This patch set adds generic abstract layer support for acpi video driver to have generic user interface to control backlight and output switch control by leveraging the existing backlight sysfs class driver, and by adding a new video output sysfs class driver. Patch 1/5: adds dev argument for backlight_device_register to link the class device to real device object. The platform specific driver should find a way to get the real device object for their video device. signed-off-by: Luming Yu <Luming.yu@xxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/acpi/asus_acpi.c | 2 +- drivers/acpi/ibm_acpi.c | 2 +- drivers/acpi/toshiba_acpi.c | 3 ++- drivers/video/backlight/backlight.c | 7 +++++-- include/linux/backlight.h | 2 +- 5 files changed, 10 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/acpi/asus_acpi.c b/drivers/acpi/asus_acpi.c index a36436f..4d24efc 100644 --- a/drivers/acpi/asus_acpi.c +++ b/drivers/acpi/asus_acpi.c @@ -1401,7 +1401,7 @@ static int __init asus_acpi_init(void) return -ENODEV; } - asus_backlight_device = backlight_device_register("asus", NULL, + asus_backlight_device = backlight_device_register("asus",NULL,NULL, &asus_backlight_data); if (IS_ERR(asus_backlight_device)) { printk(KERN_ERR "Could not register asus backlight device\n"); diff --git a/drivers/acpi/ibm_acpi.c b/drivers/acpi/ibm_acpi.c index 9658253..ba52b78 100644 --- a/drivers/acpi/ibm_acpi.c +++ b/drivers/acpi/ibm_acpi.c @@ -2072,7 +2072,7 @@ #endif } } - ibm_backlight_device = backlight_device_register("ibm", NULL, + ibm_backlight_device = backlight_device_register("ibm",NULL,NULL, &ibm_backlight_data); if (IS_ERR(ibm_backlight_device)) { printk(IBM_ERR "Could not register ibm backlight device\n"); diff --git a/drivers/acpi/toshiba_acpi.c b/drivers/acpi/toshiba_acpi.c index 2f35f89..88aeccb 100644 --- a/drivers/acpi/toshiba_acpi.c +++ b/drivers/acpi/toshiba_acpi.c @@ -590,7 +590,8 @@ static int __init toshiba_acpi_init(void remove_proc_entry(PROC_TOSHIBA, acpi_root_dir); } - toshiba_backlight_device = backlight_device_register("toshiba", NULL, + toshiba_backlight_device = backlight_device_register("toshiba",NULL, + NULL, &toshiba_backlight_data); if (IS_ERR(toshiba_backlight_device)) { printk(KERN_ERR "Could not register toshiba backlight device\n"); diff --git a/drivers/video/backlight/backlight.c b/drivers/video/backlight/backlight.c index 27597c5..1d97cdf 100644 --- a/drivers/video/backlight/backlight.c +++ b/drivers/video/backlight/backlight.c @@ -190,8 +190,10 @@ static int fb_notifier_callback(struct n * Creates and registers new backlight class_device.
