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 +Audit each individual driver, make sure it'll work with the generic +implementation (there's lots of outdated locking leftovers in various +implementations), and then remove it.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 -------------------------------------------------- |
