They add very little value (e.g. they are useful to get the driver working but not that important to keeping it working). As such I don't think they are worth the clutter in a CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG kernel. Note this is strictly for the hid_dbg() stuff... the hid_err() stuff in the probe error paths are much more useful!

You are right, I will remove all hid_dbg calls in v4. Thank you very much for the review. Julius

The non-devm_ version is marked deprecated. As for the order, I am not really sure. I am concerned about someone updating the brightness while its being removed. So the HID device would already have been stopped and then I would issue a request and wait for completion.

Thank you for the helpful review. Julius

Maybe align the names. What happens when multiple compatible devices are used? That seems to be possible with external monitors.

+Cc Hans who ins involved with the backlight subsystem Hi Julius, today I stumbled upon a mail from Hans [0], which explains that the backlight subsystem is not actually a good fit (yet?) for external displays. It seems a new API is in the works that would better fit, but I'm not sure about the state of this API. Maybe Hans can clarify. This also ties back to my review question how userspace can figure out to which display a backlight devices applies. So far it can not. [0] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/7f2d88de-60c5-e2ff-9b22-acba35cfdfb6@redhat.com/ Below the original PATCH for Hans' reference.

I will make sure to give this a proper read and see, if it fits my use case better then the current backlight subsystem. Especially since I wasnt able to properly address your other review comments for now. You are right that the name should align better with the kernel module and also, that it is possible for multiple displays to be attached. In its current state, this would mean that you could only control the backlight for the first HID device (enough for me :-). The systemd-backlight@.service uses not only the file name, but also the full bus path for storing/restoring backlights. I did not yet get around to see how the desktops handle brightness control, but since the systemd-backlight@.service already uses the name, its important to stay the same over multiple boots. I would be able to get a handle on the underlying USB device and use the serial to uniquely (and persistently) name the backlight. But it does feel hacky doing it this way. Anyways, this is where am at. Thanks again for the support and I will try my best to come up with something better. Julius

So mutter (gnome-shell compositor library) has a similar issue when saving monitor layouts and I can tell you beforehand that monitor serial numbers by themselves are not unique enough. Some models just report 123456789 as serial and if you have a dual-monitor setup with 2 such monitors and name the backlight class device <serial>-vcp-hid or something like that you will still end up with 2 identical names. To avoid this when saving monitor layouts mutter saves both the port to which the monitor is attached (e.g. DP-1 DP-2) and the serialnumber and on startup / monitor hotplug when it checks to see if it has saved layout info for the monitor it checks the port+serialnr combination. So what I think you should do is figure out a way to map which VCP HID device maps to which drm-connector and then use the connector-name + serial-nr to generate the backlight device name. We will need the mapping the a drm-connector object anyway for the new brightness API proposal from above. Note this does NOT solve the fact that registering a new backlight class device for an external monitor on a laptop will hopelessly confuse userspace, see: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/7f2d88de-60c5-e2ff-9b22-acba35cfdfb6@redhat.com/ Regards, Hans

The HID spec defines the following Usage IDs (p. 345 ff): - Monitor Page (0x80) -> Monitor Control (0x01) - VESA Virtual Controls Page (0x82) -> Brightness (0x10) Apple made use of them in their Apple Studio Display and most likely on other external displays (LG UltraFine 5k, Pro Display XDR). The driver will work for any HID device with a report, where the application matches the Monitor Control Usage ID and: 1. An Input field in this report with the Brightness Usage ID (to get the current brightness) 2. A Feature field in this report with the Brightness Usage ID (to set the current brightness) This driver has been developed and tested with the Apple Studio Display. Here is a small excerpt from the decoded HID descriptor showing the feature field for setting the brightness: Usage Page (Monitor VESA VCP), ; Monitor VESA VPC (82h, monitor page) Usage (10h, Brightness), Logical Minimum (400), Logical Maximum (60000), Unit (Centimeter^-2 * Candela), Unit Exponent (14), Report Size (32), Report Count (1), Feature (Variable, Null State), The full HID descriptor dump is available as a comment in the source code.
