Laurent Pinchart 51c1327876 drm: Renesas SH Mobile DRM driver
The SH Mobile LCD controller (LCDC) DRM driver supports the main
graphics plane in RGB and YUV formats, as well as the overlay planes (in
alpha-blending mode only).

Only flat panel outputs using the parallel interface are supported.
Support for SYS panels, HDMI and DSI is currently not implemented.

Sascha Hauer b9d4745005 DRM: Add DRM GEM CMA helper
Many embedded drm devices do not have a IOMMU and no dedicated
memory for graphics. These devices use CMA (Contiguous Memory
Allocator) backed graphics memory. This patch provides helper
functions to be able to share the code. The code technically does
not depend on CMA as the backend allocator, the name has been chosen
because CMA makes for a nice, short but still descriptive function
prefix.

Dave Airlie f9aa76a852 drm/kms: driver for virtual cirrus under qemu
This is the initial driver for emulated cirrus GPU found in qemu.
This driver only supports the emulated GPU and doesn't attempt
to bind to any real cirrus GPUs.

This driver is intended to be used with xf86-video-modesetting in userspace.
It requires at least version 0.3.0

This follow the same design as ast and mgag200, and is based on work
done by Matthew Garrett previously.

This GPU has no hw cursor, and it can't scanout 32-bpp, only packed 24-bpp.
i.e. it sucks.

Dave Airlie 414c453106 mgag200: initial g200se driver (v2)
This is a driver for the G200 server engines chips,
it doesn't driver any of the Matrix G series desktop cards.

It will bind to G200 SE A,B, G200EV, G200WB, G200EH and G200ER cards.

Its based on previous work done my Matthew Garrett but remodelled
to follow the same style and flow as the AST server driver. It also
works along the same lines as the AST server driver wrt memory management.

There is no userspace driver planned, xf86-video-modesetting should be used.
It also appears these GPUs have no ARGB hw cursors.

v2: add missing tagfifo reset + G200 SE memory bw setup pieces.

Dave Airlie 312fec1405 drm: Initial KMS driver for AST (ASpeed Technologies) 2000 series (v2)
This is the initial driver for the Aspeed Technologies chips found in
servers. This driver supports the AST 2000, 2100, 2200, 2150 and 2300. It
doesn't support the AST11xx due to lack of hw to test it on, and them requiring
different codepaths.

This driver is intended to be used with xf86-video-modesetting in userspace.

This driver has a slightly different design than other KMS drivers, but
future server chips will probably share similiar setup. As these GPUs commonly
have low video RAM, it doesn't make sense to put the kms console in VRAM
always. This driver places the kms console into system RAM, and does dirty
updates to a copy in video RAM. When userspace sets a new scanout buffer,
it forcefully evicts the video RAM console, and X can create a framebuffer
that can use all of of video RAM.

This driver uses TTM but in a very simple fashion to control the eviction
to system RAM of the console, and multiple servers.

v2: add s/r support, fix Kconfig.

Dave Airlie 3248877ea1 drm: base prime/dma-buf support (v5)
This adds the basic drm dma-buf interface layer, called PRIME. This
commit doesn't add any driver support, it is simply and agreed upon starting
point so we can work towards merging driver support for the next merge window.

Current drivers with work done are nouveau, i915, udl, exynos and omap.

The main APIs exposed to userspace allow translating a 32-bit object handle
to a file descriptor, and a file descriptor to a 32-bit object handle.

The flags value is currently limited to O_CLOEXEC.

Carsten Emde da0df92b57 drm: allow loading an EDID as firmware to override broken monitor
Broken monitors and/or broken graphic boards may send erroneous or no
EDID data. This also applies to broken KVM devices that are unable to
correctly forward the EDID data of the connected monitor but invent
their own fantasy data.

This patch allows to specify an EDID data set to be used instead of
probing the monitor for it. It contains built-in data sets of frequently
used screen resolutions. In addition, a particular EDID data set may be
provided in the /lib/firmware directory and loaded via the firmware
interface. The name is passed to the kernel as module parameter of the
drm_kms_helper module either when loaded
  options drm_kms_helper edid_firmware=edid/1280x1024.bin
or as kernel commandline parameter
  drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=edid/1280x1024.bin

It is also possible to restrict the usage of a specified EDID data set
to a particular connector. This is done by prepending the name of the
connector to the name of the EDID data set using the syntax
  edid_firmware=[<connector>:]<edid>
such as, for example,
  edid_firmware=DVI-I-1:edid/1920x1080.bin
in which case no other connector will be affected.

The built-in data sets are
Resolution    Name
--------------------------------
1024x768      edid/1024x768.bin
1280x1024     edid/1280x1024.bin
1680x1050     edid/1680x1050.bin
1920x1080     edid/1920x1080.bin

They are ignored, if a file with the same name is available in the
/lib/firmware directory.

The built-in EDID data sets are based on standard timings that may not
apply to a particular monitor and even crash it. Ideally, EDID data of
the connected monitor should be used. They may be obtained through the
drm/cardX/cardX-<connector>/edid entry in the /sys/devices PCI directory
of a correctly working graphics adapter.

It is even possible to specify the name of an EDID data set on-the-fly
via the /sys/module interface, e.g.
echo edid/myedid.bin >/sys/module/drm_kms_helper/parameters/edid_firmware
The new screen mode is considered when the related kernel function is
called for the first time after the change. Such calls are made when the
X server is started or when the display settings dialog is opened in an
already running X server.

Inki Dae 1c248b7d29 DRM: add DRM Driver for Samsung SoC EXYNOS4210.
This patch is a DRM Driver for Samsung SoC Exynos4210 and now enables
only FIMD yet but we will add HDMI support also in the future.

this patch is based on git repository below:
git://people.freedesktop.org/~airlied/linux.git
branch name: drm-next
commit-id: 88ef4e3f4f

you can refer to our working repository below:
http://git.infradead.org/users/kmpark/linux-2.6-samsung
branch name: samsung-drm

We tried to re-use lowlevel codes of the FIMD driver(s3c-fb.c
based on Linux framebuffer) but couldn't so because lowlevel codes
of s3c-fb.c are included internally and so FIMD module of this driver has
its own lowlevel codes.

We used GEM framework for buffer management and DMA APIs(dma_alloc_*)
for buffer allocation so we can allocate physically continuous memory
for DMA through it and also we could use CMA later if CMA is applied to
mainline.

Refer to this link for CMA(Continuous Memory Allocator):
http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/7/20/45

this driver supports only physically continuous memory(non-iommu).

v4: < http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.video.dri.devel/60439 >
v5: < http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.video.dri.devel/60802 >

Changelog v2:
DRM: add DRM_IOCTL_SAMSUNG_GEM_MMAP ioctl command.

    this feature maps user address space to physical memory region
    once user application requests DRM_IOCTL_SAMSUNG_GEM_MMAP ioctl.

DRM: code clean and add exception codes.

Changelog v3:
DRM: Support multiple irq.

    FIMD and HDMI have their own irq handler but DRM Framework can regiter
    only one irq handler this patch supports mutiple irq for Samsung SoC.

DRM: Consider modularization.

    each DRM, FIMD could be built as a module.

DRM: Have indenpendent crtc object.

    crtc isn't specific to SoC Platform so this patch gets a crtc
    to be used as common object.
    created crtc could be attached to any encoder object.

DRM: code clean and add exception codes.

Changelog v4:
DRM: remove is_defult from samsung_fb.

    is_default isn't used for default framebuffer.

DRM: code refactoring to fimd module.
    this patch is be considered with multiple display objects and
    would use its own request_irq() to register a irq handler instead of
    drm framework's one.

DRM: remove find_samsung_drm_gem_object()

DRM: move kernel private data structures and definitions to driver folder.

    samsung_drm.h would contain only public information for userspace
    ioctl interface.

DRM: code refactoring to gem modules.
    buffer module isn't dependent of gem module anymore.

DRM: fixed security issue.

DRM: remove encoder porinter from specific connector.

    samsung connector doesn't need to have generic encoder.

DRM: code clean and add exception codes.

Changelog v5:
DRM: updated fimd(display controller) driver.
    added various pixel formats, color key and pixel blending features.

DRM: removed end_buf_off from samsung_drm_overlay structure.
    this variable isn't used and end buffer address would be
    calculated by each sub driver.

DRM: use generic function for mmap_offset.
    replaced samsung_drm_gem_create_mmap_offset() and
    samsung_drm_free_mmap_offset() with generic ones applied
    to mainline recentrly.

DRM: removed unnecessary codes and added exception codes.

DRM: added comments and code clean.

Changelog v6:
DRM: added default config options.

DRM: added padding for 64-bit align.

DRM: changed prefix 'samsung' to 'exynos'

Daniel Vetter 8f879194f8 drm: replace drawable ioctl by noops
The information supplied by userspace through these ioctls is only
accessible by dev->drw_idr. But there's no in-tree user of that.
Also userspace does not really care about return values of these ioctls,
either. Only hw/xfree86/dri/dri.c from the xserver actually checks the
return from adddraw and keeps on trying to create a kernel drawable
every time somebody creates a dri drawable. But since that's now a noop,
who cares.

Therefore it's safe to replace these three ioctls with noops and rip
out the implementation.

Pauli Nieminen 7a9f0dd9c4 drm: Add generic multipart buffer.
Allocating multiple pages of memory for data that is coming
from user space may fail. To fix memory allocation failures
the buffer object should be split to multiple independ pages.

drm buffer provides generic interface to copy and process
large data arrays from user space.

Interface includes allocation and free functions to allocate
the buffer object and data storage pages.

All access operations are performed relative to a internal
pointer which is advanced with drm_buffer_advance function.

The buffer can be accessed using drm_buffer_pointer_to_XXX
functions if it is known that requested object doesn't split
over a page boundary. These functions don't do any error
checking to maximize performance.

If there is large object which could be split there is special
drm_buffer_read_object function. drm_buffer_read_object takes
a pointer as argument which is used as temporary store for
data if it is split over boundary in the buffer.

Thomas Hellstrom ba4e7d973d drm: Add the TTM GPU memory manager subsystem.
TTM is a GPU memory manager subsystem designed for use with GPU
devices with various memory types (On-card VRAM, AGP,
PCI apertures etc.). It's essentially a helper library that assists
the DRM driver in creating and managing persistent buffer objects.

TTM manages placement of data and CPU map setup and teardown on
data movement. It can also optionally manage synchronization of
data on a per-buffer-object level.

TTM takes care to provide an always valid virtual user-space address
to a buffer object which makes user-space sub-allocation of
big buffer objects feasible.

TTM uses a fine-grained per buffer-object locking scheme, taking
care to release all relevant locks when waiting for the GPU.
Although this implies some locking overhead, it's probably a big
win for devices with multiple command submission mechanisms, since
the lock contention will be minimal.

TTM can be used with whatever user-space interface the driver
chooses, including GEM. It's used by the upcoming Radeon KMS DRM driver
and is also the GPU memory management core of various new experimental
DRM drivers.

Dave Airlie f453ba0460 DRM: add mode setting support
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.

Eric Anholt 673a394b1e drm: Add GEM ("graphics execution manager") to i915 driver.
GEM allows the creation of persistent buffer objects accessible by the
graphics device through new ioctls for managing execution of commands on the
device.  The userland API is almost entirely driver-specific to ensure that
any driver building on this model can easily map the interface to individual
driver requirements.

GEM is used by the 2d driver for managing its internal state allocations and
will be used for pixmap storage to reduce memory consumption and enable
zero-copy GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap, and in the 3d driver is used to enable
GL_EXT_framebuffer_object and GL_ARB_pixel_buffer_object.

Dave Airlie c0e09200dc drm: reorganise drm tree to be more future proof.
With the coming of kernel based modesetting and the memory manager stuff,
the everything in one directory approach was getting very ugly and
starting to be unmanageable.

This restructures the drm along the lines of other kernel components.

It creates a drivers/gpu/drm directory and moves the hw drivers into
subdirectores. It moves the includes into an include/drm, and
sets up the unifdef for the userspace headers we should be exporting.
