[PATCH 1/8] Support per-head resolutions with virtio-gpu
Posted by Alex Bennée 1 month ago
From: Andrew Keesler <ankeesler@google.com>

In 454f4b0f, we started down the path of supporting separate
configurations per display head (e.g., you have 2 heads - one with
EDID name "AAA" and the other with EDID name "BBB").

In this change, we add resolution to this configuration surface (e.g.,
you have 2 heads - one with resolution 111x222 and the other with
resolution 333x444).

  -display vnc=localhost:0,id=aaa,display=vga,head=0 \
  -display vnc=localhost:1,id=bbb,display=vga,head=1 \
  -device '{"driver":"virtio-vga",
            "max_outputs":2,
            "id":"vga",
            "outputs":[
              {
                 "name":"AAA",
                 "xres":111,
                 "yres":222
              },
              {
                 "name":"BBB",
                 "xres":333,
                 "yres":444
              }
            ]}'

Here is the behavior matrix of the current resolution configuration
surface (xres/yres) with the new resolution configuration surface
(outputs[i].xres/yres).

Case: !(xres || yres) && !(outputs[i].has_xres && outputs[i].has_yres)
Behavior: current behavior - outputs[0] enabled with default xres/yres

Case: (xres || yres) && !(outputs[i].has_xres && outputs[i].has_yres)
Behavior: current behavior - outputs[0] enabled with xres/yres

Case: !(xres || yres) && (outputs[i].has_xres && outputs[i].has_yres)
Behavior: new behavior - outputs[i] enabled with outputs[i].xres/yres

Case: (xres || yres) && (outputs[i].has_xres && outputs[i].has_yres)
Behavior: new behavior - outputs[i] enabled with outputs[i].xres/yres

Nitpick: it is better to have a blank line between Behavior: and 
Signed-off-by: to clarify the beginning of tags.

output_idx < g->conf.max_outputs is redundant as it is already enforced 
with the first for-loop that enumerates outputs.

The condition can be simply removed, but I think merging this loop to 
the earlier loop will make the code a bit more concise.

Aside this redundancy of the code, the logic this patch implements looks 
good to me.

I've dropped the extra condition check but I've left the loop where it
is as I don't want to change the effect of:

    g->req_state[0].width = g->conf.xres;
    g->req_state[0].height = g->conf.yres;

above.
