This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled drm/i915/backlight: setup backlight pwm alternate increment on backlight enable to the 4.8-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: drm-i915-backlight-setup-backlight-pwm-alternate-increment-on-backlight-enable.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.8 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 915b417946030e1f365c63728875cffd8db8e880 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shawn Lee <shawn.c.lee@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 19 Sep 2016 13:35:26 +0300 Subject: drm/i915/backlight: setup backlight pwm alternate increment on backlight enable MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit From: Shawn Lee <shawn.c.lee@xxxxxxxxx> commit 915b417946030e1f365c63728875cffd8db8e880 upstream. Backlight enable is supposed to do a full setup of the backlight. We were missing the PWM alternate increment bit in the south chicken registers on lpt+ pch. This potentially caused a PWM frequency change when the chicken register value was lost e.g. on suspend. v2 by Jani, rebase on the patch caching alt increment Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97486 References: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67454 Cc: Cooper Chiou <cooper.chiou@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Wei Shun Chen <wei.shun.chang@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Gary C Wang <gary.c.wang@xxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Shawn Lee <shawn.c.lee@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@xxxxxxxxx> Link: http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/8265f5935bd31c039ddfc82819d26c2ca1ae9cba.1474281249.git.jani.nikula@xxxxxxxxx (cherry picked from commit e29aff05f239f8dd24e9ee7816fd96726e20105a) Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_panel.c | 18 +++++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 17 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_panel.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_panel.c @@ -841,7 +841,7 @@ static void lpt_enable_backlight(struct { struct drm_i915_private *dev_priv = to_i915(connector->base.dev); struct intel_panel *panel = &connector->panel; - u32 pch_ctl1, pch_ctl2; + u32 pch_ctl1, pch_ctl2, schicken; pch_ctl1 = I915_READ(BLC_PWM_PCH_CTL1); if (pch_ctl1 & BLM_PCH_PWM_ENABLE) { @@ -850,6 +850,22 @@ static void lpt_enable_backlight(struct I915_WRITE(BLC_PWM_PCH_CTL1, pch_ctl1); } + if (HAS_PCH_LPT(dev_priv)) { + schicken = I915_READ(SOUTH_CHICKEN2); + if (panel->backlight.alternate_pwm_increment) + schicken |= LPT_PWM_GRANULARITY; + else + schicken &= ~LPT_PWM_GRANULARITY; + I915_WRITE(SOUTH_CHICKEN2, schicken); + } else { + schicken = I915_READ(SOUTH_CHICKEN1); + if (panel->backlight.alternate_pwm_increment) + schicken |= SPT_PWM_GRANULARITY; + else + schicken &= ~SPT_PWM_GRANULARITY; + I915_WRITE(SOUTH_CHICKEN1, schicken); + } + pch_ctl2 = panel->backlight.max << 16; I915_WRITE(BLC_PWM_PCH_CTL2, pch_ctl2); Patches currently in stable-queue which might be from shawn.c.lee@xxxxxxxxx are queue-4.8/drm-i915-backlight-setup-backlight-pwm-alternate-increment-on-backlight-enable.patch queue-4.8/drm-i915-backlight-setup-and-cache-pwm-alternate-increment-value.patch -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
