To use this patch, you need enable VIDEO_OUTPUT_CONTROL and ACPI_VIDEO. After loading output.ko and video.ko, you would have /sys/class/video_output and several device acpi_videoNum there. For example, I got acpi_video0, acpi_video1,acpi_video2,and acpi_video3 under /sys/class/video_output on my T40. I can query the status of output device0 by running " cat /sys/class/video_output/acpi_video0 " The return value is defined in ACPI SPEC B.5.5 _DCS(Return the Status of Output Device). Also you can turn off video1 and turn on video0 by " echo 0 > acpi_video1; echo 0x80000000 > acpi_video0". Please reference ACPI SPEC B.5.7 _DSS for the parameter definition. Also please note that it may or may NOT works purely depending on if your vendor providing correct ACPI video extension support in bios. the driver output.ko and video.ko just works like a interface to invoke BIOS.
The update patch: Add output switch sysfs class support for ACPI video driver. signed-off-by: Luming Yu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ---- acpi/Kconfig | 2 +- acpi/video.c | 40 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ video/Kconfig | 7 +++++++ video/Makefile | 3 +++ 4 files changed, 51 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/acpi/Kconfig b/drivers/acpi/Kconfig index 139f41f..eb4855f 100644 --- a/drivers/acpi/Kconfig +++ b/drivers/acpi/Kconfig @@ -124,7 +124,7 @@ config ACPI_BUTTON config ACPI_VIDEO tristate "Video" - depends on X86 && BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE + depends on X86 && BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE && VIDEO_OUTPUT_CONTROL help This driver implement the ACPI Extensions For Display Adapters for integrated graphics devices on motherboard, as specified in diff --git a/drivers/acpi/sleep/main.c b/drivers/acpi/sleep/main.c diff --git a/drivers/acpi/video.c b/drivers/acpi/video.c index 00d25b3..39273da 100644 --- a/drivers/acpi/video.c +++ b/drivers/acpi/video.c @@ -33,6 +33,7 @@ #include <linux/seq_file.h> #include <linux/backlight.h> +#include <linux/video_output.h> #include <asm/uaccess.h> #include <acpi/acpi_bus.h> @@ -169,6 +170,7 @@ struct acpi_video_device { struct acpi_device *dev; struct acpi_video_device_brightness *brightness; struct backlight_device *backlight; + struct output_device *output_dev; }; /* bus */ @@ -272,6 +274,10 @@ static int acpi_video_get_next_level(struct acpi_video_device *device, u32 level_current, u32 event); static void acpi_video_switch_brightness(struct acpi_video_device *device, int event); +static int acpi_video_device_get_state(struct acpi_video_device *device, + unsigned long *state); +static int acpi_video_output_get(struct output_device *od); +static int acpi_video_device_set_state(struct acpi_video_device *device, int state); /*backlight device sysfs support*/ static int acpi_video_get_brightness(struct backlight_device *bd) @@ -297,6 +303,28 @@ static struct backlight_ops acpi_backlight_ops = { .update_status = acpi_video_set_brightness, }; +/*video output device sysfs support*/ +static int acpi_video_output_get(struct output_device *od) +{ + unsigned long state; + struct acpi_video_device *vd = + (struct acpi_video_device *)class_get_devdata(&od->class_dev); + acpi_video_device_get_state(vd, &state); + return (int)state; +} + +static int acpi_video_output_set(struct output_device *od) +{ + unsigned long state = od->request_state; + struct acpi_video_device *vd= + (struct acpi_video_device *)class_get_devdata(&od->class_dev); + return acpi_video_device_set_state(vd, state); +} + +static struct output_properties acpi_output_properties = { + .set_state = acpi_video_output_set, + .get_status = acpi_video_output_get, +}; /* -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Video Management -------------------------------------------------------------------------- */ @@ -626,6 +654,17 @@ static void acpi_video_device_find_cap(struct acpi_video_device *device) kfree(name); } + if (device->cap._DCS && device->cap._DSS){ + static int count = 0; + char *name; + name = kzalloc(MAX_NAME_LEN, GFP_KERNEL); + if (!name) + return; + sprintf(name, "acpi_video%d", count++); + device->output_dev = video_output_register(name, + NULL, device, &acpi_output_properties); + kfree(name); + } return; } @@ -1669,6 +1708,7 @@ static int acpi_video_bus_put_one_device(struct acpi_video_device *device) ACPI_DEVICE_NOTIFY, acpi_video_device_notify); backlight_device_unregister(device->backlight); + video_output_unregister(device->output_dev); return 0; } diff --git a/drivers/video/Kconfig b/drivers/video/Kconfig index 8372ace..e96caa9 100644 --- a/drivers/video/Kconfig +++ b/drivers/video/Kconfig @@ -6,6 +6,13 @@ menu "Graphics support" source "drivers/video/backlight/Kconfig" +config VIDEO_OUTPUT_CONTROL + tristate "Lowlevel video output switch controls" + default m + help + This framework adds support for low-level control of the video + output switch. + config FB tristate "Support for frame buffer devices" ---help--- diff --git a/drivers/video/Makefile b/drivers/video/Makefile index 760305c..f5ab032 100644 --- a/drivers/video/Makefile +++ b/drivers/video/Makefile @@ -108,3 +108,6 @@ obj-$(CONFIG_FB_OF) += offb.o # the test framebuffer is last obj-$(CONFIG_FB_VIRTUAL) += vfb.o + +#video output switch sysfs driver +obj-$(CONFIG_VIDEO_OUTPUT_CONTROL) += output.o On 4/25/07, Randy Dunlap <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
