Writeback connectors represent writeback engines which can write the
CRTC output to a memory framebuffer. Add a writeback connector type and
related support functions.
Drivers should initialize a writeback connector with
drm_writeback_connector_init() which takes care of setting up all the
writeback-specific details on top of the normal functionality of
drm_connector_init().
Writeback connectors have a WRITEBACK_FB_ID property, used to set the
output framebuffer, PIXEL_FORMATS and PIXEL_FORMATS_SIZE used to expose
the supported writeback formats to userspace.
The drm_atomic core takes care of enforcing fairly strict semantics on
the use of writeback connectors. In short, a writeback connector can
only be included in a commit if it has both a framebuffer and a CRTC.
Conversely, you may not attach a framebuffer if the connector is not
attached to a CRTC, or if the CRTC is disabled.
When a framebuffer is attached to a writeback connector with the
WRITEBACK_FB_ID property, it is used only once (for the commit in which
it was included), and userspace can never read back the value of
WRITEBACK_FB_ID.
Changes since v1:
- Added drm_writeback.c + documentation
- Added helper to initialize writeback connector in one go
- Added core checks
- Squashed into a single commit
- Dropped the client cap
- Writeback framebuffers are no longer persistent
Signed-off-by: Brian Starkey <brian.starkey@xxxxxxx>
I think this is looking pretty good. Bunch of nitpicks below, but
otherwise I think we just need the userspace for this, plus an ack from
other people interested in this, and it's good to get merged.

+/**
+ * DOC: overview
+ *
+ * Writeback connectors are used to expose hardware which can write the output
+ * from a CRTC to a memory buffer. They are used and act similarly to other
+ * types of connectors, with some important differences:
+ * - Writeback connectors don't provide a way to output visually to the user.
+ * - Writeback connectors should always report as "disconnected" (so that
+ * clients which don't understand them will ignore them).
+ * - Writeback connectors don't have EDID.
+ *
+ * Writeback connectors may only be attached to a CRTC when they have a
+ * framebuffer attached, and may only have a framebuffer attached when they are
+ * attached to a CRTC. The WRITEBACK_FB_ID property which sets the framebuffer
+ * applies only to a single commit (see below), which means that each and every
+ * commit which makes use of a writeback connector must set both its CRTC_ID and
+ * WRITEBACK_FB_ID. It also means that the connector's CRTC_ID must be
+ * explicitly cleared in order to make a subsequent commit which doesn't use
+ * writeback.
Hm, this is a bit an ugly fallout from our safety checks, but I guess it's
a reasonable requirement for userspace. Writeback is kinda special. Or
should we make the ->crtc pointer one-shot too? Of course only for
writeback pointers. I think that would make is simpler to use in libraries
like igt.
+ *
+ * Writeback connectors have several additional properties, which userspace
+ * can use to query and control them:
+ *
+ * "WRITEBACK_FB_ID":
+ * Write-only object property storing a DRM_MODE_OBJECT_FB: it stores the
+ * framebuffer to be written by the writeback connector. This property is
+ * similar to the FB_ID property on planes, but will always read as zero
+ * and is not preserved across commits.
+ * Userspace must set this property to an output buffer every time it
+ * wishes the buffer to get filled.
+ *
+ * "PIXEL_FORMATS":
+ * Immutable blob property to store the supported pixel formats table. The
+ * data is an array of u32 DRM_FORMAT_* fourcc values.
+ * Userspace can use this blob to find out what pixel formats are supported
+ * by the connector's writeback engine.
+ *
+ * "PIXEL_FORMATS_SIZE":
+ * Immutable unsigned range property storing the number of entries in the
+ * PIXEL_FORMATS array.
Blob properties already have a size, you don't need to specify it.
Gamma tables have a size since they start out with a default of NULL, so
userspace has no idea what the size should be.
Docs are missing to clarify when the writeout is complete. Should we wait
with merging this until out fences are supported, or should we add a bit
of placeholder text here that the writeback will be completed 1 vblank
after this atomic commit was committed? I'm leaning towards including the
writeout out fences from the start.
