Last time i've looked DRM drivers using the mipi dsi helpers do _not_ have "drm_mipi_dsi" as their driver name. Hence drivers using the mipi dbi should not have "drm_mipi_dbi". That said, we should probably highlight even more that the driver name is an ABI. -Emil _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
