[PATCH v4 0/4] drm: Provide a simple encoder

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

 



Many DRM drivers implement an encoder with an empty implementation. This
patchset adds drm_simple_encoder_init(), which drivers can use instead.
Except for the destroy callback, the simple encoder's implementation is
empty.

The patchset also converts 4 encoder instances to use the simple-encoder
helpers. But there are at least 11 other drivers which can use the helper
and I think I did not examine all drivers yet.

The patchset was smoke-tested on mgag200 by running the fbdev console
and Gnome on X11.

v4:
	* print error messages with drm_err() (Sam)
	* qxl: handle errors of drm_simple_encoder_init() (Sam)
v3:
	* remove drm_simple_encoder_create() for lack of users (Sam, Daniel)
	* provide more precise documentation (Sam)
v2:
	* move simple encoder to KMS helpers (Daniel)
	* remove name argument; simplifies implementation (Gerd)
	* don't allocate with devm_ interfaces; unsafe with DRM (Noralf)

Thomas Zimmermann (4):
  drm/simple-kms: Add drm_simple_encoder_{init,create}()
  drm/ast: Use simple encoder
  drm/mgag200: Use simple encoder
  drm/qxl: Use simple encoder
