      drm/msm: add mdp5/apq8x74 · 06c0dd96

      Add support for the new MDP5 display controller block.  The mapping
      between parts of the display controller and KMS is:
      
        plane   -> PIPE{RGBn,VIGn}             \
        crtc    -> LM (layer mixer)            |-> MDP "device"
        encoder -> INTF                        /
        connector -> HDMI/DSI/eDP/etc          --> other device(s)
      
      Unlike MDP4, it appears we can get by with a single encoder, rather
      than needing a different implementation for DTV, DSI, etc.  (Ie. the
      register interface is same, just different bases.)
      
      Also unlike MDP4, all the IRQs for other blocks (HDMI, DSI, etc) are
      routed through MDP.
      
      And finally, MDP5 has this "Shared Memory Pool" (called "SMP"), from
      which blocks need to be allocated to the active pipes based on fetch
      stride.

      drm/msm: basic KMS driver for snapdragon · c8afe684
      Rob Clark authored
      The snapdragon chips have multiple different display controllers,
      depending on which chip variant/version.  (As far as I can tell, current
      devices have either MDP3 or MDP4, and upcoming devices have MDSS.)  And
      then external to the display controller are HDMI, DSI, etc. blocks which
      may be shared across devices which have different display controller
      blocks.
      
      To more easily add support for different display controller blocks, the
      display controller specific bits are split out into a "kms" module,
      which provides the kms plane/crtc/encoder objects.
      
      The external HDMI, DSI, etc. blocks are part encoder, and part connector
      currently.  But I think I will pull in the drm_bridge patches from
      chromeos tree, and split them into a bridge+connector, with the
      registers that need to be set in modeset handled by the bridge.  This
      would remove the 'msm_connector' base class.  But some things need to be
      double checked to make sure I could get the correct ON/OFF sequencing..
