2012-07-28acpi/video_detect: blacklist samsung x360Corentin Chary1-0/+29
On Samsung X360, the BIOS will set a flag (VDRV) if the generic ACPI backlight device is used. This flag will definitively break the backlight interface (even the vendor interface) untill next reboot. It's why we should prevent video.ko from being used here and we can't rely on a later call to acpi_video_unregister().

2012-07-28acpi: add a way to promote/demote vendor backlight driversCorentin Chary1-2/+29
Instead of adding a big blacklist in video_detect.c to set ACPI_VIDEO_BACKLIGHT_DMI_VENDOR correctly, let external modules promote or demote themselves when they know the generic video module won't work. Currently drivers where using acpi_video_unregister() directly but: - That didn't respect any acpi_backlight=[video|vendor] parameter provided by the user. - Any later call to acpi_video_register() would still re-load the generic video module (and some gpu drivers are doing that). This patch fix those two issues. Signed-off-by: Corentin Chary <corentin.chary@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Matthew Garrett <mjg@redhat.com>
2012-03-20platform/x86: drop deprecated asus_acpi driverCorentin Chary1-1/+1
asus_acpi only support old models, it has been deprecated since 2009 in favor of asus-laptop, it's not built by any (sane) distro, so it is time to say good bye. Thanks to Julien Lerouge and Karol Kozimor for the work they have done on it, I would never have wrote asus-laptop and other asus related drivers without asus_acpi.

2011-11-01acpi: add export.h to files using THIS_MODULE/EXPORT_SYMBOLPaul Gortmaker1-0/+1
These files were relying on module.h to come in via the path in an include/acpi header file, but we don't want to have instances of module.h being included from include/* files if it can be avoided. Have the files include export.h instead. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-02-12ACPI / Video: Probe for output switch method when searching video devices.Michael Karcher1-0/+5
This patch reverts one hunk of 677bd810eedce61edf15452491781ff046b92edc "ACPI video: remove output switching control", namely the removal of probing for _DOS/_DOD when searching for video devices. This is needed on some Fujitsu Laptops (at least S7110, P8010) for the ACPI backlight interface to work, as an these machines, neither ROM nor posting methods are available, and after removal of output switching, none of the caps triggers, which prevents the backlight search from being entered. Tested on a Fujitsu Lifebook S7110 and Fujitsu Lifebook P8010. This probably fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27312 for the people who have no entry in /sys/class/backlight. This is the complete list of public (starting with "_") methods implemented on the S7110, BIOS rev 1.34: \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0._ADR \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0._DOS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0._DOD \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.CRT._ADR \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.CRT._DCS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.CRT._DGS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.CRT._DSS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._ADR \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._BCL \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._BCM \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._BQC \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._DCS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._DGS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._DSS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._PS0 \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._PS3 \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.TV._ADR \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.TV._DCS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.TV._DGS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.TV._DSS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.DVI._ADR \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.DVI._DCS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.DVI._DGS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.DVI._DSS Signed-off-by: Michael Karcher <kernel@mkarcher.dialup.fu-berlin.de> Acked-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2009-10-13ACPI: video: Loosen strictness of video bus detection codeStefan Bader1-1/+1
BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/333386 Currently a video bus device must (beside other criteria) define _DOD and _DOS methods to be considered a video device. Some broken BIOSes prevented working backlight control by only defining both for one (non-existing bus) and only _DOD for the rest. With this patch in place the other bus definitions were considered too and backlight control started to work again.

2008-11-08ACPI video: if no ACPI backlight support, use vendor driversThomas Renninger1-0/+268
If an ACPI graphics device supports backlight brightness functions (cmp. with latest ACPI spec Appendix B), let the ACPI video driver control backlight and switch backlight control off in vendor specific ACPI drivers (asus_acpi, thinkpad_acpi, eeepc, fujitsu_laptop, msi_laptop, sony_laptop, acer-wmi). Currently it is possible to load above drivers and let both poke on the brightness HW registers, the video and vendor specific ACPI drivers -> bad. This patch provides the basic support to check for BIOS capabilities before driver loading time. Driver specific modifications are in separate follow up patches. "acpi_backlight=vendor" Prever vendor driver over ACPI driver for backlight. "acpi_backlight=video" (default) Prever ACPI driver over vendor driver for backlight.
