DRM bridges are currently considered as a fixed element of a DRM card, and thus their lifetime is assumed to extend for as long as the card exists. New use cases, such as hot-pluggable hardware with video bridges, require DRM bridges to be added to and removed from a DRM card without tearing the card down. This is possible for connectors already (used by DP MST), it is now needed for DRM bridges as well. As a first preliminary step, make bridges reference-counted to allow a struct drm_bridge (along with the private driver structure embedding it) to stay allocated even after the driver has been removed, until the last reference is put. Signed-off-by: Luca Ceresoli <luca.ceresoli@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- Changes in v7: - export drm_bridge_put_void - struct drm_bridge: use container pointer instead of container_offset - remove drm_bridge_is_refcounted() - remove all DRM_DEBUG()s - drm_bridge_get/put: accept NULL pointer and return the bridge pointer to allow pass-through calls - extract to separate patches: - the addition of drm_bridge_alloc - the addition of drm_bridge_get/put() to drm_bridge_add/remove() - the addition of drm_bridge_get/put() to drm_bridge_attach/detach() - fix a typo, slightly improve kerneldoc Changes in v6: - use drm_warn, not WARN_ON (Jani Nikula) - Add devm_drm_bridge_alloc() to replace drm_bridge_init() (similar to drmm_encoder_alloc) - Remove .destroy func: deallocation is done via the struct offset computed by the devm_drm_bridge_alloc() macro - use fixed free callback, as the same callback is used in all cases anyway (remove free_cb, add bool is_refcounted) - add drm_bridge_get/put() to drm_bridge_attach/detach() (add the bridge to a list) - make some DRM_DEBUG() strings more informative This patch was added in v5. --- drivers/gpu/drm/drm_bridge.c | 33 +++++++++++++++- include/drm/drm_bridge.h | 91 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 123 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_bridge.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_bridge.c index 96df717b2caeb41d45346ded576eaeb2806fd051..2ba0dac9bfc2dfd709d5e2457d69067c7324972c 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_bridge.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_bridge.c @@ -199,23 +199,54 @@ static DEFINE_MUTEX(bridge_lock);
