This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled drm/atomic-helper: Don't allocate new plane state in CRTC check to the 6.1-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: drm-atomic-helper-don-t-allocate-new-plane-state-in-.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 57ec595387a875d5df007917ca29ed07e578ee88 Author: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@xxxxxxx> Date: Fri Oct 7 14:43:37 2022 +0200 drm/atomic-helper: Don't allocate new plane state in CRTC check [ Upstream commit dbbf933d365da1a76a540211bee3d57bde520194 ] In drm_atomic_helper_check_crtc_state(), do not add a new plane state to the global state if it does not exist already. Adding a new plane state will result in overhead for the plane during the atomic-commit step. For the test in drm_atomic_helper_check_crtc_state() to succeed, it is important that the CRTC has an enabled primary plane after the commit. Simply testing the CRTC state's plane_mask for a primary plane is sufficient. Note that the helper still only tests for an attached primary plane. Drivers have to ensure that the plane contains valid pixel information. v5: * fix commit description (Javier) v3: * test for a primary plane in plane_mask (Ville) v2: * remove unnecessary test for plane->crtc (Ville) * inline drm_atomic_get_next_plane_state() (Ville) * acquire plane lock before accessing plane->state (Ville) Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@xxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javierm@xxxxxxxxxx> Fixes: d6b9af1097fe ("drm/atomic-helper: Add helper drm_atomic_helper_check_crtc_state()") Cc: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@xxxxxxx> Cc: Jocelyn Falempe <jfalempe@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Maarten Lankhorst <maarten.lankhorst@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Maxime Ripard <mripard@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: David Airlie <airlied@xxxxxxxx> Cc: Daniel Vetter <daniel@xxxxxxxx> Cc: dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20221007124338.24152-2-tzimmermann@xxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_atomic_helper.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_atomic_helper.c index 98cc3137c062..02b4a7dc92f5 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_atomic_helper.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_atomic_helper.c @@ -945,7 +945,6 @@ int drm_atomic_helper_check_crtc_state(struct drm_crtc_state *crtc_state, bool can_disable_primary_planes) { struct drm_device *dev = crtc_state->crtc->dev; - struct drm_atomic_state *state = crtc_state->state; if (!crtc_state->enable) return 0; @@ -956,14 +955,7 @@ int drm_atomic_helper_check_crtc_state(struct drm_crtc_state *crtc_state, struct drm_plane *plane; drm_for_each_plane_mask(plane, dev, crtc_state->plane_mask) { - struct drm_plane_state *plane_state; - - if (plane->type != DRM_PLANE_TYPE_PRIMARY) - continue; - plane_state = drm_atomic_get_plane_state(state, plane); - if (IS_ERR(plane_state)) - return PTR_ERR(plane_state); - if (plane_state->fb && plane_state->crtc) { + if (plane->type == DRM_PLANE_TYPE_PRIMARY) { has_primary_plane = true; break; }
