Greg KH is > + working on this already. Part of this work was to try to delete drm_debugfs_remove_files(). There are only 4 files that currently still call this function: drivers/gpu/drm/tegra/dc.c drivers/gpu/drm/tegra/dsi.c drivers/gpu/drm/tegra/hdmi.c drivers/gpu/drm/tegra/sor.c For dc.c, the driver wants to add debugfs files to the struct drm_crtc debugfs directory. Which is fine, but it has to do some special memory allocation to get the debugfs callback to point not to the struct drm_minor pointer, but rather the drm_crtc structure. So, to remove this call, I need to remove this special memory allocation and to do that, I need to somehow be able to cast from drm_minor back to the drm_crtc structure being used in this driver. And I can't figure how they are related at all. Any pointers here (pun intended) would be appreciated. For the other 3 files, the situation is much the same, but I need to get from a 'struct drm_minor' pointer to a 'struct drm_connector' pointer. I could just "open code" a bunch of calls to debugfs_create_file() for these drivers, which would solve this issue, but in a more "non-drm" way. Is it worth to just do that instead of overthinking the whole thing and trying to squish it into the drm "model" of drm debugfs calls? Either way, who can test these changes? I can't even build the tegra driver without digging up an arm64 cross-compiler, and can't test it as I have no hardware at all. thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
