The main concern I have here is that converting the last two will lead to a lot of churn with no functional change. And instead of three sets of functions, we'd actually have five, until all of it is converted. Also it seems to me adding the last two will validate their widespread use, while personally I think the focus should be on transforming to use the struct drm_device based functions introduced in this series. Maybe we should wait until we have enough code converted to the struct drm_device based functions, so that the rest could perhaps be converted en masse using cocci? Other than that, I could easily get behind your proposal. > level could be info, info_once, info_ratelimited and so on for dbg, err, > notice, warn > > With the above I can see we can make a clean shift to drm based logging. > And we do not need to mix different ways to log stuf. > > The preferred: > drm_info() > drm_dev_info() > drm_pr_info() > > versus: > drm_info() > dev_info() > pr_info() > > The patch is OK without the suggested change, but see this as > suggestions for improvements. > So patch as is has my: > Acked-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Thanks, appreciated! Still, while I'd really just like to merge this now and get done with it, I think I'd rather have more acks behind this (at the risk of soliciting bikeshedding...) so nobody feels like I'm sneaking this in.
