[RFC 1/3] drm/i915: rough ideas for further separating display code from the rest

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

 



Long term goal: Separate display code from struct drm_i915_private and
i915_drv.h, and everything in them.

First step, draft some ideas how we could use struct intel_display as
the main device structure for display, while struct drm_device remains
in struct drm_i915_private (or, in the case of xe, in struct xe_device).

To get at struct drm_device * given a struct intel_display *, simply
store a backpointer.

To get at struct intel_display * given a struct drm_device *, require
storing a struct intel_display * right after struct drm_device in
memory. It's slightly hackish, but devm_drm_dev_alloc() facilitates
defining the enclosing struct as we wish.
