At the moment the other problem I am thinking about also makes a one-internal-panel assumption, and it's true for the particular hardware that I'm working with, but I didn't like that assumption. If there isn't something existing that can be used to link connectors from multiple GPUs together to indicate they actually (potentially) drive the same display panel, then I suppose I'll continue assuming that. But I really do think the >1 display case needs to be more than just an afterthought, even if the solution, for now, is to just have all the drivers agree that a single internal panel is e.g. index 0 of some shared table that the drivers can all consult so that everybody knows which panel is which.

The one backlight device rule mainly applies to the case where the GPU driver's native backlight control is not used, so it needs to find another backlight-device (e.gf. acpi_video or nvidia-wmi-ec-backlight) and proxy that to the properties on the panel's drm_connector.
If the native backlight control of the 2 GPUs is used then their is no such constriant since the GPU driver in that case knows which backlight-device to use itself.
Currently acpi_video_get_backlight_type() has the following return values:
enum acpi_backlight_type {
acpi_backlight_undef = -1,
acpi_backlight_none = 0,
acpi_backlight_video,
acpi_backlight_vendor,
acpi_backlight_native,
};
The idea is to extend this to:
enum acpi_backlight_type {
acpi_backlight_undef = -1,
acpi_backlight_none = 0,
acpi_backlight_video,
acpi_backlight_vendor,
acpi_backlight_native,
acpi_backlight_nvidia_wmi_ec,
acpi_backlight_apple_gmux,
};
And then have *all* (x86) backlight drivers do:
if (acpi_video_get_backlight_type() != acpi_backlight_<my_type>)
return 0;
before registering the backlight-device. This is currently already
done by the acpi_backlight_video and acpi_backlight_vendor type
drivers, but not by the other ones.
In case of there being 2 native GPIU driver backlight-device (with the active GPU being in actual control) then both GPU drivers will do:
if (acpi_video_get_backlight_type() != acpi_backlight_native)
return 0;
and since acpi_video_get_backlight_type() will return acpi_backlight_native in this case, the if condition will be false and both will continue with registering their (native) backlight device. Each offering the new brightness properties on the drm_connector for *their* internal display connection.
One of those 2 internal-panel drm_connectors should always be in a disconnected state, so this way userspace can choose which one to use (the one which is actually connected).
I believe something similar is already done by userspace on devices like this. For native backlight-devices userspace can find the matching GPU by looking at the parent device and I remember at least discussing userspace checking which GPU is connected to the panel to chose which backlight device to use on systems with 2 native backlight devices.
> And then all the userspace software that controls the sysfs backlight interf aces would need to make sure to check to see what backlight devices are exposed every time a brightness change request is made, and not e.g. just once at init and then assume that the backlight devices won't change over the lifetime of whatever backlight manager software we're talking about (e.g. gnome-settings-daemon). I suppose if what the kernel exposes is an abstraction so that userspace only sees one backlight interface per panel in sysfs at any given time, which might actually be connected to one of several different drivers in the backlight subsystem, that would make it a little better, but I still think there would

See above in this case there will be 2 separate drm_connector-s and on a dynamic switch userspace will see a display disconnect + reconnect and userspace really needs to see this to be able to setup things like prime properly.

IIRC that system was discrete GPU only, so there wouldn't be any concern about coordinating panel IDs between different GPU drivers, but there is a very real possibility that a vendor may want to bring back a similar design with hybrid GPUs. The asymmetry of that system always bothered me a bit: I imagine that if the NVIDIA GPUs of that era supported more than two heads per GPU, we may have seen a three-screen notebook.

I don't really have a high level design written down yet.
Basically the plan is to have some generic helper code to allow a GPU driver to proxy a backlight device (including its own native backlight) to a set of properties on the drm_connector object. As mentioned before the idea is to keep the backlight-device API as kernel-internal API for this since we need this for backward compat and we need some sort of internal API between e.g. nvidia-wmi-ec-backligt and the GPU drivers anyways.
It will be the GPU drivers responsibility to pick a backlight-device + connector to pair up. Although I likely will add a helper for that too which
will take the GPU drivers own native backlight-device (may be NULL) + a drm-connector as input and then based on the acpi_video_get_backlight_type() return value find a backlight-device to proxy (iow it may end up not using the native backlight-device even if one is passed in).
I expect the helpers for this to also be suitable for the proprietary nvidia driver, but I guess that also depends on how much of the existing drm-helpers you already use.

Right, we will need to do something similar inside drivers/acpi/video_detect.c
in the future to make acpi_video_get_backlight_type() return
acpi_backlight_nvidia_wmi_ec on systems which use this fw interface.

I did notice that the DRM drivers don't currently seem to have any checks to see whether they should register, and indeed on the EC backlight systems I have tested, with both amdgpu and i915, there is a non-functional sysfs backlight interface exposed by the iGPU. One of the other strange things about the system is the fact that the amdgpu backlight driver works at all.
Right, note that if making the amdgpu driver not register it backlight handler,
then we might add acpi_backlight_nvidia_wmi_ec support to acpi_video_get_backlight_type()
sooner (now) and add a:
if (acpi_video_get_backlight_type() != acpi_backlight_native)
return 0;
to amdgpu now, to fix this.

> This sounds kind of ugly to me. If the backlight control is GPU-agnostic, as is the case here, then associating the backlight_device with a drm_driver doesn't seem right. It sounds like the plan is to move from the current sysfs interface to one that's exposed by the DRM subsystem. If that's the case, I think there should be a way to do so without tying it to a specific GPU driver. e.g., on a muxed system, one or the other GPU might be scanning out at any given time (which is why many of these systems have non-GPU backlight control), so if the interface is GPU-specific, that would be at the very least confusing.
Most muxed systems that I know don't support dynamic switching, so we would tie e.g.
the nvidia-wmi-ec-backlight device to the internal-panel drm_connector of the GPU
which actually is connected to the panel.
For dynamic switching the drm_connector_s_ for the internal panel would both
proxy the nvidia-wmi-ec-backlight device and userspace will use the one for
connector which is actually connected at a given time.

Yeah it is good to discuss this now. It will likely be a couple
of months before I can actually post a RFC series implemeting
my ideas for this.

Alex did report that the backlight was briefly at maximum brightness following resume, before the notifier kicked in and reset it to the correct level, so hopefully hooking it up through pm_ops will be able to catch it early enough to avoid that. And making the refresh unconditional rather than hidden behind a quirk sounds reasonable too; I expect it to be harmless on systems that don't need it.

Poking the mux *shouldn’t* have any effect on what device is controlling the backlight for the panel, since when the system is in dynamic mux mode the EC is always supposed to be in control, but this system is already showing some weird behavior, so it doesn’t hurt to try.
