[PATCH V6 2/2] drm/vkms: Add support for virtual hardware mode

From: Sumera Priyadarsini
Date: Wed Sep 01 2021 - 12:44:10 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_funcs struct, vkms_vblankless_crtc_funcs and a
drm_crtc_helper_funcs struct, vkms_vblankless_crtc_helper_funcs()
which hold the atomic helpers for virtual hardware mode.
The existing vkms_crtc_funcs struct and vkms_crtc_helper_funcs
struct hold atomic helpers for the default vblank mode.
This makes the code flow clearer and testing
virtual hardware mode easier.

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. So, no CRC functions are called in vblankless mode
for now and will be implemented in a later patch.

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 vertical blanking, in which case,
tests are skipped.

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