Hi all,
After merging the drm tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig) failed like this:
error: the following would cause module name conflict: drivers/video/fbdev/omap2/omapfb/displays/panel-dsi-cm.ko drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-dsi-cm.ko
Maybe caused by commit
cf64148abcfd ("drm/panel: Move OMAP's DSI command mode panel driver")
I have used the drm tree from next-20210107 for today.

This has affected the drm-misc tree as well (since it merged in the drm tree).

Standard DRM panel driver for DSI command mode panel used by omapfb2 is also available now. Just like the other panels its module name clashes with the module from drivers/video/fbdev/omap2/omapfb/displays, part of the deprecated omapfb2 fbdev driver. As omapfb2 can only be compiled when the omapdrm driver is disabled, and the DRM panel drivers are useless in that case, make the omapfb2 panel depend on the standard DRM panels being disabled to fix the name clash.

But why is it it we need omapfb at all when we have omapdrm? Can we sunset all or some parts of omap support in video/? If not, what is missing to do so.

Thanks.
But why is it it we need omapfb at all when we have omapdrm?
I think there are two reasons omapfb has not been killed yet. One reason was missing support for manually updated DSI panels, which have been working since 1 or 2 kernel releases now. The other reason is some people using it in combination with an out-of-tree PowerVR kernel driver. There is currently work going on to use a more recent PowerVR driver based on omapdrm driven by Maemo Leste people.
Can we sunset all or some parts of omap support in video/? If not, what is missing to do so.
IDK the exact status of the PowerVR work and have not been using omapfb myself for years. I don't think there is a reason to rush this, so my suggestion is removing it in 3 steps giving people the chance to complain:
1. Add 'depends on EXPERT' to 'FB_OMAP2' and add deprecation notice referencing omapdrm in help text in 5.12 2. Add 'depends on BROKEN' in 5.13 3. Drop drivers/video/fbdev/omap2 afterwards

Thanks. I'll push to drm-misc-next, as that's where the commit that breaks this is.

omapfb also has a custom sysfw API, so applications that depend on it would not work anymore. I don't know if there are such applications, though.
Can we sunset all or some parts of omap support in video/? If not, what is missing to do so.

- Add 'depends on BROKEN' in 5.13

I'd love to remove omapfb, but I also fear that there are still people using it. We can try the above sequence, but it's probably better to go slower, as people may not be using the latest kernels.

I thought about this again and I think the best option is to rename CONFIG_FB_OMAP2 to something like CONFIG_FB_OMAP2_DEPRECATED and update the help text. That way anyone with CONFIG_FB_OMAP2 in their .config will definitely notice the change when upgrading to a newer kernel, but can easily fix it temporarily. Help text could be
"This driver will be removed in 2022, please switch to omapdrm."
and no other intermediate steps are required that way :)
But while looking through CONFIG_FB_OMAP2 references I noticed there is also a V4L2 driver (CONFIG_VIDEO_OMAP2_VOUT), which seems to only work with omapfb. IIUIC that driver provides display overlays to V4L. I guess on omapdrm V4L can use DRM planes instead and no driver is needed (i.e. this driver could just go away with omapfb)?

One feature that the omapfb2 and the omap-vout drivers provide is rotation support with VRFB on OMAP3. I haven't moved to omapdrm on an old project for this reason. It should be possible to implement rotation support in omapdrm, but I'm not aware of any effort in that direction.

I've pulled drm-misc-next into drm-next now, so as long as all other drm trees are merged after drm, this should be solved now. drm-intel-next also has their msm build breakage fixed (I acked the patch already), so hopefully we should be all clean again. -Daniel
