This patch adds atomic_enable and atomic_disable callbacks to the encoder helpers. This will allow encoders to make informed decisions in their start-up/shutdown based on the committed state. Aside from the new hooks, this patch also introduces the new signature for .atomic_* functions going forward. Instead of passing object state (well, encoders don't have atomic state, but let's ignore that), we pass the entire atomic state so the driver can inspect more than what's happening locally. This is particularly important for the upcoming self refresh helpers. Changes in v3: - Added patch to the set Changes in v4: - Move atomic_disable above prepare (Daniel) - Add breadcrumb to .enable() docbook (Daniel) Changes in v5: - None Changes in v6: - Tweak kerneldoc some more (Sam) Link to v3: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20190502194956.218441-2-sean@poorly.run Link to v4: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20190508160920.144739-2-sean@poorly.run Link to v5: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20190611160844.257498-2-sean@poorly.run Cc: Daniel Vetter <daniel@ffwll.ch> Cc: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com> Cc: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Tested-by: Heiko Stuebner <heiko@sntech.de> Reviewed-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel@ffwll.ch> Signed-off-by: Sean Paul <seanpaul@chromium.org> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20190611204959.180855-1-sean@poorly.run
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.
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.
