acpi_video_unregister_backlight() is now only used by video_detect.c which is part of the same acpi_video module as video.c, make acpi_video_unregister_backlight() private to this module. Signed-off-by:

Port the backlight selection logic to the new backlight interface selection API. This commit also removes various obsolete pr_xxx messages related to backlight interface selection. These are obsolete because they assume there is only a vendor or acpi backlight driver and no other choice. Also they are not necessary, if the user wants to know which backlight interfaces are registered a simple "ls /sys/class/backlight" suffices. Signed-off-by:

It is possible for a native backlight driver to load while acpi_video_register is running, which may lead to acpi_video_unregister_backlight being called while acpi_video_register is running and the 2 racing against eachother. The register_count variable protects against this, but not in a thread safe manner, this commit adds locking to make this thread safe. Signed-off-by:

Hans de Goede authored
When builtin there is no guarantee in which order module_init functions are run, so acpi_video_register() may get called from the i915 driver (if it is also builtin) before acpi_video_init() gets called, resulting in the dmi quirks not yet being parsed. This commit moves the dmi_check_system() call to acpi_video_register(), so that we can be sure the dmi quirks have always been applied before probing. Signed-off-by:

Move the unregistering of the acpi backlight interface on registering of a native backlight from video.c to video_detect.c where it belongs. Note this removes support for re-registering the acpi backlight interface when the native interface goes away. In practice this never happens and it needlessly complicates the code. Signed-off-by:

Most of the patch is moving the dmi quirks for forcing use of the acpi-video / the native backlight interface to video_detect.c. What remains is a nice cleanup. Signed-off-by:

This results in a nice cleanup, as we can replace the complicated logic from should_ignore_backlight_request() with a simple check for the type being native. Signed-off-by:

Hans de Goede authored
Make acpi_video_set_dmi_backlight_type() call acpi_video_unregister_backlight() when the new dmi quirk results in the desired backlight interface being of a type other then acpi_backlight_video. This avoid the need for the second if in the following construction which is currently found in many platform/x86 drivers: if (prefer_vendor_quirk) acpi_video_dmi_promote_vendor(); if (!acpi_video_backlight_support()) acpi_video_unregister_backlight() This second if-block will be removed from the platform drivers as part of their conversion to the new backlight interface selection API.

Currently we have 2 kernel commandline options + dmi-quirks in 3 places all interacting (in interesting ways) to select which which backlight interface to use. On the commandline we've acpi_backlight=[video|vendor] and video.use_native_backlight=[0|1]. DMI quirks we have in acpi/video-detect.c, acpi/video.c and drivers/platform/x86/*.c . This commit is the first step to cleaning this up, replacing the 2 cmdline options with just acpi_backlight=[video|vendor|native|none], and adds a new API to video_detect.c to reflect this. Follow up commits will also move other related code, like unregistering the acpi_video backlight interface if it was registered before other drivers which take priority over it are loaded, to video_detect.c where this logic really belongs.

This is a preparation patch for the backlight interface selection logic cleanup, there are 2 reasons to not always build the video_detect code into the kernel: 1) In order for the video_detect.c to also deal with / select native backlight interfaces on win8 systems, instead of doing this in video.c where it does not belong, video_detect.c needs to call into the backlight class code. Which cannot be done if it is builtin and the blacklight class is not. 2) Currently all the platform/x86 drivers which have quirks to prefer the vendor driver over acpi-video call acpi_video_unregister_backlight() to remove the acpi-video backlight interface, this logic really belongs in video_detect.c, which will cause video_detect.c to depend on symbols of video.c and video.c already depends on video_detect.c symbols, so they really need to be a single module. Note that this commits make 2 changes so as to maintain 100% kernel commandline compatibility: 1) The __setup call for the acpi_backlight= handling is moved to acpi/util.c as __setup may only be used by code which is alwasy builtin 2) video.c is renamed to acpi_video.c so that it can be combined with video_detect.c into video.ko This commit also makes changes to drivers/platform/x86/Kconfig to ensure that drivers which use acpi_video_backlight_support() from video_detect.c, will not be built-in when acpi_video is not built in. This also changes some "select" uses to "depends on" to avoid dependency loops. Signed-off-by:

acpi_osi_is_win8 needs access to acpi_gbl_osi_data which is not exported, so move it to osl.c. Alternatively we could export acpi_gbl_osi_data but that seems undesirable. This allows video_detect.c to be build as a module, besides that acpi_osi_is_win8() is something which does not really belong in video_detect.c in the first place. Signed-off-by:

This allows video_detect.c to be build as a module, this is a preparation patch for the backlight interface selection logic cleanup. Note this commit also causes acpi_is_video_device() to always be build indepedent of CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO, as there is no reason to make its building depend on CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO. Signed-off-by:

Remove the now unused acpi_video_dmi_demote_vendor() function, this was never a proper counter part of acpi_video_dmi_promote_vendor() since the calls to acpi_video_dmi_promote_vendor() are not counted. Signed-off-by:
-
Hans de Goede authored
acpi_video_dmi_demote_vendor() is going away as part of the cleanup of the code for determinging which backlight class driver(s) to register. The call to acpi_video_dmi_demote_vendor() was meant to undo the call to acpi_video_dmi_promote_vendor() when the gmux device is removed, this is questionable though since the promote call sets a flag, not a counter, so the demote call may undo a promoto done elsewhere. Moreover in practice this is a nop since the gmux device is never removed, and the flag is only checked when acpi/video.ko gets loaded, so even if the user manually removes apple-gmux the demote call is still a nop as video.ko will already have loaded by this time. Also note that none of the other users of acpi_video_dmi_promote_vendor() use acpi_video_dmi_demote_vendor(). If we ever encounter a system with a gmux where the acpi-video interface should be used, then the proper fix would be to dmi-blacklist the gmux driver on that system. Signed-off-by:

acpi_video_unregister() not only unregisters the acpi-video backlight interface but also unregisters the acpi video bus event listener, causing e.g. brightness hotkey presses to no longer generate keypress events. The unregistering of the acpi video bus event listener usually is undesirable, which by itself is a good reason to switch to acpi_video_unregister_backlight(). Another problem with using acpi_video_unregister() rather then using acpi_video_unregister_backlight() is that on systems with an intel video opregion (most systems) and a broken_acpi_video quirk, whether or not the acpi video bus event listener actually gets unregistered depends on module load ordering: Scenario a: 1) acpi/video.ko gets loaded (*), does not do acpi_video_register as there is an intel opregion. 2) intel.ko gets loaded, calls acpi_video_register() which registers both the listener and the acpi backlight interface 3) samsung-laptop.ko gets loaded, calls acpi_video_unregister() causing both the listener and the acpi backlight interface to unregister Scenario b: 1) acpi/video.ko gets loaded (*), does not do acpi_video_register as there is an intel opregion. 2) samsung-laptop.ko gets loaded, calls acpi_video_dmi_promote_vendor(), calls acpi_video_unregister(), which is a nop since acpi_video_register has not yet been called 2) intel.ko gets loaded, calls acpi_video_register() which registers the listener, but does not register the acpi backlight interface due to the call to the preciding call to acpi_video_dmi_promote_vendor() *) acpi/video.ko always loads first as both other modules depend on it. So we end up with or without an acpi video bus event listener depending on module load ordering, not good. Switching to using acpi_video_unregister_backlight() means that independ of ordering we will always have an acpi video bus event listener fixing this. Note that this commit means that systems without an intel video opregion, and systems which were hitting scenario a wrt module load ordering, are now getting an acpi video bus event listener while before they were not! On some systems this may cause the brightness hotkeys to start generating keypresses while before they were not (good), while on other systems this may cause the brightness hotkeys to generate multiple keypress events for a single press (not so good). Since on most systems the acpi video bus is the canonical source for brightness events I believe that the latter case will needs to be handled on a case by case basis by filtering out the duplicate keypresses at the other source for them.

On some systems acpi-video backlight is broken in the sense that it cannot control the brightness of the backlight, but it must still be called on resume to power-up the backlight after resume. This commit allows these systems to work by going through all the usual backlight control moves, while not registering a sysfs backlight interface. This commit also adds a quirk enabling this parameter on Toshiba Portege R830 systems which are known to be affected by this. I wish there was a better way to deal with this, but we've been unable to find one.

It seems that the latest generation of MacbookPro needs to use the native backlight driver, just like most modern laptops do, but it does not automatically get enabled as the Apple BIOS does not advertise Windows 8 compatibility. So add a quirk for this. Reported-by:
