Since commit 051a6d8d3ca0 ("drm/i915: Move LUT programming to happen after
vblank waits"), I am seeing an ugly colored flash of the first few display
lines on 2 Cherry Trail devices when the gamma table gets set for the first
time. A blue flash on a GPD win and a yellow flash on an Asus T100HA.
The problem is that since this change, the LUT is programmed after the
write *and latching* of the double-buffered register which causes the LUT
to be used starting at the next frame. This means that the old LUT is still
used for the first couple of lines of the display. If no LUT was in use
before then the LUT registers may contain bogus values. This leads to
messed up colors until the new LUT values are written. At least on CHT DSI
panels this causes messed up colors on the first few lines.
This commit fixes this by adding a load_lut_before_commit boolean,
modifying intel_begin_crtc_commit to load the luts earlier if this is set,
and setting this from intel_color_check when a LUT table was not in use
before (and thus may contain bogus values), or when the table size
changes.
The real solution is vblank workers, which I have somewhat implemented
here:
git://github.com/vsyrjala/linux.git vblank_worker_8_kthread
Though even with the qos tricks there we still probably can't quite make
it in time. Essentially we have a bit less than one scanline after start
of vblank to do the work before pixels start to flow through the pipe.
We might be extend that to almost four scanlines but that partocular
thing is documeted as debug feature so not sure we should really use it.
Also I don't think four scanlines is always enough either. So it's still
very much possible that we get the first 100 or so pixels with the old LUT.
Thank you for the info and for the review.

The 'no gamma -> yes gamma' thing I might be willing to accept. The rest
not so much. I was already pondering about such optimizations for the
plane gamma/csc stuff in my vblank branch.
Ok, so I can submit a v2 based on dinq with only the
if (!old_crtc_state->base.gamma_lut && new_crtc_state->base.gamma_lut)
check, or
But for the fastboot case I think what we could do is just sanitize
the LUT(s) after readout if gamma wasn't enabled by the BIOS.
We could do this, but this falls a bit outside of my expertise, I would be
more then happy to test a patch on one of the machines which needs this
LUTS sanitizing though. I get a very visible flash of a couple of bright
blue or yellow (2 different machines) on the upper few lines the first
time the gamma table gets loaded, so verifying that the sanitation kicks
in is easy.

Hans
