Leo (Sunpeng) Li aed7b06e49 drm/amd/display: When enabling CRC, disable dither & enable truncation
When user-mode is using 8bpc, the hardware represents it internally
using a higher bit depth. This causes problems when comparing CRCs for
color managment tests.

We need to disable dithering as well, since it makes CRC values
non-deterministic.

It's easy to see why dithering needs to be disabled, The reason why
truncation also needs to be enabled is better described with an example.
Consider the folowing which tests the color transform matrix (CTM):

Expected CRC = FB_A -> Degamma (Bypassed) -> CTM (Bypassed)
                                                  |
                                                  v
                            Obtain CRC  <- Regamma(Bypassed)

Actual CRC = FB_B -> Degamma (Bypassed) -> CTM (0.5*Identity)
                                                  |
                                                  v
                            Obtain CRC  <- Regamma(Bypassed)

FB_A contains a solid red color at half intensity (127 @ 8bpc)
FB_B contains a solid red color at full intensity (255 @ 8bpc)

We expect that Expected CRC = Actual CRC, but that's not the case. When
the CTM is applied, the output is at half intensity, but also at a
higher bit depth within hardware. i.e. 255/2 = 127.5: not representable
in 8bpc, but can be at 10bpc. This causes the two CRC's to be different.

The solution is to truncate the output bit depth to the same as input
when enabling CRC capture. Since Linux only supports 8bpc, hard code
that for now.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
