Re: [PATCH v3 7/7] [wip] virtio-gpu: add page flip support

  Hi,

quoted

Right now the virtual outputs are linked to drm_crtc.  To apply any
changes I need to lookup the crtc to figure which virtual output should
be updated.

So, setting active_only should make sure I have a valid crtc pointer on
plane updates, right?  It probably also skips the disable + enable crtc
steps on commit?  What happens when outputs are disabled?

Nah, I just misunderstood your patch. If it's all about finding the
corresponding crtc, then you're all good.

Yes, it's all about finding the crtc.

I thought there was some
other reason (like the virtual hw getting upset about certain things).

virtio wouldn't be upset.

It's a pointless exercise though to first disable the output, just to
re-enable it the next moment with the new page-flipped framebuffer.  So
I guess I should look at the active_only thing nevertheless.

btw can you pls drop an ack or r-b
onto my virtio conversion? I already added your tested-by.

Grr, mail is not in my dri-devel folder.  Guess that is the <censored>
"avoid-duplicates" mailman option at work.

Feel free to just add the r-b too.  Or I'll send it for the next version
of the series.

cheers,
