Disable planes if they are on to be blanked CRTC and enable them when
the CRTC is turned back on by DMPS.

This is desirable on HW that loses its context on blanking. When
planes are enabled and disabled with the associated CRTCs, there is no
need to restore the plane context in runtime_resume callback.

We would need something like this to get rid off OMAPDSS somewhat
messy runtime_resume code. How does this look, could this generic
solution be refined to be acceptable to mainline, or should we start
looking a local solution to omapdrm?

BTW, with this patch the planes are sometimes disabled multiple
times. So probably a boolean (or maybe two like on crtc) should be
added to drm_plane_state to track and avoid multiple shutdowns.

The recommended way to do this is to call drm_atomic_add_affected_planes
from your crtc's atomic_check callback when active_changed is set. This
will also take care of enabling all planes again. For disabling we don't
yet have a helper yet, but it would be easy to create a
drm_atomic_helper_disable_planes(crtc) which just walks over all planes in
an atomic update that are currently using the given crtc and disables it
using plane_helper_funcs->atomic_disable. That would again require
drm_atomic_add_affected_planes to be called first.

This way current helper behaviour is unchanged, but it'd be easy to
construct the behaviour you want using helpers with
drm_atomic_add_affected_planes called from the crtc->disable hook.

I thought there was an rfc patch somewhere for this, but I can't find it
any more.

Cheers, Daniel

It appears that in the end these instructions were really all I needed.

There is only one thing that still bothers me. When implementing the 
feature you described above, I had a print in the code to see if it 
actually did anything. At first - because of my mistake - it did not, 
but the plane context was still restored just fine on drm_next and 
mainline linux. However the same omapdrm code did not restore the plane 
context on our 4.1 based Linux branch.

So something similar to what I tried to accomplish has been implemented 
some where between Linux 4.1 and 4.3?

Anyway, after back-porting the above fix works perfectly on our 4.1 
based branch.

Thanks,
Jyri

commit 57744aa7cfb5969c5a0621f4cfa45bb83d391064
Author: Maarten Lankhorst <maarten.lankhorst@linux.intel.com>
Date:   Tue May 19 16:41:03 2015 +0200

    drm/atomic: add all affected planes in drm_atomic_helper_check_modeset> 

is the commit I've forgotten about too ;-)

So the only thing left (I think) is some helper to disable all the planes
currently on the crtc, which drivers can use in their crtc->disable hook.
The enabling side is indeed already taken care of.

Cheers, Daniel
