It's meant for the case where the hardware implements, say, all rotation angles and one reflection, or 0+90 and both reflections. By using drm_rotation_simplify() the driver can just deal with the bits that the hardware actually implements while we still expose everything to userspace. The core should in any case reject the multiple rotation bits set at the same time thing. We had that code in the i915 set_property code but it was lost in some atomic conversion. -- Ville Syrjälä Intel OTC _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
