-=========================
-OMAP2/3 Display Subsystem
-=========================
-
-This is an almost total rewrite of the OMAP FB driver in drivers/video/omap
-(let's call it DSS1). The main differences between DSS1 and DSS2 are DSI,
-TV-out and multiple display support, but there are lots of small improvements
-also.
-
-The DSS2 driver (omapdss module) is in arch/arm/plat-omap/dss/, and the FB,
-panel and controller drivers are in drivers/video/omap2/. DSS1 and DSS2 live
-currently side by side, you can choose which one to use.
-
-Features
---------
-
-Working and tested features include:
-
-- MIPI DPI (parallel) output
-- MIPI DSI output in command mode
-- MIPI DBI (RFBI) output
-- SDI output
-- TV output
-- All pieces can be compiled as a module or inside kernel
-- Use DISPC to update any of the outputs
-- Use CPU to update RFBI or DSI output
-- OMAP DISPC planes
-- RGB16, RGB24 packed, RGB24 unpacked
-- YUV2, UYVY
-- Scaling
-- Adjusting DSS FCK to find a good pixel clock
-- Use DSI DPLL to create DSS FCK
-
-Tested boards include:
-- OMAP3 SDP board
-- Beagle board
-- N810
-
-omapdss driver
---------------
-
-The DSS driver does not itself have any support for Linux framebuffer, V4L or
-such like the current ones, but it has an internal kernel API that upper level
-drivers can use.
-
-The DSS driver models OMAP's overlays, overlay managers and displays in a
-flexible way to enable non-common multi-display configuration. In addition to
-modelling the hardware overlays, omapdss supports virtual overlays and overlay
-managers. These can be used when updating a display with CPU or system DMA.
-
-omapdss driver support for audio
---------------------------------
-There exist several display technologies and standards that support audio as
-well. Hence, it is relevant to update the DSS device driver to provide an audio
-interface that may be used by an audio driver or any other driver interested in
-the functionality.
-
-The audio_enable function is intended to prepare the relevant
-IP for playback (e.g., enabling an audio FIFO, taking in/out of reset
-some IP, enabling companion chips, etc). It is intended to be called before
-audio_start. The audio_disable function performs the reverse operation and is
-intended to be called after audio_stop.
-
-While a given DSS device driver may support audio, it is possible that for
-certain configurations audio is not supported (e.g., an HDMI display using a
-VESA video timing). The audio_supported function is intended to query whether
-the current configuration of the display supports audio.
-
-The audio_config function is intended to configure all the relevant audio
-parameters of the display. In order to make the function independent of any
-specific DSS device driver, a struct omap_dss_audio is defined. Its purpose
-is to contain all the required parameters for audio configuration. At the
-moment, such structure contains pointers to IEC-60958 channel status word
-and CEA-861 audio infoframe structures. This should be enough to support
-HDMI and DisplayPort, as both are based on CEA-861 and IEC-60958.
-
-The audio_enable/disable, audio_config and audio_supported functions could be
-implemented as functions that may sleep. Hence, they should not be called
-while holding a spinlock or a readlock.
-
-The audio_start/audio_stop function is intended to effectively start/stop audio
-playback after the configuration has taken place. These functions are designed
-to be used in an atomic context. Hence, audio_start should return quickly and be
-called only after all the needed resources for audio playback (audio FIFOs,
-DMA channels, companion chips, etc) have been enabled to begin data transfers.
-audio_stop is designed to only stop the audio transfers. The resources used
-for playback are released using audio_disable.
-
-The enum omap_dss_audio_state may be used to help the implementations of
-the interface to keep track of the audio state. The initial state is _DISABLED;
-then, the state transitions to _CONFIGURED, and then, when it is ready to
-play audio, to _ENABLED. The state _PLAYING is used when the audio is being
-rendered.
-
-
-Panel and controller drivers
-----------------------------
-
-The drivers implement panel or controller specific functionality and are not
-usually visible to users except through omapfb driver. They register
-themselves to the DSS driver.
-
-omapfb driver
--------------
-
-The omapfb driver implements arbitrary number of standard linux framebuffers.
-These framebuffers can be routed flexibly to any overlays, thus allowing very
-dynamic display architecture.
-
-The driver exports some omapfb specific ioctls, which are compatible with the
-ioctls in the old driver.
-
-The rest of the non standard features are exported via sysfs. Whether the final
-implementation will use sysfs, or ioctls, is still open.
-
-V4L2 drivers
-------------
-
-V4L2 is being implemented in TI.
-
-From omapdss point of view the V4L2 drivers should be similar to framebuffer
-driver.
-
-Architecture
---------------------
-
-Some clarification what the different components do:
-
- - Framebuffer is a memory area inside OMAP's SRAM/SDRAM that contains the
- pixel data for the image. Framebuffer has width and height and color
- depth.
- - Overlay defines where the pixels are read from and where they go on the
- screen. The overlay may be smaller than framebuffer, thus displaying only
- part of the framebuffer. The position of the overlay may be changed if
- the overlay is smaller than the display.
- - Overlay manager combines the overlays in to one image and feeds them to
- display.
- - Display is the actual physical display device.
-
-A framebuffer can be connected to multiple overlays to show the same pixel data
-on all of the overlays. Note that in this case the overlay input sizes must be
-the same, but, in case of video overlays, the output size can be different. Any
-framebuffer can be connected to any overlay.
-
-An overlay can be connected to one overlay manager. Also DISPC overlays can be
-connected only to DISPC overlay managers, and virtual overlays can be only
-connected to virtual overlays.
-
-An overlay manager can be connected to one display. There are certain
-restrictions which kinds of displays an overlay manager can be connected:
-
- - DISPC TV overlay manager can be only connected to TV display.
- - Virtual overlay managers can only be connected to DBI or DSI displays.
- - DISPC LCD overlay manager can be connected to all displays, except TV
- display.
-
-Sysfs
------
-The sysfs interface is mainly used for testing. I don't think sysfs
-interface is the best for this in the final version, but I don't quite know
-what would be the best interfaces for these things.
-
-The sysfs interface is divided to two parts: DSS and FB.
-

-mirror 0=off, 1=on

-Examples
---------
-
-The following definitions have been made for the examples below::
-
- ovl0=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay0
- ovl1=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay1
- ovl2=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay2
-
- mgr0=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/manager0
- mgr1=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/manager1
-
- lcd=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/display0
- dvi=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/display1
- tv=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/display2
-
- fb0=/sys/class/graphics/fb0
- fb1=/sys/class/graphics/fb1
- fb2=/sys/class/graphics/fb2
-
-Default setup on OMAP3 SDP
---------------------------
-
-Here's the default setup on OMAP3 SDP board. All planes go to LCD. DVI
-and TV-out are not in use. The columns from left to right are:
-framebuffers, overlays, overlay managers, displays. Framebuffers are
-handled by omapfb, and the rest by the DSS::
-
- FB0 --- GFX -\ DVI
- FB1 --- VID1 --+- LCD ---- LCD
- FB2 --- VID2 -/ TV ----- TV
-
-Example: Switch from LCD to DVI
--------------------------------
-
-::
-
- w=`cat $dvi/timings | cut -d "," -f 2 | cut -d "/" -f 1`
- h=`cat $dvi/timings | cut -d "," -f 3 | cut -d "/" -f 1`
-
- echo "0" > $lcd/enabled
- echo "" > $mgr0/display
- fbset -fb /dev/fb0 -xres $w -yres $h -vxres $w -vyres $h
- # at this point you have to switch the dvi/lcd dip-switch from the omap board
- echo "dvi" > $mgr0/display
- echo "1" > $dvi/enabled
-
-After this the configuration looks like:::
-
- FB0 --- GFX -\ -- DVI
- FB1 --- VID1 --+- LCD -/ LCD
- FB2 --- VID2 -/ TV ----- TV
-
-Example: Clone GFX overlay to LCD and TV
-----------------------------------------
-
-::
-
- w=`cat $tv/timings | cut -d "," -f 2 | cut -d "/" -f 1`
- h=`cat $tv/timings | cut -d "," -f 3 | cut -d "/" -f 1`
-
- echo "0" > $ovl0/enabled
- echo "0" > $ovl1/enabled
-
- echo "" > $fb1/overlays
- echo "0,1" > $fb0/overlays
-
- echo "$w,$h" > $ovl1/output_size
- echo "tv" > $ovl1/manager
-
- echo "1" > $ovl0/enabled
- echo "1" > $ovl1/enabled
-
- echo "1" > $tv/enabled
-
-After this the configuration looks like (only relevant parts shown)::
-
- FB0 +-- GFX ---- LCD ---- LCD
- \- VID1 ---- TV ---- TV
-
-Misc notes
-----------
-
-OMAP FB allocates the framebuffer memory using the standard dma allocator. You
-can enable Contiguous Memory Allocator (CONFIG_CMA) to improve the dma
-allocator, and if CMA is enabled, you use "cma=" kernel parameter to increase
-the global memory area for CMA.
-
-Using DSI DPLL to generate pixel clock it is possible produce the pixel clock
-of 86.5MHz (max possible), and with that you get 1280x1024@57 output from DVI.
-
-Rotation and mirroring currently only supports RGB565 and RGB8888 modes. VRFB
-does not support mirroring.
-
-VRFB rotation requires much more memory than non-rotated framebuffer, so you
-probably need to increase your vram setting before using VRFB rotation. Also,
-many applications may not work with VRFB if they do not pay attention to all
-framebuffer parameters.
-
-Kernel boot arguments
----------------------
-
-omapfb.mode=<display>:<mode>[,...]
- - Default video mode for specified displays. For example,
- "dvi:800x400MR-24@60". See drivers/video/modedb.c.
- There are also two special modes: "pal" and "ntsc" that
- can be used to tv out.
-
-omapfb.vram=<fbnum>:<size>[@<physaddr>][,...]
- - VRAM allocated for a framebuffer. Normally omapfb allocates vram
- depending on the display size. With this you can manually allocate
- more or define the physical address of each framebuffer. For example,
- "1:4M" to allocate 4M for fb1.
-
-omapfb.debug=<y|n>
- - Enable debug printing. You have to have OMAPFB debug support enabled
- in kernel config.
-
-omapfb.test=<y|n>
- - Draw test pattern to framebuffer whenever framebuffer settings change.
- You need to have OMAPFB debug support enabled in kernel config.
-
-omapfb.vrfb=<y|n>
- - Use VRFB rotation for all framebuffers.
-
-omapfb.rotate=<angle>
- - Default rotation applied to all framebuffers.
- 0 - 0 degree rotation
- 1 - 90 degree rotation
- 2 - 180 degree rotation
- 3 - 270 degree rotation
-
-omapfb.mirror=<y|n>
- - Default mirror for all framebuffers. Only works with DMA rotation.
-
-omapdss.def_disp=<display>
- - Name of default display, to which all overlays will be connected.
- Common examples are "lcd" or "tv".
-
-omapdss.debug=<y|n>
- - Enable debug printing. You have to have DSS debug support enabled in
- kernel config.

-=====================
-The OMAP PM interface
-=====================
-
-This document describes the temporary OMAP PM interface. Driver
-authors use these functions to communicate minimum latency or
-throughput constraints to the kernel power management code.
-Over time, the intention is to merge features from the OMAP PM
-interface into the Linux PM QoS code.
-
-Drivers need to express PM parameters which:
-
-- support the range of power management parameters present in the TI SRF;
-
-- separate the drivers from the underlying PM parameter
- implementation, whether it is the TI SRF or Linux PM QoS or Linux
- latency framework or something else;
-
-- specify PM parameters in terms of fundamental units, such as
- latency and throughput, rather than units which are specific to OMAP
- or to particular OMAP variants;
-
-- allow drivers which are shared with other architectures (e.g.,
- DaVinci) to add these constraints in a way which won't affect non-OMAP
- systems,
-
-- can be implemented immediately with minimal disruption of other
- architectures.
-
-
-This document proposes the OMAP PM interface, including the following
-five power management functions for driver code:
-
-1. Set the maximum MPU wakeup latency::
-
- (*pdata->set_max_mpu_wakeup_lat)(struct device *dev, unsigned long t)
-
-2. Set the maximum device wakeup latency::
-
- (*pdata->set_max_dev_wakeup_lat)(struct device *dev, unsigned long t)
-
-3. Set the maximum system DMA transfer start latency (CORE pwrdm)::
-
- (*pdata->set_max_sdma_lat)(struct device *dev, long t)
-
-4. Set the minimum bus throughput needed by a device::
-
- (*pdata->set_min_bus_tput)(struct device *dev, u8 agent_id, unsigned long r)
-
-5. Return the number of times the device has lost context::
-
- (*pdata->get_dev_context_loss_count)(struct device *dev)
-
-
-Further documentation for all OMAP PM interface functions can be
-found in arch/arm/plat-omap/include/mach/omap-pm.h.
-
-
-The OMAP PM layer is intended to be temporary
----------------------------------------------
-
-The intention is that eventually the Linux PM QoS layer should support
-the range of power management features present in OMAP3. As this
-happens, existing drivers using the OMAP PM interface can be modified
-to use the Linux PM QoS code; and the OMAP PM interface can disappear.
-
-
-Driver usage of the OMAP PM functions
--------------------------------------
-
-As the 'pdata' in the above examples indicates, these functions are
-exposed to drivers through function pointers in driver .platform_data
-structures. The function pointers are initialized by the `board-*.c`
-files to point to the corresponding OMAP PM functions:
-
-- set_max_dev_wakeup_lat will point to
- omap_pm_set_max_dev_wakeup_lat(), etc. Other architectures which do
- not support these functions should leave these function pointers set
- to NULL. Drivers should use the following idiom::
-
- if (pdata->set_max_dev_wakeup_lat)
- (*pdata->set_max_dev_wakeup_lat)(dev, t);
-
-The most common usage of these functions will probably be to specify
-the maximum time from when an interrupt occurs, to when the device
-becomes accessible. To accomplish this, driver writers should use the
-set_max_mpu_wakeup_lat() function to constrain the MPU wakeup
-latency, and the set_max_dev_wakeup_lat() function to constrain the
-device wakeup latency (from clk_enable() to accessibility). For
-example::
-
- /* Limit MPU wakeup latency */
- if (pdata->set_max_mpu_wakeup_lat)
- (*pdata->set_max_mpu_wakeup_lat)(dev, tc);
-
- /* Limit device powerdomain wakeup latency */
- if (pdata->set_max_dev_wakeup_lat)
- (*pdata->set_max_dev_wakeup_lat)(dev, td);
-
- /* total wakeup latency in this example: (tc + td) */
-
-The PM parameters can be overwritten by calling the function again
-with the new value. The settings can be removed by calling the
-function with a t argument of -1 (except in the case of
-set_max_bus_tput(), which should be called with an r argument of 0).
-
-The fifth function above, omap_pm_get_dev_context_loss_count(),
-is intended as an optimization to allow drivers to determine whether the
-device has lost its internal context. If context has been lost, the
-driver must restore its internal context before proceeding.
-
-
-Other specialized interface functions
--------------------------------------
-
-The five functions listed above are intended to be usable by any
-device driver. DSPBridge and CPUFreq have a few special requirements.
-DSPBridge expresses target DSP performance levels in terms of OPP IDs.
-CPUFreq expresses target MPU performance levels in terms of MPU
-frequency. The OMAP PM interface contains functions for these
-specialized cases to convert that input information (OPPs/MPU
-frequency) into the form that the underlying power management
-implementation needs:
-
-6. `(*pdata->dsp_get_opp_table)(void)`
-
-7. `(*pdata->dsp_set_min_opp)(u8 opp_id)`
-
-8. `(*pdata->dsp_get_opp)(void)`
-
-9. `(*pdata->cpu_get_freq_table)(void)`
-
-10. `(*pdata->cpu_set_freq)(unsigned long f)`
-
-11. `(*pdata->cpu_get_freq)(void)`
-
-Customizing OPP for platform
-============================
-Defining CONFIG_PM should enable OPP layer for the silicon
-and the registration of OPP table should take place automatically.
-However, in special cases, the default OPP table may need to be
-tweaked, for e.g.:
-
- * enable default OPPs which are disabled by default, but which
- could be enabled on a platform
- * Disable an unsupported OPP on the platform
- * Define and add a custom opp table entry
- in these cases, the board file needs to do additional steps as follows:
-
-arch/arm/mach-omapx/board-xyz.c::
-
- #include "pm.h"
- ....
- static void __init omap_xyz_init_irq(void)
- {
- ....
- /* Initialize the default table */
- omapx_opp_init();
- /* Do customization to the defaults */
- ....
- }
-
-NOTE:
- omapx_opp_init will be omap3_opp_init or as required
- based on the omap family.
