drm: add support for tiled/compressed/etc modifier in addfb2
In DRM/KMS we are lacking a good way to deal with tiled/compressed
formats. Especially in the case of dmabuf/prime buffer sharing, where
we cannot always rely on under-the-hood flags passed to driver specific
gem-create ioctl to pass around these extra flags.
The proposal is to add a per-plane format modifier. This allows to, if
necessary, use different tiling patters for sub-sampled planes, etc.
The format modifiers are added at the end of the ioctl struct, so for
legacy userspace it will be zero padded.
v1: original
v1.5: increase modifier to 64b
v2: Incorporate review comments from the big thread, plus a few more.
- Add a getcap so that userspace doesn't have to jump through hoops.
- Allow modifiers only when a flag is set. That way drivers know when
they're dealing with old userspace and need to fish out e.g. tiling
from other information.
- After rolling out checks for ->modifier to all drivers I've decided
that this is way too fragile and needs an explicit opt-in flag. So
do that instead.
- Add a define (just for documentation really) for the "NONE"
modifier. Imo we don't need to add mask #defines since drivers
really should only do exact matches against values defined with
fourcc_mod_code.
- Drop the Samsung tiling modifier on Rob's request since he's not yet
sure whether that one is accurate.
v3:
- Also add a new ->modifier[] array to struct drm_framebuffer and fill
it in drm_helper_mode_fill_fb_struct. Requested by Tvrkto Uruslin.
- Remove TODO in comment and add code comment that modifiers should be
properly documented, requested by Rob.
