This patch is a DRM Driver for Samsung SoC Exynos4210 and now enables
only FIMD yet but we will add HDMI support also in the future.
from now on, I will remove RFC prefix because I think we have got comments
enough.
this patch is based on git repository below:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/airlied/drm-2.6.git,
branch name: drm-next
commit-id: bcc65fd8e929a9d9d34d814d6efc1d2793546922
you can refer to our working repository below:
http://git.infradead.org/users/kmpark/linux-2.6-samsung
branch name: samsung-drm
We tried to re-use lowlevel codes of the FIMD driver(s3c-fb.c
based on Linux framebuffer) but couldn't so because lowlevel codes
of s3c-fb.c are included internally and so FIMD module of this driver has
its own lowlevel codes.
We used GEM framework for buffer management and DMA APIs(dma_alloc_*)
for buffer allocation. by using DMA API, we could use CMA later.
Refer to this link for CMA(Continuous Memory Allocator):
http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/7/20/45
this driver supports only physically continuous memory(non-iommu).
Links to previous versions of the patchset:
v1:< https://lwn.net/Articles/454380/>
v2:< http://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg1224275.html>
v3:< http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1423684>
Changelog v2:
DRM: add DRM_IOCTL_SAMSUNG_GEM_MMAP ioctl command.
this feature maps user address space to physical memory region
once user application requests DRM_IOCTL_SAMSUNG_GEM_MMAP ioctl.
DRM: code clean and add exception codes.
Changelog v3:
DRM: Support multiple irq.
FIMD and HDMI have their own irq handler but DRM Framework can regiter
only one irq handler this patch supports mutiple irq for Samsung SoC.
DRM: Consider modularization.
each DRM, FIMD could be built as a module.
DRM: Have indenpendent crtc object.
crtc isn't specific to SoC Platform so this patch gets a crtc
to be used as common object.
created crtc could be attached to any encoder object.
DRM: code clean and add exception codes.
Changelog v4:
DRM: remove is_defult from samsung_fb.
is_default isn't used for default framebuffer.
DRM: code refactoring to fimd module.
this patch is be considered with multiple display objects and
would use its own request_irq() to register a irq handler instead of
drm framework's one.
DRM: remove find_samsung_drm_gem_object()
DRM: move kernel private data structures and definitions to driver folder.
samsung_drm.h would contain only public information for userspace
ioctl interface.
DRM: code refactoring to gem modules.
buffer module isn't dependent of gem module anymore.
DRM: fixed security issue.
DRM: remove encoder porinter from specific connector.
samsung connector doesn't need to have generic encoder.
DRM: code clean and add exception codes.

Hi!
With reference my previous security comment.
Let's say you have a compromised video player running as a DRM client,
that tries to repeatedly allocate huge GEM buffers...
What will happen when all DMA memory is exhausted? Will this cause other
device drivers to see an OOM, or only DRM?
The old DRI model basically allowed any authorized DRI client to exhaust
video ram or AGP memory, but never system memory. Newer DRI drivers
typically only allow DRI masters to do that.
as
I don't think an authorized DRI client should be able to easily exhaust
resources (DMA memory) used by other device drivers causing them to fail.
