I actually am conflicted about this idea, but I still think that here the best option would be to put a device-tree property. In which context here the module parameters could be used ? I think a module parameter would be quite troublesome for userspace applications in that case. Raphaël > > I think it makes more sense to have dts parameters. Should maybe apply here too > > Michael

Dario's usage of this stm driver is STM32 MCUs (STM32F4 & F7...) where, sometimes, old userland fbdev-based applications are used, and I imagine it is maybe "easier" to use a module parameter (through the kernel command line or whatever...) in these use cases (even if using dt is always better and not that complex). Moreover, as I did not find any drm drivers with drm_fbdev_dma_setup() using a dt property "as example" (but always hard-coded value), then I decided to not block this proposal :) Thanks to your feedback, I am reconsidering my position. And sorry Dario, hope you understand it will take more time for reviewing your patch. Does anyone have an opinion to share on this point? Many thanks, Philippe :-)
