Re: [PATCH] drm: Create support for Write-Only property blob

Hi Jani,
There is still one piece missing in the puzzle to be done.
This is the patch for the HDCP implementation in the kernel needing a
secret key: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/94623/
The implementation currently uses debugfs in testing. The next step is
to use the blob created instead to inject the key into the kernel,
So, so far what we have implemented in the user space creating the
blob and injecting it into the kernel, and the part where the key is
needed,
Thanks!
