This is a must only for drivers supporting modifiers, not all drivers. Hence the check in the if. I did add WARN_ON for the combos that get stuff wrong though (like only supply one side of the modifier info, not both). > As a follow-up one could even go a step further, by erroring out when > the driver hasn't provided valid modifier(s) and even removing > config::allow_fb_modifiers all together. Well that currently only exists to avoid walking the plane list (which we need to do for validation that all planes are the same). It's quite tricky code for tiny benefit, so I don't think it's worth it trying to remove allow_fb_modifiers completely. > Although for stable - this series + WARN_ON (no return since it might > break buggy drivers) sounds good. > > > @@ -909,6 +909,8 @@ struct drm_mode_config { > > * @allow_fb_modifiers: > > * > > * Whether the driver supports fb modifiers in the ADDFB2.1 ioctl call. > > + * Note that drivers should not set this directly, it is automatically > > + * set in drm_universal_plane_init(). > > * > > * IMPORTANT: > > * > The new note and the existing IMPORTANT are in a weird mix. > Quoting the latter since it doesn't show in the diff. > > If this is set the driver must fill out the full implicit modifier > information in their &drm_mode_config_funcs.fb_create hook for legacy > userspace which does not set modifiers.
