Merge branch 'drm-next-4.21' of git://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/linux into drm-next
New features for 4.21: amdgpu: - Support for SDMA paging queue on vega - Put compute EOP buffers into vram for better performance - Share more code with amdkfd - Support for scanout with DCC on gfx9 - Initial kerneldoc for DC - Updated SMU firmware support for gfx8 chips - Rework CSA handling for eventual support for preemption - XGMI PSP support - Clean up RLC handling - Enable GPU reset by default on VI, SOC15 dGPUs - Ring and IB test cleanups amdkfd: - Share more code with amdgpu ttm: - Move global init out of the drivers scheduler: - Track if schedulers are ready for work - Timeout/fault handling changes to facilitate GPU recovery Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com> From: Alex Deucher <alexdeucher@gmail.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20181114165113.3751-1-alexander.deucher@amd.com

+===================================
+drm/amd/display - Display Core (DC)
+===================================
+
+*placeholder - general description of supported platforms, what dc is, etc.*
+
+Because it is partially shared with other operating systems, the Display Core
+Driver is divided in two pieces.
+
+1. **Display Core (DC)** contains the OS-agnostic components. Things like
+ hardware programming and resource management are handled here.
+2. **Display Manager (DM)** contains the OS-dependent components. Hooks to the
+ amdgpu base driver and DRM are implemented here.
+
+It doesn't help that the entire package is frequently referred to as DC. But
+with the context in mind, it should be clear.
+
+When CONFIG_DRM_AMD_DC is enabled, DC will be initialized by default for
+supported ASICs. To force disable, set `amdgpu.dc=0` on kernel command line.
+Likewise, to force enable on unsupported ASICs, set `amdgpu.dc=1`.
+
+To determine if DC is loaded, search dmesg for the following entry:
+
+``Display Core initialized with <version number here>``
