Subject: [PATCH v4 2/7] drm: nova: Add DRM registration data
Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2026 15:06:52 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260811050657.646799-3-apopple@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260811050657.646799-1-apopple@nvidia.com>
Currently the nova-drm stub driver doesn't really interact with a real
device, so it doesn't have any registration data and has no way to call
into nova-core.
To allow for this add a DrmRegData type which will hold a reference to
the NovaCoreApi associated with the auxbus device.

Changes from v2:
- Add newline in crate import
Changes from v1:
- Drop unrelated device::Bound removal.
- Switch exisiting import to vertical style.
- s/allow(dead_code)/expect(unused)/
