For various reasons the hw state readout might not be able to faithfully match the hw state: - broken hw (like the case which motivated this patch here where the sdvo encoder does not implemented mandatory functionality correctly). - platforms which are not supported fully with the pipe config infrastructure - if our code doesn't support a given hw configuration natively, e.g. special restrictions on the per-pipe panel fitters when they're used in high-quality scaling modes. In all these cases both fastboot and the hw state cross checker need to be aware of these cases and act accordingly. To be able to do this add a new quirk flag to the pipe config structure. The specific case at hand is an sdvo encoder which doesn't implement the get_timings function, so adjusted_mode flags will be wrong. The strange thing though is that the encoder _does_ work, even though it doesn't implement any of the timings functions (so neither get nor set, neither for input nor output timings). Not that non-compliant sdvo encoder are any surprise at all ... v2: - Don't read random garbage from the dtd if the get_timings call failed (suggested by Chris). - Still check the interlaced flag, that's read out from someplace else. We want maximal paranoia, after all. Reviewed-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).
The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:
1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.
2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
restricted regions of memory.
3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
switch.
4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
Documentation on the DRI is available from:
