[PATCH 0/1] apple-gmux: Assign apple_gmux_data before registering

[Lukas Wunner]

Hi Darren,

the following patch is a useful fix for apple-gmux by Matthew Garrett
which is well over a year old but unfortunately never got merged.

The commit message makes it sound as if the fix is only needed for
reprobing (in case apple-gmux registers after the DRM drivers).
I'm not yet sure if we'll use reprobing or deferred initialization,
however the patch is needed even if we go with deferred initialization
as it fixes a race condition that is triggered by invoking a handler
callback between the call to vga_switcheroo_register_handler() and the
assignment of apple_gmux_data.

The patch has seen extensive testing and is actively used by myself
and others on various MacBook Pro models.

Could you take a look at the patch and (barring any objections) ack it?

Thanks,

Lukas

[PATCH 1/1] apple-gmux: Assign apple_gmux_data before registering

[Lukas Wunner]

From: Matthew Garrett <matthew.garrett@nebula.com>

Registering the handler after both GPUs will trigger a DDC switch for
connector reprobing. This will oops if apple_gmux_data hasn't already
been assigned. Reorder the code to do that.

My apologies for the delay. Thank you for the testing data and submitting.

I have queued this to testing. Pending success on 0-day, it will land in
linux-next shortly (tomorrow most likely) where I hope it will receive
additional testing.

[Darren Hart]

Hi Lukas,

Please send the patch to the list and maintainers reported by
get_maintainer.pl (specifically the platform-driver-x86 list and my
infradead ID) so we can have the review on list.

Thanks,
