Merge tag 'drm-misc-next-2018-11-28' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm/drm-misc into drm-next
drm-misc-next for v4.21:
Core Changes:
- Merge drm_info.c into drm_debugfs.c
- Complete the fake drm_crtc_commit's hw_done/flip_done sooner.
- Remove deprecated drm_obj_ref/unref functions. All drivers use get/put now.
- Decrease stack use of drm_gem_prime_mmap.
- Improve documentation for dumb callbacks.
Driver Changes:
- Add edid support to virtio.
- Wait on implicit fence in meson and sun4i.
- Add support for BGRX8888 to sun4i.
- Preparation patches for sun4i driver to start supporting linear and tiled YUV formats.
- Add support for HDMI 1.4 4k modes to meson, and support for VIC alternate timings.
- Drop custom dumb_map in vkms.
- Small fixes and cleanups to v3d.

It would be good to switch over for consistency, and -it's shorter. Needs to be done in 3 steps for each pair of functions: -* Create new ``get``/``put`` functions, define the old names as compatibility - wrappers -* Switch over each file/driver using a cocci-generated spatch. -* Once all users of the old names are gone, remove them. +Remove custom dumb_map_offset implementations +--------------------------------------------- -This way drivers/patches in the progress of getting merged won't break. +All GEM based drivers should be using drm_gem_create_mmap_offset() instead. +Audit each individual driver, make sure it'll work with the generic +implementation (there's lots of outdated locking leftovers in various +implementations), and then remove it. -Contact: Daniel Vetter +Contact: Daniel Vetter, respective driver maintainers Convert existing KMS drivers to atomic modesetting -------------------------------------------------- |
