Subject: [PATCH] drm/komeda: Adds VRR support

Adds a new drm property "vrr" and "vrr_enable" and implemented
the set/get functions, through which userspace could set vfp
data to komeda.

Uh, what exactly are you doing reinventing uapi properties that we already
standardized?

And this seems to not be the first time this happened. Looking at komeda
with a quick git grep on properties you've actually accumulated quite a
pile of such driver properties already. Where's the userspace for this?
Where's the uapi discussions for this stuff? Where's the igt tests for
this (yes a bunch are after we agreed to have testcases for this).

I know that in the past we've been somewhat sloppy properties, but that
was a mistake and we've cranked down on this hard. Probably need to fix
this with a pile of reverts and start over.

Sorry, Will use the mode_config->VRR_ENABLED

we use this private property because we're switching to in-tree, before
finish the switch, we still need to maintain our out-of-tree driver which
depend on a older and doesn't have the VRR_ENABLED property. for avoid
diverging the two branch. my old plan is first switch to in-tree, then drop
the out-of-tree driver and then unify the usage.

Sorry again.

First I'll send some patches to remove these private properties.

and then discuss for how to impelement them.

The current komeda privates are:

crtc:
clock_ratio
slave_planes

plane:
img_enhancement
layer_split

Layer_split: it can be deleted and computed in kernel.

img_enhancement:
it is for image enhancement, can be removed and computed in kernel.
but I'd like to have it, since it's a seperated function (NOT only
for scaling or YUV format), I think only user can real know if need
to enable it.


img_enhancement:

but I'd like to have it, since it's a seperated function (NOT only

to enable it.
I think maybe we can add it CORE as an optional drm_plane property.

clock_ratio:
It's the clock ratio of (main engine lock/output pixel clk) for
komeda HW's downscaling restriction, as below:

D71 downscaling must satisfy the following equation

MCLK h_in * v_in
------- >= ---------------------------------------------
PXLCLK (h_total - (1 + 2 * v_in / v_out)) * v_out

In only horizontal downscaling situation, the right side should be
multiplied by (h_total - 3) / (h_active - 3), then equation becomes

MCLK h_in
------- >= ----------------
PXLCLK (h_active - 3)

slave_planes:
it's not only for the zpos, but most importantly for notify the user
to group the planes to two resource sets (pipeline-0 resources and pipeline1).
Per our HW design the two pipelines can be dynamic assigned to CRTC
according to the usage.
- like user only enable one CRTC which can use all two pipelines
(two resource resource sets)
- but if enabled two CRTCs, only one resource set available for
each CRTC.

komeda user need to known the clock_ratio and slave_planes, but how
to expose them: private_property, sysfs or other ways, seems we need
to disscuss. :)

Let's have a chat about what you're planning here. The upstream VRR
properties aren't a direct match for our HW (which we discussed
before) - so either we need to hide that in the kernel with some frame
timing heuristics, or we shouldn't expose our feature via the existing
properties.

IMO, it's better for Komeda to just allow setting a new CRTC mode to
one with a different VFP (but everything else the same) without a full
modeset.

You could try and implement the upstream VRR properties too - but you
can get the functionality added by this patch without changing any
UAPI.

(Note the only reason we ever added the idea of passing in VFP by
itself is because in ADF, modeset was a separate ioctl entirely, so we
couldn't do it atomically)

I really don't think we should be exposing this. It's purely there to
help improve an image after scaling (effectively, sharpening). It's
not a general purpose "image enhancer". Exposing a property which says
"image enhancement" isn't useful to any application - what kind of
enhancement is it doing?

@Daniel,

These two are a symptom of a fundamental impedance mismatch between
how KMS works and actually making optimal use of HW (or: how Android
works).

HWComposer is expected to have good knowledge of how the underlying HW
operates, so that it can effectively schedule a scene. "TEST_ONLY til
it works" isn't a viable strategy, and it absolutely shouldn't be
needed for a piece of code which has been written _specifically_ to
drive komeda.

It's acknowledged that HW-specific planners may be needed even in
drm-hwcomposer, and those planners are going to need to get told some
stuff about the HW. Whether that info should go through atomic
properties or not is up for debate (adding properties without
following the rules notwithstanding).

What's certain is that debugfs is not workable, because it's not
available in a production Android device (nor should it be).

And of course, there's room for making the information more generic as
far as possible, at which point they might be better candidates for
DRM UAPI.

Thanks,
-Brian

If you want to see an example of how to do changes in the display mode
(like refresh rate, I have no idea what you mean with VFP, just
guessing) look at i915. We clear drm_crtc_state->mode_changed if it's
a mode change we can handle without a full modeset. That gives you
userspace-controlled variable refresh rate.

The VRR properties are for true VRR, i.e. the hw (with or without help
of the kernel) decides how long to make each vblank for every frame
individually, within certain limitats set by the monitor in its EDID
(or for panels maybe in DT).

If you write a specific userspace, you can just hardcode assumptions
about what the kernel/hw can/cannot do. That's essentially what all
the gl drivers do between kernel/userspace: They just know what the
other side expects.

Wrt making this more generically useful as hints: I've shared a patch
series with Liviu about what I think should be done here instead:

https://cgit.freedesktop.org/~danvet/drm/log/?h=for-nashpa

Commit message each have a bunch of thoughts. But fundamentally atomic
is meant to be used together with TEST_ONLY and following hints from
the driver. So if you never want to use TEST_ONLY (it's only needed
for transitions, not for every frame) in your stack, then life is
going to be very painful indeed.

@Brian:

/**
* @vrr_enabled:
*
* Indicates if variable refresh rate should be enabled for the CRTC.
* Support for the requested vrr state will depend on driver and
* hardware capabiltiy - lacking support is not treated as failure.
*/
bool vrr_enabled;

It's not HW specific flag (like AMD freesync), I think can use this standard
flag.

Yes, we can.
But DRM-KMS (the helpers) default doesn't support such light mode-set.
we can not rely on the helpers, but need to implement by ourselves.
Is it worth to do it?

My plan is:

First:
I think the key problem here is not how to enable VRR for our display,
but how to pass the VRR caps from the connector to our display.

And it's not only the VRR prblem but like the command_mode/dual-link
all the none standard connector features that needed by our HW.

Unlike the intel/amd/NV mostly they have their own transmitter HW
(and connector driver), So they can easily pass the info between
connector and display.

But for us that's the third part, and we can not do any assumption to
them, and for us they are the drm_connector, but we can not got these
infos via a drm_connector.

So I think we need a standard way to pass these private infos.

I plan to add a new query function to drm_bridge like

(*query)(u64 query_id, xxx-type return_va);

and query_id is like the modifiers: first 8bit is vendor_id.

when the third part connector integrats to our display, if the
transmitter HW support the features that our display needed, they
can supply this query function to notify the caps support to us.
If the connector doesn't have this query, or query fail we treat
the feature is not support by this connector.

And For this VRR.

User only need to En/Dis VRR, Once komeda received Enable command
- query the connector for VFP range
1. connector doesn't support VRR, ignore or return error ?.
2. got the VFP range, configure the display according the range.

Once the disable received, restore the mode vfp.

Hi Daniel:

I also sent two more patches based on your removal patches:

1. for Disable slave pipeline support
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/315860/
2. Computing layer_split and image_enhancer internally
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/315861/

Can you merge them together with properties removal patches.

Thanks
james
