Dear,
I use NVidia Geforce 7300GT graphics card in my PC, and Linux 3.1rc4 kernel code, git drm 2.4.36.
When I run the vbltest program, it prints "60HZ" which indicated the implementation of drmWaitVBlank() and drm_vblank_wait() is correct.
But when I run modetest with option " -v -s 12:1280x1024" , it prints high fresh rate up to "150 HZ" . I examing the code , and found that no waiting vblank operation is processed in nouveau_crtc_page_flip() function. The screen produced lots of garbage and blink very much.
int
nouveau_crtc_page_flip(struct drm_crtc *crtc, struct drm_framebuffer *fb,
struct drm_pending_vblank_event *event)
{
......
}
I study the i915 intel_crtc_page_flip implementation.
static int intel_crtc_page_flip(struct drm_crtc *crtc,
struct drm_framebuffer *fb,
struct drm_pending_vblank_event *event)
{
......
ret = drm_vblank_get(dev, intel_crtc->pipe);
if (ret)
goto cleanup_objs;
work->pending_flip_obj = obj;
work->enable_stall_check = true;
/* Block clients from rendering to the new back buffer until
* the flip occurs and the object is no longer visible.
*/
atomic_add(1 << intel_crtc->plane, &work->old_fb_obj->pending_flip);
ret = dev_priv->display.queue_flip(dev, crtc, fb, obj);
if (ret)
goto cleanup_pending;
......
}
after vblank irq acquired, the interrupt isr will wakup the runqueue.
6159 static void do_intel_finish_page_flip(struct drm_device *dev,
6160 struct drm_crtc *crtc)
6161 {
......
6211 list_add_tail(&e->base.link,
6212 &e->base.file_priv->event_list);
6213 wake_up_interruptible(&e->base.file_priv->event_wait);
6214 }
6215
6216 drm_vblank_put(dev, intel_crtc->pipe);
6217
Is there anyone use the same driver and found this issues can tell me "is it a bug"?
Thanks!
