- For each encoder, CRTC, and connector, several functions must
- be provided, depending on the object type. Encoder objects
- need to provide a DPMS (basically on/off) function, mode fixup
- (for converting requested modes into native hardware timings),
- and prepare, set and commit functions for use by the core DRM
- helper functions. Connector helpers need to provide mode fetch and
- validity functions as well as an encoder matching function for
- returning an ideal encoder for a given connector. The core
- connector functions include a DPMS callback, (deprecated)
- save/restore routines, detection, mode probing, property handling,
- and cleanup functions.
