sched_ext: Maintain an online cid mask in the scheduler arenagrafted
Schedulers on the default cid mapping treat [0, nr_online_cids) as the
online set and restart on hotplug. Schedulers that install their own mapping
with scx_bpf_cid_override() have no way to learn which cids are online: the
count no longer identifies members and the CPU-form cpumask is unusable from
cid programs. This is an obvious hole in the cid API.
Add scx_bpf_online_cmask(), a kernel-maintained cmask in the scheduler's
arena, allocated alongside the per-CPU scratch masks and populated after the
cid mapping is finalized and before ops.init(), for child schedulers too.
The pointer stays valid through ops.exit() with no reference to take. It is
the arena offset as a void pointer, the same form struct_ops arena arguments
arrive in. The verifier types the void return as a scalar for the program's
arena cast.
The mask follows the SCX hotplug notifications: seeded from cpu_active_mask
and updated before ops.cid_online/offline() runs, so it lags cpu_online_mask
only inside a hotplug transition. Updates walk the scheduler list under the
lock that also serializes unlinking. Reads are live, not atomic snapshots.
Root initialization excludes hotplug.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+ + +=================================== + Arm Framebuffer Compression (AFBC) +=================================== + +AFBC is a proprietary lossless image compression protocol and format. +It provides fine-grained random access and minimizes the amount of +data transferred between IP blocks. + +AFBC can be enabled on drivers which support it via use of the AFBC +format modifiers defined in drm_fourcc.h. See DRM_FORMAT_MOD_ARM_AFBC(*). + +All users of the AFBC modifiers must follow the usage guidelines laid +out in this document, to ensure compatibility across different AFBC +producers and consumers. + +Components and Ordering +======================= + +AFBC streams can contain several components - where a component +corresponds to a color channel (i.e. R, G, B, X, A, Y, Cb, Cr). +The assignment of input/output color channels must be consistent +between the encoder and the decoder for correct operation, otherwise +the consumer will interpret the decoded data incorrectly. + +Furthermore, when the lossless colorspace transform is used +(AFBC_FORMAT_MOD_YTR, which should be enabled for RGB buffers for +maximum compression efficiency), the component order must be: + + * Component 0: R + * Component 1: G + * Component 2: B + +The component ordering is communicated via the fourcc code in the +fourcc:modifier pair. In general, component '0' is considered to +reside in the least-significant bits of the corresponding linear +format. For example, COMP(bits): + + * DRM_FORMAT_ABGR8888 + + * Component 0: R(8) + * Component 1: G(8) + * Component 2: B(8) + * Component 3: A(8) + + * DRM_FORMAT_BGR888 + + * Component 0: R(8) + * Component 1: G(8) + * Component 2: B(8) + + * DRM_FORMAT_YUYV + + * Component 0: Y(8) + * Component 1: Cb(8, 2x1 subsampled) + * Component 2: Cr(8, 2x1 subsampled) + +In AFBC, 'X' components are not treated any differently from any other +component. Therefore, an AFBC buffer with fourcc DRM_FORMAT_XBGR8888 +encodes with 4 components, like so: + + * DRM_FORMAT_XBGR8888 + + * Component 0: R(8) + * Component 1: G(8) + * Component 2: B(8) + * Component 3: X(8) + +Please note, however, that the inclusion of a "wasted" 'X' channel is +bad for compression efficiency, and so it's recommended to avoid +formats containing 'X' bits. If a fourth component is +required/expected by the encoder/decoder, then it is recommended to +instead use an equivalent format with alpha, setting all alpha bits to +'1'. If there is no requirement for a fourth component, then a format +which doesn't include alpha can be used, e.g. DRM_FORMAT_BGR888. + +Number of Planes +================ + +Formats which are typically multi-planar in linear layouts (e.g. YUV +420), can be encoded into one, or multiple, AFBC planes. As with +component order, the encoder and decoder must agree about the number +of planes in order to correctly decode the buffer. The fourcc code is +used to determine the number of encoded planes in an AFBC buffer, +matching the number of planes for the linear (unmodified) format. +Within each plane, the component ordering also follows the fourcc +code: + +For example: + + * DRM_FORMAT_YUYV: nplanes = 1 + + * Plane 0: + + * Component 0: Y(8) + * Component 1: Cb(8, 2x1 subsampled) + * Component 2: Cr(8, 2x1 subsampled) + + * DRM_FORMAT_NV12: nplanes = 2 + + * Plane 0: + + * Component 0: Y(8) + + * Plane 1: + + * Component 0: Cb(8, 2x1 subsampled) + * Component 1: Cr(8, 2x1 subsampled) + +Cross-device interoperability +============================= + +For maximum compatibility across devices, the table below defines +canonical formats for use between AFBC-enabled devices.
