Subject: [PATCH i-g-t] tests/amdgpu: Discover amdgpu backlight device dynamically instead of hardcoding amdgpu_bl0
Date: Fri, 26 Jun 2026 11:21:59 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260626032211.38353-1-PingLei.Lin@amd.com> (raw)
[Why]
amd_abm builds the backlight sysfs path assuming the amdgpu backlight
device is amdgpu_bl0. The amdgpu backlight device is named amdgpu_bl<N>
where N is derived from the DRM primary node index (see
amdgpu_dm_backlight.c). On systems where the amdgpu DRM node is not
card0 (e.g. simpledrm takes card0 and amdgpu comes up as card1), the
backlight device is amdgpu_bl1, not amdgpu_bl0. The hardcoded
"/sys/class/backlight/amdgpu_bl0" path does not exist, so
backlight_read_max_brightness() and backlight_write_brightness() fail
before any test logic runs, preventing dpms_cycle and the other abm
subtests from executing.
[How]
Add find_backlight_device() to scan /sys/class/backlight for the first
entry beginning with "amdgpu_bl" and store its full path in a
file-scope buffer. Call it from igt_fixture and route the brightness
and max_brightness accessors through the discovered path instead of the
hardcoded amdgpu_bl0 macro. Use igt_require_f() so a machine with no
amdgpu backlight skips cleanly rather than asserting.
