This patch makes the internal encoder implementation of the simple KMS helpers available to drivers. These simple-encoder helpers initialize an encoder with an empty implementation. This covers the requirements of most of the existing DRM drivers. A call to drm_simple_encoder_create() allocates and initializes an encoder instance, a call to drm_simple_encoder_init() initializes a pre-allocated instance. v3: * remove drm_simple_encoder_create(); not required yet * provide more precise documentation v2: * move simple encoder to KMS helpers * remove name argument; simplifies implementation * don't allocate with devm_ interfaces; unsafe with DRM Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20200228081828.18463-2-tzimmermann@suse.de
