[PATCH 0/9] drm: remove deprecated functions

[PATCH 0/9] drm: remove deprecated functions

[Fernando Ramos]

Hi all,

One of the things in the DRM TODO list ("Documentation/gpu/todo.rst") was to
"switch from reference/unreference to get/put". That's what this patch series is
about.

In the past year or so most of the functions had already been renamed and only a
few remained, which are the ones I fix here.

In addition, now that all calls to these deprecated functions are gone, this
patch also removes their implementation and the coccinelle script that takes
care of them (which is no longer needed).

Anyway, this is my first patch and I'm sure I've done something wrong. Please
let me know :)

Fernando Ramos (9):
  drm: replace "drm_gem_object_unreference_unlocked" function with
    "*put_unlocked"
  drm: remove deprecated "[__]drm_gem_object_[un]reference[_locked]"
    functions
  drm: replace "drm_dev_unref" function with "drm_dev_put"
  drm: remove deprecated "drm_dev_unref" function
  drm: replace "drm_connector_unreference" with "drm_connector_put"
  drm: remove deprecated "drm_connector_[un]reference" functions
  drm: remove deprecated "drm_framebuffer_[un]reference" functions
  drm: remove no longer needed drm-get-put coccinelle script
  docs: drm: remove no longer relevant TODO entry

This is already fixed in drm-misc-next as it happens:

    drm/bochs: Replace drm_gem_object_unreference_unlocked with put function

    This patch unifies the naming of DRM functions for reference counting
    of struct drm_gem_object. The resulting code is more aligned with the
    rest of the Linux kernel interfaces.

[PATCH 2/9] drm: remove deprecated "[__]drm_gem_object_[un]reference[_locked]" functions

[Fernando Ramos]

There are no more places where these (deprecated) functions are being
used from, thus they can now be removed.

At least the etnaviv part of the patch is already fixed in linux-next.

Thanks for the notice.

I'm new on this, how should I proceed? Should I create a new (V2) patch series with these changes reverted? Or will the maintainer automatically take care of this when merging?

And, related to this, what is the "good" branch to start developing new drm patches? Is is "drm-next" or "linux-next"? Or does it change depending on how much time until the merge window closes?

Thanks!

I advise most of our developers to work on drm-tip because it contains
the latest stuff in drm core, i915, amd, most of the small drivers, as
well as sound. It's a bit like "linux-next for graphics". And you don't
really have to care about the merge cycles with that.

But YMMV, it probably doesn't work for everyone.

BR,
Jani.

I fixed it :) I think. At least I hope I didn't do something bad.

Now that this task is complete, we can remove this entry from the TODO

-For some reason DRM core uses ``reference``/``unreference`` suffixes for

-``kref_get``/``put()``). 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

-* Switch over each file/driver using a cocci-generated spatch.
-* Once all users of the old names are gone, remove them.

I think for this undisputed cocci series waiting for everyone is not
needed. There's really not much the driver-specific reviewer perspective
would help here.

In general I do agree though, if there's something driver maintainers can
have better insight on.

OK I did... the git was quirky, patches changes around
under my feet and dim started to complain about problems
with commits that weren't even mine.

It was especially scary.

But I think I managed to apply the patches and push the
branch now.

Except when you're racing with someone else you should only see conflicts
with stuff you've just pushed. Or if someone forgot to fix up their mess.
What was the conflict? Looking at the git-rerere log I'm not exactly sure
what happened ... Looks like only one of the patches didn't apply cleanly
anymore because it was somewhat outdated. Otherwise nothing from you.

dim push-branches was complaining that one of the commits was
missing the proper committer sign-off, it was the bottom commit under
mine (IIRC "drm/atomic-helper: WARN if fake_commit->hw_done is not
completed as expected")
and dim update-branches seemed to rebase and fix up my patches
and then everything was fine.

I just felt slightly out of control :D

This sounds like you (or dim?) accidentaly amended that commit (which
changes the committer and results in the warning), and a rebase would
indeed have fixed that. If the first patch conflicts this can happen
because dim apply-branch doesn't bail out correctly. Or at least did
in the past, I recently fixed that in

If your dim didn't have the above commit and you had a conflict it's
all explained. Otherwise I'm not sure what's been going on ...
