Kernel Display and Video API Consolidation Summit
Registered by
Jesse Barker
In certain kernel subsystems (DRM, FB, V4L), it is necessary to abstract functionality and control interfaces for a wide variety of display hardware. Each of these currently has its own solution for this which causes contention and code duplication both between the subsystems as well as for device driver writers. We would like to discuss possibilities for consolidating some of these APIs for better code commonality, reuse and stability.
