In the process of merging to the kernel, I renamed the driver to the
general product line's name (since we have both vc5 and vc6 supported
already). Since the ABI is finalized, move the header to include/drm-uapi.
This is the ABI I'm hoping to stabilize for merging the driver. seqnos
are eliminated, which allows for the GPU scheduler to task-switch between
DRM fds even after submission to the kernel. In/out sync objects are
introduced, to allow the Android fencing extension (not yet implemented,
but should be trivial), and to also allow the driver to tell the kernel to
not start a bin until a previous render is complete.
This matches the naming of the other hub regs we get, and I don't know for
sure if UIFCFG will be the same register between the hub and the cores on
all versions.
V3D 3.3 is a continuation of the 3D implementation in VC4 (v2.1 and v2.6).
V3D 3.3 introduces an MMU (no more CMA allocations) and support for
GLES3.1. This driver is not currently conformant, though that will be a
target as soon as possible.
V3D 3.x parts use a new texture tiling layout common across many Broadcom
graphics parts including and the HVS scanout engine. It also massively
changes the QPU instructions, introducing a common physical register file
(no more A/B split) and half-float instructions, while removing the 4x8
unorm instructions in favor of half-float for talking to fixed function
interfaces. Because so much has changed, vc5 is implemented in a separate
gallium driver, using only the XML code-generation support from vc4.
v2: Fix tile layout for 64bpp textures. Fix texture swizzling for 32-bit
returns. Fix up a bit of MRT setup. Sync the simulator to kernel
behavior a bit more. Improve uniform debugging code. Rebase on
QIR->VIR rename. Move texture state mostly to the CSOs. Improve
cache flushing on the simulator. Fix program deletion
use-after-frees.
