This entry asked to rename all drm core "*_reference/_unrefence" functions to "*_get/_put". Now that this task is complete, we can remove this entry from the TODO list.

Contact: Daniel Vetter, Thierry Reding, respective driver maintainers -Switch from reference/unreference to get/put --------------------------------------------- - -For some reason DRM core uses ``reference``/``unreference`` suffixes for -refcounting functions, but kernel uses ``get``/``put`` (e.g. -``kref_get``/``put()``). It would be good to switch over for consistency, and -it's shorter. Needs to be done in 3 steps for each pair of functions: - -* Create new ``get``/``put`` functions, define the old names as compatibility - wrappers -* Switch over each file/driver using a cocci-generated spatch. -* Once all users of the old names are gone, remove them. - -This way drivers/patches in the progress of getting merged won't break. - -Contact: Daniel Vetter - Convert existing KMS drivers to atomic modesetting -------------------------------------------------- -- 2.19.1 _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
