backlight: lcd: Make lcd_class constant

2024-05-10T14:44:28+00:00

Since commit 43a7206b0963 ("driver core: class: make class_register() take a const *"), the driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only memory, so move the lcd_class structure to be declared at build time placing it into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically allocated at boot time.

backlight: lcd: Constify lcd_ops

2024-05-03T09:44:42+00:00

'struct lcd_ops' passed in lcd_device_register() is not modified by core backlight code, so it can be made const for code safety. This allows drivers to also define the structure as const.

driver core: class: remove module * from class_create()

2023-03-17T14:16:33+00:00

The module pointer in class_create() never actually did anything, and it shouldn't have been requred to be set as a parameter even if it did something. So just remove it and fix up all callers of the function in the kernel tree at the same time. Cc: "Rafael J.

backlight: drop EARLY_EVENT_BLANK support

2019-08-05T19:52:53+00:00

There was no users left - so drop the code to support EARLY_EVENT_BLANK. This patch removes the support in backlight, and drop the notifier in fbmem. That EARLY_EVENT_BLANK is not used can be verified that no driver set any of: lcd_ops.early_set_power() lcd_ops.r_early_set_power() Noticed while browsing backlight code for other reasons. v2: - Fix changelog to say "EARLY_EVENT_BLANK" (Daniel) Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg Cc: Lee Jones Cc: Daniel Thompson Cc: Jingoo Han Cc: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz Cc: Daniel Vetter Cc: Sam Ravnborg Cc: Maarten Lankhorst Cc: "Michał Mirosław" Cc: Peter Rosin Cc: Gerd Hoffmann Cc: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org Cc: linux-fbdev@vger.kernel.org Reviewed-by: Daniel Vetter Acked-by: Daniel Thompson Acked-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz Acked-by: Lee Jones Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20190725143224.GB31803@ravnborg.org

backlight: simplify lcd notifier

2019-06-13T08:07:20+00:00

With all the work I've done on replacing fb notifier calls with direct calls into fbcon the backlight/lcd notifier is the only user left. It will only receive events now that it cares about, hence we can remove this check.

fbcon: replace FB_EVENT_MODE_CHANGE/_ALL with direct calls

2019-06-12T18:30:21+00:00

Create a new wrapper function for this, feels like there's some refactoring room here between the two modes. v2: backlight notifier is also interested in the mode change event, it calls lcd->set_mode, of which there are 3 implementations. Thanks to Maarten for spotting this. So we keep that. We can ditch the differentiation between mode change and all mode changes (because backlight notifier doesn't care), and we can drop the FBINFO_MISC_USEREVENT stuff too, because that's just to prevent recursion between fbmem.c and fbcon.c. While at it flatten the control flow a bit. v3: Need to add a static inline to the dummy function. v4: Add missing #include to sh_mob (Sam).

backlight: lcd: Fix race condition during register

2017-01-04T11:37:31+00:00

Once device_register is called for a device its attributes might be accessed. As the callbacks of a lcd device's attributes make use of the lcd_ops, the respective member must be setup before calling device_register. Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-König Signed-off-by: Lee Jones

drivers/video/backlight/lcd.c: call put_device if device_register fails

2014-01-31T00:56:54+00:00

Currently we kfree the container of the device which failed to register. This is wrong as the last reference is not given up with a put_device call. Also, now that we have put_device() callen, we no longer need the kfree as the new_ld->dev.release function will take care of kfreeing the associated memory.
