[PATCH 0/3] drm/msm: Further expose UBWC tiling parameters

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



After testing, there are more parameters that we're programming which
affect how UBWC tiles are laid out in memory and therefore affect
the Mesa implementation of VK_EXT_host_image_copy [1], which includes a
CPU implementation of tiling and detiling images. In particular we have:

1. ubwc_mode, which is used to enable level 1 bank swizzling to go back
   to UBWC 1.0 when the implementation supports UBWC 2.0. a610 sets
   this.
2. macrotile_mode, which we previously left as default but according to
   downstream we shouldn't for a680.
3. level2_swizzling_dis, which according to downstream has to be set
   differently for a663.

I want as much as possible to avoid problems from people trying to
upstream Mesa/kernel support not knowing what they're doing and blindly
copying things, so let's make this very explicit that you must set the
correct parameters in the kernel and then make sure that Mesa always
gets the right parameters from the "source of truth" in the kernel by
adding two new UAPI parameters. The Mesa MR has already been updated to
use this if available.

A secondary goal is to make the adreno settings look more like the MDSS
settings, by combining ubwc_mode and level2_swizzling_dis into a single
ubwc_swizzle parameter that matches the MDSS one. This will help with
creating a single source of truth for all drivers later. The UAPI also
matches this, and it makes the Mesa tiling and detiling implementation
simpler/more straightforward.

For more information on what all these parameters mean, see the comments
I've added in the first commit and the giant comment in
src/freedreno/fdl/fd6_tiled_memcpy.c I've added in [1].

Testing of the Mesa MR both with and without this series is appreciated,
there are many different SoCs out there with different UBWC
configurations and I cannot test them all.
