drm 和 sysfs

DRM 全称是Direct Rendering Manager，进行显示输出管理、buffer 分配、帧缓冲。对应userspace 库为libdrm，libdrm 库提供了一系列友好的控制封装，使用户可以方便的进行显示的控制和buffer 申请。

DRM的设备节点为"/dev/dri/cardX"， X 为0-15 的数值，默认使用的是/dev/dri/card0。

CRTC	显示控制器，在rockchip 平台是SOC 内部VOP(部分文档也称为LCDC)模块的抽象
Plane	图层，在rockchip 平台是SOC 内部VOP(LCDC)模块win 图层的抽象
Encoder	输出转换器，指RGB、LVDS、DSI、eDP、HDMI、CVBS、VGA 等显示接口
Connector	连接器，指encoder 和panel 之间交互的接口部分
Bridge	桥接设备，一般用于注册encoder 后面另外再接的转换芯片，如DSI2HDMI 转换芯片
Panel	泛指屏，各种LCD、HDMI 等显示设备的抽象
GEM	buffer 管理和分配，类似android 下的ion

drm sysfs  初始化

/**
 * drm_sysfs_init - initialize sysfs helpers
 *
 * This is used to create the DRM class, which is the implicit parent of any
 * other top-level DRM sysfs objects.
 *
 * You must call drm_sysfs_destroy() to release the allocated resources.
 *
 * Return: 0 on success, negative error code on failure.
 */
int drm_sysfs_init(void)
{
	int err;

	drm_class = class_create(THIS_MODULE, "drm");//sys/class/drm
	if (IS_ERR(drm_class))
		return PTR_ERR(drm_class);

	err = class_create_file(drm_class, &class_attr_version.attr);
	if (err) {
		class_destroy(drm_class);
		drm_class = NULL;

connector 注册的时候会注册进去

static DEVICE_ATTR_RW(status);//显示器的连接状态
static DEVICE_ATTR_RO(enabled);//使能
static DEVICE_ATTR_RO(dpms);//dpms 
static DEVICE_ATTR_RO(modes);//分辨率

static struct attribute *connector_dev_attrs[] = {
	&dev_attr_status.attr,
	&dev_attr_enabled.attr,
	&dev_attr_dpms.attr,
	&dev_attr_modes.attr,
	NULL
};

static struct bin_attribute edid_attr = {
	.attr.name = "edid",
	.attr.mode = 0444,
	.size = 0,
	.read = edid_show,
};

static struct bin_attribute *connector_bin_attrs[] = {
	&edid_attr,
	NULL
};

static const struct attribute_group connector_dev_group = {
	.attrs = connector_dev_attrs,
	.bin_attrs = connector_bin_attrs,
};

static const struct attribute_group *connector_dev_groups[] = {
	&connector_dev_group,
	NULL
};

int drm_sysfs_connector_add(struct drm_connector *connector)
{
	struct drm_device *dev = connector->dev;

	if (connector->kdev)
		return 0;

	connector->kdev =
		device_create_with_groups(drm_class, dev->primary->kdev, 0,
					  connector, connector_dev_groups,
					  "card%d-%s", dev->primary->index,
					  connector->name);
	DRM_DEBUG("adding \"%s\" to sysfs\n",
		  connector->name);

	if (IS_ERR(connector->kdev)) {
		DRM_ERROR("failed to register connector device: %ld\n", PTR_ERR(connector->kdev));
		return PTR_ERR(connector->kdev);
	}

	if (connector->ddc)
		return sysfs_create_link(&connector->kdev->kobj,
				 &connector->ddc->dev.kobj, "ddc");
	return 0;
}

重要的2个show函数如下，显示器的edid和modes

static ssize_t modes_show(struct device *device,
			   struct device_attribute *attr,
			   char *buf)
{
	struct drm_connector *connector = to_drm_connector(device);
	struct drm_display_mode *mode;
	int written = 0;

	mutex_lock(&connector->dev->mode_config.mutex);
	list_for_each_entry(mode, &connector->modes, head) {
		written += snprintf(buf + written, PAGE_SIZE - written, "%s\n",
				    mode->name);
	}
	mutex_unlock(&connector->dev->mode_config.mutex);

	return written;
}

static ssize_t edid_show(struct file *filp, struct kobject *kobj,
			 struct bin_attribute *attr, char *buf, loff_t off,
			 size_t count)
{
	struct device *connector_dev = kobj_to_dev(kobj);
	struct drm_connector *connector = to_drm_connector(connector_dev);
	unsigned char *edid;
	size_t size;
	ssize_t ret = 0;

	mutex_lock(&connector->dev->mode_config.mutex);
	if (!connector->edid_blob_ptr)
		goto unlock;

	edid = connector->edid_blob_ptr->data;
	size = connector->edid_blob_ptr->length;
	if (!edid)
		goto unlock;

	if (off >= size)
		goto unlock;

	if (off + count > size)
		count = size - off;
	memcpy(buf, edid + off, count);

	ret = count;
unlock:
	mutex_unlock(&connector->dev->mode_config.mutex);

	return ret;
}
