[PATCH v2 1/3] drm/vkms: Re-introduce line-by-line algorithm for writeback

Wed Aug 14 08:42:16 UTC 2024


Re-introduce a line-by-line writeback algorithm for each pixel format.
This allows more performance by not requiring an indirection per pixel
write.

Line-by-line writeback was introduced by [1] but rewritten back to
pixel-by-pixel algorithm in [2]. At this time, nobody noticed the impact
on performance, and it was merged.

This patch is almost a revert of [2], but with some effort to avoid code
duplication. Now only the loop is repeated, but it is required to have
good performances.

The performance gain is around 5 to 10%.
