2013-04-25ACPI: video: correct acpi_video_bus_add error processingAaron Lu
acpi_video_bus_get_devices() may fail due to some video output device doesn't have the _ADR method, and in this case, the error processing is to simply free the video structure in acpi_video_bus_add(), while leaving those already registered video output devices in the wild, which means for some video output device, we have already registered a backlight interface and installed a notification handler for it. So it can happen when user is using this system, on hotkey pressing, the notification handler will send a keycode through a non-existing input device, causing kernel freeze. To solve this problem, free all those already registered video output devices once something goes wrong in acpi_video_bus_get_devices(), so that no wild backlight interfaces and notification handlers exist.

2013-04-22acpi: video: enhance the quirk detect logic of _BQCAaron Lu
Currently we decide if the _BQC is using index by first setting the level to maximum, and then check if _BQC returned maximum; if not, we say it is using index. This is not true for some buggy systems, where the _BQC method will always return a constant value(e.g. 0 or 100 for the two broken system) and thus break the current logic. So this patch tries to enhance the quirk detect logic for _BQC: we do this by picking a test_level, it can be the maximum level or the mininum one based on some condition. And we don't make the assumption that if _BQC returned a value that is not what we just set, it must be using an index. Instead, we will compare the value returned from _BQC and if it doesn't match, see if the returned value is an index. And if still no, clear the capability of _BQC.

2013-03-25ACPI / video: Fix brightness control initialization for some laptops.Danny Baumann
In particular, this fixes brightness control initialization for all devices that return index values from _BQC and don't happen to have the initial index set by the BIOS in their _BCL table. One example for that is the Dell Inspiron 15R SE (model number 7520). What happened for those devices is that acpi_init_brightness queried the initial brightness by calling acpi_video_device_lcd_get_level_current. This called _BQC, which returned e.g. 13. As _BQC_use_index isn't determined at this point (and thus has its initial value of 0), the index isn't converted into the actual level. As '13' isn't present in the _BCL list, *level is later overwritten with brightness->curr, which was initialized to max_level (100) before. Later in acpi_init_brightness, level_old (with the value 100) is used as an index into the _BCL table, which causes a value outside of the actual table to be used as input into acpi_video_device_lcd_set_level(). Depending on the (undefined) value of that location, this call will fail, causing the brightness control for the device in question not to be enabled. Fix that by returning the raw value returned by the _BQC call in the initialization case.

2012-09-20ACPI video: allow events handlers to veto the keypressLuca Tettamanti
The standard video events may be overloaded for device specific purposes. For example AMD ACPI interface overloads ACPI_VIDEO_NOTIFY_PROBE (0x81) to signal AMD-specific events. In such cases we don't want to send the keypress (KEY_SWITCHVIDEOMODE) to the userspace because the user did not press the mode switch key (the spurious keypress confuses the DE which usually changes the display configuration and messes up a dual-screen setup).

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2010-03-16backlight: Allow properties to be passed at registrationMatthew Garrett
Values such as max_brightness should be set before backlights are registered, but the current API doesn't allow that. Add a parameter to backlight_device_register and update drivers to ensure that they set this correctly.

2010-03-14ACPI video: Be more liberal in validating _BQC behaviourMatthew Garrett
Right now, if _BQC returns a value we don't understand we immediately invalidate it. Change this behaviour so we only invalidate it if it continues to give an invalid answer after we've already set a brightness.

2009-12-30ACPI video: Prune dupe video devices, unless "video.allow_duplicates"Zhang Rui
Some buggy BIOS exports multiple ACPI video bus devices for the same VGA controller, and multiple backlight control methods as well. This messes up the ACPI video backlight control. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13577 With this patch applied, only the FIRST ACPI video bus device under a PCI device node is bind to ACPI video driver by default. If the first ACPI video bus device doesn't work well, we can use video.allow_duplicates=1 to go back to the old behavior.
