Hold temporary memory for format conversion in an instance of struct drm_format_conv_state. Update internal helpers of DRM's format-conversion code accordingly. Drivers will later be able to maintain this cache by themselves. Besides caching, struct drm_format_conv_state will be useful to hold additional information for format conversion, such as palette data or foreground/background colors. This will enable conversion from indexed color formats to component-based formats. v5: * improve documentation (Javier, Noralf) v3: * rename struct drm_xfrm_buf to struct drm_format_conv_state (Javier) * remove managed cleanup * add drm_format_conv_state_copy() for shadow-plane support Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javierm@redhat.com> Acked-by: Noralf Trønnes <noralf@tronnes.org> Tested-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javierm@redhat.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20231009141018.11291-2-tzimmermann@suse.de
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
