The `backlight` file seems to not receive modification events for inotify (it does receive other events though). These other events still trigger an update, but the value read is still the old value because the events arrive just slightly before the file is updated. The new `poll-interval` setting will inject an event every X seconds to force an update. If the actual_brightness file is used, the interval is set to 0 and thus turned off. This does not add any more wakeups to the module, the inotify modules wake up every second anyway and during that time, the interval is checked. Fixes #2835

/**
|
|
* Reads value from `/sys/class/backlight/` to get a brightness value for some device.
|
|
*
|
|
* There are two file providing brightness values: `brightness` and `actual_brightness`.
|
|
* The `actual_brightness` file is usually more reliable, but in some cases does not work (provides completely wrong
|
|
* values, doesn't update) depending on kernel version, graphics driver, and/or graphics card.
|
|
* Which file is used is controlled by the use-actual-brightness setting.
|
|
*
|
|
* The general issue with the `brightness` file seems to be that, while it does receive inotify events, the events it
|
|
* receives are not for modification of the file and arrive just before the file is updated with a new value. The module
|
|
* thus reads and displays an outdated brightness value. To compensate for this, the module periodically (controlled by
|
|
* `poll-interval`) forces an update. By default, this is only enabled if the `backlight` file is used.
