[pulseaudio-discuss] [RFC] prevent-dpms-off: Add module to signal DPMS should not happen

Benjamin Berg benjamin at sipsolutions.net

From: Benjamin Berg <bberg at redhat.com>

Whenever an HDMI/DP sink is in use DPMS should not be done by desktop
environments. Add a property to the appropriate ports and inform the DE
that DPMS off should be inhibited whenever a port or sink with the
device.requires.no_dpms_off property is set to boolean true.

TODO: Implement protocol to the DE to signal the situation
---

This is about bug
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97866

As the commit message says, the patch is incomplete and we would also
need a way for desktop environments to consume the information. I could
both see pushing this information by grabbing an Inhibitor at a known DBus
path or making it possibly to query the information from pulseaudio.

Does anyone have an opinion as to what the protocol should look like?

On the GNOME side, this information would be either consumed by Mutter
directly or by gnome-settings-daemon as that is initiating screen
blanking. I don't know about other DEs.

+ * the sink/source itself.
+ *
+ * Note that the sink might not be suspended for short periods of time even
+ * though no playback is happening. This module does not special case these
+ * corner cases for the sake of simplicity.
+ *
+ * As such the following events are relevant:
+ *  - SINK/SOURCE state change
+ *  - SINK/SOURCE unlinking
+ *  - SINK/SOURCE port changes
+ *  - SINK/SOURCE proplist changes
+ *
+ * The device.requires.no_dpms_off property is only checked when a sink/source
+ * becomes active.
