drm-misc-next for v6.19: UAPI Changes: Cross-subsystem Changes: - fbcon cleanups. - Make drivers depend on FB_TILEBLITTING instead of selecting it, and hide FB_MODE_HELPERS. Core Changes: - More preparations for rust. - Throttle dirty worker with vblank - Use drm_for_each_bridge_in_chain_scoped in drm's bridge code and assorted fixes. - Ensure drm_client_modeset tests are enabled in UML. - Rename ttm_bo_put to ttm_bo_fini, as a further step in removing the TTM bo refcount. - Add POST_LT_ADJ_REQ training sequence. - Show list of removed but still allocated bridges. - Add a simulated vblank interrupt for hardware without it, and add some helpers to use them in vkms and hypervdrm. Driver Changes: - Assorted small fixes, cleanups and updates to host1x, tegra, panthor, amdxdna, gud, vc4, ssd130x, ivpu, panfrost, panthor, sysfb, bridge/sn65dsi86, solomon, ast, tidss. - Convert drivers from using .round_rate() to .determine_rate() - Add support for KD116N3730A07/A12, chromebook mt8189, JT101TM023, LQ079L1SX01, raspberrypi 5" panels. - Improve reclocking on tegra186+ with nouveau. - Improve runtime pm in amdxdna. - Add support for HTX_PAI in imx. - Use a helper to calculate dumb buffer sizes in most drivers.

drm/dumb-buffers: Provide helper to set pitch and size

2025-09-29T11:57:43Z

Add drm_modes_size_dumb(), a helper to calculate the dumb-buffer scanline pitch and allocation size. Implementations of struct drm_driver.dumb_create can call the new helper for their size computations. There is currently quite a bit of code duplication among DRM's memory managers. Each calculates scanline pitch and buffer size from the given arguments, but the implementations are inconsistent in how they treat alignment and format support. Later patches will unify this code on top of drm_mode_size_dumb() as much as possible. drm_mode_size_dumb() uses existing 4CC format helpers to interpret the given color mode. This makes the dumb-buffer interface behave similar the kernel's video= parameter. Current per-driver implementations again likely have subtle differences or bugs in how they support color modes. The dumb-buffer UAPI is only specified for known color modes. These values describe linear, single-plane RGB color formats or legacy index formats. Other values should not be specified. But some user space still does. So for unknown color modes, there are a number of known exceptions for which drm_mode_size_dumb() calculates the pitch from the bpp value, as before. All other values work the same but print an error. v6: - document additional use cases for DUMB_CREATE2 in TODO list (Tomi) - fix typos in documentation (Tomi) v5: - check for overflows with check_mul_overflow() (Tomi) v4: - use %u conversion specifier (Geert) - list DRM_FORMAT_Dn in UAPI docs (Geert) - avoid dmesg spamming with drm_warn_once() (Sima) - add more information about bpp special case (Sima) - clarify parameters for hardware alignment - add a TODO item for DUMB_CREATE2 v3: - document the UAPI semantics - compute scanline pitch from for unknown color modes (Andy, Tomi) Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann Reviewed-by: Tomi Valkeinen Reviewed-by: Tomi Valkeinen Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250821081918.79786-3-tzimmermann@suse.de

drm/i915: Remove todo and comments about struct_mutex

2025-09-09T14:39:39Z

This patch completes the removal of struct_mutex from the driver. Remove the related TODO item, as the transition away from struct_mutex is now complete. Also clean up references to struct_mutex in i915.rst to avoid outdated documentation.

That would be rather nice to have and the kernel side is really trivial, only the userspace side might be a bit more complex.
