Hi Thomas, Thank you for the patch. On Thu, Mar 05, 2020 at 04:59:28PM +0100, Thomas Zimmermann wrote: > A call to drm_simple_encoder_init() initializes an encoder without > further functionality.

I've reviewed the whole series, including verifying that the few instances of struct drm_encoder_funcs that were not declared const were not modified somewhere to add more function pointers. Reviewed-by: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> for all the patches. However, I'd like to note that drm_simple_encoder_init() is a bit of a misnommer here. Several of the encoders in those drivers to implement additional functionality. They just expose them through drm_encoder_helper_funcs, not drm_encoder_funcs. > Future directions: There's another common case where the driver > calls kzalloc() plus drm_encoder_init().

I think an even more interesting future enhancement would be to add encoder support to the newly added drm_bridge_connector_init(), for drivers that are fully based on bridges and don't implement any encoder operation, neither through drm_encoder_funcs nor through drm_encoder_helper_funcs. > The patchset has been compile-tested on x86-64, aarch64 and arm. > > Thomas Zimmermann (22): > drm/arc: Use simple encoder > drm/atmel-hlcdc: Use simple encoder > drm/exynos: Use simple encoder > drm/fsl-dcu: Use simple encoder > drm/gma500: Use simple encoder > drm/hisilicon/kirin: Use simple encoder > drm/i2c/tda998x: Use simple encoder > drm/imx: Use simple encoder > drm/ingenic: Use simple encoder > drm/mediatek: Use simple encoder > drm/rcar-du: Use simple encoder > drm/rockchip: Use simple encoder > drm/shmobile: Use simple encoder > drm/sun4i: Use simple encoder > drm/tegra: Use simple encoder > drm/tidss: Use simple encoder > drm/tilcdc: Use simple encoder > drm/vc4: Use simple encoder > drm/virtgpu: Use simple encoder > drm/vkms: Use simple encoder > drm/writeback: Use simple encoder > drm/zte: Use simple encoder > > drivers/gpu/drm/arc/arcpgu_hdmi.c | 10 +++------- > drivers/gpu/drm/arc/arcpgu_sim.c | 8 ++------ > .../gpu/drm/atmel-hlcdc/atmel_hlcdc_output.c | 12 ++++-------- > drivers/gpu/drm/drm_writeback.c | 10 +++------- > drivers/gpu/drm/exynos/exynos_dp.c | 8 ++------ > drivers/gpu/drm/exynos/exynos_drm_dpi.c | 8 ++------ > drivers/gpu/drm/exynos/exynos_drm_dsi.c | 8 ++------ > drivers/gpu/drm/exynos/exynos_drm_vidi.c | 8 ++------ > drivers/gpu/drm/exynos/exynos_hdmi.c | 8 ++------ > drivers/gpu/drm/fsl-dcu/fsl_dcu_drm_rgb.c | 14 +++----------- > drivers/gpu/drm/gma500/cdv_intel_crt.c | 14 +++----------- > drivers/gpu/drm/gma500/cdv_intel_dp.c | 16 +++------------- > drivers/gpu/drm/gma500/cdv_intel_hdmi.c | 4 ++-- > drivers/gpu/drm/gma500/cdv_intel_lvds.c | 17 +++-------------- > drivers/gpu/drm/gma500/mdfld_dsi_dpi.c | 7 +++---- > drivers/gpu/drm/gma500/mdfld_output.h | 1 -
