Subject: [PATCH v3 1/7] drm/encoder: add mutex to protect the bridge chain
Date: Thu, 09 Oct 2025 13:38:56 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251009-drm-bridge-alloc-encoder-chain-mutex-v3-1-c90ed744efec@bootlin.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251009-drm-bridge-alloc-encoder-chain-mutex-v3-0-c90ed744efec@bootlin.com>

The per-encoder bridge chain is currently assumed to be static once it is
fully initialized. Work is in progress to add hot-pluggable bridges,
breaking that assumption.

With bridge removal, the encoder chain can change without notice, removing
tail bridges. This can be problematic while iterating over the chain.

Add a mutex to be taken whenever looping or changing the encoder chain.

Signed-off-by: Luca Ceresoli <luca.ceresoli@bootlin.com>

Changes in v3:
- Removed the drm_encoder_chain_[un]lock() wrappers

Changes in v2:
- Added documentation to new APIs
