Thanks for the feedback DRM core does correctly keep track of the users but the last ref is dropped in our ->destroy callback and at that point it's still pinned from pipe_set_base(). So if it's considered too late to unpin the framebuffer in destroy, we never had it right in the first place. Not a big surprise I guess :) > If a pin survives the official use as seen by the drm core (e.g. to keep a > buffer around until the pageflip completes) you can simply keep an > additional reference around. As I wrote above, that additional reference is not dropped until ->destroy anyways and we don't have page flipping support and to be honest I haven't even looked at implementing it yet. So the logical point to release the pin would be in pipe_set_base() (or am I wrong?) by doing an unpin on the old_fb. Problem is that when killing X and switching back to fbdev we get no old_fb. I might be missing something, so any suggestions are welcome.
