drm: Nuke mode->hsync

2020-04-29T15:44:26+00:00

Let's just calculate the hsync rate on demand. No point in wasting space storing it and risking the cached value getting out of sync with reality. v2: Move drm_mode_hsync() next to its only users Drop the TODO Reviewed-by: Sam Ravnborg Reviewed-by: Emil Velikov #v1 Signed-off-by: Ville Syrjälä Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20200428171940.19552-2-ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com

drm/core: Calculate bpp in afbc helper

2020-04-01T12:11:22+00:00

Some drivers (komeda, malidp) don't set anything in cpp. If that is the case the right value can be inferred from the format. Then the "bpp" member can be eliminated from struct drm_afbc_framebuffer.

drm/core: Add drm_afbc_framebuffer and a corresponding helper

2020-03-18T10:22:05+00:00

The new struct contains afbc-specific data. The new function can be used by drivers which support afbc to complete the preparation of struct drm_afbc_framebuffer. It must be called after allocating the said struct and calling drm_gem_fb_init_with_funcs().

drm/todo: Update drm_fb_helper tasks

drm_fb_helper tasks are completed now hence remove them from todo list. Changes since v1: * remove entire drm_fb_helper tasks from todo list.

drm/edid: Add flag to drm_display_info to identify HDMI sinks

2020-02-26T11:31:19+00:00

The drm_display_info structure contains many fields related to HDMI sinks, but none that identifies if a sink compliant with CEA-861 (EDID) shall be treated as an HDMI sink or a DVI sink. Add such a flag, and populate it according to section 8.3.3 ("DVI/HDMI Device Discrimination") of the HDMI v1.3 specification.

drm/todo: Add item for the plane->atomic_check confusion

2020-01-28T14:41:50+00:00

It's frankly a mess, and the confusion around plane_state->crtc/fb that I fixed up in this series is the least of the problems. Add a todo as a future note of how this could be done a lot better, and with a lot less driver confusion.

drm/todo: Add entry to remove load/unload hooks

2019-11-04T17:17:36+00:00

They're midlayer, broken, and because of the old gunk, we can't fix them. For examples see the various checks in drm_mode_object.c against dev->registered, which cannot be enforced if the driver still uses the load hook. Unfortunately our biggest driver still uses load/unload, so this would be really great to get fixed.
