This patchset adds various helpers that was originally part of the tinydrm patchset.
Essentially it adds 3 functions: - drm_fb_cma_create_with_funcs() CMA backed framebuffer supporting a dirty() callback. - drm_atomic_helper_best_encoder() (struct drm_connector_helper_funcs *)->best_encoder callback helper. - drm_simple_display_pipe_init() Plane, crtc and encoder are collapsed into one entity.
Plus it has gained a couple of documentation patches since v1.
Changes since v1: - Drop patch: drm/panel: Add helper for simple panel connector - Add fb-helper and fb-cma-helper doc patches - Add drm/atomic: Don't skip drm_bridge_*() calls if !drm_encoder_helper_funcs - Add drm_atomic_helper_best_encoder() - drm/fb-cma-helper: Add function drm_fb_cma_create_with_funcs() - Expand docs - drm: Add helper for simple display pipeline - Add DOC header and add to gpu.tmpl - Fix docs: @funcs is optional, "negative error code", "This hook is optional." - Add checks to drm_simple_kms_plane_atomic_check()
Noralf Trønnes (6): drm/fb-helper: Remove mention of CONFIG_FB_DEFERRED_IO in docs drm/fb-cma-helper: Hook up to DocBook and fix some docs drm/fb-cma-helper: Add function drm_fb_cma_create_with_funcs() drm/atomic: Don't skip drm_bridge_*() calls if !drm_encoder_helper_funcs drm/atomic: Add drm_atomic_helper_best_encoder() drm: Add helper for simple display pipeline
