[PATCH v2 1/2] drm: Introduce drm_crtc_vblank_prepare()

[sunpeng.li]

From: Leo Li <sunpeng.li@amd.com>

Some drivers need to perform blocking operations prior to enabling
vblank interrupts. A display hardware spin-up from a low-power state
that requires synchronization with the rest of the driver via a mutex,
for example.

To support this, introduce a new drm_crtc_vblank_prepare() helper that
calls back into the driver -- if implemented -- for the driver to do
such preparation work.

In DRM core, call this helper before drm_vblank_get(). Drivers can
choose to call this if they implement the callback in the future.

[PATCH v2 2/2] drm/amd/display: Implement prepare_vblank_enable callback

[sunpeng.li]

From: Leo Li <sunpeng.li@amd.com>

[Why]

APU DCN generations since DCN3.5 have the capability to power down
almost all of the DCN hw block during idle periods. This is referred to
as  IPS -- idle power states. In combination with a panel remote-buffer
feature (like PSR or Panel Replay), IPS can save additional power.

Once DCN is in an IPS, no register access can occur. This includes
control registers for vblank interrupts; IPS must first be exited.

Transitioning in or out of IPS requires synchronization with the rest of
DC, as it powers up or down DCN, and may communicate with other MCUs on
the SOC to do so. This is done via the dc_lock mutex.

While calling enable_vblank, the DRM vblank core holds spinlocks that
prevent blocking operations. Yet acquiring the dc_lock mutex is
blocking. Thus, IPS can not be exited piror to programming vblank
interrupt registers from within enable_vblank. At least not in a
race-free way.

Prior to this change, amdgpu_dm was exiting IPS(*) without holding the
dc_lock, opening the door for races:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/5233

(*) From touching the interrupt registers. All register reads today have
an implicit IPS exit, see dm_read_reg_func()

To solve this, the prepare_vblank_enable callback can be implemented to
exit IPS, as it is called from process context.

[How]

Implement the prepare_vblank_enable callback for amdgpu_dm. In it,
the dc_lock mutex is acquired, and IPS is exited.

v2: Add missing semicolon, add docstring for prepare_vbl_disallow_idle

Have you considered hiding all of this inside drm_vblank.c? Call prepare
in drm_crtc_vblank_get() and a couple of other places? And actually
don't call it on !drm_dev_has_vblank(dev)?

There's just so much littering all over the place with the prepare, and
it seems brittle. Especially when you expect not only the drm core but
also the relevant drivers to call drm_crtc_vblank_prepare() when needed.

There does seem to be a few places in amdgpu that wrap the
drm_crtc_vblank_get() inside dev->event_lock, but is there really any
need to do so? Do the get first, and grab the event_lock after?

Some random comments inline.

...and another initialization.

But really, this function needs to die, and you'll have the crtc without
looking it up [1]. I'd really love to land that first to not make that
*and* this series harder for absolutely no reason.

Do we really need the warning backtraces or debug logs for every call?
There's one driver that needs the call, and it always returns 0. And
there's like a hundred lines of debug logging in this patch.

If you insist, please at least use the [CRTC:%d:%s] style logging, and
make it all somehow consistent.

drm_vblank_get() can get called from any kind of context.
The only workable solution might be the schedule a work from
.vblank_enable() and do whatever is needed from there.

Yeah, drm_vblank_get() can be called from interrupt context, so the sleeping
work has to happen outside of it.

The issue with deferring work from .enable_vblank() is drm_vblank_enable()
follows up immediately with a drm_update_vblank_count(); it expects HW to be
online for reading the vblank counter. Meanwhile, the prepare work can be
pending, and waiting for HW to be online from drm_update_vblank_count() wouldn't
be ideal.

I've thought about implementing a sw vblank counter while HW is waking up, but
that sounds overly complex. It would be simpler to somehow signal prepare work
before we enter non-sleeping context.

Would a function like drm_crtc_get_vblank_with_prepare() help? vblank_prepare()
can be wrapped in it before calling get_vblank(). drm_crtc_get_vblank()
call-sites outside of drm_vblank.c -- called from process context -- can be
replaced with it.

The only case it's not called from process context (within drm core) is in
drm_crtc_vblank_on_config(), which is in drm_vblank.c itself. I think
vblank_prepare() can be open coded there. Drivers can choose to call
get_vblank_with_prepare() if they actually have blocking prepare work.

Thanks,
Leo

Sorry for the delay, just had some time to look at this again.

It seems I missed a place in my last comment about combining prepare() and get()
into one function. drm_vblank_work_schedule() in drm_vblank_work.c calls
vblank_get() with the event_lock, so an option to vblank_prepare() separately is
still needed.

I don't think we actually need to export drm_crtc_vblank_prepare() to drivers.
It's purpose is for DRM to run blocking driver work to prepare for vblank
programming, not the other way around. Drivers can sequence prepare work
themselves, if they need to, before doing any programming.

I think vblank_prepare() can be hidden in drm_internal.h, to limit it's use to
DRM core. I'll spin up a v2 rebased on Jani's series with this and some other
comments addressed.

Thanks,
Leo

I'm OK with dropping these. It may be better for drivers to print warnings
themselves since preparation work is vendor specific.
