Subject: [PATCH v3 08/14] drm/solomon: ssd16xx: Expose refresh mode as plane property
Date: Tue, 20 Oct 2026 03:07:20 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261019213726.4145532-9-devarsht@ti.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261019213726.4145532-1-devarsht@ti.com>
Add a DRM plane property "refresh_mode" allowing userspace to
select between partial, full and fast display update modes at runtime.
E-paper displays support multiple refresh strategies with different
tradeoffs:
- partial: fastest updates (~300-500ms), minimal flicker, ghosting
accumulates over time
- full: cleanest image (~1.5-2s), full black-white cycle eliminates
ghosting, most flicker
- fast: intermediate (~1s), skips LUT reload per frame (loaded once
at init)
The property uses an enum with values matching the internal
ssd16xx_refresh_mode enum. The default is set from the panel
configuration (typically "partial" for interactive use).

Changes in v3:
- Use kzalloc_obj() and fix formatting, no functional changes
