Well, we have "default-brightness" and "default-brightness-level" used by 1 driver each. But default-brightness-level is much more commonly used (in dts files) since it is in the pwm backlight binding, so we should go with it. I'd like to see this moved to a common backlight doc. Really, I think all the backlight documentation should be merged with LEDs docs. Things like "default-on" are common. But I won't ask to do that here.

Set to max brightness? 75%? This could also be used for the bootloader to communicate to the kernel what the current level is if it is not readable. I've seen one backlight recently which you change the level by doing some number of pulses on a gpio and a long pulse to turn off. So there is no way to know current level without turning off the backlight (unless you hardcode the bootloader's level in the kernel like the vendor did).

I did chat w/ Bjorn a bit about that on irc.. his concern was some arbitrary percentage (like 50%) might be more or less bright depending on the device (although that implies to me that maybe we should have min and max bindings as well, rather than just assuming hw limits? idk) my preference is the default is somehow at least not 0%.. possibly motivated by the expectation that when people see a dark screen at boot they assume the display driver is broken :-P BR, -R > This could also be used for the bootloader to communicate to the > kernel what the current level is if it is not readable.

Okay. I wonder if we should have units such as "default-brightness-percentage" or "default-brightness-%" so it is clear. Otherwise, we might have some people doing a range of [0,max]. The former is a bit long and the latter is a bit unusual. >> Really, I think all the backlight documentation should be merged with >> LEDs docs. Things like "default-on" are common.

Fully agree. BTW, doing that doesn't have to be in sync between the bindings and drivers. Of course, if we've designed the bindings with sub devices to fit the MFD structure, then that is another problem.

In the case where it's manually tweaked by the developer he/she would most likely modify the brightness through sysfs until a reasonable value is found; and we have that extra step again of converting this to a percentage. Therefor I think it's better to just specify this in "units of brightness" - which would be a unit-less property.

Add the possibility of specifying the default brightness in DT. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Andersson <bjorn.andersson@sonymobile.com> --- This depends on the patch moving pm8941-wled to backlight [1]. The dt property is used by several other backlight drivers, so I considered this to be a "common" property and it's hence not prefixed with "qcom,".
