'Enhance the power consumption'? That doesn't sound like something you would want ;) Presumably it is something to allow you to save power by dynamically adjusting LCD backlight and pixel brightness/contrast depending on screen content? I believe this is typically called content adaptive backlight control: https://www.ecnmag.com/article/2010/04/content-adaptive-lcd-backlight-control You spell out what DRC and SAT stands for in the driver source code, perhaps it also makes sense to do it here? Perhaps rewording it to something like this is clearer: .. allows to dynamically adjust pixel brightness/contrast based on histogram measurements for LCD content adaptive backlight control. -- Bye, Peter Korsgaard _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
