That means acpi video driver will blocked when have opregion declare in DSDT until i915 drm driver call acpi_video_register. The patch fixed BKO#11259, but introduced a side effect: If there have Intel video chip not supported by Intel drm driver, the acpi_video_register will never called, then some machine have good acpi backlight interface implementation will never have acpi brightness sysfs interface for userland control. e.g. any Poulsbo netbook. Matthew's comment to talk about the side effect: Intel IGD opregion and GMA500 There have some machines declare opregion in DSDT but they also implement the backlight control by EC in _BCM. Like: MSI poulsbo netbook. Before introduce the above patch to kernel, those machine's acpi backlight control works fine. On current kernel, those machines backlight control broken. One function workable with old kernel but broken by new kernel, now. > > That's why we add the poulsbo stub driver to enable the acpi video > > because those machine implement acpi _BCL, _BCM interace and control > > brightness by ec. > > I got your idea. > I'm not sure if this is right.

Because acpi/video.h already handle the ACPI VIDEO config check: #if (defined CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO || defined CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO_MODULE) extern int acpi_video_register(void); extern void acpi_video_unregister(void); extern int acpi_video_get_edid(struct acpi_device *device, int type, int device_id, void **edid); #else static inline int acpi_video_register(void) { return 0; } static inline void acpi_video_unregister(void) { return; } Thank's a lot!
