From: Jose Abreu <jose.abreu@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

HDMI 2.0 spec adds support for ycbcr420 subsampled output.
CEA-861-F adds two new blocks in EDID, to provide information about
sink's support for ycbcr420 output.

These new blocks are:
- ycbcr420 video data (vdb) block: video modes which can be supported
     only in ycbcr420 output mode.
- ycbcr420 video capability data (vcb) block: video modes which can be
     support in ycbcr420 output mode also (along with RGB, YCBCR 444/422 etc)

This patch adds parsing and handling of ycbcr420-vdb in the DRM
layer.

This patch is a modified version of Jose's RFC patch:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9492327/
so the authorship is maintained.

Adding those would again break the uabi. We can't add new mode flags
without some kind of client cap.
But I think we agreed that new user
space visible mode flags aren't needed, and instad we can keep it all
internal?
Yep you are right, we had decided to keep it internal, and this whole
patch series is implemented in such a way only, to control everything
through the HDMI output property itself.
But may be I slightly misunderstood that we shouldn't add the flags bits
all together, and I added this flag to differentiate between YCBCR420
and notmal modes.
Can you please suggest me on:
- how to differentiate a YCBCR420 mode with normal mode ? I still need
to add a flag, but not expose it into uapi layer.
I guess we can just tack on a few new bools to the end of
drm_display_mode. And then when we get the mode passed in by the user
we'll have to check whether that mode matches any CEA mode and
then look up the correct YCbCr 4:2:0 mode for it.
seems good to me, I can add a is_ycbcr420 flag, and we need not to
bother about converting it to drm_mode_modeinfo as we are keeping it
internal.
Hmm. Actually, that probably means that it isn't sufficient to
actually store this information on the modes we have on the connector's
mode list, because that list has been filtered and so may not actually
have all the modes that were declared in the EDID.
I dint get this point,  Why do you think its not sufficient ? Do we need
to care about the modes which are getting rejected from the driver ?
Yes, that was my worry. In general I don't think connector->modes should
ever be used for mode validation or state computation. Eg. if fbdev
handled the previus hotplug connector->modes will have been filtered
based on the size of the fb_helper framebuffer, and then a new master
might just blindly come in and blindly set a new mode without doing a
full connector probe.
Its very valid point when it comes to resolution, but do you think fbdev will reject based on the flags (YCBCR420_only/also) . I mean if I add YCBCR420 info as bools (like in your previous suggestion), would that alter fbdev selection ? Nevertheless, a YCBCR420 bitmap seems to be a good idea already, just as soon as we can map it clearly with the hdmi_output property.
I guess they cant be applied anyways.  Do you think we will miss some of
the YCBCR modes due to mode filtering ?
So I'm thinking we
should perhaps make the bitmap parsed from the Y402CMDB index the
full CEA mode list. That we can just lookup the matching VIC for
the user provided mode and check whether the bit for that VIC
indicates 4:2:0 support. And maybe we can handle Y420VDB in exactly
the same way (ie. just a second bitmap). That would have the additional
nice feature that the maximum length of those bitmaps is well defined
(at most 256 VICs).

We can do this, but do we really need 2 bitmaps ? A YCBCR420 support is
same whether its coming from VCB or VDB, we just need a ORing of these
supports.
We'll need to know if the mode is one of the "4:2:0 only" modes so that
we'll automagically pick 4:2:0 whenever the user asks for this mode.
And we'll need to know whether the mode is one of the "4:2:0 too" modes
when the user asks for 4:2:0 for explicitly. The latter case of course
needs a new property for that purpose.
The current design is as per out last discussion, where the hdmi_output property decides what would be the possible output. So if userspace sets hdmi_output to YCBCR420, and sends modeset, we will just check if we can support this mode in YCBCR420 in intel_hdmi_compute_ycbcr_config, and decide to accept or reject the modeset. IF you can please have a look at the 8th patch in I915 layer (https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/149107/ ) it would be easier
for us to discus if my approach needs any more changes there too.

As of now (only in current design) one property is serving the purpose, probably I need to fine tune this also.
- Shashank
Even in the current implementation, I have been using only the
YCBCR420_MASK to identify support.
