+ * DOC: overview
+ *
+ * The DRM mode setting helper functions are common code for drivers to use if
+ * they wish. Drivers are not forced to use this code in their
+ * implementations but it would be useful if the code they do use at least
+ * provides a consistent interface and operation to userspace. Therefore it is
+ * highly recommended to use the provided helpers as much as possible.
+ *
+ * Because there is only one pointer per modeset object to hold a vfunc table
+ * for helper libraries they are by necessity shared among the different
+ * helpers.
+ *
+ * To make this clear all the helper vtables are pulled together in this location here.

+ * This hook is called by drm_atomic_helper_async_commit().
+ *
+ * An async update will happen on legacy cursor updates. An async
+ * update won't happen if there is an outstanding commit modifying
+ * the same plane.
+ *
+ * Note that unlike &drm_plane_helper_funcs.atomic_update this hook
+ * takes the new &drm_plane_state as parameter. When doing async_update
+ * drivers shouldn't replace the &drm_plane_state but update the
+ * current one with the new plane configurations in the new
+ * plane_state.
+ *
+ * Drivers should also swap the framebuffers between current plane
+ * state (&drm_plane.state) and new_state.
+ * This is required since cleanup for async commits is performed on
+ * the new state, rather than old state like for traditional commits.
+ * Since we want to give up the reference on the current (old) fb
+ * instead of our brand new one, swap them in the driver during the
+ * async commit.
+ *
+ * FIXME:
+ * - It only works for single plane updates
+ * - Async Pageflips are not supported yet
+ * - Some hw might still scan out the old buffer until the next
+ * vblank, however we let go of the fb references as soon as
+ * we run this hook. For now drivers must implement their own workers
+ * for deferring if needed, until a common solution is created.

+ * helpers (see drm_atomic_helper_setup_commit() for a starting point)
+ * to implement blocking and nonblocking commits easily. It is not used

+ *
+ * This function is called when the new atomic state has already been
+ * swapped into the various state pointers. The passed in state
+ * therefore contains copies of the old/previous state. This hook should
+ * commit the new state into hardware. Note that the helpers have
+ * already waited for preceeding atomic commits and fences, but drivers
+ * can add more waiting calls at the start of their implementation, e.g.
+ * to wait for driver-internal request for implicit syncing, before
+ * starting to commit the update to the hardware.
+ *
+ * After the atomic update is committed to the hardware this hook needs
+ * to call drm_atomic_helper_commit_hw_done(). Then wait for the upate
+ * to be executed by the hardware, for example using
+ * drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_vblanks() or
+ * drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_flip_done(), and then clean up the old
+ * framebuffers using drm_atomic_helper_cleanup_planes().
+ *
+ * When disabling a CRTC this hook _must_ stall for the commit to
+ * complete. Vblank waits don't work on disabled CRTC, hence the core
+ * can't take care of this. And it also can't rely on the vblank event,
+ * since that can be signalled already when the screen shows black,
+ * which can happen much earlier than the last hardware access needed to
+ * shut off the display pipeline completely.
+ *
+ * This hook is optional, the default implementation is
+ * drm_atomic_helper_commit_tail().
