[PATCH] RFC: drm/drm_plane: Expose the plane capability and interoperability

[PATCH] RFC: drm/drm_plane: Expose the plane capability and interoperability

[Arun R Murthy]

Each plane has its own capability or interoperability based on the
harware restrictions. If this is exposed to the user, then user can read
it once on boot and store this. Later can be used as a lookup table to
check a corresponding capability is supported by plane then only go
ahead with the framebuffer creation/calling atomic_ioctl.

For Ex: There are few restiction as to async flip doesnt support all the
formats/modifiers. Similar restrictions on scaling. With the
availabililty of this info to user, failures in atomic_check can be
avoided as these are more the hardware capabilities.

There are two options on how this can be acheived.
Option 1:

Add a new element to struct drm_mode_get_plane that holds the addr to
the array of a new struct. This new struct consists of the formats
supported and the corresponding plane capabilities.

Option 2:

These can be exposed to user as a plane property so that the user can get to
know the limitation ahead and avoid failures in atomic_check.

Usually atomic_get_property is controlled over the state struct for the
parameters/elements that can change. But here these capabilities or the
interoperabilities are rather hardware restrictions and wont change over
flips. Hence having as a plane_property may not make much sense.
On the other hand, Option 1 include changes in the uapi struct
drm_mode_get_plane. Shouldnt have impact on backward compatibility, but
if userspace has some implementation so as to check the size of the
struct, then it might a challenge.

Adding fields to the struct should be okay, but adding a per-plane immutable 
property is also fine and IMO the cleaner option. We already have the same 
thing with "IN_FORMATS" and "type" that don't ever change either.

Either way, having a capability flag per format+modifier pair sounds good to me 
and should be both easy to make use of in userspace.

Adding new fields to a structure part of an existing UAPI may not be a great idea.
This can have some issues of backward compatibility and multiple structure definitions
with various kernel and user space header versions. So this doesn't look very promising.
Others can chime in and share their perspective.
 
We can expose an immutable plane capability property (with interoperability info) which userspace
can read and based on the capabilities exposed plane the composition. So, option 2 looks more
viable to me.

First of all, the format is underdocumented. Second, there is a usual
requirement for new uAPI: please provide a pointer to IGT patch and to

It should be a MR rather than "some discussion". And IGT patchset too, please.

Regarding the patch itself. It is completely underdocumented. There is
no way for me to understand which of these caps should e.g. be set for
the drm/msm planes.

I have explained it in the patch header. There are certain plane restrictions.
For example, certain pixel formats are not supported in async flip. If this is known to the compositor ahead, then compositor sending a flip with this unsupported formats leads to a flip failure. In order to overcome this if the KMD sends the list of supported pixel formats, compositor can verify for the same and then send the flip request.
This can be achieved in two options. The options are listed below in the patch header and expected some review comments or suggestion as to which option to use!

It is impossible to understand what your options / capabilities
_actually_ mean. I browsed through the patch and I still don't
understand how to select which options apply to DRM_FORMAT_MOD_QCOM_*

Sorry for that let me put it more simple words.
Agenda: KMD should share the plane restrictions i.e capability in terms of what is
supported and what is not to the UMD.
We can see two options of achieving this
Option 1: drm_mode_getplane() -> This function exposes the plane metadata
such as formats. But these are generic formats supported by the plane. There 
can be few restrictions like some formats not supported by async flip, certain
formats not supported in 270/90 deg rotation and so on. These are the hardware
limitations and in order to expose these, this function can be reused. A new 
pointer is added to the existing drm_mode_get_plane struct to share this.
