Backlight on delay uses PWM enable time to seperate PWM to
backlight enable assert. Previous time difference used timing
from VDD enable which occur several seconds before resulting
in PWM starting 5ms after backlight enable. Changes to backlight
  duty cycle take affect at the end of the current PWM cycle.
Measured time for the PWM cycle is 5ms. 5 additional ms must be
added to the backlight_on_delay to get correct VBT timing of
PWM to backlight enable assert.

V2: Rebase to Jani Nikula backlight power patch 1/4

Seems to me we should just have a msleep(PWM_CYCLE_DELAY) here since
(assuming I understood correctly) only the PWM cycle time is important
between these two steps, and the "t8" (vbt spec says t7 actually) is
relevant only from end of link training to backlight on.


The driver has overloaded both T8 and T9 VBT timing entries. The eDP specification really doesn't have timing data defined for this requirement, but the panel manufacturers have it in their panel specification and they use various names like (Te, t17, etc...) for this delay.

Hmm, no actually your idea might be better since on VLV/CHV we turn the
pipe on after link training, and I assume t7/t8 should really start
counting from the pipe on on those platforms. So I guess the most
appropriate solution might be somehting like

  {
    intel_dp->last_backlight_on = jiffies;
    intel_panel_enable_backlight(intel_dp->attached_connector);
    msleep(POWER_CYCLE_DELAY);
    _intel_edp_backlight_on(intel_dp);
  }

But I'm not sure the distinction makes any difference since
intel_panel_enable_backlight() shouldn't take a significant amount of
time, and msleep() is itself rather inaccurate.


There is also a need to add this delay when turning off the PWM enable bit through intel_panel_disable_backlight(). If the PWM enable bit is turned off while the PWM signal is high then the signal remains high. If the bit is turned off when the signal is low the PWM will remain low. Since we don't know the current state of the PWM signal we must set the duty_cycle to 0, wait PWM_CYCLE_DELAY, and then turn off the enable bit.

Actually it might be better if we never turn off the PWM enable bit in intel_panel_disable_backlight() and we just use the duty cycle register to control the PWM.

So I guess your approach is the simplest option here.

Shoduln't this be calculated from the PWM frequqncy? Not sure what a PWM
cycle here is exactly. Just one full period of the signal?


The PWM cycle in this case turns out to be 1 full cycle of the PWM waveform though it depends on which display core clock (128 or 25Mhz(S0ix) is being used. Since we only care about the minimum elapsed time to meet the panel specification a value of 5ms will work even though more or less PWM cycles would take place before the BL_ENABLE is asserted. I would prefer not to add complexity to switch between panel timings for normal and S0ix display clock modes. How often does the backlight get enabled while in S0ix?

Also would be nice to have a comment in the code explaining what this is
and why we need to add it to the delay.

Sure, As you may have noticed in other patches I really like comments.
