[PATCH v9 1/3] drm: Add writeback connector type

From: Liviu Dudau
Date: Thu May 24 2018 - 11:49:35 EST

From: Brian Starkey <brian.starkey@xxxxxxx>

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, and a WRITEBACK_PIXEL_FORMATS blob used to expose the
supported writeback formats to userspace.

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. WRITEBACK_FB_ID can only be set if the connector is
attached to a CRTC.

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

Changes since v2:
Daniel Vetter:
- Subclass drm_connector to drm_writeback_connector
- Relax check to allow CRTC to be set without an FB
- Add some writeback_ prefixes
- Drop PIXEL_FORMATS_SIZE property, as it was unnecessary
Gustavo Padovan:
- Add drm_writeback_job to handle writeback signalling centrally

Changes since v3:
- Rebased
- Rename PIXEL_FORMATS -> WRITEBACK_PIXEL_FORMATS

Chances since v4:
- Embed a drm_encoder inside the drm_writeback_connector to
reduce the amount of boilerplate code required from the drivers
that are using it.

Changes since v5:
- Added Rob Clark's atomic_commit() vfunc to connector helper
funcs, so that writeback jobs are commited from atomic helpers
- Updated create_writeback_properties() signature to return an
error code rather than a boolean false for failure.
- Free writeback job with the connector state rather than when
doing the cleanup_work()

Changes since v7:
- fix extraneous use of out_fence that is only introduced in a
subsequent patch.

Changes since v8:
- whitespace changes pull from subsequent patch

+ * 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.
+ *
+ * A framebuffer may only be attached to a writeback connector when the
+ * connector is attached to a CRTC. The WRITEBACK_FB_ID property which sets the
+ * framebuffer applies only to a single commit (see below). A framebuffer may
+ * not be attached while the CRTC is off.
+ *
+ * Writeback connectors have some 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.
+ *
+ * "WRITEBACK_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.
