drm/i915: Introduce FBC DocBook.
No functional changes. v2 (Paulo): Rebase. v3: Accept Daniel's suggestions: * remove unclear and duplicated explanation. * remove marketing like doc and replace by a simple one. * remove bdw_fbc_sw_flush documentation. Signed-off-by: Rodrigo Vivi <rodrigo.vivi@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Paulo Zanoni <paulo.r.zanoni@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>

/* FBC, or Frame Buffer Compression, is a technique employed to compress the

/**
|

* DOC: Frame Buffer Compression (FBC)
|
||||
*
|
||||
* FBC tries to save memory bandwidth (and so power consumption) by
|
||||
* compressing the amount of memory used by the display. It is total
|
||||
* transparent to user space and completely handled in the kernel.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* The benefits of FBC are mostly visible with solid backgrounds and
|
||||
* variation-less patterns.
|
||||
* variation-less patterns. It comes from keeping the memory footprint small
|
||||
* and having fewer memory pages opened and accessed for refreshing the display.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* FBC-related functionality can be enabled by the means of the
|
||||
* i915.i915_fbc_enable parameter
|
||||
* i915 is responsible to reserve stolen memory for FBC and configure its
|
||||
* offset on proper registers. The hardware takes care of all
|
||||
* compress/decompress. However there are many known cases where we have to
|
||||
* forcibly disable it to allow proper screen updates.
