[PATCH v7 00/18] R-Car DU display writeback support

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

 



Hello everybody,

This is the latest and greatest version of the patch series that
implements display writeback support for the R-Car Gen3 platforms in the
VSP1 and DU drivers. All patches have been reviewed, all comments
incorporated, and the result rebased on top ov v5.1-rc1.

Patches 01/18 to 11/18 prepare the VSP1 driver for writeback support
with all the necessary plumbing, including extensions of the API between
the VSP1 and DU drivers.

The most significant change compared to v6 is the rebase on top of
v5.1-rc1. This was done to ease merging, as the VSP and DU parts would
normally go through different trees. I usually ask Mauro or Dave their
permission to merge the whole series through a single tree, and doing
the same this time I would select the DRM tree given that I hope to get
more DU patches merged in this development cycle. There is no foreseen
conflicting patch for the VSP in v5.2, but if a need arises, I will
them on top of the 11 first patches of this series and send a pull
request to Mauro to avoid conflicts.

Mauro, I plan to send a pull request to Dave by the end of this week, so
if you'd like to have a look at the VSP patches, now would be a good
time :-) It's only driver changes, and they have been reviewed already,
so I don't expect any problem.

Compared to v5 the major change is the usage of chained display lists in
the VSP to disable writeback after one frame, instead of patching the
active display list in memory. This should solve the potential DMA to
released buffer issue that could occur when the frame start interrupt
was delayed after frame end. Patch 06/18 and 07/18 are new in this
version to support usage of chained display pipelines.

Compared to v4 the major change is the move from V4L2 to DRM writeback
connectors for the userspace API. This has caused a few issues with
writeback support to be uncovered, and they are addressed by patches
12/18 to 14/18.

Patches 15/18 to 17/18 then perform refactoring of the DU driver, to
finally add writeback support in patch 18/18.

The writeback pixel format is restricted to RGB, due to the VSP1
outputting RGB to the display and lacking a separate colour space
conversion unit for writeback. The writeback framebuffer size must match
the active mode, writeback scaling is not supported by the hardware.

Writeback requests being part of atomic commits, they're queued to the
hardware when they are received, become active at the next vblank, and
complete on the following vblank. The display list chaining mechanism
ensures that writeback will be enabled for a single frame only, unless
the next atomic commit contains a separate writeback request.
