Yannick, please don't send this to linux-kernel and dri-devel lists and also please don't Cc kernel developers when resubmitting the patch series. -- Anatolij

I couldn't agree more! I mentioned this on the previous confusing post (where I had the same objection as Daniel, before realizing this was just a poorly-documented, ill-targeted U-Boot patch series). Brian

This is confusing, but by the looks of it this is code for U-Boot display support and has nothing to do with the Linux kernel. I don't know why dri-devel was on Cc. Yannick, it's not customary to cross-post U-Boot display drivers to Linux mailing lists, unless there's some need to coordinate or discuss across the boundaries (for example if you were proposing a way to do seamless handover from U-Boot to kernel). If you do cross-post, perhaps make sure to mark these patches as targetting U-Boot to avoid confusion. Thierry
