[Intel-gfx] Contribute to DRM

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi, 

I would like to start to contribute to drm part of kernel. I tried a few things:

- Compiled linux-next tree using C=1 (sparse) to find things to improve. But couldn't find any problem or issue. 
- I looked in "www.x.org/wiki/DRMJanitors/" for stuff to do, but seems that most of them are already done when I checked the code. 

- Compiled and run the linux-next tree to test the code. And for this I got the warning below. 
I tried to compile a few older versions of linux-next in order to find the offending commit. But I didn't succeed, many commits don't boot at all, and is difficult to get more information about the status of the warning for that version. 

So, I would like some tips about how to debug DRM code, how to test, how to get more information about issues. 
What I do is : 
- Compile and run
- Restart to a good kernel 
- "journalctl --boot=-1"  to see if I got any warning on previous kernel 

Also, if any developer needs/wants some help and it's ok to guide a new guy in DRM code, I would like to get help about tasks to do, things to clean/improve. 
I'm reading https://www.kernel.org/doc/htmldocs/drm/ to start, and I have done a few courses from linux foundation. 

Thanks
Best Regards
