Kernel Mode Setting (KMS)
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
Drivers must initialize the mode setting core by calling
|
|
drmm_mode_config_init() on the DRM device. The function
|
|
initializes the :c:type:`struct drm_device <drm_device>`
|
|
mode_config field and never fails. Once done, mode configuration must
|
|
be setup by initializing the following fields.
|
|
|
|
- int min_width, min_height; int max_width, max_height;
|
|
Minimum and maximum width and height of the frame buffers in pixel
|
|
units.
|
|
|
|
- struct drm_mode_config_funcs \*funcs;
|
|
Mode setting functions.

The basic object structure KMS presents to userspace is fairly simple.
|
|
Framebuffers (represented by :c:type:`struct drm_framebuffer <drm_framebuffer>`,
|
|
see `Frame Buffer Abstraction`_) feed into planes. Planes are represented by
|
|
:c:type:`struct drm_plane <drm_plane>`, see `Plane Abstraction`_ for more
|
|
details. One or more (or even no) planes feed their pixel data into a CRTC
|
|
(represented by :c:type:`struct drm_crtc <drm_crtc>`, see `CRTC Abstraction`_)
|
|
for blending. The precise blending step is explained in more detail in `Plane
|
|
Composition Properties`_ and related chapters.
|
|
|
|
For the output routing the first step is encoders (represented by
|
|
:c:type:`struct drm_encoder <drm_encoder>`, see `Encoder Abstraction`_). Those
|
|
are really just internal artifacts of the helper libraries used to implement KMS
|
|
drivers. Besides that they make it unecessarily more complicated for userspace
|
|
to figure out which connections between a CRTC and a connector are possible, and
|
|
what kind of cloning is supported, they serve no purpose in the userspace API.
|
|
Unfortunately encoders have been exposed to userspace, hence can't remove them
|
|
at this point. Futhermore the exposed restrictions are often wrongly set by
|
|
drivers, and in many cases not powerful enough to express the real restrictions.
|
|
A CRTC can be connected to multiple encoders, and for an active CRTC there must
|
|
be at least one encoder.
|
|
|
|
The final, and real, endpoint in the display chain is the connector (represented
|
|
by :c:type:`struct drm_connector <drm_connector>`, see `Connector
|
|
Abstraction`_). Connectors can have different possible encoders, but the kernel
|
|
driver selects which encoder to use for each connector. The use case is DVI,
|
|
which could switch between an analog and a digital encoder. Encoders can also
|
|
drive multiple different connectors. There is exactly one active connector for
|
|
every active encoder.
|
|
|
|
Internally the output pipeline is a bit more complex and matches today's
|
|
hardware more closely:

|
|
|
|
"drm_panel"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Internally two additional helper objects come into play. First, to be able to
|
|
share code for encoders (sometimes on the same SoC, sometimes off-chip) one or
|
|
more :ref:`drm_bridges` (represented by :c:type:`struct drm_bridge
|
|
<drm_bridge>`) can be linked to an encoder. This link is static and cannot be
|
|
changed, which means the cross-bar (if there is any) needs to be mapped between
|
|
the CRTC and any encoders. Often for drivers with bridges there's no code left
|
|
at the encoder level. Atomic drivers can leave out all the encoder callbacks to
|
|
essentially only leave a dummy routing object behind, which is needed for
|
|
backwards compatibility since encoders are exposed to userspace.
|
|
|
|
The second object is for panels, represented by :c:type:`struct drm_panel
|
|
<drm_panel>`, see :ref:`drm_panel_helper`. Panels do not have a fixed binding
|
|
point, but are generally linked to the driver private structure that embeds
|
|
:c:type:`struct drm_connector <drm_connector>`.
|
|
|
|
Note that currently the bridge chaining and interactions with connectors and
|
|
panels are still in-flux and not really fully sorted out yet.

The base structure for all KMS objects is :c:type:`struct drm_mode_object
|
|
<drm_mode_object>`. One of the base services it provides is tracking properties,
|
|
which are especially important for the atomic IOCTL (see `Atomic Mode
|
|
Setting`_). The somewhat surprising part here is that properties are not
|
|
directly instantiated on each object, but free-standing mode objects themselves,
|
|
represented by :c:type:`struct drm_property <drm_property>`, which only specify
|
|
the type and value range of a property. Any given property can be attached
|
|
multiple times to different objects using drm_object_attach_property().

|
|
|
|
Atomic provides transactional modeset (including planes) updates, but a
|
|
bit differently from the usual transactional approach of try-commit and
|
|
rollback:
|
|
|
|
- Firstly, no hardware changes are allowed when the commit would fail. This
|
|
allows us to implement the DRM_MODE_ATOMIC_TEST_ONLY mode, which allows
|
|
userspace to explore whether certain configurations would work or not.
|
|
|
|
- This would still allow setting and rollback of just the software state,
|
|
simplifying conversion of existing drivers. But auditing drivers for
|
|
correctness of the atomic_check code becomes really hard with that: Rolling
|
|
back changes in data structures all over the place is hard to get right.
|
|
|
|
- Lastly, for backwards compatibility and to support all use-cases, atomic
|
|
updates need to be incremental and be able to execute in parallel. Hardware
|
|
doesn't always allow it, but where possible plane updates on different CRTCs
|
|
should not interfere, and not get stalled due to output routing changing on
|
|
different CRTCs.
|
|
|
|
Taken all together there's two consequences for the atomic design:
|
|
|
|
- The overall state is split up into per-object state structures:
|
|
:c:type:`struct drm_plane_state <drm_plane_state>` for planes, :c:type:`struct
|
|
drm_crtc_state <drm_crtc_state>` for CRTCs and :c:type:`struct
|
|
drm_connector_state <drm_connector_state>` for connectors. These are the only
|
|
objects with userspace-visible and settable state. For internal state drivers
|
|
can subclass these structures through embeddeding, or add entirely new state
|
|
structures for their globally shared hardware functions, see :c:type:`struct
|
|
drm_private_state<drm_private_state>`.
|
|
|
|
- An atomic update is assembled and validated as an entirely free-standing pile
|
|
of structures within the :c:type:`drm_atomic_state <drm_atomic_state>`
|
|
container. Driver private state structures are also tracked in the same
|
|
structure; see the next chapter. Only when a state is committed is it applied
|
|
to the driver and modeset objects. This way rolling back an update boils down
|
|
to releasing memory and unreferencing objects like framebuffers.
|
|
|
|
Locking of atomic state structures is internally using :c:type:`struct
|
|
drm_modeset_lock <drm_modeset_lock>`. As a general rule the locking shouldn't be
|
|
exposed to drivers, instead the right locks should be automatically acquired by
|
|
any function that duplicates or peeks into a state, like e.g.
|
|
drm_atomic_get_crtc_state(). Locking only protects the software data
|
|
structure, ordering of committing state changes to hardware is sequenced using
|
|
:c:type:`struct drm_crtc_commit <drm_crtc_commit>`.
|
|
|
|
Read on in this chapter, and also in :ref:`drm_atomic_helper` for more detailed
|
|
coverage of specific topics.

KMS Properties
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
This section of the documentation is primarily aimed at user-space developers.
|
|
For the driver APIs, see the other sections.
|
|
|
|
Requirements
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
KMS drivers might need to add extra properties to support new features. Each
|
|
new property introduced in a driver needs to meet a few requirements, in
|
|
addition to the one mentioned above:
|
|
|
|
* It must be standardized, documenting:
|
|
|
|
* The full, exact, name string;
|
|
* If the property is an enum, all the valid value name strings;
|
|
* What values are accepted, and what these values mean;
|
|
* What the property does and how it can be used;
|
|
* How the property might interact with other, existing properties.
|
|
|
|
* It must provide a generic helper in the core code to register that
|
|
property on the object it attaches to.
|
|
|
|
* Its content must be decoded by the core and provided in the object's
|
|
associated state structure. That includes anything drivers might want
|
|
to precompute, like struct drm_clip_rect for planes.
|
|
|
|
* Its initial state must match the behavior prior to the property
|
|
introduction. This might be a fixed value matching what the hardware
|
|
does, or it may be inherited from the state the firmware left the
|
|
system in during boot.
|
|
|
|
* An IGT test must be submitted where reasonable.
