That would be nice from a dev standpoint if we can get a complete state for all planes at once from DRM core, but how? DRM helper gives callbacks for updating individual planes with prev and new state. These individual layer change notifications don't map nicely to how pipes are represented in the mixer registers. > That description just looks to me like the reset is not done properly, > and now we have to deal with the fallouts later on.
