I just looked up two random OLED controllers.
They have a "Contrast" - which is wired to set_gamma.
See for example:
fb_sh1106.c:
/* Gamma is used to control Contrast */
static int set_gamma(struct fbtft_par *par, u32 *curves)
{
/* apply mask */
curves[0] &= 0xFF;
/* Set Contrast Control for BANK0 */
write_reg(par, 0x81, curves[0]);
return 0;
}
And fb_ssd1306.c:
/* Gamma is used to control Contrast */
static int set_gamma(struct fbtft_par *par, u32 *curves)
{
/* apply mask */
curves[0] &= 0xFF;
/* Set Contrast Control for BANK0 */
write_reg(par, 0x81);
write_reg(par, curves[0]);
return 0;
}
I have a few ssd1306 panels in the mail, so when I get some spare time I
will try to make a tiny DRM driver for them.
But starting on the backlight stuff seems to a bit more complicated.
Hmm... browsing backlight code I see that FB_EARLY_EVENT_BLANK and FB_R_EARLY_EVENT_BLANK
are not used - time to delete some code...
