[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v7 16/16] drm/i915: panel: Use atomic PWM API for devs with an external PWM controller

Tue Aug 25 10:01:06 UTC 2020


Now that the PWM drivers which we use have been converted to the atomic
PWM API, we can move the i915 panel code over to using the atomic PWM API.

The removes a long standing FIXME and this removes a flicker where
the backlight brightness would jump to 100% when i915 loads even if
using the fastset path.

Note that this commit also simplifies pwm_disable_backlight(), by dropping
the intel_panel_actually_set_backlight(..., 0) call. This call sets the
PWM to 0% duty-cycle. I believe that this call was only present as a
workaround for a bug in the pwm-crc.c driver where it failed to clear the
PWM_OUTPUT_ENABLE bit. This is fixed by an earlier patch in this series.

After the dropping of this workaround, the usleep call, which seems
unnecessary to begin with, has no useful effect anymore, so drop that too.

Changes in v7:
- Fix a u64 divide leading to undefined reference to `__udivdi3' errors on 32 bit
  platforms by casting the divisor to an unsigned long

Changes in v6:
- Drop the pwm_get_period() check in pwm_setup(), it is now longer needed
  now that we use pwm_get_relative_duty_cycle()

Changes in v4:
- Add a note to the commit message about the dropping of the
  intel_panel_actually_set_backlight() and usleep() calls from
  pwm_disable_backlight()
- Use the pwm_set/get_relative_duty_cycle() helpers instead of using DIY code
  for this
