Remove dpu_hw_fmt_layout instance from struct dpu_hw_pipe_cfg, leaving

of them.


Sorry for not responding to this comment earlier.

  From the perspective of wide planes you are right that the layout is
common but not true from smart DMA point of view.

For wide planes, yes, its usually the same buffer with just the src_x
being different but conceptually and even HW wise each rectangle of the
smart DMA is capable of fetching from a different buffer.

  From the pov, this decision of not having the dpu_hw_fmt_layout as part
of dpu_hw_pipe_cfg seems incorrect to me.

Yes, each rectangle/pipe can fetch from a different buffer. However in
our use case the layout is not defined for each pipe. It is defined
for a plane, no matter how many pipes are used for the plane, since
the buffer is also defined per plane.

Even if the layout is defined per plane.

So lets say

plane A with layout A maps to rect 1 of DMA0
plane B with layout B maps to rect 2 of DMA0

How can layout be assumed to be duplicated in this case?

This is not a wide plane use-case but just smartDMA case of two different layers.

Maybe I am missing something but this is the example i am interested about.

PlaneA has layoutA. So dpu_plane_sspp_update_pipe() will program layoutA using (DMA0, rect1)->setup_sourceaddress(layoutA).

PlaneB has layoutB, so (DMA0, rect2)->setup_sourceaddress(layoutB).

Maybe the commit message is misleading. The layout is not common to rect1 and rect2. It is common to all pipes/rectangles driving a single plane.


Ack, Its clear now.

I have rephrased the last sentence of the commit message in the following way. Hopefully it will be cleaner now:

This way all the pipes used by the plane
will have a common layout instance (as the framebuffer is shared between
them), while still keeping a separate src/dst rectangle configuration
for each pipe.


Ack, thanks.
