Oh maybe we have a naming confusion: the _locked is the one where the caller must grab the lock already, whereas drm_is_current_master would grab the master_mutex internally to do the check. The one in drm_framebuffer.c looks like it'd need the internal one since there's no other need to grab the master_mutex. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation http://blog.ffwll.ch
