Hi Melissa,

that makes sense to me, for CRTCs. It would be really good to have that
as a diagram in the KMS UAPI documentation.

If someone wants to add a 3D LUT to KMS planes as well, then I'm not
sure if it should be this order or swapped. I will probably have an
opinion about that once Weston is fully HDR capable and has been tried
in the wild for a while with the HDR color operations fine-tuned based
on community feedback. IOW, not for a long time. The YUV to RGB
conversion factors in there as well.

Unfortunately I don't have the patch emails to reply to, so here's a
messy bunch of comments. I'll concentrate on the UAPI design as always.

+/*
+ * struct drm_mode_lut3d_mode - 3D LUT mode information.
+ * @lut_size: number of valid points on every dimension of 3D LUT.
+ * @lut_stride: number of points on every dimension of 3D LUT.
+ * @bit_depth: number of bits of RGB. If color_mode defines entries with higher
+ *             bit_depth the least significant bits will be truncated.
+ * @color_format: fourcc values, ex. DRM_FORMAT_XRGB16161616 or DRM_FORMAT_XBGR16161616.
+ * @flags: flags for hardware-sepcific features
+ */
+struct drm_mode_lut3d_mode {
+	__u16 lut_size;
+	__u16 lut_stride[3];
+	__u16 bit_depth;
+	__u32 color_format;
+	__u32 flags;
+};

Why is lut_stride an array of 3, but lut_size is not?

What is the color_mode the comment is referring to?

What is "number of bits of RGB"? Input precision? Output precision?
Integer or floating point?

Flags cannot be hardware specific, because it makes the whole KMS UAPI
hardware specific. That won't work. You have to have driver-agnostic
definitions for all possible flags.

Why is this the whole first patch? There is no documentation for the
UAPI on how this struct works, so I cannot review this. Explaining just
the individual fields is not enough to understand it. Is this something
the kernel fills in and is read-only to userspace? Is userspace filling
this in?


+ * “LUT3D”:
+ *	Blob property to set the 3D LUT mapping pixel data after the color
+ *	transformation matrix and before gamma 1D lut correction. The
+ *	data is interpreted as an array of &struct drm_color_lut elements.
+ *	Hardware might choose not to use the full precision of the LUT
+ *	elements.
+ *
+ *	Setting this to NULL (blob property value set to 0) means a the output
+ *	color is identical to the input color. This is generally the driver
+ *	boot-up state too. Drivers can access this blob through
+ *	&drm_crtc_state.gamma_lut.
+ *

You need to define how the 1-D array of drm_color_lut elements blob
will be interpreted as a 3-D array for the 3D LUT, and how the
dimensions match to the R, G and B channels. It's a bit like the
question about row-major or column-major storage for matrices, except
more complicated and not in those words.

+ * “LUT3D_MODE”:
+ *	Enum property to give the mode of the 3D lookup table to be set on the
+ *	LUT3D property. A mode specifies size, stride, bit depth and color
+ *	format and depends on the underlying hardware). If drivers support
+ *	multiple 3D LUT modes, they should be declared in a array of
+ *	drm_color_lut3d_mode and they will be advertised as an enum.

How does that work exactly? I didn't get it. I could guess, but having
to guess on API is bad.


+	/**
+	 * @lut3d:
+	 *
+	 * 3D Lookup table for converting pixel data. Position where it takes
+	 * place depends on hw design, after @ctm or @gamma_lut. See
+	 * drm_crtc_enable_color_mgmt(). The blob (if not NULL) is an array of
+	 * &struct drm_color_lut.
+	 */
+	struct drm_property_blob *lut3d;

I do not like the wording of "depends on hw design", and it is used in
very many places here. The KMS UAPI semantics cannot vary based on
hardware. Your cover letter defines the order in the color pipeline, so
I don't understand how this here can depend on hw.

What can depend on hardware is which KMS UAPI properties are exposed,
and how you map a property to a hardware unit (which can even change
based on the exact pipeline configuration as long as the results are as
the UAPI doc defines). But this comment here is talking about the UAPI
properties, not hw elements.


I'm happy that the 3D LUT interface is being developed, but as you can
see from my questions, the UAPI documentation is practically missing. I
would have no idea how to use this as is.


Thanks!
