[PATCH V5 2/2] drm/vkms: Add support for virtual hardware mode

From: Sumera Priyadarsini
Date: Sun Aug 01 2021 - 12:05:05 EST


Add a virtual hardware or vblank-less mode as a module
to enable VKMS to emulate virtual hardware drivers. This means
no vertical blanking events occur and pageflips are completed
arbitrarily and when required for updating the frame.

Add a new drm_crtc_helper_funcs struct,
vkms_virtual_crtc_helper_funcs() which holds the atomic helpers
for virtual hardware mode. Rename the existing
vkms_crtc_helper_funcs struct to vkms_vblank_crtc_helper_funcs
which holds atomic helpers for the vblank mode.
This makes the code flow clearer and testing
virtual hardware mode.

Add a function vkms_crtc_composer() which calls the helper function,
vkms_composer_common() for plane composition in vblank-less mode.
vkms_crtc_composer() is directly called in the atomic hook in
vkms_crtc_atomic_begin().

However, some crc captures still use vblanks which causes the crc-based
igt tests to crash. Currently, I am unsure about how to approach the
one-shot implementation of crc reads so I am still working on that.

This patchset has been tested with the igt tests- kms_writeback, kms_atomic
, kms_lease, kms_flip, kms_pipe_get_crc and preserves results except for
subtests related to crc reads and skips tests that rely on vertical
blanking.

The patch is based on Rodrigo Siqueira's
patch(https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/316851/?series=48469&rev=3)
and the ensuing review.

Changes in V5:
- Move vkms_crtc_composer() to this patch(Melissa)
- Add more clarification for "vblank-less" mode(Pekka)
- Replace kzalloc() with kvmalloc() in compose_active_planes()
to fix memory allocation error for output frame
- Fix checkpatch warnings (Melissa)
Changes in V3:
- Refactor patchset(Melissa)
Changes in V2:
- Add atomic helper functions in a separate struct for virtual hardware
mode (Daniel)
- Remove spinlock across 'vkms_output->lock' in vkms_crtc.c(Daniel)
- Add vkms_composer_common() (Daniel)
