drm/amd/display: Try RGB before YCbCr 4:4:4 in stream validationgrafted
amdgpu_dm_create_validate_stream_for_sink() walks encoding_order[] and
uses the first encoding that validates. YCbCr 4:4:4 is listed before
RGB, so an HDMI sink that advertises 4:4:4 gets YCbCr 4:4:4 whenever the
"color format" property is left at AUTO, even though RGB fits the same
link.
That contradicts the documented AUTO behaviour for HDMI in enum
drm_connector_color_format (RGB, falling back to YCbCr 4:2:0 only when
the bandwidth is not available or the mode is 4:2:0-only), which the
amdgpu implementation of the property also describes. It also leaves
the "Broadcast RGB" property without effect on such sinks, since the
quantization range it selects only applies to RGB output.
Try RGB first. The mask still holds every encoding the sink supports,
so a mode that cannot carry RGB falls back exactly as before.
For reference, v7.2 picked RGB here unless YCbCr 4:4:4 was forced
through debugfs, while earlier kernels picked YCbCr 4:4:4 for any HDMI
sink that advertised it.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +I/O request handling +==================== + +An I/O request of a User VM, which is constructed by the hypervisor, is +distributed by the ACRN Hypervisor Service Module to an I/O client +corresponding to the address range of the I/O request. Details of I/O request +handling are described in the following sections. + +1. I/O request +-------------- + +For each User VM, there is a shared 4-KByte memory region used for I/O requests +communication between the hypervisor and Service VM. An I/O request is a +256-byte structure buffer, which is 'struct acrn_io_request', that is filled by +an I/O handler of the hypervisor when a trapped I/O access happens in a User +VM. ACRN userspace in the Service VM first allocates a 4-KByte page and passes +the GPA (Guest Physical Address) of the buffer to the hypervisor. The buffer is +used as an array of 16 I/O request slots with each I/O request slot being 256 +bytes. This array is indexed by vCPU ID. + +2. I/O clients +-------------- + +An I/O client is responsible for handling User VM I/O requests whose accessed +GPA falls in a certain range. Multiple I/O clients can be associated with each +User VM. There is a special client associated with each User VM, called the +default client, that handles all I/O requests that do not fit into the range of +any other clients. The ACRN userspace acts as the default client for each User +VM. + +Below illustration shows the relationship between I/O requests shared buffer, +I/O requests and I/O clients. + +:: + + +------------------------------------------------------+ + | Service VM | + |+--------------------------------------------------+ | + || +----------------------------------------+ | | + || | shared page ACRN userspace | | | + || | +-----------------+ +------------+ | | | + || +----+->| acrn_io_request |<-+ default | | | | + || | | | +-----------------+ | I/O client | | | | + || | | | | ... | +------------+ | | | + || | | | +-----------------+ | | | + || | +-|--------------------------------------+ | | + ||---|----|-----------------------------------------| | + || | | kernel | | + || | | +----------------------+ | | + || | | | +-------------+ HSM | | | + || | +--------------+ | | | | + || | | | I/O clients | | | | + || | | | | | | | + || | | +-------------+ | | | + || | +----------------------+ | | + |+---|----------------------------------------------+ | + +----|-------------------------------------------------+ + | + +----|-------------------------------------------------+ + | +-+-----------+ | + | | I/O handler | ACRN Hypervisor | + | +-------------+ | + +------------------------------------------------------+ + +3.

The I/O handler of the hypervisor will fill an I/O request with PENDING + state when a trapped I/O access happens in a User VM. +b. The hypervisor makes an upcall, which is a notification interrupt, to + the Service VM. +c. The upcall handler schedules a worker to dispatch I/O requests. +d. The worker looks for the PENDING I/O requests, assigns them to different + registered clients based on the address of the I/O accesses, updates + their state to PROCESSING, and notifies the corresponding client to handle. +e. The notified client handles the assigned I/O requests. +f. The HSM updates I/O requests states to COMPLETE and notifies the hypervisor + of the completion via hypercalls. |
