qdev->monitors_config->max_allowed is effectively set by the qxl.num_heads module parameter, stored in the qxl_num_crtc variable. Lets get rid of the indirection and use the variable qxl_num_crtc directly. The kernel doesn't need to dereference pointers each time it needs the value, and when reading the code you don't have to trace where and why

Skip the pointless and slightly confusing indirection via qdev->monitors_config->max_allowed. Just use qxl_num_crtc instead.

Just use qxl_num_crtc directly everywhere instead of using qdev->monitors_config->max_allowed. Drops pointless indirection and also is less confusing.

The encoder callbacks are only called in case the video mode changes. So any layout changes without mode changes will go unnoticed. Add qxl_crtc_update_monitors_config(), based on the old qxl_write_monitors_config_for_encoder() function. Hook it into the enable, disable and flush atomic crtc callbacks. Remove monitors_config updates from all other places. Fixes:

The qxl device supports only a single active framebuffer ("primary surface" in spice terminology). In multihead configurations are handled by defining rectangles within the primary surface for each head/crtc. Userspace which uses the qxl ioctl interface (xorg qxl driver) is aware of this limitation and will setup framebuffers and crtcs accordingly. Userspace which uses dumb

qxl has two modes: "native" (used by the drm driver) and "vga" (vga compatibility mode, typically used for boot display and firmware framebuffers). Accessing any vga ioport will switch the qxl device into vga mode. The qxl driver never does that, but other drivers accessing vga ports can trigger that too and therefore disturb qxl operation. So aquire the legacy vga ioports

Call qxl_add_monitors_config_modes() unconditionally. Do all sanity checks in that function. Fix sanity checks. monitors_config is the current monitor configuration, whereas client_monitors_config is the configuration requested by the spice client. So when filling the mode list, based on the spice client request, we need to look at client_monitors_config->count not

Try to read the client monitors config at driver load time, even without explicit notification. So in case that info was filled before the driver loaded and we've missed the notifications because of that the settings will still be used. With that place we now have to take care to properly handle a empty client monitors config, so we don't trip over an uninitialized client monitors
