[PATCH 00/12] drm/i915/bios: vbt child device rework

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

 



I see the parsing and caching of child device data into
i915->vbt.ddi_port_info[] slightly problematic. We keep adding data to
it, and it just duplicates information. Start moving towards a single
point of truth, and getting the information directly from the child
device data.

One obstacle has been that init_vbt_missing_defaults() only initializes
ddi_port_info, without child devices. As the same problem arose in a
patch from Lucas, I thought it was time to start creating fake child
devices to unify the code.

There are a bunch of cleanups and refactoring here. Patches 1-5 are
enough to fix Lucas' patch I think. Patch 10 does what Lucas was after,
just in a different way and as a byproduct of something else. The later
patches in the series are more to show the direction, and seek
validation for that direction.

Naming is also a question mark. All of these are a bit questionable:
intel_bios_encoder_data, devdata, intel_bios_encoder_supports_*, etc.

BR,
Jani.
