Quick glance at some things suggest this might affect some custom setups people have. There is an xorg.conf option in the intel ddx to force the backlight device selection. But I didn't see any hardcoding of the backlight device name, so unless the user has configured that knob things should keep working I think. Also googling says systemd might have some backlight name to service name magic going on. But I was too lazy to actually read the code so don't know the details. > --- > drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_panel.c | 29 ++++++++++++++-------- > 1 file changed, 18 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_panel.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_panel.c > index 10022d1575e1..5ebf8cb0e8e3 100644 > --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_panel.c > +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_panel.c > @@ -1372,6 +1372,8 @@ int intel_backlight_device_register(struct intel_connector *connector) > struct drm_i915_private *i915 = to_i915(connector->base.dev); > struct intel_panel *panel = &connector->panel; > struct backlight_properties props; > + const char *name; > + int ret = 0; > > if (WARN_ON(panel->backlight.device)) > return -ENODEV; > @@ -1398,28 +1400,33 @@ int intel_backlight_device_register(struct intel_connector *connector) > else > props.power = FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN; > > - /* > - * Note: using the same name independent of the connector prevents > - * registration of multiple backlight devices in the driver. > - */ > + name = kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "card%d-%s-backlight", i915->drm.primary->index, > + connector->base.name); > + if (!name) > + return -ENOMEM; > + > panel->backlight.device = > - backlight_device_register("intel_backlight", > + backlight_device_register(name, > connector->base.kdev, > connector, > &intel_backlight_device_ops, &props); > > if (IS_ERR(panel->backlight.device)) { > - drm_err(&i915->drm, "Failed to register backlight: %ld\n", > - PTR_ERR(panel->backlight.device)); > + drm_err(&i915->drm, "Failed to register backlight %s: %ld\n", > + name, PTR_ERR(panel->backlight.device)); > panel->backlight.device = NULL; > - return -ENODEV; > + ret = -ENODEV; > + goto out; > } > > drm_dbg_kms(&i915->drm, > - "Connector %s backlight sysfs interface registered\n", > - connector->base.name); > + "Connector %s backlight sysfs interface %s registered\n", > + name, connector->base.name); > > - return 0; > +out: > + kfree(name); > + > + return ret; > } > > void intel_backlight_device_unregister(struct intel_connector *connector) > -- > 2.20.1 -- Ville Syrjälä Intel _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
