[PATCH v3 4/4] 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 a vblank. This allows several screen updates to pile
up and acts as a rate limiter. If a DRM master is present, it could
interfere with the vblank. Don't wait in this case.

v3:
	* add back helper->lock
	* acquire DRM master status while waiting for vblank
v2:
	* don't hold helper->lock while waiting for vblank
