[PATCH 0/5] Add custom brightness curve support

[PATCH 0/5] Add custom brightness curve support

[Mario Limonciello]

Some OEMs support custom brightness curves where the ATIF method includes
a collection of data points where the input signal is mapped out to
percentage of luminance. This series shuffles around some code to add in
the ability to do that mapping in amdgpu_dm when brightness is set.

Mario Limonciello (5):
  drm/amd: Copy entire structure in amdgpu_acpi_get_backlight_caps()
  drm/amd: Pass luminance data to amdgpu_dm_backlight_caps
  drm/amd/display: Avoid operating on copies of backlight caps
  drm/amd/display: Add support for custom brightness curve
  drm/amd/display: Add a new dcdebugmask to allow turning off brightness
    curve

[Mario Limonciello]

As new members are introduced to the structure copying the entire
structure will help avoid missing them.

[PATCH 2/5] drm/amd: Pass luminance data to amdgpu_dm_backlight_caps

[Mario Limonciello]

this curve into amdgpu_dm add it to the structures.

Making a copy of the backlight caps structure between uses is unnecessary.
Refer to pointers to the same structure when using it.

[PATCH 4/5] drm/amd/display: Add support for custom brightness curve

[Mario Limonciello]

Some systems specify in the firmware a brightness curve that better
reflects the characteristics of the panel used. This is done in the
form of data points and matching luminance percentage.

When converting a userspace requested brightness value use that curve
to convert to a firmware intended brightness value.

[PATCH 5/5] drm/amd/display: Add a new dcdebugmask to allow turning off brightness curve

[Mario Limonciello]

Upgrading the kernel may cause some systems that were previously not using
a firmware specified brightness curve to use one.

In the event of problems with this curve (for example an interpolation
error) add a new dcdebugmask value that can be used to turn it off.  Also
add an info message to show that custom brightness curves are currently in
use.

I'd be careful here lest someone changes the definition of struct amdgpu_dm_luminance_data not realizing that it used here as well.  The ACPI definition should be separate IMHO.
