What I'm proposing is that we pick up dimensions X and Y as cut-off. Everything larger will use plane3, smaller - cursor. To determine X/Y I see two approaches: - based off the max cursor size exposed by DRM drivers - say Zx larger - consider the current resolution +/- delta We could also extrapolate that with the fact that most drivers expose and hence user-space handle cursor identical width and height.

We only figured out exactly what was going on a while after I wrote that message in the thread, but we did ultimately confirm the problem with the hardware architects. Sadly, all of the gen9 universal planes suffer from the slight blending issue and only the dedicated hardware cursor is immune because it has some special bypass logic. Specifically, you'd usually expect blending between two planes' pixels to give you a final color value of bottom * (1.0-alpha) + top * alpha However due to the way the alpha values are interpreted in the hardware, there's a problematic case when the top plane's pixel alpha is 0. You wind up getting bottom * (255/256) + top * 0 = .996 * bottom meaning pixels with a fully transparent plane above them are very slightly fainter than pixels that didn't go through blending. You'll pretty much only perceive the difference when you have transparent pixels at the edge of a plane (and even then only if you have a good monitor and good eyes). Of course "transparent pixels at the edge of plane" is pretty common when you're using the plane as a mouse pointer. You wind up with a faint ghost rectangle around your mouse pointer. :-( Matt > > Thanks again, > Emil -- Matt Roper Graphics Software Engineer IoTG Platform Enabling & Development Intel Corporation (916) 356-2795 ___ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel

Yet above you mention that universal planes have alpha blending defect. Did you confirm that with HW/simulation teams or is that based on the documentation?

PLANE_CURSOR is basically just an indication that that specific plane is the one that's also hooked up to the legacy cursor ioctls; like Ville says, it shouldn't directly indicate that the plane is less feature-capable than other planes. You can either detect the true capabilities of the cursor plane by checking for the presence/absence of other plane properties and/or experimenting with atomic TEST_ONLY commits to see what's really possible. The ideal solution for Intel gen9 hardware would have been to just never have the driver advertise or program the dedicated hardware cursor at all, but to instead expose the top-most universal plane to userspace, describe it as PLANE_CURSOR, and route the legacy cursor ioctl's to that plane instead. That would allow legacy cursor behavior to work as usual, but would also allow atomic userspace to use the plane in a more full-featured manner. I wrote patches to do exactly this a couple years ago, but sadly we discovered that the universal planes on gen9 have a slight alpha blending defect that the

Option 1 is pretty much the same thing with a slight hint for userspace that maybe the plane can do a bit more than just "cursory" things. The problem is that we have no actual definition of what these "cursory" things are. It's totally hardware/driver specific. Eg. i915 already allows you to do various things with the cursor plane that may not work on other hardware. Also I'm sure there's plenty of hardware out there with no special purpose cursor planes, so those drivers will probably just designate one regular plane as "the cursor" anyway. So I think we've been pretty much doing option 2 all along. So if some userspace wanted to it could just ignore the cursor type hint and try to use the plane in any way it sees fit. The usual rule of "try CHECK_ONLY and see it you get an error" applies here as well. If we did want to go for option 1 then I think it should take the form of some better defined plane capabilities. The problem is that there are alwayas tons of hardware specific exceptions so you wouldn't be able to blindly trust the caps anyway. -- Ville Syrjälä Intel ___ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
