After commit 8ba1648567e2 ("drm: vkms: Refactor the plane composer to
accept new formats") the composition is no longer performed on top of
the primary plane, but instead on top of the CRTC, which means that
now we have a background.

This opens to the possibility of coloring the background with a
personalized color. Therefore, create a module parameter that takes a
unsigned int number as an XRGB8888 color and set the background
color to it. That said, the composition will be performed on top of
this background color. By default, the background color is black.

In order to test this functionality, I wrote some IGT tests to ensure that
it is working correctly [1]. The tests take the CRC of a colored primary
plane, offset the primary plane out of the screen, and take the CRC
of the colored background. The two CRC must be equal.

v1 -> v2 [2]

* Use XRGB8888 as input format to avoid compilation errors on PPC (kernel test robot)

I think this should be a KMS property instead of a module parameter.
Is there a reason why this patch uses a module parameter? It breaks
user-space expectations.

Hi Simon,

a KMS property is what we have on vkms TODO [1] and the module parameter
was Maíra's first step to open a discussion for this property [2].
AFAIK, we would need to create the KMS property first, but it seems
there isn't an userspace case/need to support this API change.
Do you know any valid use cases to support a bkg color property?

BR,

Melissa

There have been previous attempts for msm [1] and i915 [2].

From user-space PoV, a KMS property would be useful, for instance to
render single color background images. I can type some user-space code
if that helps.

If this is a module parameter instead of a KMS property, what purpose
does this achieve? What is the use-case? Just trying to understand the
motivation here.

Thanks,

Simon

Yeah the hold-up thus far was that no one ever came up with an actually
useful use in a compositor for this. Everyone seems happy with black, but
maybe with proper color rendering this is changing :-)

Just a step to get things going, occasionally that's needed ...

I believe that, if we have some user-space code, we can push this as a
KMS property. If you can provide some user-space code, I can work on
the KMS property to back the use case and we can move this forward.

This was a attempt to start the discussion about the background color
property. Without the user-space use case, we cannot move this forward
and as I didn't have a user-space use case, I decided to implement it as
a module parameter.
