You sent this version before I finished my follow-up questions, copying
the conversation here for context.
DK: Won't DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_AUX_ENABLE_CAP be 1 always? The code below,
in
intel_dp_aux_display_control_capable(), makes sure
DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_PIN_ENABLE_CAP=0. The spec says at least one of these
has to be 1.
Puthikorn: We will drop the DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_PIN_ENABLE_CAP != 0 check
in next patch set.
This patch adds check here to prepare for that.
1) So, this patch does not really fix what the commit message claims
because it is dependent on the following patch. Does it make sense to
remove this check in this patch? That way, this patch by itself is the
fix that the commit message says.
- !((intel_dp->edp_dpcd[1] & DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_PIN_ENABLE_CAP)
2) If a panel supports backlight enable via AUX and BL_ENABLE pin, this
patch (along with the next) enables backlight twice, doesn't it?
_intel_edp_backlight_on(intel_dp) in intel_dp.c is called
unconditionally after intel_dp_aux_enable_backlight(). I don't know how
likely this configuration is or if it's alright to enable via both AUX
and BL_ENABLE pin.
