It would be good to have an authoritative guideline about this in the kernel documentation (and make checkpatch.pl aware). -- Best regards, Javier Martinez Canillas Linux Engineering Red Hat

Fbdev deferred I/O will now work without an intermediate shadow buffer for mmap. As the virtio driver replaces several of the regular GEM SHMEM functions with its own implementation, some additional code is necessary make fbdev optimization work. Especially, the driver has to provide buffer-object functions for fbdev. Add the hook struct drm_driver.gem_create_object_fbdev, which is similar to struct drm_driver.gem_create_object and allows for the creation of dedicated fbdev buffer objects. Wire things up within GEM SHMEM.
