Hi Igor,

I'm really happy to see this, thanks!

I still have some security/robustness and other comments below.

I've deleted all the minus lines from the patch to make the new code
more clear.

Why round-up rather than the usual mathematical rounding?

Here you would check that you don't overrun any of the arrays. At this
point, I believe an overrun would indicate a bug in VKMS, so handle it
according to the kernel conventions. I have suggestion further below
how to make that check possible. In other places, I'll just say "check
for overruns" for short.

Is it not *from* each plane?

Each plane... does this mean that all planes must have the same pixel
format?

Oh wait, it's a pointer, so an array, isn't it? You're passing in an
array without passing in the array size. That seems quite risky to me.
Think of someone else needing to patch something here without fully
understanding how this all works, they'd easily introduce a subtle bug.

Looks like the array must be number of "active planes" long. So it's
not even a constant, and the size of the array is not documented here.

What if the fmt_func was a field in struct vkms_frame_info? So you
could set it when creating a vkms_frame_info. Wouldn't that simplify
the code in blend() and its callers?

Mm, you only need to clear output_buffer, not the whole writeback FB.
output_buffer will unconditionally and totally overwrite the writeback
FB, right?

Using "wb" as short for writeback is... well, it's hard for the me
remember at least. Could this not be named simply "writeback"?

Shouldn't this be called y_dst instead?

It took me a while to understand that all these y-coordinates are CRTC
coordinates. Maybe call them crtc_y, crtc_y_begin, crtc_y_end,
crtc_y_height, etc.

This is initializing output_buffer, right? So why do you have the TODO
comment about clearing the primary plane above?

Is it because the primary plane may not cover the CRTC exactly, the
destination rectangle might be bigger or smaller?

The output_buffer length should be the CRTC width, right?

Maybe the special-casing the primary plane in this code is wrong.
crtc_y needs to iterate over the CRTC height starting from zero. Then,
you explicitly clear output_buffer to opaque background color, and
primary plane becomes just another plane in the array of active planes
with no special handling here.

That will allow you to support overlay planes *below* the primary plane
(as is fairly common in non-PC hardware), and you can even support the
background color KMS property.

That's interesting. Looks like you reject everything if any plane is
not fully inside the primary plane destination rectangle. But that's
not the right check, is it? If you want to check this, you would check
against the CRTC dimensions.

Then again, I think some hardware do allow planes to reach outside of
the CRTC dimensions. Cursor plane is probably the best example. The
cursor can be partly off-screen. So this is something that would need
to be supported both ways I suppose, but going with the "all plane
destination rectangles must be strictly inside the CRTC dimensions" is
a good start.

But why only x-coordinate check? y should have the same rules, right?

This needs to be CRTC width, not primary plane width.

In functions like this you should prepare for caller errors. Use a
switch, and fail any attempt to use a pixel format it doesn't support.
Failing is much better than silently producing garbage or worse: buffer
overruns when bytes-per-pixel is not what you expected.

What to do on failure depends on whether the failure here is never
supposed to happen (follow the kernel style) e.g. malicious userspace
cannot trigger it, or if you actually use this function to define the
supported for pixel formats.

The latter means you'd have a list of all DRM pixel formats and then
you'd ask for each one if this function knows it, and if yes, you add
the format to the list of supported formats advertised to userspace. I
don't know if that would be fine by DRM coding style.

I think you could move the above getter functions to the bottom of the
.c file, and make all the four *_to_* functions static, and remove them
from the header.

I'm fairly sure that DRM will one day add exactly ARGB16161616 format.
But that will not be the format you use here (or it might be, but
purely accidentally and depending on machine endianess and whatnot), so
I would suggest inventing a new name. Also use the same name for the
struct to hold a single pixel.

E.g. struct pixel_argb_u16

So that it is clear it is not meant to be any specific DRM_FORMAT_* format.

Please, use consistent function naming style. These are using "convert"

As I mentioned above, this would be called pixel_argb_u16 or something
like that.

I was trying to suggest that a line_buffer would actually hold a whole
line, something like the pseudo code:

struct line_buffer {
	size_t len_pixels;
	struct my_pixel_type pixels[];
}

or whatever the kernel style for a variable length array at the end of
a struct is. Field names are suggestions.

Then it is easy to check that you don't overflow any line_buffer when
operating on them.

You should only need the below functions and not the above ones in this header.

The arguments for this function-pointer should be documented,
especially that y is the y-coordinate in CRTC coordinate space, i.e.
plane destination rectangle. You might even call it crtc_y.

I think you should use two different function-pointer types for the two
different kinds of functions:
- reads arbitrary pixel format and writes to rgba_u16
- reads rgba_u16 and writes to arbitrary pixel format

This will prevent any mistakes in accidentally using the wrong kind of
function. If you also have the argument order different between the two
types of functions, getting them mixed up is even less likely. I
presume the kernel uses the function(destination, source) style of
argument ordering. You can also use 'const' on the source, that is a
good way to document things too.

The consequence of using the wrong function could be the leak of kernel
memory content to userspace, which is pretty bad. So preventing that
kind of problems before they happen is nice.

Good work!
