[PATCH v3 0/3] drm: atmel-hlcdc: clut support

From: Peter Rosin
Date: Mon Jun 19 2017 - 03:45:10 EST


Hi!

This series adds support for an 8-bit clut mode in the atmel-hlcdc
driver.

I have now tested patch 1 with the below program (modeset.c
adapted from https://github.com/dvdhrm/docs/tree/master/drm-howto
to use an 8-bit mode).

Since v2 I have also cleared up why the first 16 entries of the clut
was not working right. It was of course my own damn fault, and the
fix was in atmel_hlcdc_layer_write_clut function which called the
...write_reg function which in turn added an extra offset of 16
registers...

Changes since v2:

- Fix mapping to the clut registers.

Changes since v1:

- Move the clut update from atmel_hlcdc_crtc_mode_valid to
atmel_hlcdc_plane_atomic_update.
- Add default .gamma_set helper (drm_atomic_helper_legacy_gamma_set).
- Don't keep a spare copy of the clut, reuse gamma_store instead.
- Don't try to synchronize the legacy fb clut with the drm clut.

As I said in v2, I have not added any .clut_offset to the overlay2
layer of sama5d4, since the chip does not appear to have that layer.
I didn't do that to make it easier to work with the patch previously
sent to remove that layer, but I suspect bad things may happen to
sama5d4 users if they do not have that layer removed.

Cheers,
peda

* As a next step we need to find our available display devices. libdrm provides
* a drmModeRes structure that contains all the needed information. We can
* retrieve it via drmModeGetResources(fd) and free it via
* drmModeFreeResources(res) again.
*
* A physical connector on your graphics card is called a "connector". You can
* plug a monitor into it and control what is displayed. We are definitely
* interested in what connectors are currently used, so we simply iterate
* through the list of connectors and try to display a test-picture on each
* available monitor.
* However, this isn't as easy as it sounds. First, we need to check whether the
* connector is actually used (a monitor is plugged in and turned on). Then we
* need to find a CRTC that can control this connector. CRTCs are described
* later on. After that we create a framebuffer object. If we have all this, we
* can mmap() the framebuffer and draw a test-picture into it. Then we can tell
* the DRM device to show the framebuffer on the given CRTC with the selected
* connector.
*
* As we want to draw moving pictures on the framebuffer, we actually have to
* remember all these settings. Therefore, we create one "struct modeset_dev"
* object for each connector+crtc+framebuffer pair that we successfully
* initialized and push it into the global device-list.
*
* Each field of this structure is described when it is first used. But as a
* summary:
* "struct modeset_dev" contains: {
* - @next: points to the next device in the single-linked list
*
* - @width: width of our buffer object
* - @height: height of our buffer object
* - @stride: stride value of our buffer object
* - @size: size of the memory mapped buffer
* - @handle: a DRM handle to the buffer object that we can draw into
* - @map: pointer to the memory mapped buffer
*
* - @mode: the display mode that we want to use
* - @fb: a framebuffer handle with our buffer object as scanout buffer
* - @conn: the connector ID that we want to use with this buffer
* - @crtc: the crtc ID that we want to use with this connector
* - @saved_crtc: the configuration of the crtc before we changed it. We use it
* so we can restore the same mode when we exit.

* use the first mode that is available. This is always the mode with the
* highest resolution.
* A more sophisticated mode-selection should be done in real applications,

* * Then we need to find an CRTC that can drive this connector. A CRTC is an
* internal resource of each graphics-card. The number of CRTCs controls how
* many connectors can be controlled indepedently. That is, a graphics-cards
* may have more connectors than CRTCs, which means, not all monitors can be
* controlled independently.
* There is actually the possibility to control multiple connectors via a
* single CRTC if the monitors should display the same content. However, we
* do not make use of this here.
* So think of connectors as pipelines to the connected monitors and the
* CRTCs are the controllers that manage which data goes to which pipeline.
* If there are more pipelines than CRTCs, then we cannot control all of
* them at the same time.
* * We need to create a framebuffer for this connector. A framebuffer is a
* memory buffer that we can write XRGB32 data into. So we use this to
* render our graphics and then the CRTC can scan-out this data from the
* framebuffer onto the monitor.

* memory-map via mmap() and every driver supports this. We can use it for
* unaccelerated software rendering on the CPU.
* * We can use libgbm to create buffers available for hardware-acceleration.
* libgbm is an abstraction layer that creates these buffers for each

* provides its own way to create these buffers.
* We can then use such buffers to create OpenGL contexts with the mesa3D
* library.
* We use the first solution here as it is much simpler and doesn't require any
* external libraries. However, if you want to use hardware-acceleration via
* OpenGL, it is actually pretty easy to create such buffers with libgbm and
* libEGL. But this is beyond the scope of this document.
*
* So what we do is requesting a new dumb-buffer from the driver. We specify the
* same size as the current mode that we selected for the connector.

* connect each new framebuffer to each selected connector for each combination
* that we saved in the global modeset_list.
* This is done with a call to drmModeSetCrtc().
*
* So we are ready for our main() function. First we check whether the user
* specified a DRM device on the command line, otherwise we use the default
* /dev/dri/card0. Then we open the device via modeset_open(). modeset_prepare()

* But printing empty black pages is boring so we have another helper function

* As a side note: drmModeSetCrtc() actually takes a list of connectors that we
* want to control with this CRTC. We pass only one connector, though. As
* explained earlier, if we used multiple connectors, then all connectors would
* have the same controlling framebuffer so the output would be cloned. This is
* most often not what you want so we avoid explaining this feature here.
* Furthermore, all connectors will have to run with the same mode, which is
* also often not guaranteed. So instead, we only use one connector per CRTC.
*
* Before calling drmModeSetCrtc() we also save the current CRTC configuration.
* This is used in modeset_cleanup() to restore the CRTC to the same mode as was
* before we changed it.
* If we don't do this, the screen will stay blank after we exit until another

/*
* I hope this was a short but easy overview of the DRM modesetting API. The DRM
* API offers much more capabilities including:
* - double-buffering or tripple-buffering (or whatever you want)
* - vsync'ed page-flips
* - hardware-accelerated rendering (for example via OpenGL)
* - output cloning
* - graphics-clients plus authentication
* - DRM planes/overlays/sprites
* - ...
* If you are interested in these topics, I can currently only redirect you to
* existing implementations, including:
* - plymouth (which uses dumb-buffers like this example; very easy to understand)
* - kmscon (which uses libuterm to do this)
* - wayland (very sophisticated DRM renderer; hard to understand fully as it
* uses more complicated techniques like DRM planes)
* - xserver (very hard to understand as it is split across many files/projects)
*
* But understanding how modesetting (as described in this document) works, is
* essential to understand all further DRM topics.
*
* Any feedback is welcome. Feel free to use this code freely for your own
* documentation or projects.
