Hi, I think it's fine. However, the sentence "The kernel won't fill any array which doesn't have the expected length." seems to be inaccurate, reading the code of drm_mode_getplane(). It looks like it is enough for the array to have sufficient space, it does not need to be the exact size. So the libdrm algorithm may be slightly too pedantic, but it shouldn't hurt. Otherwise looks really good. Thanks, pq > > struct drm_mode_get_plane { > > + /** > > + * @plane_id: Object ID of the plane whose information should be > > + * retrieved.
