I assume yes, but I'm not hooked in to what's happening with minigbm.

+1. We can take this to another thread. The main issue is that minigbm assumes a 1:1 planes to handles paradigm, the new generic handle does not.

Thanks for the info

This allows testing an hwcomposer.minigbm (by just changing some makefile rules and build as separate project) separately from hwcomposer.drm
In order to select hwcomposer.drm+gralloc.gbm vs hwcomposer.minigbm+gralloc.minigbm I use init.sh and a boot cmdline parameter.

When testing drm_hwcomposer+ (chromeos minigbm or intel minigbm) two week ago I was getting SIGABRT no suitable EGL config.

I will repeat tests with cros/gralloc_drm_handle.h handle now supported via platformminigbm on amdgpu (requires patch on minigbm), i965 and nouveau.

Did you see the latest patches from Alistair Strachan to add minigbm as a
supported platform? That might do what you want.

Thanks, they will suffice for now,  however minigbm was now put in diverging track from common libdrm gralloc handle.


If we move to the common handle, my changes can be dropped. That's the goal, it's just not possible right now.

Were those the only specificity introduced in hwc?

Is there documentation on the differences in composition of planes among driver platforms?

Why is amdgpu the only platform (among the ones supporting atomic) for which drm mode setting is not working with hwc, is there some difference in amdgpu drm implementation? [Just a hint, I'll open bug on gitlab]

I'll keep an eye on AOSP minigbm, cros minigbm and intel minigbm to see if/when they'll be updated to use new gralloc handle.
