Merge tag 'pinctrl-v7.3-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-pinctrlgrafted
Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij:
"Core changes:
- Use the non-blocking mux_state_try_select() in the generic MUX pin
control back-end
- Free pin maps on pinctrl_generic_to_map() failure in the core
helpers
New hardware pin control:
- Qualcomm Maili TLMM SoC, PMG1110 PMIC, and Eliza LPASS LPI TLMM SoC
(this is for the low power audio, LPASS = Low Power Audio SubSystem
portions)
- Upboard support on top of the Intel pin controller
- Apple T6030 and T6031 support (just compatible strings)
- Samsung Exynos 8855 SoC
- Mediatek MT6858 SoC
- Rockchip RK3308B and RV1106 SoCs
- Airoha EN7523 and AN7563 SoCs
Improvements:
- Qualcomm TLMM GPIOs are unconditionally marked as wakeup capable
- Qualcomm improvements on top of the Qualcomm PDC (power domain
controller) irqchip improvements from tglx:s tree
- Qualcomm IPQ806x and IPQ9650 non-urgent pin grop fixups
- The NPCM8xx driver has been put into shape fixing many pin and
group definitions
- Some non-urgent Tegra 264 pin assignments are fixed up
- Some non-urgent fixups to Airoha AN7581 and AN7583 registers and
pin assignments, missing features etc"

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.
