[PATCH 1/2] drm/fb-helper: Synchronize dirty worker with vblank

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Before updating the display from the console's shadow buffer, the dirty
worker now waits for vblank. This allows several screen updates to pile
up and acts as a rate limiter.
