drm/doc: Put all driver docs into a separate chapter We have quite a few driver docs now, which is great, but having them all in the top-level gpu documentation chapter makes it harder to spot the core/shared bits.

drm/amd/display: Initial documentation for AMDgpu DC [Why] Documentation is helpful for the community to understand our code. This change does some high-level documentation of some DM interfaces with DRM, and the amdgpu base driver. [How] An entry for AMDgpu DC has been added to Documentation/gpu/drivers.rst TOC. amdgpu-dc.rst is created to pull in inline doc-strings, which: - Provides an overview for "What is DM?" - Documents AMDgpu DM lifecyle - Documents IRQ management - Documents atomic_check and commit_tail interfaces Signed-off-by: Leo Li <sunpeng.li@amd.com> Reviewed-by: David Francis <David.Francis@amd.com> Acked-by: Leo Li <sunpeng.li@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Alex Deucher <alexander.deucher@amd.com> 2018-09-14 22:20:08 +07:00			`amdgpu-dc`

drm/v3d: Introduce a new DRM driver for Broadcom V3D V3.x+ This driver will be used to support Mesa on the Broadcom 7268 and 7278 platforms. V3D 3.3 introduces an MMU, which means we no longer need CMA or vc4's complicated CL/shader validation scheme. This massively changes the GEM behavior, so I've forked off to a new driver. v2: Mark SUBMIT_CL as needing DRM_AUTH. coccinelle fixes from kbuild test robot. Drop personal git link from MAINTAINERS. Don't double-map dma-buf imported BOs. Add kerneldoc about needing MMU eviction. Drop prime vmap/unmap stubs. Delay mmap offset setup to mmap time. Use drm_dev_init instead of _alloc. Use ktime_get() for wait_bo timeouts. Drop drm_can_sleep() usage, since we don't modeset. Switch page tables back to WC (debug change to coherent had slipped in). Switch drm_gem_object_unreference_unlocked() to drm_gem_object_put_unlocked(). Simplify overflow mem handling by not sharing overflow mem between jobs. v3: no changes v4: align submit_cl to 64 bits (review by airlied), check zero flags in other ioctls.

drm/xen-front: Add support for Xen PV display frontend Add support for Xen para-virtualized frontend display driver. Accompanying backend [1] is implemented as a user-space application and its helper library [2], capable of running as a Weston client or DRM master. Configuration of both backend and frontend is done via Xen guest domain configuration options [3]. Driver limitations: 1. Only primary plane without additional properties is supported. 2. Only one video mode supported which resolution is configured via XenStore. 3. All CRTCs operate at fixed frequency of 60Hz. 1. Implement Xen bus state machine for the frontend driver according to the state diagram and recovery flow from display para-virtualized protocol: xen/interface/io/displif.h. 2. Read configuration values from Xen store according to xen/interface/io/displif.h protocol: - read connector(s) configuration - read buffer allocation mode (backend/frontend) 3. Handle Xen event channels: - create for all configured connectors and publish corresponding ring references and event channels in Xen store, so backend can connect - implement event channels interrupt handlers - create and destroy event channels with respect to Xen bus state 4. Implement shared buffer handling according to the para-virtualized display device protocol at xen/interface/io/displif.h: - handle page directories according to displif protocol: - allocate and share page directories - grant references to the required set of pages for the page directory - allocate xen balllooned pages via Xen balloon driver with alloc_xenballooned_pages/free_xenballooned_pages - grant references to the required set of pages for the shared buffer itself - implement pages map/unmap for the buffers allocated by the backend (gnttab_map_refs/gnttab_unmap_refs) 5. Implement kernel modesetiing/connector handling using DRM simple KMS helper pipeline: - implement KMS part of the driver with the help of DRM simple pipepline helper which is possible due to the fact that the para-virtualized driver only supports a single (primary) plane: - initialize connectors according to XenStore configuration - handle frame done events from the backend - create and destroy frame buffers and propagate those to the backend - propagate set/reset mode configuration to the backend on display enable/disable callbacks - send page flip request to the backend and implement logic for reporting backend IO errors on prepare fb callback - implement virtual connector handling: - support only pixel formats suitable for single plane modes - make sure the connector is always connected - support a single video mode as per para-virtualized driver configuration 6. Implement GEM handling depending on driver mode of operation: depending on the requirements for the para-virtualized environment, namely requirements dictated by the accompanying DRM/(v)GPU drivers running in both host and guest environments, number of operating modes of para-virtualized display driver are supported: - display buffers can be allocated by either frontend driver or backend - display buffers can be allocated to be contiguous in memory or not Note! Frontend driver itself has no dependency on contiguous memory for its operation. 6.1. Buffers allocated by the frontend driver. The below modes of operation are configured at compile-time via frontend driver's kernel configuration. 6.1.1. Front driver configured to use GEM CMA helpers This use-case is useful when used with accompanying DRM/vGPU driver in guest domain which was designed to only work with contiguous buffers, e.g. DRM driver based on GEM CMA helpers: such drivers can only import contiguous PRIME buffers, thus requiring frontend driver to provide such. In order to implement this mode of operation para-virtualized frontend driver can be configured to use GEM CMA helpers. 6.1.2. Front driver doesn't use GEM CMA If accompanying drivers can cope with non-contiguous memory then, to lower pressure on CMA subsystem of the kernel, driver can allocate buffers from system memory. Note! If used with accompanying DRM/(v)GPU drivers this mode of operation may require IOMMU support on the platform, so accompanying DRM/vGPU hardware can still reach display buffer memory while importing PRIME buffers from the frontend driver. 6.2. Buffers allocated by the backend This mode of operation is run-time configured via guest domain configuration through XenStore entries. For systems which do not provide IOMMU support, but having specific requirements for display buffers it is possible to allocate such buffers at backend side and share those with the frontend. For example, if host domain is 1:1 mapped and has DRM/GPU hardware expecting physically contiguous memory, this allows implementing zero-copying use-cases. Note, while using this scenario the following should be considered: a) If guest domain dies then pages/grants received from the backend cannot be claimed back b) Misbehaving guest may send too many requests to the backend exhausting its grant references and memory (consider this from security POV). Note! Configuration options 1.1 (contiguous display buffers) and 2 (backend allocated buffers) are not supported at the same time. 7. Handle communication with the backend: - send requests and wait for the responses according to the displif protocol - serialize access to the communication channel - time-out used for backend communication is set to 3000 ms - manage display buffers shared with the backend [1] https://github.com/xen-troops/displ_be [2] https://github.com/xen-troops/libxenbe [3] https://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=xen.git;a=blob;f=docs/man/xl.cfg.pod.5.in;h=a699367779e2ae1212ff8f638eff0206ec1a1cc9;hb=refs/heads/master#l1257 Signed-off-by: Oleksandr Andrushchenko <oleksandr_andrushchenko@epam.com> Reviewed-by: Boris Ostrovsky <boris.ostrovsky@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20180403112317.28751-2-andr2000@gmail.com 2018-04-03 18:23:17 +07:00			`xen-front`
