MediaTek MT6370 is a SubPMIC consisting of a single cell battery charger
with ADC monitoring, RGB LEDs, dual channel flashlight, WLED backlight
driver, display bias voltage supply, one general purpose LDO, and the
USB Type-C & PD controller complies with the latest USB Type-C and PD
standards.

This adds support for MediaTek MT6370 Backlight driver. It's commonly used
to drive the display WLED. There are 4 channels inside, and each channel
supports up to 30mA of current capability with 2048 current steps in
exponential or linear mapping curves.

Does the MT6372 support more steps than this? In other words does it use
a fourteen bit scale or does it use an 11-bit scale at a different
register location?

This somewhat depends on the answer to the first question above, but
what is the point of this shifting? If the range is 14-bit then the
driver should set max_brightness to 16384 and present the full range of
the MT6372 to the user.

Especially when using linear mappings (which are a totally pointless
scale to use for a backlight) the extra steps are useful for backlight
animation.

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for your reply.
Yes, MT6372 can support 16384 steps and uses a 14-bit scale register
location. But the maximum current of each
channel of MT6372 is the same as MT6370 and MT6371, both 30mA.
The main reason why MT6372 is designed this way is that one of the
customers asked for a more delicate
adjustment of the backlight brightness. But other customers actually
do not have such requirements.
Therefore, we designed it this way for maximum compatibility in software.

So should we make all 16384 steps of MT6372 available to users?
Does that mean the DTS needs to be modified as well?
Or, for the reasons, I have just explained (just one customer has this
requirement), then we do not make any changes for compatibility
reasons?
Thanks.

I don't think that is an acceptable approach for the upstream kernel.

To be "compatible" with (broken) software this driver ends up reducing
the capability of the upstream kernel to the point it becomes unable to
meet requirements for delicate adjustment (requirements that were
sufficiently important to change the hardware design so you could meet
them).

Yes.


> Does that mean the DTS needs to be modified as well?

Yes... the property to set initial brightness needs a 14-bit range.

It would also be a good idea to discuss with the DT maintainers whether
you should introduce a second compatible string (ending 6372) in order
to allow the DT validation checks to detect accidental use of MT6372
ranges on MT6370 hardware.

I'd be curious what the compatiblity reasons are. In other words what
software breaks?

Normally the userspace backlight code reads the max_brightness property
and configures things accordingly (and therefore if you the component
that breaks is something like an Android HAL then fix the HAL instead).

Sorry for I used of the wrong word, I mean is 'driver', not
higher-level software

Originally, we just wanted to use one version of the driver to cover
all the SubPMIC of the 6370 series(6370~6372).
And, the users who use this series SubPMIC can directly apply this
driver to drive the backlight device without knowing the underlying
hardware.
To achieve this goal, we have designed it to look like this.

hmmm... I have just thought about it,
maybe I can just modify the maximum value of default-brightness and
max-brightness in DT to 16384,
modify the description and add some comments.

And then on the driver side,
we can use mt6370_check_vendor_info( ) to determine whether it is MT6372.
If no, then in mt6370_bl_update_status(), first brightness_val / 8 and then set.
In mt6370_bl_get_brightness(), first brightness_val * 8 and then return;

If I do this change, does this meet your requirements?

The reason is as above. We just hope the users who use this series SubPMIC can
directly apply this driver to drive the backlight device without
knowing the underlying hardware.
Not software breaks.

You don't need a second driver to support two different values for
max-brightness. The same driver can support both ranges with nothing but
a small tweak during the driver probe function.

What for?

All the other backlight drivers (there are >130 of them) expose the hardware
range[1]. Most userspaces will already know how to handle that (by reading
the max_brightness and, if it is recent enough, also the scale
properties in sysfs).

I'm still don't understand why one should fix a bug in the userspace by
implementing a hack in the driver.


[1] Well almost. The PWM backlight driver does contain support for
    dead-spot avoidance and to allow the adoption of exponential scale.
    However this  purpose of these is based on how PWM backlights work

Not really.

It's still misleading a sophisticated userspace, which may make bad
rounding decisions for backlight animation, in order to support a broken
one.

As above, ignoring the max_brightness property is a bug in the
userspace. I'm still unclear why sending faked ranges to userspace
it a better solution than fixing the userspace.

Ok, I got it!
If I add a second compatible string (like 'mediatek,mt6372-backlight')
in the DT section,
and append 'if-then-else' to determine the correct maximum value of
'default-brightness' and 'max-brightness',
Also, I will append 'bled exponential mode' to make user control using
linear or exponential mode.
These changes I will explain to DT's maintainer again.

Back to the driver section,
do I still need to use the register to confirm again whether this
SubPMIC used now is MT6372 and record this information? (using
'mt6370_check_vendor_info()')
I am afraid that the user who uses the MT6370 hardware, but the DT
compatible string is set to 'mediatek,mt6372-backlight'.
This may cause errors when update/get brightness values.
So I hope the driver here can check again to make sure the
'default-brightness', 'max-brightness', can be updated/got correctly.
I don't know if this will make you feel redundant if I do this??

Thank you so much!

I'd be very pleased to see support for exponential mode added: it's a
much better way to control LEDs and backlights.

Excellent. I know DT maintainers are copied into this thread but they
will probably not be following this patch's thread so it is better to
discuss in the mail thread for the DT bindings!

Yes, it's good idea to check the hardware model during probe. I'd
suggest just reporting this as an error ("Buggy DT, wrong compatible
string") rather than trying to re-intepret the parameters.
