Re: [PATCH] drm: handle kernel fences in drm_gem_plane_helper_prepare_fb

Hi

Am 21.04.22 um 21:10 schrieb Christian König:
drm_gem_plane_helper_prepare_fb() was using
drm_atomic_set_fence_for_plane() which ignores all implicit fences when an
explicit fence is already set. That's rather unfortunate when the fb still
has a kernel fence we need to wait for to avoid presenting garbage on the
screen.

So instead update the fence in the plane state directly. While at it also
take care of all potential GEM objects and not just the first one.

Also remove the now unused drm_atomic_set_fence_for_plane() function, new
drivers should probably use the atomic helpers directly.

Instead of ARRAY_SIZE, rather use state->fb->format->num_planes. It's the number of planes (i.e., GEM objects) in the framebuffer.

With the use of num_planes in the for loop, there should probably be a drm_WARN_ON_ONCE() around this test.

Or is there a use case for framebuffers with empty planes? At least it's not possible to instantiate one via drm_gem_fb_init_with_funcs().
