+/**
+ * DOC: overview
+ *
+ * This helper library provides implementations of check and commit functions on
+ * top of the CRTC modeset helper callbacks and the plane helper callbacks. It
+ * also provides convenience implementations for the atomic state handling
+ * callbacks for drivers which don't need to subclass the drm core structures to
+ * add their own additional internal state.
+ *
+ * This library also provides default implementations for the check callback in
+ * drm_atomic_helper_check and for the commit callback with
+ * drm_atomic_helper_commit. But the individual stages and callbacks are expose
+ * to allow drivers to mix and match and e.g. use the plane helpers only
+ * together with a driver private modeset implementation.
+ *
+ * This library also provides implementations for all the legacy driver
+ * interfaces on top of the atomic interface. See drm_atomic_helper_set_config,
+ * drm_atomic_helper_disable_plane, drm_atomic_helper_disable_plane and the
+ * various functions to implement set_property callbacks. New drivers must not
+ * implement these functions themselves but must use the provided helpers.

+/**
+ * DOC: atomic state reset and initialization

+ * Both the drm core and the atomic helpers assume that there is always the full
+ * and correct atomic software state for all connectors, CRTCs and planes
+ * available. Which is a bit a problem on driver load and also after system
+ * suspend. One way to solve this is to have a hardware state read-out
+ * infrastructure which reconstructs the full software state (e.g. the i915
+ * driver).
+ *
+ * The simpler solution is to just reset the software state to everything off,
+ * which is easiest to do by calling drm_mode_config_reset(). To facilitate this
+ * the atomic helpers provide default reset implementations for all hooks.

+ * configuration on resume with drm_helper_resume_force_mode().
+ *
+ * The driver callbacks are mostly compatible with the atomic modeset helpers,
+ * except for the handling of the primary plane: Atomic helpers require that the
+ * primary plane is implemented as a real standalone plane and not directly tied
+ * to the CRTC state. For easier transition this library provides functions to
+ * implement the old semantics required by the CRTC helpers using the new plane
+ * and atomic helper callbacks.
+ *
+ * Drivers are strongly urged to convert to the atomic helpers (by way of first
+ * converting to the plane helpers). New drivers must not use these functions
+ * but need to implement the atomic interface instead, potentially using the
+ * atomic helpers for that.

+/**
+ * DOC: overview
+ *
+ * This helper library has two parts. The first part has support to implement
+ * primary plane support on top of the normal CRTC configuration interface.
+ * Since the legacy ->set_config interface ties the primary plane together with
+ * the CRTC state this does not allow userspace to disable the primary plane
+ * itself. To avoid too much duplicated code use
+ * drm_plane_helper_check_update() which can be used to enforce the same
+ * restrictions as primary planes had thus. The default primary plane only
+ * expose XRBG8888 and ARGB8888 as valid pixel formats for the attached
+ * framebuffer.
+ *
+ * Drivers are highly recommended to implement proper support for primary
+ * planes, and newly merged drivers must not rely upon these transitional
+ * helpers.
+ *
+ * The second part also implements transitional helpers which allow drivers to
+ * gradually switch to the atomic helper infrastructure for plane updates. Once
+ * that switch is complete drivers shouldn't use these any longer, instead using
+ * the proper legacy implementations for update and disable plane hooks provided
+ * by the atomic helpers.
+ *
+ * Again drivers are strongly urged to switch to the new interfaces.
