[PATCH 1/2] nouveau/bl: Assign different names to interfaces

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently, every backlight interface created by Nouveau uses the same name,
nv_backlight. This leads to a sysfs warning as it tries to create an already
existing folder. This patch adds a incremented number to the name, but keeps
the initial name as nv_backlight, to avoid possibly breaking userspace; the
second interface will be named nv_backlight1, and so on.

Fixes: fdo#86539
