[PATCH] drm: xlnx: zynqmp_dpsub: Enable plane in atomic update

[PATCH] drm: xlnx: zynqmp_dpsub: Enable plane in atomic update

[Anatoliy Klymenko]

Unconditionally enable the DPSUB layer in the corresponding atomic plane
update callback. Setting the new display mode may require disabling and
re-enabling the CRTC. This effectively resets DPSUB to the default state
with all layers disabled. The original implementation of the plane atomic
update enables the corresponding DPSUB layer only if the framebuffer
format has changed. This would leave the layer disabled after switching to
a different display mode with the same framebuffer format.

Hi Anatoliy,

Thank you for the patch.

Ah, I went through the code and I see that. Oops.

Do we need a Fixes: tag or has this issue been there since the beginning
?

This should be safe for now, as the function will just write the plane
registers with identical values. The waste of CPU cycles may not be a
big issue, even if it would be best to avoid it.

What bothers me more is that we may be working around a larger problem.
Resetting the CRTC when disabling it affects the hardware state of the
whole device, and thus the state of all software DRM objects. The
hardware and software states lose sync. Maybe this patch is all that is
needed for now, but other similar issues could pop up in the future.

Would it be possible, at atomic check time, to detect the objects whose
hardware state will need to be synced, and marked that in their state ?
Then in zynqmp_dpsub_plane_atomic_update() you could re-enable the layer
based on that. You may need to subclass the drm_plane_state if there's
no field in that structure that is suitable to store the information.
The format_changed local variable would move there.

Yes, this was introduced in the initial driver commit.

The CPU time wasted on doubling down layer enablement is neglectable
compared to DP link training time.

I had similar thoughts about proper HW state tracking, but that would be
rather large rework.

Thank you for the idea! I'll check it out.

If it ends up being overkill I think this patch is probably OK. A
comment to explain the reasoning in the code would be nice though.
