[RFC PATCH 00/40] drm/amd/display: add AMD driver-specific properties for color mgmt

Hi all,

Joshua Ashton and I (with the great collaboration of Harry Wentland -
thanks) have been working on KMS color pipeline enhancement for Steam
Deck/SteamOS by exposing the large set of color caps available in AMD
display HW.

This patchset results from this full-stack work, including pre-blending
and post-blending new color properties. The first two patches fix
quantization issues on shaper LUT programming. Just after, we have one
patch that adds a config option to restrict AMD colo feature usage. The
following 13 patches implement AMD driver-private color properties
(pending detachment of property counter and plane color_mgmt_changed
from DRM). Finally, the last 24 patches rework the AMD display manager
and color management to support the properties exposed.

In short, for pre-blending, we added the following:
- plane degamma LUT and predefined transfer function;
- plane HDR multiplier
- plane shaper LUT/transfer function;
- plane 3D LUT; and finally,
- plane blend LUT/transfer function, just before blending.

After blending, we already have DRM CRTC degamma/gamma LUTs and CTM,
therefore, we extend CRTC color pipeline with the following:
- CRTC shaper LUT/transfer function;
- CRTC 3D LUT; and
- CRTC gamma transfer function.

You can already find the AMD color capabilities and color management
pipeline documented here:
https://dri.freedesktop.org/docs/drm/gpu/amdgpu/display/display-manager.html#color-management-properties

In previous iterations, we tried to provide a generic solution for
post-blending shaper and 3D LUT [1][2][3], and also Alex Hung worked on
a pre-blending 3D LUT solution[4] extending plane color mgmt proposal
from Uma Shankar [5]. However, we identified during our work [6] that
AMD provides many other valuable capabilities that we don't find in
other vendors, so we started to work on AMD driver-private color
properties that better describe its color pipeline, enabling us to
expose full AMD color capabilities on Deck HW.

Our primary purpose is to avoid usage limitations of color calibration
features provided by HW just because we don't have an interface for
that. At the same time, a generic solution doesn't fit well since some
of these capabilities seem AMD HW specific, such as hardcoded
curve/predefined transfer function and shaper 1D LUTs sandwiching 3D
LUT.

So far, we keep these properties' usage under an AMD display config
option (STEAM_DECK). However, we are fine with having them fully
available to other DCN HW generations. In the current proposal, we are
already checking ASICs before exposing a color feature. We can work on
3D LUT resource acquisition details to fit them to DCN 3+ families that
support them. Indeed, before moving to these config boundaries, we
started working on an open solution for any AMD HW [7].

The userspace case here is Gamescope which is the compositor for
SteamOS. It's already using all of this functionality (although with a
VALVE1_ prefix instead of AMD) to implement its color management
pipeline right now:
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope

We are planning on shipping our color management support with gamut
mapping, HDR, SDR on HDR, HDR on SDR, and much more in Steam OS 3.5. A
brief overview of our color pipeline can be found here:
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope/blob/master/src/docs/Steam%20Deck%20Display%20Pipeline.png

We have also had some other userspace interests from Xaver Hugl (KDE) in
experimenting with these properties for their HDR/color bring-up before
a generic interface is settled on also.

It still needs AMD-specific IGT tests; we are working on documentation
and adding plane CTM support too.

We decided first to share our work to collect thoughts and open for
discussion, even with missing refinements, since driver-private
properties are not the usual DMR/KMS color management approach.

Please, let us know your thoughts.
