[PATCH v3 4/4] drm/vc4: Add a debugfs entry to disable/enable the load tracker

From: Paul Kocialkowski
Date: Tue Jan 08 2019 - 09:51:27 EST


In order to test whether the load tracker is working as expected, we
need the ability to compare the commit result with the underrun
indication. With the load tracker always enabled, commits that are
expected to trigger an underrun are always rejected, so userspace
cannot get the actual underrun indication from the hardware.

Add a debugfs entry to disable/enable the load tracker, so that a DRM
commit expected to trigger an underrun can go through with the load
tracker disabled. The underrun indication is then available to
userspace and can be checked against the commit result with the load
tracker enabled.

Changes since v3 (of the standalone patch):
* Added a comment for the load_tracker_enabled field;
* Moved the ->load_tracker_enabled initialization in vc4_kms_load();
* Moved the if (vc4->load_tracker_enabled) check in
vc4_load_tracker_atomic_check();
* Renamed the debugfs node to hvs_load_tracker to match hvs_underrun.

Changes since v2:
* Used the standard debugfs_create_bool instead of reinventing it.

Changes since v1:
* Moved all the debugfs-related functions and structure to vc4_debugfs.c.
