[PATCH v2 10/14] drm/solomon: ssd16xx: Expose session management as plane properties
From: Devarsh Thakkar
Date: Sun Sep 27 2026 - 14:28:43 EST
Add DRM plane properties for the clear_on_* and refresh_mode_init
session management flags, allowing userspace to control automatic
display clear/refresh behaviour at lifecycle transitions:
- clear_on_init: clear display when a new DRM master opens
- clear_on_close: clear display when the displaying client exits
- clear_on_disable: clear display when CRTC is disabled
- refresh_mode_init: override refresh mode for the first frame
after a new master opens (e.g. force full refresh to clear
ghosting before normal partial updates)
Each property is an enum with values:
disabled / partial / full / fast
These map to the internal representation (-1 for disabled, 0/1/2 for
partial/full/fast refresh modes respectively).
Defaults are seeded from the panel configuration at probe time and
can be adjusted at runtime via standard DRM property interfaces
(e.g. modetest, drm_info, or compositor property APIs).
