Hello All,
I am seeking recommendations for DRM compatible methods of updating
the
HW
other than frame commit path. When exiting idle/runtime_suspend, the
driver
votes for a bunch of resources including power/clk/bandwidth as a part
of
first commit handling. This usually adds a few millisecond delay
before
processing the frame. The requirement is to find possible ways to
reduce
this delay by providing an early intimation to the framework to
"prepare"
the HW by voting for the resources and keep the HW ready to process an
imminent frame commit. Especially in performance oriented Automotive
world,
these delays are very time critical and we are working on ways to
mitigate
them.
DRM framework converges all the parameters affecting the HW in terms
of
DRM
properties in a single COMMIT call. To address the above issue, we
need
a
parallel channel which should allow the framework to make necessary
changes
to the HW without violating the master access privileges.
Before resorting to custom downstream ways, I want to check with the
community for folks who might have encountered and resolved such
issues.
Just enable the display, which will grab all the clocks and everything?
Once the display is on a commit should be possible on the next frame,
at
least for well-working drivers.

I believe even to turn on the display, DRM will need an explicit commit
(probably without any planes/pixel buffers). For cases like smart
panels, where we can keep the panel on(panel internal RAM refresh) and
power collapse the display HW, resuming back with an explicit commit
will push a black (or default color programmed in the HW) frame causing
a glitch.
