[PATCH v4 0/9] Add method to describe tile/bit_level_packed formats

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Changes since v3:
  - added an utility function that computes the minimum pitch.
  - switched drm_format_info to in-line member documentation.
  - Cleanup/Improved the kernel doc.
  - Added selftests for: drm_format_info* helpers.

There has been some discussion about extending drm core to handle
linear tile formats, in the series sent by me here [1] and how to
handle formats that are intended to be used just with
modifiers(particularly AFBC modifiers) on Brian series [2] and on IRC
here [3] and [4].

Hence, this big-merged series:

Patch 1: Just a preparation patch that converts the drm_format_info
kerneldoc to in-line documentation.

Patches 2-4: handle tiled formats both in core and in malidp driver,
this is done by extending drm_format_info with three new fields
char_per_block, block_w, block_h and consistently handle in the generic
code paths, both linear tiled formats and normal formats.
What's different from [1] is the interpretation of pitch for tile
formats which has been kept to be the same as for the other formats:
pitch = average_chars_per_pixel * width.

Patches 5-7: Introduce the YUV AFBC formats, the only thing noteworthy
here is that cpp/char_per_block are set to 0 for formats where it's
mandatory to be used together with a non-linear modifier and then that
is used to bypass pitch check in framebuffer_check for formats that
have cpp/char_per_block set to 0.

Patches 8-9: A small fix for test-drm-helper module and adds self
tests for drm_format_info* helpers. For the other touched functions we
need a bit more infrastructure to be able to unittest/selftest them,
since they need a stub drm_device and drm_file.

As a side note, igt master branch doesn't seem to be using
test-drm-helper.ko, so I just tested by loading/unloading the module
manually.
