Any interest in using igt to test this stuff? We have at least a bunch of tests already in there that try all kinds of plane setups. And we use those to hunt for underruns on i915 hw. Wrt underrun reporting: On i915 we just dump them into dmesg at the error level, using DRM_ERROR, plus a tracepoint. See e.g. intel_pch_fifo_underrun_irq_handler(). If there's interest we could perhaps extract this into something common, similar to what was done with crc support already. > --- > drivers/gpu/drm/vc4/vc4_drv.h | 11 +++++ > drivers/gpu/drm/vc4/vc4_kms.c | 104 > +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- > drivers/gpu/drm/vc4/vc4_plane.c | 60 +++++++++++++++++++++++ > 3 files changed, 174 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/vc4/vc4_drv.h b/drivers/gpu/drm/vc4/vc4_drv.h > index bd6ef1f31822..48f6ee5ceda3 100644 > --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/vc4/vc4_drv.h > +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/vc4/vc4_drv.h > @@ -200,6 +200,7 @@ struct vc4_dev { > > struct drm_modeset_lock ctm_state_lock; > struct drm_private_obj ctm_manager; > + struct drm_private_obj load_tracker; > }; > > static inline struct vc4_dev * > @@ -369,6 +370,16 @@ struct vc4_plane_state { > * to enable background color fill. > */ > bool needs_bg_fill; > + > + /* Load of this plane on the HVS block.

See the kerneldoc for drm_atomic_get_private_obj_state(). Probably a good time to implement the locking refactoring idea I have and just implement a per private_obj lock, and remove all the ad-hoc locking from all the callers? Would definitely simplify the code, and avoid "oops no locking" issues like here.

ENOSPC isn't one of the permitted errno codes, see the kernel-doc for &drm_mode_config_funcs.atomic_check. atomic_commit has a different set of permissible errno codes.
