  • Interrupt-based notifications for display setting changes
    Patent number: 8847998
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to a system that communicates a change in a display setting from a display to a host system for the display. During operation, the system determines at the display that the display setting has changed. Next, in response to the change, the system sends an interrupt from the display to the host system through a first interface, wherein the interrupt informs the host system that the display setting has changed. After sending the interrupt to the host system, the system receives a request from the host system to obtain values for one or more display settings including the changed display setting. In response to the request, the system sends updated values for the one or more display settings to the host system.
