[Why] DC configures the GSL group for the pipe when pipe_split is enabled and we're switching flip types (buffered <-> immediate flip) on DCN2. In order to record what GSL group the pipe is using DC stores it in the pipe's stream_res. DM is not aware of this internal grouping, nor is DC resource. So when DM creates a dc_state context and passes it to DC the current GSL group is lost - DM never knew about it in the first place. After 3 immediate flips we run out of GSL groups and we're no longer able to correctly perform *any* flip for multi-pipe scenarios. [How] The gsl_group needs to be copied to the new context. DM has no insight into GSL grouping and could even potentially create a brand new context without referencing current hardware state. So this makes the most sense to have happen in DC. There are two places where DC can apply a new context: - dc_commit_state - dc_commit_updates_for_stream But what's shared between both of these is apply_ctx_for_surface. This logic only matters for DCN2, so it can be placed in dcn20_apply_ctx_for_surface. Before doing any locking (where the GSL group is setup) we can copy over the GSL groups before committing the new context.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
