[Intel-gfx] [PATCHv3] drm/i915: Support Async Flip on Linear buffers

Tue Sep 6 04:18:06 UTC 2022


Starting from Gen12 Async Flip is supported on linear buffers.
This patch enables support for async on linear buffer.

UseCase: In Hybrid graphics, for hardware unsupported pixel formats it
will be converted to linear memory and then composed.

v2: Added use case
v3: Added FIXME for ICL indicating the restrictions
