  drm: rcar-du: Register a completion callback with VSP1 (2017-05-08 15:14:38 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
The RCAR-DU utilises a running VSPD pipeline to perform processing for the
display pipeline. This presents the opportunity for some race conditions to
affect the quality of the display output.

To prevent reporting page flips early, we must track this timing through the
VSP1, and only allow the rcar-du object to report the page-flip completion
event after the VSP1 has processed.

This series ensures that tearing and flicker is prevented, without introducing
any (substantial) performance impact.

These patches have been tested by introducing artificial delays in the commit
code paths and verifying that no visual tearing or flickering occurs.

Extensive testing around the race window has been performed by dynamically
adapting the artificial delay between 15, and 17 seconds in 100uS increments
for periods of 5 seconds on each delay test. These tests have successfully run
for 3 hours.

Manual start/stop testing has also been performed.

Mauro: As this patchset covers two subsystems, and the DRM/DU side is dependant
upon the media/VSP side, If you are happy with these patches, Would it be
possible to get acks from you for integration through the DRM tree please?

Regards

Kieran

Thank you. Looks good and merges cleanly into today's linux-next.
Let's wait and see what happens one week from now ;-)

Thanks - hopefully a few more to come today, once they are tested properly.
Aiming to get all the old stuff that fell by the way back up to scratch.
