Next 2 calls can be swapped, depending on whether planes need to be programmed before crtc enabling or after: { drm_atomic_helper_commit_modeset_enables() -> putting enables here.. drm_atomic_helper_commit_planes() } drm_atomic_helper_commit_hw_done() drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_flip_done() drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_vblanks() drm_atomic_helper_cleanup_planes() } You can always trace the flow and see if there's a function call that's useful for you in there. Thank you for such a detailed explanation I would just call set_config if required in 2 places, once in crtc disable, once in crtc enable. Well, in the other mail thread [1] Ville Syrjälä gave an idea to switch from own CRTC implementation to drm_simple_kms_helper which can be definitely done now as I'm moving from legacy to fully atomic operation. So, I did the change and have something like the below now: static void display_enable(struct drm_simple_display_pipe *pipe, struct drm_crtc_state *crtc_state) { struct drm_plane *plane = >plane; struct drm_framebuffer *fb = plane->state->fb; struct drm_crtc *crtc = >crtc; display_set_config(pipe, fb); drm_crtc_vblank_on(crtc); } static void display_disable(struct drm_simple_display_pipe *pipe) { struct drm_crtc *crtc = >crtc; display_set_config(pipe, NULL); drm_crtc_vblank_off(crtc); } I believe this is what you meant while suggesting "once in crtc disable, once in crtc enable" WRT drm_simple_kms_helper's drm_simple_display_pipe_funcs callbacks. Candidates I am playing with are: 1. drm_crtc_helper_funcs.atomic_flush 2. drm_mode_config_funcs.atomic_commit During experiments with the above I see that during "on" phase in the drm_crtc_state I can see that mode, enable and active
