drm/amdgpu: Convert tiling flags to modifiers on GFX6-8

2026-07-28T23:17:33+00:00

This is done for consistency between different GPU generations.

Tiling flags are "implicit modifiers" which are used on AMD GPUs
to let the kernel know the tiling information without modifiers.
Convert the tiling flags to modifers on GFX8 and older, so that
the DC display driver can rely on them like on newer generations.

Note that this code path will only be taken when DC actually
exposes any modifiers on GFX6-8, which is handled in a subsequent
commit after this one. This code path mainly exists for legacy
compositors which don't support explicit DRM format modifiers
and rely on the tiling flags, and for compatibility with old
Mesa that didn't support modifiers on GFX6-8.

Add amdgpu_display_verify_sizes_gfx6() to validate modifiers
on GFX6-8 and only accept the modes that the display driver
really supports, as well as validate the FB sizes.

Additionally adjust check_tiling_flags_gfx6() to allow the
LINEAR_GENERAL mode and disallow the ROTATED mode which has
never been supported by Mesa or Linux and was mistakenly
allowed previously.

drm/amdgpu: Move test for fbdev GEM object into generic helper

2026-03-06T21:31:35+00:00

Provide a generic helper that tests if fbdev emulation is backed by
a specific GEM object. Not all drivers use client buffers (yet), hence
also test against the first GEM object in the fbdev framebuffer.

Convert amdgpu. The helper will also be useful for radeon.

treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types

2026-02-21T09:02:28+00:00

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

drm/amd: Re-introduce property to control adaptive backlight modulation

2025-10-28T13:56:14+00:00

commit 0887054d14ae ("drm/amd: Drop abm_level property") dropped the
abm level property in favor of sysfs control. Since then there have
been discussions that compositors showed an interest in modifying
a vendor specific property instead.

So re-introduce the abm level property, but with different semantics.
Rather than being an integer it's now an enum. One of the enum options
is 'sysfs', and that is because there is still a sysfs file for use by
userspace when the compositor doesn't support this property.

If usespace has not modified this property, the default value will
be for sysfs to control it. Once userspace has set the property stop
allowing sysfs control.

The property is only attached to non-OLED eDP panels.

drm/amdgpu: Pass along the format info from .fb_create() to drm_helper_mode_fill_fb_struct()

drm: Allow the caller to pass in the format info to drm_helper_mode_fill_fb_struct()

2025-07-16T17:04:45+00:00

Soon all drivers should have the format info already available in the
places where they call drm_helper_mode_fill_fb_struct(). Allow it to
be passed along into drm_helper_mode_fill_fb_struct() instead of doing
yet another redundant lookup.

Start by always passing in NULL and still doing the extra lookup.
The actual changes to avoid the lookup will follow.
