[PATCH v3 4/9] PCI/VGA: Improve the default VGA device selection

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

 



From: Sui Jingfeng <suijingfeng@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Currently, the strategy of selecting the default boot on a multiple video
card coexistence system is not perfect. Potential problems are:

1) This function is a no-op on non-x86 architectures.
2) It does not take the PCI Bar may get relocated into consideration.
3) It is not effective for the PCI device without a dedicated VRAM Bar.
4) It is device-agnostic, thus it has to waste the effort to iterate all
   of the PCI Bar to find the VRAM aperture.
5) It has invented lots of methods to determine which one is the default
   boot device, but this is still a policy because it doesn't give the
   user a choice to override.

With the observation that device drivers may have better knowledge about
which PCI bar contains the firmware FB. This patch tries to solve the above
problems by introducing a function callback to the vga_client_register()
function interface. DRM device drivers for the PCI device could provide
a xx_vga_is_primary_gpu() function callback during the driver loading time.
Once the driver binds the device successfully, VRAARB will call back to
the driver. This gives the device drivers a chance to provide accurate
boot device identification. Which in turn unlock the abitration service
to non-x86 architectures. A device driver can also just pass a NULL pointer
to keep the original behavior.

This patch is intended to introducing the mechanism only, the specific
implementation is left to the authors of various device driver. Also honor
the comment: "Clients have *TWO* callback mechanisms they can use"
