We currently have two steps in panel initialization and startup: probing and enabling. After the panel has been probed, it's ready and can be configured and later enabled. This model is not enough with more complex display pipelines, where we may have, for example, two panels, of which only one can be used at a time, connected to the same video output. To support that kind of scenarios, we need to add new step to the initialization: connect. This patch adds support for connecting and disconnecting panels. After probe, but before connect, no panel ops should be called. When the connect is called, a proper video pipeline is established, and the panel is ready for use. If some part in the video pipeline is already connected (by some other panel), the connect call fails. One key difference with the old style setup is that connect() handles also connecting to the overlay manager. This means that the omapfb (or omapdrm) no longer needs to figure out which overlay manager to use, but it can just call connect() on the panel, and the proper overlay manager is connected by omapdss. This also allows us to add back the support for dynamic switching between two exclusive panels. However, the current panel device model is not changed to support this, as the new device model is implemented in the following patches and the old model will be removed. The new device model supports dynamic switching. Signed-off-by: Tomi Valkeinen <tomi.valkeinen@ti.com> |

************************************************************ * For the very latest on DRI development, please see: * * http://dri.freedesktop.org/ * ************************************************************ The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI). The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major ways: 1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via the use of an optimized two-tiered lock. 2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to restricted regions of memory. 3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context switch. 4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module. Documentation on the DRI is available from: http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Documentation http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=387 http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/ For specific information about kernel-level support, see: The Direct Rendering Manager, Kernel Support for the Direct Rendering Infrastructure http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/drm_low_level.html Hardware Locking for the Direct Rendering Infrastructure http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/hardware_locking_low_level.html A Security Analysis of the Direct Rendering Infrastructure http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/security_low_level.html
