From: Matthew Garrett <mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> The sysfs backlight class provides no mechanism for querying the acceptable brightness for a backlight. The ACPI spec states that values are only valid if they are reported as available by the firmware. Since we can't provide that information to userspace, instead collapse the range to the number of actual values that can be set. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9277 Signed-off-by: Matthew Garrett <mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/acpi/video.c | 20 +++++++++++++------- 1 files changed, 13 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/acpi/video.c b/drivers/acpi/video.c index bd77e81..59639c9 100644 --- a/drivers/acpi/video.c +++ b/drivers/acpi/video.c @@ -292,18 +292,26 @@ static int acpi_video_device_set_state(struct acpi_video_device *device, int sta static int acpi_video_get_brightness(struct backlight_device *bd) { unsigned long cur_level; + int i; struct acpi_video_device *vd = (struct acpi_video_device *)bl_get_data(bd); acpi_video_device_lcd_get_level_current(vd, &cur_level); - return (int) cur_level; + for (i = 2; i < vd->brightness->count; i++) { + if (vd->brightness->levels[i] == cur_level) + /* The first two entries are special - see page 575 + of the ACPI spec 3.0 */ + return i-2; + } + return 0; } static int acpi_video_set_brightness(struct backlight_device *bd) { - int request_level = bd->props.brightness; + int request_level = bd->props.brightness+2; struct acpi_video_device *vd = (struct acpi_video_device *)bl_get_data(bd); - acpi_video_device_lcd_set_level(vd, request_level); + acpi_video_device_lcd_set_level(vd, + vd->brightness->levels[request_level]); return 0; } @@ -652,7 +660,6 @@ static void acpi_video_device_find_cap(struct acpi_video_device *device) kfree(obj); if (device->cap._BCL && device->cap._BCM && device->cap._BQC && max_level > 0){ - unsigned long tmp; static int count = 0; char *name; name = kzalloc(MAX_NAME_LEN, GFP_KERNEL); @@ -660,11 +667,10 @@ static void acpi_video_device_find_cap(struct acpi_video_device *device) return; sprintf(name, "acpi_video%d", count++); - acpi_video_device_lcd_get_level_current(device, &tmp); device->backlight = backlight_device_register(name, NULL, device, &acpi_backlight_ops); - device->backlight->props.max_brightness = max_level; - device->backlight->props.brightness = (int)tmp; + device->backlight->props.max_brightness = device->brightness->count-3; + device->backlight->props.brightness = acpi_video_get_brightness(device->backlight); backlight_update_status(device->backlight); kfree(name); -- 1.5.4.23.gef5b9 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
