Starting from Gen12 Async Flip is supported on linear buffers. This patch enables support for async on linear buffer. UseCase: In Hybrid graphics, for hardware unsupported pixel formats it will be converted to linear memory and then composed. v2: Added use case v3: Added FIXME for ICL indicating the restrictions Signed-off-by: Arun R Murthy <arun.r.murthy@xxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_display.c | 14 ++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_display.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_display.c index be7cff722196..1880cfe70a7d 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_display.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_display.c @@ -6610,6 +6610,20 @@ static int intel_async_flip_check_hw(struct intel_atomic_state *state, struct in * this selectively if required. */ switch (new_plane_state->hw.fb->modifier) { + case DRM_FORMAT_MOD_LINEAR: + /* + * FIXME: Async on Linear buffer is supported on ICL as + * but with additional alignment and fbc restrictions + * need to be taken care of.
