We have DRM drivers based on USB, SPI and platform devices. All of them are fine with storing their device reference in struct drm_device.dev. PCI devices should be no exception. Therefore struct drm_device.pdev is deprecated. Instead upcast from struct drm_device.dev with to_pci_dev(). PCI-specific code can use dev_is_pci() to test for a PCI device. This patch changes the DRM core code and documentation accordingly. v4: * split-off pdev deprecation into separate patch Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Acked-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Tested-by: Andy Lavr <andy.lavr@gmail.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20210118131420.15874-2-tzimmermann@suse.de
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
