The "proper" way to do this is to work with the existing in-kernel
tracing subsystem and work to get the missing features that are in lttng
into those subsystems.

<title>staging: add omapdrm DRM/KMS driver for TI OMAP platforms</title>

<id>cd5351f4d2b1b884d8c21a7636d5c0ea3b69d123</id>
<content type='text'>
A DRM display driver for TI OMAP platform.  Similar to omapfb (fbdev)
and omap_vout (v4l2 display) drivers in the past, this driver uses the
DSS2 driver to access the display hardware, including support for
HDMI, DVI, and various types of LCD panels.  And it implements GEM
support for buffer allocation (for KMS as well as offscreen buffers
used by the xf86-video-omap userspace xorg driver).

The driver maps CRTCs to overlays, encoders to overlay-managers, and
connectors to dssdev's.  Note that this arrangement might change slightly
when support for drm_plane overlays is added.

For GEM support, non-scanout buffers are using the shmem backed pages
provided by GEM core (In drm_gem_object_init()).  In the case of scanout
buffers, which need to be physically contiguous, those are allocated
with CMA and use drm_gem_private_object_init().

See userspace xorg driver:
git://github.com/robclark/xf86-video-omap.git

Refer to this link for CMA (Continuous Memory Allocator):
http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/19/302

Links to previous versions of the patch:
v1: http://lwn.net/Articles/458137/
v2: http://patches.linaro.org/4156/
v3: http://patches.linaro.org/4688/
v4: http://patches.linaro.org/4791/

History:

v5: move headers from include/drm at Greg KH's request, minor rebasing
    on 3.2-rc1, pull in private copies of drm_gem_{get,put}_pages()
    because "drm/gem: add functions to get/put pages" patch is not
    merged yet
v4: bit of rework of encoder/connector _dpms() code, modeset_init()
    rework to not use nested functions, update TODO.txt
v3: minor cleanups, improved error handling for dev_load(), some minor
    API changes that will be needed later for tiled buffer support
v2: replace omap_vram with CMA for scanout buffer allocation, remove
    unneeded functions, use dma_addr_t for physical addresses, error
    handling cleanup, refactor attach/detach pages into common drm
    functions, split non-userspace-facing API into omap_priv.h, remove
    plugin API

v1: original

In practice, it is being hard to distinguish when a patch
should go to staging tree or to the media tree. Better
to distinguish it, by putting the media drivers at a
separate staging directory. Newer staging drivers that include
anything with "dvb*.h", "v4l2*.h" or "videodev2.h" should
go to the drivers/staging/media tree.

Fix compilation errors in the USB driver by replacing usb_buffer_free(),
usb_buffer_alloc() with usb_free_coherent() and usb_alloc_coherent().
Add entries for the driver in parent Makefile and Kconfig.
