[Why] On some compositors, with two monitors attached, VT terminal switch can cause a graphical issue by the following means: There are two streams, one for each monitor. Each stream has one plane current state: M1:S1->P1 M2:S2->P2 The user calls for a terminal switch and a commit is made to change both planes to linear swizzle mode. In atomic check, a new dc_state is constructed with new planes on each stream new state: M1:S1->P3 M2:S2->P4 In commit tail, each stream is committed, one at a time. The first stream (S1) updates properly, triggerring a full update and replacing the state current state: M1:S1->P3 M2:S2->P4 The update for S2 comes in, but dc detects that there is no difference between the stream and plane in the new and current states, and so triggers a fast update. The fast update does not program swizzle, so the second monitor is corrupted [How] Add a flag to dc_plane_state that forces full updates When a stream undergoes a full update, set this flag on all changed planes, then clear it on the current stream Subsequent streams will get full updates as a result Signed-off-by: David Francis <David.Francis@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Nicholas Kazlauskas <nicholas.kazlauskas@amd.com> Reviewed-by: Roman Li <Roman.Li@amd.com> Acked-by: Bhawanpreet Lakha <Bhawanpreet Lakha@amd.com> Acked-by: Nicholas Kazlauskas <Nicholas.Kazlauskas@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Alex Deucher <alexander.deucher@amd.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
