Hi,

When the monitor wakes up it will eventually start drawing. From your
description seems to be a different issue. This (patch) relates to
Daniels' basic atomic modesetting patches that have landed in a few
weeks ago, and to me it seems you are (still) using the legacy KMS page
flip ioctl.

Yes, failing to queue page flips will lead a frozen image on the
screen.

Thanks, that's a good catch, but I do wonder how it wasn't getting
tripped up before. In previous releases, we'd call drm_set_dpms() from
anywhere, which would block on the update completing and then set the
DPMS level. I wonder if it's because we would receive a flip-done
event anyway and call weston_output_finish_frame() after the DPMS had
completed, which would drive us into repaint-idle.

Hi! I think I might have tripped that up before.

Or a different DPMS bug?
Does "wake up the output" here mean DPMS wake, or starting drawing to that 
output again?

One of my monitors, which is quite slow to wake up (AOC U2879VF) pretty often 
becomes frozen after waking up from DPMS.
While on the other monitor (an old NEC MultiSync) this problem never happened.
So like I could move the mouse and see the picture change on that monitor, but 
the first one was still displaying the frozen picture from before going to 
sleep.

The log lines were:

|[00:42:10.740] queueing pageflip failed: m [00:42:10.740] Couldn't apply 
state for output DP-2|

Indeed, I've submitted a previous patch because for timeline
instrumentation because of this. weston_output_finish_frame() is being
called with a NULL timestamp.

I don't know enough about the repaint machinery, should this be done
from drm_set_dpms() or from drm_output_update_complete()?. I'm hitting
some asserts in both cases, maybe I'm doing it wrong :/.

Thanks, that's a good catch, but I do wonder how it wasn't getting
tripped up before. In previous releases, we'd call drm_set_dpms() from
anywhere, which would block on the update completing and then set the
DPMS level. I wonder if it's because we would receive a flip-done
event anyway and call weston_output_finish_frame() after the DPMS had
completed, which would drive us into repaint-idle.

I suspect we should be calling finish_frame() to match that behaviour,
to indicate that the previous update has completed, and then
synchronously applying DPMS state. Pretending that
disable/destroy/DPMS-off can be called at any time is really biting
though. :(

Cheers,
Daniel

[PATCH weston] libweston/compositor-drm: Reset repaint scheduled status when setting DPMS level to off

[Marius Vlad]

Otherwise when setting dpms level DPMS_ON, weston_output_schedule_repaint()
will bail out early and never get a chance to wake up the output.

Arguably this could also be done in drm_set_dpms() when setting dpms_off_pending
but I figure it better to do it when deferred.
