Subject: [PATCH 6.6.y 1/2] drm/fbdev-helper: Set and clear VGA switcheroo client from fb_info
Date: Thu, 28 May 2026 21:18:16 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260528131817.59900-1-jetlan9@163.com> (raw)
From: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de>
[ Upstream commit 02257549daf7ff839e2be6d4f3cac975e522fd7a ]
Call vga_switcheroo_client_fb_set() with the PCI device from the
instance of struct fb_info. All fbdev clients now run these calls.
For non-PCI devices or drivers without vga-switcheroo, this does
nothing. For i915 and radeon, it allows these drivers to use a
common fbdev client.
The device is the same as the one stored in struct drm_client and
struct drm_fb_helper, so there is no difference in behavior. Some
NULL-pointer checks are being removed, where those pointers cannot
be NULL.
v4:
- clarify call semantics for drm_fb_helper_unregister_info() (Javier)

[ The variable 'dev' in the function drm_fb_helper_single_fb_probe() is
unused; remove it in v6.6. ]
