[PATCH v11 2/9] drm/panic: Add a drm panic handler

Thu Mar 28 12:03:44 UTC 2024


This module displays a user friendly message when a kernel panic
occurs. It currently doesn't contain any debug information,
but that can be added later.

v2
 * Use get_scanout_buffer() instead of the drm client API.
  (Thomas Zimmermann)
 * Add the panic reason to the panic message (Nerdopolis)
 * Add an exclamation mark (Nerdopolis)

v3
 * Rework the drawing functions, to write the pixels line by line and
 to use the drm conversion helper to support other formats.
 (Thomas Zimmermann)

v4
 * Use drm_fb_r1_to_32bit for fonts (Thomas Zimmermann)
 * Remove the default y to DRM_PANIC config option (Thomas Zimmermann)
 * Add foreground/background color config option
 * Fix the bottom lines not painted if the framebuffer height
   is not a multiple of the font height.
 * Automatically register the device to drm_panic, if the function
   get_scanout_buffer exists. (Thomas Zimmermann)

v5
 * Change the drawing API, use drm_fb_blit_from_r1() to draw the font.
 * Also add drm_fb_fill() to fill area with background color.
 * Add draw_pixel_xy() API for drivers that can't provide a linear buffer.
 * Add a flush() callback for drivers that needs to synchronize the buffer.
 * Add a void *private field, so drivers can pass private data to
   draw_pixel_xy() and flush().

v6
 * Fix sparse warning for panic_msg and logo.

v7
 * Add select DRM_KMS_HELPER for the color conversion functions.

v8
 * Register directly each plane to the panic notifier (Sima)
 * Add raw_spinlock to properly handle concurrency (Sima)
 * Register plane instead of device, to avoid looping through plane
   list, and simplify code.
 * Replace get_scanout_buffer() logic with drm_panic_set_buffer()
  (Thomas Zimmermann)
 * Removed the draw_pixel_xy() API, will see later if it can be added back.

v9
 * Revert to using get_scanout_buffer() (Sima)
 * Move get_scanout_buffer() and panic_flush() to the plane helper
   functions (Thomas Zimmermann)
 * Register all planes with get_scanout_buffer() to the panic notifier
 * Use drm_panic_lock() to protect against race (Sima)

v10
 * Move blit and fill functions back in drm_panic (Thomas Zimmermann).
 * Simplify the text drawing functions.
 * Use kmsg_dumper instead of panic_notifier (Sima).

+/**
+ * DOC: overview
+ *
+ * To enable DRM panic for a driver, the primary plane must implement a
+ * get_scanout_buffer() helper function. It is then automatically registered to
+ * the drm panic handler.
+ * When a panic occurs, the get_scanout_buffer() will be called, and the driver
+ * can provide a framebuffer so the panic handler can draw the panic screen on
+ * it. The buffer provided must be linear, and use a supported color format.
+ * Optionally the driver can also provide a panic_flush() callback, that will
+ * be called after that, to send additional commands to the hardware to make the
+ * scanout buffer visible.
+ */
+
+/*
+ * This module displays a user friendly message on screen when a kernel panic
+ * occurs. This is conflicting with fbcon, so you can only enable it when fbcon
+ * is disabled.
+ * It's intended for end-user, so have minimal technical/debug information.
+ *
+ * Implementation details:
+ *
+ * It is a panic handler, so it can't take lock, allocate memory, run tasks/irq,
+ * or attempt to sleep. It's a best effort, and it may not be able to display
+ * the message in all situations (like if the panic occurs in the middle of a
+ * modesetting).
+ * It will display only one static frame, so performance optimizations are low
+ * priority as the machine is already in an unusable state.
