rohár, Russell Currey, and Segher Boessenkool. * tag 'powerpc-6.0-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux: powerpc/kexec: Fix build failure from uninitialised variable powerpc/ppc-opcode: Fix PPC_RAW_TW() powerpc64/ftrace: Fix ftrace for clang builds powerpc: Make eh value more explicit when using lwarx powerpc: Don't hide eh field of lwarx behind a macro powerpc: Fix eh field when calling lwarx on PPC32

Enable multipage folio support for the afs filesystem. Support has already been implemented in netfslib, fscache and cachefiles and in most of afs, but I've waited for Matthew Wilcox's latest folio changes. Note that it does require a change to afs_write_begin() to return the correct subpage. This is a "temporary" change as we're working on getting rid of the need for ->write_begin() and ->write_end() completely, at least as far as network filesystems are concerned - but it doesn't prevent afs from making use of the capability.
