When the backlight support is disabled, the driver fails to build:

drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/dispnv50/disp.c: In function 'nv50_sor_atomic_disable':
drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/dispnv50/disp.c:1665:59: error: 'struct nouveau_connector' has no member named 'backlight'

The patch that introduced the problem already contains some #ifdef
checks, so just add another one that makes it build again.

Can we just toss the idea that BACKTLIGHT=n is a reasonable config for
drm drivers using backlights, and add depends BACKLIGHT to all of
them?

I mean this is a perfect source of continued patch streams to keep us
all busy, but beyond that I really don't see the point ... I frankly
have better things to do, and especially with the big drivers we have
making backlight optional saves comparitively nothing.

ehhh, get rid of DRM_NOUVEAU_BACKLIGHT I meant.

Yes! I'd definitely be in favor of that, I've wasted way too much time trying
to sort through dependency loops and other problems with backlight support.

Maybe we should leave the drivers/video/fbdev/ drivers untouched in this
regard, at least for the moment, but for the drivers/gpu/drm users of
backlight that would be a nice simplification, and even the smallest ones
are unlikely to be used on systems that are too memory constrained to
deal with 4KB extra .text.

what's actually the use case of compiling with
CONFIG_DRM_NOUVEAU_BACKLIGHT=n anyway?

Yeah I think we can do this entirely ad-hoc, i.e. any time the backlight
wheel wobbles off again we nail it down for good for that driver with a
depends on BACKGLIGHT and remove any lingering #ifdef all over.

If you want maybe start out with the biggest drm drivers in a series, I
think if nouveau/amdgpu/i915 folks ack this you're good to go to just
convert as things get in the way.

Yeah - I'm fine with this IMHO, at least for the drivers actually supporting
backlights in some manner (I assume this is most of them though)

Dunno. In this case it was just a randconfig. Still, it needs to be
handled in some way - such as the other suggestion in this thread.

sure, I was just curious if there was a specific use case or just
something random as you mentioned.

I think this is purely done because of tradition. A long time ago, we had
tiny framebuffer drivers and most PCs did not have backlights, so it
made sense to leave this optional.

This was probably just always carried over.

okay. I think I will write a patch for nouveau then and send it out soonish

Yeah I think we can do this entirely ad-hoc, i.e. any time the backlight wheel wobbles off again we nail it down for good for that driver with a depends on BACKGLIGHT and remove any lingering #ifdef all over.

If you want maybe start out with the biggest drm drivers in a series, I think if nouveau/amdgpu/i915 folks ack this you're good to go to just convert as things get in the way.
