Subject: [PATCH] drm/amd/display: Scale custom brightness curve from full range
Date: Thu, 13 Aug 2026 22:09:59 +0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260813170959.22073-1-zhitaevakh@gmail.com> (raw)

Custom brightness curves use an 8-bit input signal.  After exporting the
full PWM range to userspace, the curve normalizer still divides requests
by the physical PWM span.  On panels with a nonzero minimum PWM level,
this can produce a curve input greater than 255 and send an invalid
backlight level to DC.

Scale the userspace [0..max] range to the curve's [0..255] range
instead.  This retains the full advertised range and keeps the reverse
readback conversion unchanged.

Fixes: 8dbd72cb7900 ("drm/amd/display: Export full brightness range to userspace")
