    <para>
      For consistency this documentation uses American English. Abbreviations
      are written as all-uppercase, for example: DRM, KMS, IOCTL, CRTC, and so
      on. To aid in reading, documentations make full use of the markup
      characters kerneldoc provides: @parameter for function parameters, @member
      for structure members, &amp;structure to reference structures and
      function() for functions. These all get automatically hyperlinked if
      kerneldoc for the referenced objects exists. When referencing entries in
      function vtables please use -&gt;vfunc(). Note that kerneldoc does
      not support referencing struct members directly, so please add a reference
      to the vtable struct somewhere in the same paragraph or at least section.
    </para>
    <para>
      Except in special situations (to separate locked from unlocked variants)
      locking requirements for functions aren't documented in the kerneldoc.
      Instead locking should be check at runtime using e.g.
      <code>WARN_ON(!mutex_is_locked(...));</code>. Since it's much easier to
      ignore documentation than runtime noise this provides more value. And on
      top of that runtime checks do need to be updated when the locking rules
      change, increasing the chances that they're correct. Within the
      documentation the locking rules should be explained in the relevant
      structures: Either in the comment for the lock explaining what it
      protects, or data fields need a note about which lock protects them, or
      both.
    </para>
    <para>
      Functions which have a non-<code>void</code> return value should have a
      section called "Returns" explaining the expected return values in
      different cases and their meanings. Currently there's no consensus whether
      that section name should be all upper-case or not, and whether it should
      end in a colon or not. Go with the file-local style. Other common section
      names are "Notes" with information for dangerous or tricky corner cases,
      and "FIXME" where the interface could be cleaned up.

  <chapter id="drmInternals">
    <title>DRM Internals</title>
    <para>
      This chapter documents DRM internals relevant to driver authors
      and developers working to add support for the latest features to
      existing drivers.
    </para>
    <para>
176
      First, we go over some typical driver initialization
177 178
      requirements, like setting up command buffers, creating an
      initial output configuration, and initializing core services.
179
      Subsequent sections cover core internals in more detail,
180 181 182 183 184 185 186 187 188 189 190 191 192 193 194
      providing implementation notes and examples.
    </para>
    <para>
      The DRM layer provides several services to graphics drivers,
      many of them driven by the application interfaces it provides
      through libdrm, the library that wraps most of the DRM ioctls.
      These include vblank event handling, memory
      management, output management, framebuffer management, command
      submission &amp; fencing, suspend/resume support, and DMA
      services.
    </para>

    <title>Driver Initialization</title>
    <para>
      At the core of every DRM driver is a <structname>drm_driver</structname>
      structure. Drivers typically statically initialize a drm_driver structure,
199 200 201 202
      and then pass it to <function>drm_dev_alloc()</function> to allocate a
      device instance. After the device instance is fully initialized it can be
      registered (which makes it accessible from userspace) using
      <function>drm_dev_register()</function>.
203
    </para>
204 205 206 207 208 209 210
    <para>
      The <structname>drm_driver</structname> structure contains static
      information that describes the driver and features it supports, and
      pointers to methods that the DRM core will call to implement the DRM API.
      We will first go through the <structname>drm_driver</structname> static
      information fields, and will then describe individual operations in
      details as they get used in later sections.

        <title>Driver Features</title>
        <para>
          Drivers inform the DRM core about their requirements and supported
          features by setting appropriate flags in the
          <structfield>driver_features</structfield> field. Since those flags
          influence the DRM core behaviour since registration time, most of them
          must be set to registering the <structname>drm_driver</structname>
          instance.

        <para>
          The DRM core identifies driver versions by a major, minor and patch
          level triplet. The information is printed to the kernel log at
          initialization time and passed to userspace through the
          DRM_IOCTL_VERSION ioctl.
        </para>
        <para>
          The major and minor numbers are also used to verify the requested driver
          API version passed to DRM_IOCTL_SET_VERSION. When the driver API changes
          between minor versions, applications can call DRM_IOCTL_SET_VERSION to
          select a specific version of the API. If the requested major isn't equal
          to the driver major, or the requested minor is larger than the driver
          minor, the DRM_IOCTL_SET_VERSION call will return an error. Otherwise
          the driver's set_version() method will be called with the requested
          version.

          The driver name is printed to the kernel log at initialization time,
          used for IRQ registration and passed to userspace through
          DRM_IOCTL_VERSION.
        </para>
        <para>
          The driver description is a purely informative string passed to
          userspace through the DRM_IOCTL_VERSION ioctl and otherwise unused by
          the kernel.
        </para>
        <para>
          The driver date, formatted as YYYYMMDD, is meant to identify the date of
          the latest modification to the driver. However, as most drivers fail to
          update it, its value is mostly useless. The DRM core prints it to the
          kernel log at initialization time and passes it to userspace through the
          DRM_IOCTL_VERSION ioctl.

          The DRM core tries to facilitate IRQ handler registration and

          <function>drm_irq_uninstall</function> functions. Those functions only
365 366
          support a single interrupt per device, devices that use more than one

            <function>drm_irq_install</function> starts by calling the
            <methodname>irq_preinstall</methodname> driver operation. The operation
            is optional and must make sure that the interrupt will not get fired by
            clearing all pending interrupt flags or disabling the interrupt.
          </para>
          <para>
377
            The passed-in IRQ will then be requested by a call to

            <function>request_irq</function>. If the DRIVER_IRQ_SHARED driver
            feature flag is set, a shared (IRQF_SHARED) IRQ handler will be
            requested.
          </para>
          <para>
            The IRQ handler function must be provided as the mandatory irq_handler
            driver operation. It will get passed directly to
            <function>request_irq</function> and thus has the same prototype as all
            IRQ handlers. It will get called with a pointer to the DRM device as the
            second argument.
          </para>
          <para>
            Finally the function calls the optional
            <methodname>irq_postinstall</methodname> driver operation. The operation
            usually enables interrupts (excluding the vblank interrupt, which is
            enabled separately), but drivers may choose to enable/disable interrupts
            at a different time.
          </para>
          <para>

            Drivers that require multiple interrupt handlers can't use the managed

          Every DRM driver requires a memory manager which must be initialized at
          load time. DRM currently contains two memory managers, the Translation

        <para>
          Another task that may be necessary for PCI devices during configuration
          is mapping the video BIOS. On many devices, the VBIOS describes device
          configuration, LCD panel timings (if any), and contains flags indicating
          device state. Mapping the BIOS can be done using the pci_map_rom() call,
          a convenience function that takes care of mapping the actual ROM,
          whether it has been shadowed into memory (typically at address 0xc0000)
          or exists on the PCI device in the ROM BAR. Note that after the ROM has
          been mapped and any necessary information has been extracted, it should
          be unmapped; on many devices, the ROM address decoder is shared with
          other BARs, so leaving it mapped could cause undesired behaviour like
          hangs or memory corruption.

      Modern Linux systems require large amount of graphics memory to store
      frame buffers, textures, vertices and other graphics-related data. Given

      The DRM core includes two memory managers, namely Translation Table Maps
      (TTM) and Graphics Execution Manager (GEM). TTM was the first DRM memory
      manager to be developed and tried to be a one-size-fits-them all
480
      solution. It provides a single userspace API to accommodate the need of
481 482 483 484 485 486 487 488 489 490 491
      all hardware, supporting both Unified Memory Architecture (UMA) devices
      and devices with dedicated video RAM (i.e. most discrete video cards).
      This resulted in a large, complex piece of code that turned out to be
      hard to use for driver development.
    </para>
    <para>
      GEM started as an Intel-sponsored project in reaction to TTM's
      complexity. Its design philosophy is completely different: instead of
      providing a solution to every graphics memory-related problems, GEM
      identified common code between drivers and created a support library to
      share it. GEM has simpler initialization and execution requirements than
492
      TTM, but has no video RAM management capabilities and is thus limited to
493 494
      UMA devices.

          There should be one global reference structure for your memory
          manager as a whole, and there will be others for each object
          created by the memory manager at runtime.  Your global TTM should
          have a type of TTM_GLOBAL_TTM_MEM.  The size field for the global
          object should be sizeof(struct ttm_mem_global), and the init and
          release hooks should point at your driver-specific init and
          release routines, which probably eventually call

          Once your global TTM accounting structure is set up and initialized

          kernel itself.  The type of this object should be TTM_GLOBAL_TTM_BO,

        The GEM design approach has resulted in a memory manager that doesn't

        GEM is data-agnostic. It manages abstract buffer objects without knowing

          GEM objects are represented by an instance of struct

          <structname>drm_gem_object</structname>.
        </para>
        <para>
          To create a GEM object, a driver allocates memory for an instance of its
          specific GEM object type and initializes the embedded struct
          <structname>drm_gem_object</structname> with a call to
          <function>drm_gem_object_init</function>. The function takes a pointer to

          field. The memory is used as either main storage for the object when the

          object, or to delay allocation until the memory is needed (for instance
          when a page fault occurs as a result of a userspace memory access or

        <para>
          Communication between userspace and the kernel refers to GEM objects
          using local handles, global names or, more recently, file descriptors.
          All of those are 32-bit integer values; the usual Linux kernel limits
          apply to the file descriptors.
        </para>
        <para>
          GEM handles are local to a DRM file. Applications get a handle to a GEM
          object through a driver-specific ioctl, and can use that handle to refer
          to the GEM object in other standard or driver-specific ioctls. Closing a
          DRM file handle frees all its GEM handles and dereferences the
          associated GEM objects.
        </para>
        <para>
          To create a handle for a GEM object drivers call
          <function>drm_gem_handle_create</function>. The function takes a pointer
          to the DRM file and the GEM object and returns a locally unique handle.
          When the handle is no longer needed drivers delete it with a call to
          <function>drm_gem_handle_delete</function>. Finally the GEM object
          associated with a handle can be retrieved by a call to
          <function>drm_gem_object_lookup</function>.
        </para>
        <para>
          Handles don't take ownership of GEM objects, they only take a reference
          to the object that will be dropped when the handle is destroyed. To
          avoid leaking GEM objects, drivers must make sure they drop the
          reference(s) they own (such as the initial reference taken at object
          creation time) as appropriate, without any special consideration for the
          handle. For example, in the particular case of combined GEM object and
          handle creation in the implementation of the
          <methodname>dumb_create</methodname> operation, drivers must drop the
          initial reference to the GEM object before returning the handle.
        </para>
        <para>
          GEM names are similar in purpose to handles but are not local to DRM
          files. They can be passed between processes to reference a GEM object
          globally. Names can't be used directly to refer to objects in the DRM
          API, applications must convert handles to names and names to handles
          using the DRM_IOCTL_GEM_FLINK and DRM_IOCTL_GEM_OPEN ioctls
          respectively. The conversion is handled by the DRM core without any
          driver-specific support.

          GEM also supports buffer sharing with dma-buf file descriptors through

          read/write-like access to buffers, implemented through driver-specific
          ioctls, over mapping buffers to userspace. However, when random access
          to the buffer is needed (to perform software rendering for instance),
          direct access to the object can be more efficient.

          The mmap system call can't be used directly to map GEM objects, as they
          don't have their own file handle. Two alternative methods currently
          co-exist to map GEM objects to userspace. The first method uses a
          driver-specific ioctl to perform the mapping operation, calling
          <function>do_mmap</function> under the hood. This is often considered
          dubious, seems to be discouraged for new GEM-enabled drivers, and will
          thus not be described here.

          DRM identifies the GEM object to be mapped by a fake offset passed
          through the mmap offset argument. Prior to being mapped, a GEM object
          must thus be associated with a fake offset. To do so, drivers must call

        <title>Memory Coherency</title>
        <para>
          When mapped to the device or used in a command buffer, backing pages
          for an object are flushed to memory and marked write combined so as to
          be coherent with the GPU. Likewise, if the CPU accesses an object
          after the GPU has finished rendering to the object, then the object
          must be made coherent with the CPU's view of memory, usually involving
          GPU cache flushing of various kinds. This core CPU&lt;-&gt;GPU
          coherency management is provided by a device-specific ioctl, which
          evaluates an object's current domain and performs any necessary
          flushing or synchronization to put the object into the desired
          coherency domain (note that the object may be busy, i.e. an active
          render target; in that case, setting the domain blocks the client and
          waits for rendering to complete before performing any necessary
          flushing operations).

          command execution interface to clients. Client programs construct
          command buffers containing references to previously allocated memory
          objects, and then submit them to GEM. At that point, GEM takes care to
          bind all the objects into the GTT, execute the buffer, and provide
          necessary synchronization between clients accessing the same buffers.
          This often involves evicting some objects from the GTT and re-binding
          others (a fairly expensive operation), and providing relocation
          support which hides fixed GTT offsets from clients. Clients must take
          care not to submit command buffers that reference more objects than
          can fit in the GTT; otherwise, GEM will reject them and no rendering
          will occur. Similarly, if several objects in the buffer require fence
          registers to be allocated for correct rendering (e.g. 2D blits on
          pre-965 chips), care must be taken not to require more fence registers
          than are available to the client. Such resource management should be
          abstracted from the client in libdrm.

          Similar to GEM global names, PRIME file descriptors are
          also used to share buffer objects across processes. They offer
          additional security: as file descriptors must be explicitly sent over

        Frame buffers are abstract memory objects that provide a source of
        pixels to scanout to a CRTC. Applications explicitly request the
        creation of frame buffers through the DRM_IOCTL_MODE_ADDFB(2) ioctls and
        receive an opaque handle that can be passed to the KMS CRTC control,
        plane configuration and page flip functions.
      </para>
      <para>
        Frame buffers rely on the underneath memory manager for low-level memory
        operations. When creating a frame buffer applications pass a memory
        handle (or a list of memory handles for multi-planar formats) through
1001 1002 1003 1004 1005
	the <parameter>drm_mode_fb_cmd2</parameter> argument. For drivers using
	GEM as their userspace buffer management interface this would be a GEM
	handle.  Drivers are however free to use their own backing storage object
	handles, e.g. vmwgfx directly exposes special TTM handles to userspace
	and so expects TTM handles in the create ioctl and not GEM handles.

	The KMS API doesn't standardize backing storage object creation and

	sharing and destroying objects. While not an issue for full-fledged
	graphics stacks that include device-specific userspace components (in
	libdrm for instance), this limit makes DRM-based early boot graphics
	unnecessarily complex.

      <title>Locking</title>
      <para>
        Beside some lookup structures with their own locking (which is hidden
	behind the interface functions) most of the modeset state is protected
	by the <code>dev-&lt;mode_config.lock</code> mutex and additionally
	per-crtc locks to allow cursor updates, pageflips and similar operations
	to occur concurrently with background tasks like output detection.
	Operations which cross domains like a full modeset always grab all
	locks. Drivers there need to protect resources shared between crtcs with
	additional locking. They also need to be careful to always grab the
	relevant crtc locks if a modset functions touches crtc state, e.g. for
	load detection (which does only grab the <code>mode_config.lock</code>
	to allow concurrent screen updates on live crtcs).

    <title>KMS Initialization and Cleanup</title>
    <para>
      A KMS device is abstracted and exposed as a set of planes, CRTCs, encoders
      and connectors. KMS drivers must thus create and initialize all those
      objects at load time after initializing mode setting.

      <title>CRTCs (struct <structname>drm_crtc</structname>)</title>
      <para>
        A CRTC is an abstraction representing a part of the chip that contains a
	pointer to a scanout buffer. Therefore, the number of CRTCs available
	determines how many independent scanout buffers can be active at any
	given time. The CRTC structure contains several fields to support this:
	a pointer to some video memory (abstracted as a frame buffer object), a
	display mode, and an (x, y) offset into the video memory to support
	panning or configurations where one piece of video memory spans multiple
	CRTCs.

          Cursor and overlay planes are optional.  All drivers should provide
          one primary plane per CRTC (although this requirement may change in
          the future); drivers that do not wish to provide special handling for
          primary planes may make use of the helper functions described in
          <xref linkend="drm-kms-planehelpers"/> to create and register a
          primary plane with standard capabilities.

    <para>
1547
      The plane, CRTC, encoder and connector functions provided by the drivers
1548 1549 1550 1551 1552 1553 1554
      implement the DRM API. They're called by the DRM core and ioctl handlers
      to handle device state changes and configuration request. As implementing
      those functions often requires logic not specific to drivers, mid-layer
      helper functions are available to avoid duplicating boilerplate code.
    </para>
    <para>
      The DRM core contains one mid-layer implementation. The mid-layer provides
1555 1556
      implementations of several plane, CRTC, encoder and connector functions
      (called from the top of the mid-layer) that pre-process requests and call
1557 1558 1559 1560 1561 1562 1563
      lower-level functions provided by the driver (at the bottom of the
      mid-layer). For instance, the
      <function>drm_crtc_helper_set_config</function> function can be used to
      fill the struct <structname>drm_crtc_funcs</structname>
      <structfield>set_config</structfield> field. When called, it will split
      the <methodname>set_config</methodname> operation in smaller, simpler
      operations and call the driver to handle them.
1564 1565
    </para>
    <para>
1566 1567 1568 1569 1570 1571 1572 1573 1574
      To use the mid-layer, drivers call <function>drm_crtc_helper_add</function>,
      <function>drm_encoder_helper_add</function> and
      <function>drm_connector_helper_add</function> functions to install their
      mid-layer bottom operations handlers, and fill the
      <structname>drm_crtc_funcs</structname>,
      <structname>drm_encoder_funcs</structname> and
      <structname>drm_connector_funcs</structname> structures with pointers to
      the mid-layer top API functions. Installing the mid-layer bottom operation
      handlers is best done right after registering the corresponding KMS object.
1575 1576
    </para>
    <para>
1577 1578 1579
      The mid-layer is not split between CRTC, encoder and connector operations.
      To use it, a driver must provide bottom functions for all of the three KMS
      entities.

    <para>
      Drivers may need to expose additional parameters to applications than
      those described in the previous sections. KMS supports attaching
      properties to CRTCs, connectors and planes and offers a userspace API to
      list, get and set the property values.
    </para>
    <para>
      Properties are identified by a name that uniquely defines the property

      properties the value is a 64-bit unsigned integer.
    </para>
    <para>
      KMS differentiates between properties and property instances. Drivers
      first create properties and then create and associate individual instances
      of those properties to objects. A property can be instantiated multiple
      times and associated with different objects. Values are stored in property
1713
      instances, and all other property information are stored in the property

      Properties can additionally be created as immutable, in which case they
      will be read-only for applications but can be modified by the driver. To
      create an immutable property drivers must set the DRM_MODE_PROP_IMMUTABLE
      flag at property creation time.
    </para>
    <para>
      When no array of value-name pairs is readily available at property
      creation time for enumerated or range properties, drivers can create
      the property using the <function>drm_property_create</function> function
      and manually add enumeration value-name pairs by calling the
      <function>drm_property_add_enum</function> function. Care must be taken to
      properly specify the property type through the <parameter>flags</parameter>
      argument.
    </para>
    <para>
      After creating properties drivers can attach property instances to CRTC,
      connector and plane objects by calling the
      <function>drm_object_attach_property</function>. The function takes a
      pointer to the target object, a pointer to the previously created property
      and an initial instance value.

    <title>Vertical Blanking</title>
    <para>
      Vertical blanking plays a major role in graphics rendering. To achieve
      tear-free display, users must synchronize page flips and/or rendering to
      vertical blanking. The DRM API offers ioctls to perform page flips
      synchronized to vertical blanking and wait for vertical blanking.
    </para>
    <para>
      The DRM core handles most of the vertical blanking management logic, which
      involves filtering out spurious interrupts, keeping race-free blanking
      counters, coping with counter wrap-around and resets and keeping use
      counts. It relies on the driver to generate vertical blanking interrupts
      and optionally provide a hardware vertical blanking counter. Drivers must
      implement the following operations.
    </para>
    <itemizedlist>
      <listitem>
        <synopsis>int (*enable_vblank) (struct drm_device *dev, int crtc);
void (*disable_vblank) (struct drm_device *dev, int crtc);</synopsis>
        <para>
	  Enable or disable vertical blanking interrupts for the given CRTC.
	</para>
      </listitem>
      <listitem>
        <synopsis>u32 (*get_vblank_counter) (struct drm_device *dev, int crtc);</synopsis>
        <para>
	  Retrieve the value of the vertical blanking counter for the given
	  CRTC. If the hardware maintains a vertical blanking counter its value
	  should be returned. Otherwise drivers can use the
	  <function>drm_vblank_count</function> helper function to handle this
	  operation.
	</para>

2837 2838 2839 2840 2841 2842 2843 2844 2845 2846
      Drivers must initialize the vertical blanking handling core with a call to
      <function>drm_vblank_init</function> in their
      <methodname>load</methodname> operation. The function will set the struct
      <structname>drm_device</structname>
      <structfield>vblank_disable_allowed</structfield> field to 0. This will
      keep vertical blanking interrupts enabled permanently until the first mode
      set operation, where <structfield>vblank_disable_allowed</structfield> is
      set to 1. The reason behind this is not clear. Drivers can set the field
      to 1 after <function>calling drm_vblank_init</function> to make vertical
      blanking interrupts dynamically managed from the beginning.
2847
    </para>
2848 2849 2850 2851 2852 2853 2854 2855 2856 2857 2858 2859 2860 2861 2862
    <para>
      Vertical blanking interrupts can be enabled by the DRM core or by drivers
      themselves (for instance to handle page flipping operations). The DRM core
      maintains a vertical blanking use count to ensure that the interrupts are
      not disabled while a user still needs them. To increment the use count,
      drivers call <function>drm_vblank_get</function>. Upon return vertical
      blanking interrupts are guaranteed to be enabled.
    </para>
    <para>
      To decrement the use count drivers call
      <function>drm_vblank_put</function>. Only when the use count drops to zero
      will the DRM core disable the vertical blanking interrupts after a delay
      by scheduling a timer. The delay is accessible through the vblankoffdelay
      module parameter or the <varname>drm_vblank_offdelay</varname> global
      variable and expressed in milliseconds. Its default value is 5000 ms.
2863
      Zero means never disable, and a negative value means disable immediately.
2864 2865 2866 2867 2868 2869
      Drivers may override the behaviour by setting the
      <structname>drm_device</structname>
      <structfield>vblank_disable_immediate</structfield> flag, which when set
      causes vblank interrupts to be disabled immediately regardless of the
      drm_vblank_offdelay value. The flag should only be set if there's a
      properly working hardware vblank counter present.
2870 2871 2872 2873 2874 2875 2876 2877 2878 2879 2880
    </para>
    <para>
      When a vertical blanking interrupt occurs drivers only need to call the
      <function>drm_handle_vblank</function> function to account for the
      interrupt.
    </para>
    <para>
      Resources allocated by <function>drm_vblank_init</function> must be freed
      with a call to <function>drm_vblank_cleanup</function> in the driver
      <methodname>unload</methodname> operation handler.

2901
      <para>
2902
        The <methodname>firstopen</methodname> method is called by the DRM core
2903 2904 2905 2906 2907
	for legacy UMS (User Mode Setting) drivers only when an application
	opens a device that has no other opened file handle. UMS drivers can
	implement it to acquire device resources. KMS drivers can't use the
	method and must acquire resources in the <methodname>load</methodname>
	method instead.
2908 2909
      </para>
      <para>
2910 2911 2912 2913 2914
	Similarly the <methodname>lastclose</methodname> method is called when
	the last application holding a file handle opened on the device closes
	it, for both UMS and KMS drivers. Additionally, the method is also
	called at module unload time or, for hot-pluggable devices, when the
	device is unplugged. The <methodname>firstopen</methodname> and
2915
	<methodname>lastclose</methodname> calls can thus be unbalanced.
2916 2917
      </para>
      <para>
2918 2919 2920 2921 2922 2923 2924 2925 2926 2927 2928 2929 2930 2931 2932 2933 2934 2935 2936 2937 2938 2939 2940 2941 2942
        The <methodname>open</methodname> method is called every time the device
	is opened by an application. Drivers can allocate per-file private data
	in this method and store them in the struct
	<structname>drm_file</structname> <structfield>driver_priv</structfield>
	field. Note that the <methodname>open</methodname> method is called
	before <methodname>firstopen</methodname>.
      </para>
      <para>
        The close operation is split into <methodname>preclose</methodname> and
	<methodname>postclose</methodname> methods. Drivers must stop and
	cleanup all per-file operations in the <methodname>preclose</methodname>
	method. For instance pending vertical blanking and page flip events must
	be cancelled. No per-file operation is allowed on the file handle after
	returning from the <methodname>preclose</methodname> method.
      </para>
      <para>
        Finally the <methodname>postclose</methodname> method is called as the
	last step of the close operation, right before calling the
	<methodname>lastclose</methodname> method if no other open file handle
	exists for the device. Drivers that have allocated per-file private data
	in the <methodname>open</methodname> method should free it here.
      </para>
      <para>
        The <methodname>lastclose</methodname> method should restore CRTC and
	plane properties to default value, so that a subsequent open of the
2943 2944
	device will not inherit state from the previous user. It can also be
	used to execute delayed power switching state changes, e.g. in
2945 2946 2947 2948 2949
	conjunction with the vga_switcheroo infrastructure (see
	<xref linkend="vga_switcheroo"/>). Beyond that KMS drivers should not
	do any further cleanup. Only legacy UMS drivers might need to clean up
	device state so that the vga console or an independent fbdev driver
	could take over.

      <para>
	The DRM core provides some suspend/resume code, but drivers wanting full
	suspend/resume support should provide save() and restore() functions.
	These are called at suspend, hibernate, or resume time, and should perform
	any state save or restore required by your device across suspend or
	hibernate states.

      <para>
	Those are legacy suspend and resume methods which
	<emphasis>only</emphasis> work with the legacy shadow-attach driver
	registration functions. New driver should use the power management
	interface provided by their bus type (usually through
	the struct <structname>device_driver</structname> dev_pm_ops) and set
	these methods to NULL.

<!-- TODO

- Add a glossary
- Document the struct_mutex catch-all lock
- Document connector properties

- Why is the load method optional?
- What are drivers supposed to set the initial display state to, and how?
  Connector's DPMS states are not initialized and are thus equal to
  DRM_MODE_DPMS_ON. The fbcon compatibility layer calls
  drm_helper_disable_unused_functions(), which disables unused encoders and
  CRTCs, but doesn't touch the connectors' DPMS state, and
  drm_helper_connector_dpms() in reaction to fbdev blanking events. Do drivers
  that don't implement (or just don't use) fbcon compatibility need to call
  those functions themselves?
- KMS drivers must call drm_vblank_pre_modeset() and drm_vblank_post_modeset()
  around mode setting. Should this be done in the DRM core?
- vblank_disable_allowed is set to 1 in the first drm_vblank_post_modeset()
  call and never set back to 0. It seems to be safe to permanently set it to 1
  in drm_vblank_init() for KMS driver, and it might be safe for UMS drivers as
  well. This should be investigated.
- crtc and connector .save and .restore operations are only used internally in
  drivers, should they be removed from the core?
- encoder mid-layer .save and .restore operations are only used internally in
  drivers, should they be removed from the core?
- encoder mid-layer .detect operation is only used internally in drivers,
  should it be removed from the core?

    <sect1>
      <title>Render nodes</title>
      <para>
        DRM core provides multiple character-devices for user-space to use.
        Depending on which device is opened, user-space can perform a different
        set of operations (mainly ioctls). The primary node is always created
3112 3113
        and called card&lt;num&gt;. Additionally, a currently
        unused control node, called controlD&lt;num&gt; is also
3114 3115 3116 3117 3118 3119 3120 3121 3122 3123 3124 3125 3126 3127
        created. The primary node provides all legacy operations and
        historically was the only interface used by userspace. With KMS, the
        control node was introduced. However, the planned KMS control interface
        has never been written and so the control node stays unused to date.
      </para>
      <para>
        With the increased use of offscreen renderers and GPGPU applications,
        clients no longer require running compositors or graphics servers to
        make use of a GPU. But the DRM API required unprivileged clients to
        authenticate to a DRM-Master prior to getting GPU access. To avoid this
        step and to grant clients GPU access without authenticating, render
        nodes were introduced. Render nodes solely serve render clients, that
        is, no modesetting or privileged ioctls can be issued on render nodes.
        Only non-global rendering commands are allowed. If a driver supports
3128
        render nodes, it must advertise it via the DRIVER_RENDER
3129 3130 3131 3132 3133 3134
        DRM driver capability. If not supported, the primary node must be used
        for render clients together with the legacy drmAuth authentication
        procedure.
      </para>
      <para>
        If a driver advertises render node support, DRM core will create a
3135
        separate render node called renderD&lt;num&gt;. There will
3136
        be one render node per device. No ioctls except  PRIME-related ioctls
3137
        will be allowed on this node. Especially GEM_OPEN will be
3138 3139 3140 3141
        explicitly prohibited. Render nodes are designed to avoid the
        buffer-leaks, which occur if clients guess the flink names or mmap
        offsets on the legacy interface. Additionally to this basic interface,
        drivers must mark their driver-dependent render-only ioctls as
3142
        DRM_RENDER_ALLOW so render clients can use them. Driver
3143 3144 3145 3146 3147 3148 3149 3150 3151 3152 3153 3154 3155 3156 3157 3158 3159 3160 3161 3162 3163 3164 3165 3166
        authors must be careful not to allow any privileged ioctls on render
        nodes.
      </para>
      <para>
        With render nodes, user-space can now control access to the render node
        via basic file-system access-modes. A running graphics server which
        authenticates clients on the privileged primary/legacy node is no longer
        required. Instead, a client can open the render node and is immediately
        granted GPU access. Communication between clients (or servers) is done
        via PRIME. FLINK from render node to legacy node is not supported. New
        clients must not use the insecure FLINK interface.
      </para>
      <para>
        Besides dropping all modeset/global ioctls, render nodes also drop the
        DRM-Master concept. There is no reason to associate render clients with
        a DRM-Master as they are independent of any graphics server. Besides,
        they must work without any running master, anyway.
        Drivers must be able to run without a master object if they support
        render nodes. If, on the other hand, a driver requires shared state
        between clients which is visible to user-space and accessible beyond
        open-file boundaries, they cannot support render nodes.

	  This section documents the interface function for shrinking memory
	  usage of buffer object caches. Shrinking is used to make main memory
	  available.  Note that this is mostly orthogonal to evicting buffer
