While display is not supported through TegraDRM on Tegra234+, certain multimedia accelerators are supported, so we need to finish probe for those.

Ideally you also register the tegra driver without DRIVER_MODESET | DRIVER_ATOMIC in that case, to avoid unecessary userspace confusion. Most userspace can cope with a display driver without any crtc, but I think xorg-modesettting actually falls over. Or at least I've seen some hacks that the agx people added to make sure X doesn't accidentally open the wrong driver. -Sima > > Cheers, > Mikko > > > > > Best regards > > Thomas > > > >> + err = drm_aperture_remove_framebuffers(&tegra_drm_driver); > >> + if (err < 0) > >> + goto hub; > >> + } > >> err = drm_dev_register(drm, 0); > >> if (err < 0) > > >

Sure, will do. > I also wonder if is worth to move the drm_num_crtcs() function from > drivers/gpu/drm/drm_crtc.c to include/drm/drm_crtc.h and use that helper > instead? I've been looking at this, there's a few things that come to mind. It seems like we have a couple of different ways to get the number of CRTCs for a device. We have struct drm_device's num_crtcs, which is set during drm_vblank_init(), then we have struct drm_mode_config's num_crtc, which is incremented every time a new CRTC is added (and decremented when a CRTC is removed), and finally we've got the drm_num_crtcs() which "computes" the number of CRTCs registered by iterating over all CRTCs that have been registered. Are there any cases where these three can yield different values? Would it not make sense to consolidate these into a single variable? Thierry

However I recall from earlier attempts at doing something like this in Nouveau (although this is now very long ago) that it's not very easy. The problem, as I recall, is that the driver is a singleton, so we would essentially be supporting either modesetting or not, for any device in the system. Now, it's unlikely that we'd have a mix of one Tegra DRM driver with display support and another without, but it's something that I recall back at the time with Nouveau was problematic because you could have the Tegra integrated graphics (without display support) and a PCI-connected discrete GPU (with display support) within the same system. I need to look into it a bit more to see if I can come up with something good to account for this. Thierry

Take a look at struct drm_device.driver_features. It let's you clear the flags that your device doesn't support. https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.5/source/include/drm/drm_device.h#L128 Best regards Thomas > > Now, it's unlikely that we'd have a mix of one Tegra DRM driver with > display support and another without, but it's something that I recall > back at the time with Nouveau was problematic because you could have the > Tegra integrated graphics (without display support) and a PCI-connected > discrete GPU (with display support) within the same system. > > I need to look into it a bit more to see if I can come up with something > good to account for this. > > Thierry
