drm/i915: Preload LUTs if the hw isn't currently using them
The LUTs are single buffered so in order to program them without tearing we'd have to do it during vblank (actually to be 100% effective it has to happen between start of vblank and frame start). We have no proper mechanism for that at the moment so we just defer loading them after the vblank waits have happened. That is not quite sufficient (especially when committing multiple pipes whose vblanks don't line up) so the LUT load will often leak into the following frame causing tearing. However in case the hardware wasn't previously using the LUT we can preload it before setting the enable bit (which is double buffered so won't tear). Let's determine if we can do such preloading and make it happen. Slight variation between the hardware requires some platforms specifics in the checks. Hans is seeing ugly colored flash on VLV/CHV macchines (GPD win and Asus T100HA) when the gamma LUT gets loaded for the first time as the BIOS has left some junk in the LUT memory. v2: Deal with uapi vs. hw crtc state split s/GCM/CGM/ typo fix Cc: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> Fixes: 051a6d8d ("drm/i915: Move LUT programming to happen after vblank waits") Signed-off-by: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20191030190815.7359-1-ville.syrjala@linux.intel.comTested-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> (cherry picked from commit 0ccc42a2) Signed-off-by: Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com>
