Hello, Rob.
Below is my answers and questions. and could you please include me as CC
when you post your driver?

Thank you.

I wanted it separates buffer allocator from gem but now seeing it, it
doesn't need to do so as you pointed out. I will combine it to
samsung_drm_gem_obj. thank you.

display is static object set by hardware specific driver such as display
controller or hdmi. each hardware specific driver has their own display
object statically. You can refer to the definition in samsung_drm_fimd.c.
and I understood a encoder and a connector is 1:1 relationship, when any
hardware specific driver is probed, they would be created with a manager
that includes their own display object as pointer. Could you please give me
more comments why display object should be considered for multiple
instances? I am afraid there is any part I don't care.

thank you.

For this, it was already commented by Joonyoun Shim.

I think our driver creates encoder and connector dynamically. please, see
samsung_drm_subdrv_probe() of samsung_drm_core.c. hardware specific drivers
such as display controller and hdmi are registered to
samsung_drm_subdrv_list and when drm driver is probed, once subdrv->probe
callback is called, a encoder and a connector would be created dynamically.
if there is any missing point, feel free to give me your comments please.

Thank you.

Yes, at booting time, one gem object is created. this is for linux
framebuffer and used as default buffer. register_framebuffer function is
called one time at booting time by drm driver. but when this driver is built
as modules, this gem object should be released with rmmod modules. and the
reason fb has file point is that drm_gem_handle_delete requests it to
release a gem object. our driver considered modularization also. If there is
any point I missed, give me any comment please. Thank you.

I referred to your code. :) and I wish this code is moved to mainline to be
used commonly.

Ok, I know you had posted this patch to be used commonly. but it isn't
applied to dri git. If applied, I will change it to common fxn but for now I
will add a comment.

No, see drm_gem_object_lookup fxn. at this function, if there is a object
found then drm_gem_object_reference is called to increase refcount of this
object. if there is any missing point, give me any comment please. thank
you.

Actually, usr_addr isn't used anywhere, so I removed it already and Dave
pointed out it before.

Ok, I will use stdint types for it. thank you.

No, as I gave you the words about it before, the offset means physical
memory offset to be mapped to user space. and mapped has user virtual
address from do_mmap.

Thank you for your comments and advices again. it's been very useful.  :)
