I sent a preview of a new display subsystem for OMAP2/3 some time

ago:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-omap&m=122114505030542&w=2

I now have updated it, the patches are at the same place:
http://www.bat.org/~tomba/omap-dss/

series, please see git-send-email man page.

This discussion should go to linux-fbdev-devel list. Please keep l-o list Cc'd though. Also you should post the patches as a proper inline

Ok, I'll move it to linux-fbdev-devel.

I didn't post the patches inline, as they are quite big (250k+). I
thought there was a "rule" to put big patches to some public place,
not
to mail them.

What is the proper procedure for this work? Discuss and review the

Linus' tree?

patches on fbdevel, and mail to l-o when finalized? Or go directly to

Or a branch on l-o (like pm-0)  that will get rebased when things
change.

I'd suggest discussing it on fbdevel list, and then have the necessary
patches included into the mainline kernel via fbdevel. If you cc l-o
list, people will have a chance to comment also.

regards,

Koen

This patch also hooks into boardcode for omap3 boards, which AFAIK aren't in mainline yet, which makes it hard to funnel a working patch through the fbdev tree to mainline. But apart from that, going through fbdev-devel first would cut down on tedious review rounds later on. Does davinci share enough bits to make this DSS lib work for that as well?
