Re-introduce a line-by-line composition algorithm for each pixel format.
This allows more performance by not requiring an indirection per pixel
read. This patch is focused on readability of the code.
Line-by-line composition 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 in addition efforts have been
made to increase readability and maintainability of the rotation handling.
The blend function is now divided in two parts:
- Transformation of coordinates from the output referential to the source
referential
- Line conversion and blending
Most of the complexity of the rotation management is avoided by using
drm_rect_* helpers. The remaining complexity is around the clipping, to
avoid reading/writing outside source/destination buffers.
The pixel conversion is now done line-by-line, so the read_pixel_t was
replaced with read_pixel_line_t callback. This way the indirection is only
required once per line and per plane, instead of once per pixel and per
plane.
The read_line_t callbacks are very similar for most pixel format, but it
is required to avoid performance impact. Some helpers for color
conversion were introduced to avoid code repetition:
- *_to_argb_u16: perform colors conversion. They should be inlined by the
compiler, and they are used to avoid repetition between multiple variants
of the same format (argb/xrgb and maybe in the future for formats like
bgr formats).
This new algorithm was tested with:
- kms_plane (for color conversions)
- kms_rotation_crc (for rotations of planes)
- kms_cursor_crc (for translations of planes)
- kms_rotation (for all rotations and formats combinations) [3]
The performance gain was mesured with kms_fb_stress [4] with some
modification to fix the writeback format.
The performance improvement is around 5 to 10%.

The pixel_read_direction enum is useful to describe the reading direction
in a plane. It avoids using the rotation property of DRM, which not
practical to know the direction of reading.
This patch also introduce two helpers, one to compute the
pixel_read_direction from the DRM rotation property, and one to compute
the step, in byte, between two successive pixel in a specific direction.

Introduce the usage of block_h/block_w to compute the offset and the
pointer of a pixel. The previous implementation was specialized for
planes with block_h == block_w == 1. To avoid confusion and allow easier
implementation of tiled formats. It also remove the usage of the
deprecated format field `cpp`.
Introduce the plane_index parameter to get an offset/pointer on a
different plane.

Introduce two typedefs: pixel_read_t and pixel_write_t. It allows the
compiler to check if the passed functions take the correct arguments.
Such typedefs will help ensuring consistency across the code base in
case of update of these prototypes.
Rename input/output variable in a consistent way between read_line and
write_line.
A warn has been added in get_pixel_*_function to alert when an unsupported
pixel format is requested. As those formats are checked before
atomic_update callbacks, it should never happen.
Document for those typedefs.

Currently, the pixel conversion isn't rounding the fixed-point values
before assigning it to the RGB coefficients, which is causing the IGT
pixel-format tests to fail. So, use the drm_fixp2int_round() fixed-point
helper to round the values when assigning it to the RGB coefficients.
Tested with igt@kms_plane@pixel-format and igt@kms_plane@pixel-format-source-clamping.
[v2]:
* Use drm_fixp2int_round() to fix the pixel conversion instead of
casting the values to s32 (Melissa Wen).

Currently, vkms supports the rotate-90, rotate-180, reflect-x and

adding the rotate-270 property to vkms. The rotation was implement by
software: rotate the way the blending occurs by making the source x axis
be the destination y axis and the source y axis be the destination x
axis and reverse-read the axis.
Now, vkms supports all possible rotation values.

Currently the blend function only accepts XRGB_8888 and ARGB_8888
as a color input.
This patch refactors all the functions related to the plane composition
to overcome this limitation.
The pixels blend is done using the new internal format. And new handlers
are being added to convert a specific format to/from this internal format.
So the blend operation depends on these handlers to convert to this common
format. The blended result, if necessary, is converted to the writeback
buffer format.
This patch introduces three major differences to the blend function.
1 - All the planes are blended at once.
2 - The blend calculus is done as per line instead of per pixel.
3 - It is responsible to calculates the CRC and writing the writeback
buffer(if necessary).
These changes allow us to allocate way less memory in the intermediate
buffer to compute these operations. Because now we don't need to
have the entire intermediate image lines at once, just one line is
enough.
