了解backlight driver.
1.Backlight Framework
1.1.用户空间
背光设备文件对应于/sys/class/backlight/目录下的文件。/sys/class/backlight是注册的背光设备类型，而在/sys/class/backlight/目录下的文件就是所注册的背光设备。系统完成背光设备类型的注册，代码如下：
drivers/video/backlight/backlight.c:
662 static int __init backlight_class_init(void)
663 {
664 backlight_class = class_create(THIS_MODULE, "backlight"); //注册背光设备类型；
670
671 backlight_class->dev_groups = bl_device_groups; //指定背光设备类型的属性文件；
672 backlight_class->pm = &backlight_class_dev_pm_ops;
673 INIT_LIST_HEAD(&backlight_dev_list);
674 mutex_init(&backlight_dev_list_mutex);
675 BLOCKING_INIT_NOTIFIER_HEAD(&backlight_notifier);
676
677 return 0;
678 }
289 static struct attribute *bl_device_attrs[] = {
290 &dev_attr_bl_power.attr,
291 &dev_attr_brightness.attr,
292 &dev_attr_actual_brightness.attr,
293 &dev_attr_max_brightness.attr,
294 &dev_attr_type.attr,
295 NULL,
296 };
297 ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS(bl_device);
backlight背光子系统的主要就是靠 bl_device_attrs这个类属性，当设置背光值就是向类属性中某个成员写背光值，这个类属性就是给用户的一种接口。
backlight创建bl_power，brightness，actural_brightness，max_brightness四个成员，其中brightness是当前亮度，max_brightness是最大亮度。当用户层通过cat或者echo命令就会触发这些成员。对于这些属性的读写函数，以函数backlight_show_max_brightness为例：
static ssize_t backlight_show_max_brightness(struct device *dev,
struct device_attribute *attr, char *buf)
{
struct backlight_device *bd = to_backlight_device(dev);
return sprintf(buf, "%d\n", bd->props.max_brightness); //输出最大亮度
}
这个函数很简单，重点是引入了几个backlight背光子系统的几个重要的数据结构。
1.2.struct backlight_device
89 struct backlight_device {
90 /* Backlight properties */
91 struct backlight_properties props;
92
93 /* Serialise access to update_status method */
94 struct mutex update_lock;
95
96 /* This protects the 'ops' field. If 'ops' is NULL, the driver that
97 registered this device has been unloaded, and if class_get_devdata()
98 points to something in the body of that driver, it is also invalid. */
99 struct mutex ops_lock;
100 const struct backlight_ops *ops; //背光设备的相关操作函数
101
102 /* The framebuffer notifier block */
103 struct notifier_block fb_notif;
104
105 /* list entry of all registered backlight devices */
106 struct list_head entry;
107
108 struct device dev;
109
110 /* Multiple framebuffers may share one backlight device */
111 bool fb_bl_on[FB_MAX];
112
113 int use_count;
114 };
其中backlight_properties和backlight_ops结构体定义如下：
67 /* This structure defines all the properties of a backlight */
68 struct backlight_properties {
70 int brightness;
72 int max_brightness;
75 int power;
78 int fb_blank;
80 enum backlight_type type;
82 unsigned int state;
87 };
52 struct backlight_ops {
53 unsigned int options;
58 int (*update_status)(struct backlight_device *); //更新背光设备亮度等属性
61 int (*get_brightness)(struct backlight_device *); //获取背光设备亮度
64 int (*check_fb)(struct backlight_device *, struct fb_info *);
65 };
继续看backlight类属性中写的函数，例如设置当前背光值函数backlight_store_brightness：
static ssize_t backlight_store_brightness(struct device *dev,
struct device_attribute *attr, const char *buf, size_t count)
{
int rc;
struct backlight_device *bd = to_backlight_device(dev);
unsigned long brightness;
rc = strict_strtoul(buf, 0, &brightness);
if (rc)
return rc;
rc = -ENXIO;
mutex_lock(&bd->ops_lock);
if (bd->ops) {
if (brightness > bd->props.max_brightness)
rc = -EINVAL;
else {
pr_debug("backlight: set brightness to %lu\n", brightness);
bd->props.brightness =brightness; //传入背光值
backlight_update_status(bd); //调用backlight_update_status设备背光值
rc = count;
}
}
mutex_unlock(&bd->ops_lock);
backlight_generate_event(bd, BACKLIGHT_UPDATE_SYSFS);
return rc;
}
static inline void backlight_update_status(struct backlight_device *bd)
{
mutex_lock(&bd->update_lock);
if (bd->ops && bd->ops->update_status)
bd->ops->update_status(bd); //调用背光操作函数中改变背光状态函数update_status
mutex_unlock(&bd->update_lock);
}
留个悬念： bd->ops->update_status(bd); 会调用哪个函数？
1.3.Backlight APIs：
Register/unregister backlight device
在/sys/class/backlight/目录下注册和移除具体的背光设备：
struct backlight_device *backlight_device_register(const char *name,struct device *dev, void *devdata, struct backlight_ops *ops);
void backlight_device_unregister(struct backlight_device *bd);

Get backlight device/Drop backlight reference
struct backlight_device *devm_of_find_backlight(struct device *dev);
static void devm_backlight_release(void *data);
1
2
Enable backlight/Disable backlight
static inline int backlight_enable(struct backlight_device *bd);
static inline int backlight_disable(struct backlight_device *bd)

2.PWM Backlight
2.1.结构体
struct platform_pwm_backlight_data：
10 struct platform_pwm_backlight_data {
11 int pwm_id;
12 unsigned int max_brightness;
13 unsigned int dft_brightness;
14 unsigned int lth_brightness;
15 unsigned int pwm_period_ns;
16 unsigned int *levels;
17 unsigned int post_pwm_on_delay;
18 unsigned int pwm_off_delay;
19 /* TODO remove once all users are switched to gpiod_* API */
20 int enable_gpio;
21 int (*init)(struct device *dev);
22 int (*notify)(struct device *dev, int brightness);
23 void (*notify_after)(struct device *dev, int brightness);
24 void (*exit)(struct device *dev);
25 int (*check_fb)(struct device *dev, struct fb_info *info);
26 };
struct pwm_bl_data：
28 struct pwm_bl_data {
29 struct pwm_device *pwm;
30 struct device *dev;
31 unsigned int period;
32 unsigned int lth_brightness;
33 unsigned int *levels;
34 bool enabled;
35 struct regulator *power_supply;
36 struct gpio_desc *enable_gpio;
37 unsigned int scale;
38 bool legacy;
39 unsigned int post_pwm_on_delay;
40 unsigned int pwm_off_delay;
41 int (*notify)(struct device *,
42 int brightness);
43 void (*notify_after)(struct device *,
44 int brightness);
45 int (*check_fb)(struct device *, struct fb_info *);
46 void (*exit)(struct device *);
47 };
2.2.sysfs
在/sys/class/backlight/目录下创建pwm backlight node，并注册pwm_backlight_ops。
drivers/video/backlight/pwm_bl.c:
bl = backlight_device_register(dev_name(&pdev->dev), &pdev->dev, pb,
&pwm_backlight_ops, &props);
static const struct backlight_ops pwm_backlight_ops = {
.update_status = pwm_backlight_update_status, //更新背光亮度
.get_brightness = pwm_backlight_get_brightness, //获取背光亮度
};
其中.update_status = pwm_backlight_update_status, 就是bd->ops->update_status(bd); 调用的函数。
2.3.驱动分析
drivers/video/backlight/pwm_bl.c
pwm_backlight_probe
pwm_backlight_parse_dt //解析 dts 中的 brightness-levels、default-brightness-level
//RK3288 还会在这里解析 enable-gpios ，但是 3399 没有，3399 是在 probe 里面用 devm_gpiod_get_optional //获取 enable-gpio 状态的
devm_gpiod_get_optional //实际上就是封装了 gpio_request_one
devm_gpio_request_one //申请背光使能 gpio
devm_pwm_get -> /drivers/pwm/core.c //获得一个pwm
pwm_get ->
of_pwm_get ->
of_parse_phandle_with_args 解析上面dts中的pwms属性.
of_node_to_pwmchip
pwm = pc->of_xlate //最终生成struct pwm_device类型.
pwm_request //申请pwm,防止其他驱动也会使用.
pwm_set_period //pb->pwm->period = data->pwm_period_ns
pwm_get_period //获取period.
dev_set_name(&pdev->dev, "rk28_bl"); //name不能改,用户空间会被用到:/sys/class/backlight/rk28_bl
backlight_device_register -> /drivers/video/baklight/backlight.c //注册标准背光设备
device_register
backlight_register_fb ->
fb_register_client //callback 是 fb_notifier_callback
fb_register_client // 注册内核通知链
backlight_update_status -> //用默认值更新.
bd->ops->update_status ->
pwm_backlight_update_status -> //更新背光亮度
compute_duty_cycle //计算占空比
pwm_config //配置pwm
pwm_backlight_power_on //enable背光
platform_set_drvdata //可以将 pdev 保存成平台总线设备的私有数据，以后再要使用它时只需调用 platform_get_drvdata
2.3.1.backlight_device_register
backlight_register_fb
指定背光通知回调函数fb_notifier_callback，并注册到通知链里。
Linux 内核中每个模块之间都是独立的，如果模块需要感知其他模块的事件，就需要用到内核通知链。最典型的通知链应用就是 LCD 和 TP 之间，TP 需要根据 LCD 的亮灭来控制是否打开关闭触摸功能。通俗的讲，LCD 会创建一个函数链表，TP 会将 suspend 和 resume 函数添加到链表中，当 LCD 发生亮灭变化时，会根据情况执行链表上所有对应的函数，函数会根据不同的动作执行 TP 的 suspend 和 resume 函数。
1>.TP 驱动背光通知回调函数
probe 函数里指定背光通知回调函数gtp_fb_notifier_callback，并注册到通知链里。gtp_fb_notifier_callback函数根据收到的通知event信息调用TS resume 或suspend 函数。
ts->notifier.notifier_call = gtp_fb_notifier_callback;
fb_register_client(&ts->notifier);
/* frame buffer notifier block control the suspend/resume procedure */
static int gtp_fb_notifier_callback(struct notifier_block *noti, unsigned long event, void *data)
{
struct fb_event *ev_data = data;
struct goodix_ts_data *ts = container_of(noti, struct goodix_ts_data, notifier);
int *blank;
if (ev_data && ev_data->data && event == FB_EVENT_BLANK && ts) {
blank = ev_data->data;
if (*blank == FB_BLANK_UNBLANK) {
GTP_DEBUG("Resume by fb notifier.");
goodix_ts_resume(ts);
}
else if (*blank == FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN) {
GTP_DEBUG("Suspend by fb notifier.");
goodix_ts_suspend(ts);
}
}
return 0;
}
2.3.2.pwm_backlight_update_status
static int pwm_backlight_update_status(struct backlight_device *bl)
{
struct pwm_bl_data *pb = bl_get_data(bl);
int brightness = bl->props.brightness;
int duty_cycle;
if (bl->props.power != FB_BLANK_UNBLANK ||
bl->props.fb_blank != FB_BLANK_UNBLANK ||
bl->props.state & BL_CORE_FBBLANK)
brightness = 0;
if (pb->notify)
brightness = pb->notify(pb->dev, brightness);
if (brightness > 0) {
duty_cycle = compute_duty_cycle(pb, brightness);
pwm_config(pb->pwm, duty_cycle, pb->period);
pwm_backlight_power_on(pb, brightness);
} else
pwm_backlight_power_off(pb);
if (pb->notify_after)
pb->notify_after(pb->dev, brightness);
return 0;
}
/include/uapi/linux/fb.h:
enum {
/* screen: unblanked, hsync: on, vsync: on */
FB_BLANK_UNBLANK = VESA_NO_BLANKING,
/* screen: blanked, hsync: on, vsync: on */
FB_BLANK_NORMAL = VESA_NO_BLANKING + 1,
/* screen: blanked, hsync: on, vsync: off */
FB_BLANK_VSYNC_SUSPEND = VESA_VSYNC_SUSPEND + 1,
/* screen: blanked, hsync: off, vsync: on */
FB_BLANK_HSYNC_SUSPEND = VESA_HSYNC_SUSPEND + 1,
/* screen: blanked, hsync: off, vsync: off */
FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN = VESA_POWERDOWN + 1
};
2.3.3.计算占空比
static int compute_duty_cycle(struct pwm_bl_data *pb, int brightness)
{
/*一般情况下这个值都为0*/
unsigned int lth = pb->lth_brightness;
/*占空比*/
int duty_cycle;
/*pb->levels这个表格就是从dts节点brightness-levels中获取的,
假设进来的参数brightness是254,那么得到的duty_cycle就是1,
如果没有这个表格,那么就直接是进来的亮度值.*/
if (pb->levels)
duty_cycle = pb->levels[brightness];
else
duty_cycle = brightness;
/*假设这里lth是0,那么公式就是duty_cycle * pb->period / pb->scale
pb->period也就是dts节点 pwms 的第三个参数周期值为 25000
pb->scale为pb->levels数组中的最大值
所以这个公式就是按照将Android的纯数值转换成事件周期值对应的占空比.*/
return (duty_cycle * (pb->period - lth) / pb->scale) + lth;
}
2.3.4.更新背光
pwm_backlight_probe 函数，解析dts，调用backlight_update_status来改变背光；
sysfs - brightness_store（drivers/video/backlight/backlight.c），设置brightness，然后调用backlight_update_status来改变背光；
backlight_suspend/backlight_resume；
backlight_register_fb(new_bd); ->fb_notifier_callback 调用backlight_update_status来改变背光； (drivers/video/backlight/backlight.c)
static int fb_notifier_callback(struct notifier_block *self,
unsigned long event, void *data)
{
...
/*只处理亮屏和灭屏事件.*/
/* If we aren't interested in this event, skip it immediately ... */
if (event != FB_EVENT_BLANK && event != FB_EVENT_CONBLANK)
return 0;
...
if (bd->ops)
if (!bd->ops->check_fb ||
bd->ops->check_fb(bd, evdata->info)) {
bd->props.fb_blank = *(int *)evdata->data;
//亮屏情况
if (bd->props.fb_blank == FB_BLANK_UNBLANK)
bd->props.state &= ~BL_CORE_FBBLANK;
//灭屏时
else
bd->props.state |= BL_CORE_FBBLANK;
backlight_update_status(bd);
}
...
}
2.4.Dtsi settings

};
说明：
pwms = <&pwm0 0 25000 0>;
第一个参数 表示此背光接在 pwm0 上;
第二个参数 表示 index 为 0，pwm0 下只有 1个 pwm，所以填 0
第三个参数 表示周期为 25000ns，即频率 为 40k
第四个参数 表示极性，0 正极性，1 负极性
正极性 0 表示 背光为正极 0～255 ，占空比从 0～100% 变化
负极性 1 表示 背光为负极 255～0 ，占空比从 100～0% 变化
default-brightness-level = <50>;
表示默认的背光，它存在于开机时候背光初始化到安卓。设置下来新的背光这段时间，default-brightness-level = < 50 > 表示为第 50 个元素的背光亮度。
enable-gpios = <&gpio 71 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
enable-gpios;表示背光使能脚，这个根据电路原理图配置即可；有的硬件没有这个背光使能脚，那么将这个配置删除，背光驱动通过配置 brightness-levels 数组的第 0 个元素将显示调黑。
2.4.1.enable-gpios 代码解析
