The DRI2 swap & sync implementation needs precise
vblank counts and precise timestamps corresponding
to those vblank counts. For conformance to the OpenML
OML_sync_control extension specification the DRM
timestamp associated with a vblank count should
correspond to the start of video scanout of the first
scanline of the video frame following the vblank
interval for that vblank count.
Therefore we need to carry around precise timestamps
for vblanks. Currently the DRM and KMS drivers generate
timestamps ad-hoc via do_gettimeofday() in some
places. The resulting timestamps are sometimes not
very precise due to interrupt handling delays, they
don't conform to OML_sync_control and some are wrong,
as they aren't taken synchronized to the vblank.
This patch implements support inside the drm core
for precise and robust timestamping. It consists
of the following interrelated pieces.
1. Vblank timestamp caching:
A per-crtc ringbuffer stores the most recent vblank
timestamps corresponding to vblank counts.
The ringbuffer can be read out lock-free via the
accessor function:
struct timeval timestamp;
vblankcount = drm_vblank_count_and_time(dev, crtcid, ×tamp).
The function returns the current vblank count and
the corresponding timestamp for start of video
scanout following the vblank interval. It can be
used anywhere between enclosing drm_vblank_get(dev, crtcid)
and drm_vblank_put(dev,crtcid) statements. It is used
inside the drmWaitVblank ioctl and in the vblank event
queueing and handling. It should be used by kms drivers for
timestamping of bufferswap completion.
The timestamp ringbuffer is reinitialized each time
vblank irq's get reenabled in drm_vblank_get()/
drm_update_vblank_count(). It is invalidated when
vblank irq's get disabled.
The ringbuffer is updated inside drm_handle_vblank()
at each vblank irq.
2. Calculation of precise vblank timestamps:
drm_get_last_vbltimestamp() is used to compute the
timestamp for the end of the most recent vblank (if
inside active scanout), or the expected end of the
current vblank interval (if called inside a vblank
interval). The function calls into a new optional kms
driver entry point dev->driver->get_vblank_timestamp()
which is supposed to provide the precise timestamp.
If a kms driver doesn't implement the entry point or
if the call fails, a simple do_gettimeofday() timestamp
is returned as crude approximation of the true vblank time.
A new drm module parameter drm.timestamp_precision_usec
allows to disable high precision timestamps (if set to
zero) or to specify the maximum acceptable error in
the timestamps in microseconds.
Kms drivers could implement their get_vblank_timestamp()
function in a gpu specific way, as long as returned
timestamps conform to OML_sync_control, e.g., by use
of gpu specific hardware timestamps.
Optionally, kms drivers can simply wrap and use the new
utility function drm_calc_vbltimestamp_from_scanoutpos().
This function calls a new optional kms driver function
dev->driver->get_scanout_position() which returns the
current horizontal and vertical video scanout position
of the crtc. The scanout position together with the
drm_display_timing of the current video mode is used
to calculate elapsed time relative to start of active scanout
for the current video frame. This elapsed time is subtracted
from the current do_gettimeofday() time to get the timestamp
corresponding to start of video scanout. Currently
non-interlaced, non-doublescan video modes, with or
without panel scaling are handled correctly. Interlaced/
doublescan modes are tbd in a future patch.
3. Filtering of redundant vblank irq's and removal of
some race-conditions in the vblank irq enable/disable path:
Some gpu's (e.g., Radeon R500/R600) send spurious vblank
irq's outside the vblank if vblank irq's get reenabled.
These get detected by use of the vblank timestamps and
filtered out to avoid miscounting of vblanks.
Some race-conditions between the vblank irq enable/disable
functions, the vblank irq handler and the gpu itself (updating
its hardware vblank counter in the "wrong" moment) are
fixed inside vblank_disable_and_save() and
drm_update_vblank_count() by use of the vblank timestamps and
a new spinlock dev->vblank_time_lock.
The time until vblank irq disable is now configurable via
a new drm module parameter drm.vblankoffdelay to allow
experimentation with timeouts that are much shorter than
the current 5 seconds and should allow longer vblank off
periods for better power savings.
Followup patches will use these new functions to
implement precise timestamping for the intel and radeon
kms drivers.

Only fallback to a set of default modes on a connector iff that

connector status as unknown will then attempt to retrieve the modes for
it during drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes(). Should that fail,
the helper then generates a default set which fools the fb_helper and

Polling for a VGA device on an old system can be quite expensive,
causing latencies on the order of 600ms. As we hold the mode mutex for
this time and also need the same mutex to move the cursor, we trigger a
user-visible stall.
The real solution would involve improving the granulatity of the
locking and so perhaps performing some of the probing not under the lock
or some other updates can be done under different locks. Also reducing the
cost of probing for a non-existent monitor would be worthwhile. However,
exposing a parameter to disable polling is a simple workaround in the
meantime.
In order to accommodate users turning polling on and off at runtime, the
polling is potentially re-enabled on every probe. This is coupled to
the user calling xrandr, which seems to be a vaild time to reset the
polling timeout since the information on the connection has just been
updated. (The presumption being that all connections are probed in a
single xrandr pass, which is currently valid.)

The fbdev layer in the kms code should act like a consumer of the kms services and avoid having relying on information being store in the kms core structures in order for it to work.
This patch
a) removes the info pointer/psuedo palette from the core drm_framebuffer structure and moves it to the fbdev helper layer, it also removes the core drm keeping a list of kernel kms fbdevs.
b) migrated all the fb helper functions out of the crtc helper file into the fb helper file.
c) pushed the fb probing/hotplug control into the driver
d) makes the surface sizes into a structure for ease of passing

Sometimes we will use a crtc for integerated LVDS, which is different with
that assigned by BIOS. If we want to get flicker-free transitions,
then we could read out the current state for it and set our current state
accordingly.
But it is true that if we aren't reading current state out, we do need
to turn everything off before modesetting. Otherwise the clocks can get very
angry and we get things worse than a flicker at boot.
In fact we also do the similar thing in UMS mode. We will disable all the
possible outputs/crtcs for the first modesetting.
So we disable all the possible outputs/crtcs before entering the KMS mode.
Before we configure connector/encoder/crtc, the function of
drm_helper_disable_unused_function can disable all the possible outputs/crtcs.

This uses the normal video= command line option to control the kms

done by kms.
video= normally takes a framebuffer as the first parameter, in kms
it will take a connector name, DVI-I-1, or LVDS-1 etc. If no output
connector is specified the mode string will apply to all connectors.
The mode specification used will match down the probed modes, and if
no mode is found it will add a CVT mode that matches.
video=1024x768 - all connectors match a 1024x768 mode or add a CVT on
video=VGA-1:1024x768, VGA-1 connector gets mode only.
The same strings as used in current fb modedb.c are used, except I've
added three more letters, e, D, d, e = enable, D = enable Digital,
d = disable, which allow a connector to be forced into a certain state.

When mode setting is first initialized, the driver will call into
drm_helper_initial_config() to set up an initial output and framebuffer
configuration. This routine is responsible for probing the available
connectors, encoders, and crtcs, looking for modes and putting together
something reasonable (where reasonable is defined as "allows kernel
messages to be visible on as many displays as possible").
However, the code was a bit too aggressive in setting default modes when
none were found on a given connector. Even if some connectors had modes,
any connectors found lacking modes would have the default 800x600 mode added
to their mode list, which in some cases could cause problems later down the
line. In my case, the LVDS was perfectly available, but the initial config
code added 800x600 modes to both of the detected but unavailable HDMI
connectors (which are on my non-existent docking station). This ended up
preventing later code from setting a mode on my LVDS, which is bad.
This patch fixes that behavior by making the initial config code walk
through the connectors first, counting the available modes, before it decides
to add any default modes to a possibly connected output. It also fixes the
logic in drm_target_preferred() that was causing zeroed out modes to be set
as the preferred mode for a given connector, even if no modes were available.

Add mode setting support to the DRM layer.
This is a fairly big chunk of work that allows DRM drivers to provide
full output control and configuration capabilities to userspace. It was
motivated by several factors:
- the fb layer's APIs aren't suited for anything but simple
configurations
- coordination between the fb layer, DRM layer, and various userspace
drivers is poor to non-existent (radeonfb excepted)
- user level mode setting drivers makes displaying panic & oops
messages more difficult
- suspend/resume of graphics state is possible in many more
configurations with kernel level support
This commit just adds the core DRM part of the mode setting APIs.
Driver specific commits using these new structure and APIs will follow.
