Hi guys,

I had a conflict this morning in the ttm pool while pushing an important
fix to drm-misc-fixes.

I'm not 100% sure if I correctly fixed up drm-tip. How can this be
double checked? And how can it be fixed if the merge has gone bad?
I'm afraid there's a problem; bb52cb0dec8d ("drm/ttm: make the pool
shrinker lock a mutex") in upstream and drm-misc-fixes creates a silent
conflict with ba051901d10f ("drm/ttm: add a debugfs file for the global
page pools") in drm-misc-next, causing the latter to use
spin_lock/unlock on a mutex.

But while you hit a conflict, it does look like the conflict breaking
the build is silent, AFAICT the spinlock part does not conflict. So a
fixup patch in drm-rerere is probably needed until there are some
backmerges.

Well exactly that's the issue. I've already had a fixup in drm-rerere for this.

But today I've pushed another fix to drm-misc-fixes which also conflicts with ba051901d10f ("drm/ttm: add a debugfs file for the global page pools").

I've fixed this up as well and committed the solution. But dim then complained that the original fixup is now not applicable any more (which is true as far as I know).

This somehow went away when I said that dim should assume patch reversal, but I'm not sure if that's the right thing to do.

Thanks,
Christian.



BR,
Jani.
