PL111 DRM for TI Nspire

PL111 DRM for TI Nspire

[Linus Walleij]

Hi folks,

I have one more user of the old PL111 fbdev driver before I can
switch them all over to the new DRM driver in drivers/gpu/drm/pl111
and finally delete the old driver: TI Nspire.

Before I invest time I want to ascertain that the maintainers are
actively using Nspire and can test patches in reasonable time if
I work on this, since I cannot test it myself.

It seems easy enough to convert that I would dare dry-coding it
if I can get some help testing and fixing up rough edges.

Is Nspire ready to test some patches?

Yours,
Linus Walleij

Hi Linus,

Thanks for reaching out. At this stage, I’m not able to personally test patches as I’m no longer actively developing on this platform. However, I will reach out and direct your request to some people who can help (and hopefully find a more appropriate maintainer). 

I will try to get back to you as soon as possible.

Cheers,
Daniel

Yes! Just point me to whatever tree to test with which patches on top and I'll
give them a test run or two.

Cheers,
Fabian
