Hmm. I thought we wouldn't even need the dummy prop. But looking at the code we do in fact need it. The ioctl structure itself should allow adding an object without any properties, but the code then skips the get_crtc_state() and thus no event for that crtc. I guess it's been like that forever so not much point in trying to change that anymore. -- Ville Syrjälä Intel _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
