Re: [PATCH v2 1/4] drm/simple-kms: Add drm_simple_encoder_{init, create}()

Hi Thomas.

On Tue, Feb 18, 2020 at 09:48:12AM +0100, Thomas Zimmermann wrote:

This patch makes the internal encoder implementation of the simple KMS helpers available to drivers.

These simple-encoder helpers initialize an encoder with an empty implementation. This covers the requirements of most of the existing DRM drivers. A call to drm_simple_encoder_create() allocates and initializes an encoder instance, a call to drm_simple_encoder_init() initializes a pre-allocated instance.

v2:

• move simple encoder to KMS helpers
• remove name argument; simplifies implementation
• don't allocate with devm_ interfaces; unsafe with DRM

I got confused here. The comment says the encoder is automatically released. But in this case we have a preallocated encoder (maybe embedded in ast_private or something. So the encoder is - as I understnad it - not released. But it is cleaned up as it is also documented in the next sentences.

Sorry if I am dense, just returned from some travelling...
