From: Dave Airlie <[email protected]> Add NOUVEAU_FIFO_ENGINE_NVDEC to the abi16 uAPI and accept it in channel allocation, mapping it to the NVDEC engine runlist. Skip the Turing copy-engine workaround object for NVDEC channels: the copy engines are not part of the NVDEC runlist, so the workaround object cannot be instantiated on such channels (and is not needed there). This is required for NVK to implement Vulkan Video H.264 decode on top of the NVDEC engine: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/31867 Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Daniel Almeida <[email protected]> --- drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_abi16.c | 14 ++++++++++---- include/uapi/drm/nouveau_drm.h | 1 + 2 files changed, 11 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_abi16.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_abi16.c index 291203121f0c..4542d5f4ded8 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_abi16.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_abi16.c @@ -408,6 +408,9 @@ nouveau_abi16_ioctl_channel_alloc(ABI16_IOCTL_ARGS) case NOUVEAU_FIFO_ENGINE_CE: engine = NV_DEVICE_HOST_RUNLIST_ENGINES_CE; break; + case NOUVEAU_FIFO_ENGINE_NVDEC: + engine = NV_DEVICE_HOST_RUNLIST_ENGINES_NVDEC; + break; default: return nouveau_abi16_put(abi16, -ENOSYS); } @@ -485,10 +488,13 @@ nouveau_abi16_ioctl_channel_alloc(ABI16_IOCTL_ARGS) goto done; break; case NV_DEVICE_INFO_V0_TURING: - ret = nvif_object_ctor(&chan->chan->user, "abi16CeWar", 0, TURING_DMA_COPY_A, - NULL, 0, &chan->ce); - if (ret) - goto done; + if (engine != NV_DEVICE_HOST_RUNLIST_ENGINES_NVDEC) { + ret = nvif_object_ctor(&chan->chan->user, "abi16CeWar", + 0, TURING_DMA_COPY_A, NULL, 0, + &chan->ce); + if (ret) + goto done; + } break; default: break; diff --git a/include/uapi/drm/nouveau_drm.h b/include/uapi/drm/nouveau_drm.h index 1fa82fa6af38..c4905b3e4e91 100644 --- a/include/uapi/drm/nouveau_drm.h +++ b/include/uapi/drm/nouveau_drm.h @@ -89,6 +89,7 @@ struct drm_nouveau_getparam { #define NOUVEAU_FIFO_ENGINE_PPP 0x04 #define NOUVEAU_FIFO_ENGINE_BSP 0x08 #define NOUVEAU_FIFO_ENGINE_CE 0x30 +#define NOUVEAU_FIFO_ENGINE_NVDEC 0x300 struct drm_nouveau_channel_alloc { __u32 fb_ctxdma_handle; base-commit: 1590cf0329716306e948a8fc29f1d3ee87d3989f -- 2.55.0
