During the Display Next hackfest 2024 one of the topics discussed was the need for compositor to be able to relay intention to drivers that color fidelity or low latency is preferred over power savings. To accomplish this a new optional DRM property is being introduced called "power saving policy". This property is a bit mask that can be configured by the compositor to for it's requirements. When a driver advertises support for this property and the compositor sets requirements then the driver will disable any appplicable power saving features that can compromise the requirements. This set of IGT changes introduces a new subtest that will cover the expected kernel behavior when switching between requirements.
