This replaces the usage of the subclassed atomic state (mdp5_state) with a private_obj state embedded within drm_atomic_state. The latter method is the preferred approach, since it's simpler to implement and less prone to errors. The new API replaces the older and equivalent mdp5_state usage in the following pattern: - References to "mdp5_kms->state" (i.e, the old/existing state) is replaced with mdp5_get_existing_global_state(). In the atomic_check path, this should be called with the glob_state_lock drm_modeset_lock alredy taken. - References to "mdp5_get_state()" are replaced with mdp5_get_global_state(). This acquires glob_state_lock and uses drm_atomic_get_private_obj_state() to create a new duplicated state. Changes in v3: - Acquire glob_state_lock in mdp5_smp.c - Added to the msm atomic helper patch set Changes in v4: - None Signed-off-by: Archit Taneja <architt@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: Rob Clark <robdclark@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Sean Paul <seanpaul@chromium.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
