Re: [PATCH] drm/simple-helpers: Always add planes to the state update

Our update function is hooked to the single plane, which might not get
called for crtc-only updates. Which is surprising, so fix this by
always adding the plane.

While at it document how&when the event should be sent out better in
the kerneldoc.

I'm not entirely sure we really want to put the responsibility for
this onto driver. Plan B) would be to remove the kerneldoc I added
here and call the right function from drm_simple_kms_plane_atomic_update.
That way simple drivers don't need to deal with that detail, and in
general those drivers don't care that much about the miniscule
possible race a generic implementation would cause. What do you
suggest as the best approach?

If the driver is responsible, a helper like this would be nice:

void drm_simple_display_pipe_handle_vblank_event(struct drm_simple_display_pipe *pipe)
{
    struct drm_crtc *crtc = &pipe->crtc;

    if (crtc->state && crtc->state->event) {
        spin_lock_irq(&crtc->dev->event_lock);
        drm_crtc_send_vblank_event(crtc, crtc->state->event);
        spin_unlock_irq(&crtc->dev->event_lock);
        crtc->state->event = NULL;
    }
}

Then if the update() callback is not set, drm_simple_kms_plane_atomic_update
calls this, and if it is set, then the driver has to do it or something
similar.

It is difficult to predict what future drivers will need.
Unless there are drivers on the horizon that will need to handle the
event themselves, I suggest that we follow your plan B. If the need arises,
we just add a one-liner to all drivers that has the update() callback set.

Noralf.

Sidenote:
When I converted simpledrm I had problems with flip_done timeouts.
In the end I had to check for the event in disable/enable/update.
Trying it again now, it's enough to do it in update().
Not sure what has changed.
