Jeykumar Sankaran 25fdd5933e drm/msm: Add SDM845 DPU support
SDM845 SoC includes the Mobile Display Sub System (MDSS) which is a
top level wrapper consisting of Display Processing Unit (DPU) and
display peripheral modules such as Display Serial Interface (DSI)
and DisplayPort (DP).

MDSS functions essentially as a back-end composition engine. It blends
video and graphic images stored in the frame buffers and scans out the
composed image to a display sink (over DSI/DP).

The following diagram represents hardware blocks for a simple pipeline
(two planes are present on a given crtc which is connected to a DSI
connector):

      +---------------------------------+

The number of DPU sub-blocks (i.e. SSPPs, LMs, PP blocks and INTFs)
depends on SoC capabilities.

Overview of DPU sub-blocks:
---------------------------
* Source Surface Processor (SSPP):
 Refers to any of hardware pipes like ViG, DMA etc. Only ViG pipes are
 capable of performing format conversion, scaling and quality improvement
 for source surfaces.

* Layer Mixer (LM):
 Blend source surfaces together (in requested zorder)

* PingPong (PP):
 This block controls frame done interrupt output, EOL and EOF generation,
 overflow/underflow control.

* Display interface (INTF):
 Timing generator and interface connecting the display peripherals.

DRM components mapping to DPU architecture:
------------------------------------------
PLANEs maps to SSPPs
CRTC maps to LMs
Encoder maps to PPs, INTFs

Data flow setup:
---------------
MDSS hardware can support various data flows (e.g.):
  - Dual pipe: Output from two LMs combined to single display.
  - Split display: Output from two LMs connected to two separate
                   interfaces.

The hardware capabilities determine the number of concurrent data paths
possible. Any control path (i.e. pipeline w/i DPU) can be routed to any
of the hardware data paths. A given control path can be triggered,
flushed and controlled independently.

Changes in v3:
- Move msm_media_info.h from uapi to dpu/ subdir
- Remove preclose callback dpu (it's handled in core)
- Fix kbuild warnings with parent_ops
- Remove unused functions from dpu_core_irq
- Rename mdss_phys to mdss
- Rename mdp_phys address space to mdp
- Drop _phys from vbif and regdma binding names

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
