It all looks like relevant information (yes other subsystems insist the patch changelog is outside of the commit message, ime more is lost information than gained in clarity with that). > > drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig | 16 ++++ > drivers/gpu/drm/drm_self_refresh_helper.c | 98 +++++++++++++++++++---- > 2 files changed, 100 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig b/drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig > index 381476b10a9d..698924ed9b6b 100644 > --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig > +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig > @@ -84,6 +84,22 @@ config DRM_INPUT_HELPER > depends on DRM_KMS_HELPER > depends on INPUT > > +config DRM_SELF_REFRESH_INPUT_BOOST_DEFAULT > + bool "Preemptively exit panel self-refresh on input device activity" if EXPERT > + default y > + depends on DRM_INPUT_HELPER Yeah no that doesn't work. First I really don't like tunables, and second much less as Kconfig. The driver should know this somehow and set it correctly.

> + > + schedule_work(&sr_data->exit_work); Single worker with single state would also make it clear that we need to cancel the sr enter work here (or delay it at least), otherwise this wont' do much good when you try to exit right before we try to enter sr. Also, exiting sr means a full atomic flip, so full frame upload generally, and that can take its sweet time. Won't that increase input -> output latency because we're guaranteed to miss a frame (at least on some hardware). How does this work? This might also tie into the "how to correctly tune this" question. > +} > /** > * drm_self_refresh_helper_init - Initializes self refresh helpers for a crtc > * @crtc: the crtc which supports self refresh supported displays > @@ -232,6 +283,7 @@ EXPORT_SYMBOL(drm_self_refresh_helper_alter_state); > int drm_self_refresh_helper_init(struct drm_crtc *crtc) > { > struct drm_self_refresh_data *sr_data = crtc->self_refresh_data; > + int ret; > > /* Helper is already initialized */ > if (WARN_ON(sr_data)) > @@ -243,6 +295,7 @@ int drm_self_refresh_helper_init(struct drm_crtc *crtc) > > INIT_DELAYED_WORK(&sr_data->entry_work, > drm_self_refresh_helper_entry_work); > + INIT_WORK(&sr_data->exit_work, drm_self_refresh_helper_exit_work); Won't this result in all kinds of awkward synchronization issues when the two workers run in parallel?
