Closer approximation of dwim semantics. There's been tons of patch series all over drm and related places to get there, once we have a big pile of implementations and know what the dwim semantics should be. Individually they're all not much, in aggregate they substantially simplify simple drivers. -Daniel

I disagree on this being a midlayer - you can still overwrite everything you please to. What it does help is people doing less copypasting (and assorted bugs), at least in the grand scheme of things. And we do have a _lot_ more random small drivers than just a few years ago. Reducing the amount of explicit typing just to get default bahaviour has been an ongoing theme for a few years now, and your objection here is about the first that this is not a good idea. So I'm somewhat confused. It's ofc not all that useful when looking only through the i915 perspective, where we overwrite almost everything anyway. But the ecosystem is a bit bigger than just i915. -Daniel

In really monolithic vtables like drm_driver we do use default function macros, so you type 1 line, get them all. But dma_fence_ops is pretty small, and most drivers only implement a few callbacks. Also note that e.g. the ->release callback already works like that, so this pattern is there already. I simply extended it to ->wait and ->enable_signaling. Also note that I leave the EXPORT_SYMBOL in place, you can still wrap dma_fence_default_wait if you wish to do so. But I just realized that I didn't clean out the optional release hooks, I guess I should do that too (for the few cases it's not yet done) and respin. -Daniel

I kind of agree with Chris here, but also see the practical problem to copy the default function in all the implementations. We had the same problem in TTM and I also don't really like the result to always have that "if (some_callback) default(); else some_callback();". Might be that the run time overhead is negligible, but it doesn't feels right from the coding style perspective. Christian. > -Daniel

Hm, maybe I've seen too much bad code, but modeset helpers is choke full of exactly that pattern. It's imo also a trade-off. If you have a fairly specialized library like ttm that's used by relatively few things, doing everything explicitly is probably better. It's also where kms started out from. But if you have a huge pile of fairly simple drivers, imo the balance starts to tip the other way, and a bit of additional logic in the shared code to make all the implementations a notch simpler is good. If we wouldn't have acquired quite a pile of dma_fence implementations I wouldn't have bothered with all this. -Daniel
