DRM KMS overview

Applicable for STM32MP13x lines, STM32MP15x lines

This article gives information about the Linux® DRM/KMS display, graphic and composition framework.

1. Framework purpose[edit | edit source]

The purpose of this article is to provide a quick overview of the Direct Rendering Manager[1] & Kernel Mode Setting[2] Linux® framework, called the "DRM/KMS" framework for short, giving some hints on its architecture, configuration, usage, debug and related use cases.


The DRM/KMS framework is dedicated to the management of the display, graphic and composition subsystems. With the help of other Linux multimedia frameworks and applications, the DRM/KMS framework is typically used:

  • to compose animated contents taking advantages of the hardware acceleration.
  • to control both display interfaces and external displays including their settings (resolution, frequency, multi-screen...).
  • to display this animated contents on display panels or HDMI outputs.


The DRM/KMS framework offers:

  • a kernel level interface driver for display, graphic and composition internal and external hardware peripherals.
  • a userland level interface, with the help of libdrm/libkms libraries, to get access to the related hardware features, configuration and hardware acceleration.


Examples of use cases involving the DRM/KMS framework:

  • Display an animated content on a DSI or RGB panel.
  • Configure the HDMI output to a given resolution and frame rate.
  • Activate the HDMI output among several available display outputs.
  • Create and manage memory buffers dedicated to the display, which contains graphical content (animations, 3D objects, videos...).
  • Get display timing information to efficiently adjust the speed of animated content.

Alternate text

2.1. Component description[edit | edit source]

From Application/Middleware to Hardware

  • Application/Middleware (User space)

The Application/Middleware "client" relying on the application framework and its related protocol. This client can be either a traditional application or a specific middleware.

  • Application Framework (User space)

The application framework (Android, Wayland, Qt...) libraries implementing the related application framework protocol, including the display framework with the libdrm/libkms libraries and the GPU-based composition with the OpenGLES libraries.

  • OpenGLES (User space)

The OpenGLES libraries used by the application framework for the GPU-based composition and by the application for creating animated contents.

  • libdrm/libkms (User space)

The libdrm and libkms libraries are used by the application framework to configure, control and refresh the display paths and content. Incorporated wrapper functions are used to access the DRM/KMS ioctls.

  • GPU driver (Kernel space)

The Linux kernel driver used to transfer OpenGLES instructions to the GPU hardware block.

  • DRM/KMS framework & drivers (Kernel Space)

The DRM/KMS Linux kernel framework and related drivers used to access the display hardware block and the related user space API implementation.

  • GPU (Hardware)

The GPU hardware block.

  • Display internal peripherals (Hardware)

All internal display peripheral hardware blocks like the LTDC internal peripheral and the DSI internal peripheral.

  • Panel/Bridge device (Hardware)

The physical Panel or Bridge device to display contents.

2.2. API description[edit | edit source]

The DRM/KMS framework userland API documentation:

  • for the libdrm/libkms libraries : See libdrm source code and documentation[3]
  • for the kernel/userland (uapi): See "Linux GPU Driver Developer’s Guide / Userland interfaces"[4]


The internal DRM/KMS kernel framework API is documented in the official "Linux GPU Driver Developer’s Guide / DRM Internals"[5]

3. Configuration[edit | edit source]

The objective of this chapter is to explain how to configure the Linux kernel and device tree to have the DRM/KMS framework and related drivers activated.

3.1. Kernel configuration[edit | edit source]

The DRM/KMS framework and related drivers are activated by default in all ST deliveries. Nevertheless, if a specific configuration is needed, this section indicates how the DRM/KMS framework and drivers can be activated/deactivated in the kernel.

Activate the DRM/KMS framework in kernel configuration with Linux Menuconfig tool: Menuconfig or how to configure kernel

Device Drivers  --->
    Graphics support  --->
    [*] Direct Rendering Manager (XFree86 4.1.0 and higher DRI support)  --->

Note: Most of the important kernel configuration flags related to the DRM/KMS framework are enabled by default in multi_v7_defconfig file.

The internal display peripherals (LTDC, DSI) and the related display panels/bridges, connected external peripherals must also be enabled. See the example below:

Device Drivers  --->
    Graphics support  --->
    [*] DRM Support for STMicroelectronics SoC series
    [*]   STMicroelectronics specific extensions for Synopsys MIPI DSI
    Display Panels  --->
        [*] support for simple panels
        [*] Orise Technology otm8009a 480x800 dsi 2dl panel
        [*] Raydium RM68200 720x1280 DSI video mode panel
    Display Interface Bridges  --->
        [*] Silicon Image sii902x RGB/HDMI bridge

3.2. Device tree configuration[edit | edit source]

Refer to the LTDC device tree configuration and DSI device tree configuration articles for the complete documentation of the LTDC, DSI, display panel and bridge configuration supported by the Linux kernel device tree mechanism.

4. How to use the framework[edit | edit source]

4.1. modetest (DRM/KMS test tool)[edit | edit source]

The tool modetest provided by the libdrm library[3] is useful to:

  • List all display capabilities: CRTCs, encoders & connectors (DSI, DPI, HDMI, ...), planes, modes, etc...
  • Perform basic tests: display a test pattern, display 2 layers, perform a vsync test
  • Specify the video mode: resolution and refresh rate
Info white.png Information
You can get all display capabilities with modetest whatever was running on top of DRM/KMS Linux framework (like Wayland Weston).
But if you want to test displays with modetest, the framework has to be stopped.
For instance, you can stop Weston with the following command:
 systemctl stop weston-launch

4.1.1. modetest help[edit | edit source]

You can get the help of modetest with the following command:

 modetest --help

Result example:

~# modetest --help
usage: modetest [-acDdefMPpsCvw]

 Query options:

        -c      list connectors
        -e      list encoders
        -f      list framebuffers
        -p      list CRTCs and planes (pipes)

 Test options:

        -P <plane_id>@<crtc_id>:<w>x<h>[+<x>+<y>][*<scale>][@<format>]  set a plane
        -s <connector_id>[,<connector_id>][@<crtc_id>]:<mode>[-<vrefresh>][@<format>]   set a mode
        -C      test hw cursor
        -v      test vsynced page flipping
        -w <obj_id>:<prop_name>:<value> set property
        -a      use atomic API

 Generic options:

        -d      drop master after mode set
        -M module       use the given driver
        -D device       use the given device

        Default is to dump all info.

      • no encoder is connected to the DSI panel
      • a single resolution is supported (480x800)
  • 1 CRTC
  • 2 planes with various supported color formats

Notes:

  • id values may differ depending on the application display hardware configuration.
  • for each connector supported mode, the last figure displayed before the 'flags' list corresponds to the display pixel clock (in kHz)

If you want to know more about DRM/KMS encoders, connectors, CRTCs and planes, have a look at the presentations suggested in the To go further chapter.

4.1.3. Set a particular video mode[edit | edit source]

Using the modetest -M stm command (see Show display overall status), let's assume that the application returns the following results:

  • the HDMI-A-1 is on connector id 29, is connected and supports a resolution of 1280x720-50.
  • the CRTC is on id 33

The command to set the 1280x720-50 video:

 modetest -M stm -s 29@33:1280x720-50 -d

By using the modetest option -d (drop master after mode set) in the above command, the next DRM-based application that will start will detect the current video mode and use it directly. For instance, with Weston, use "mode=current" in the weston.ini file to set preferred DRM video mode with the above command and restart weston to use it.

Info white.png Information
Setting a particular video mode may change the display pixel clock frequency and its related clock tree configuration. See STM32MP15 clock tree article for more information.

4.1.4. Send a test pattern to a display connector[edit | edit source]

Using the modetest -M stm command (see Show display overall status), let's assume you have identified that:

  • the HDMI-A-1 is on connector id 29, is connected and supports a resolution of 1280x720-50.
  • the CRTC is id 33

So the command to send a test pattern is:

 modetest -M stm -s 29@33:1280x720-50

The SMPTE color bars test pattern[6] will appear on the HDMI screen.

If you want to test another DRM/KMS connector, simply change the connector and resolution values in the command (in the example below the connector id 31 is associated with the connector DSI-1 supporting the 480x800 mode)

 modetest -M stm -s 31@33:480x800

4.1.5. Test the display of 2 layers[edit | edit source]

A test using 2 layers can be run using the -s and -P options. For instance, the following command displays a SMPTE color bars test pattern in full screen on a first layer and a 256x256 test pattern on a 2nd layer positionned on top of the 1st layer at coordinates (100, 100) in AR24-fourcc color format:

 modetest -M stm -s 31@33:480x800 -P 34@33:256x256+100+100@AR24

If a 2 layer DRM atomic mode[7] display test is needed using the modetest option -a, use the following command:

 modetest -M stm -s 31@33:480x800 -P 32@33:480x480@AR24 -P 34@33:256x256@AR24 -a
Info white.png Information
  • Check the list of supported plane color formats by referring to the Show display overall status chapter.
  • Two planes may not work on higher display resolutions or/and on small systems (low DDR...).

4.1.6. Test Vsync[edit | edit source]

The following command flips between 2 buffers: the SMPTE pattern and a black/white screen. The flip is synchronized with the display Vsync. The screen continuously blinks, and the framerate is displayed in the console:

 modetest -M stm -s 31@33:480x800 -v

Example results:

~# modetest -M stm -s 31@33:480x800 -v
setting mode 480x800-50Hz@XR24 on connectors 31, crtc 33
freq: 50.16Hz
freq: 49.99Hz
freq: 49.99Hz

If you want to test the Vsync with the DRM atomic mode[7] thanks to the modetest option -a, use the following command:

 modetest -M stm -s 31@33:480x800 -P 32@33:256x256@AR24 -v -a

4.2. kmscube (DRM/KMS OpenGLES GPU test tool)[edit | edit source]

The small application kmscube (rotating cube) provided by Mesa[8] demonstrates that the GPU is running on top of the DRM/KMS framework.

Here are useful kmscube commands:

 systemctl stop weston-launch     # required only if Weston is running
 kmscube --help
 kmscube
 kmscube -A               # use drm/kms atomic modesetting and fencing

 kmscube --mode=rgba      # rgba textured cube
 kmscube --mode=nv12-2img # yuv textured (color conversion in shader)
 kmscube --mode=nv12-1img # yuv textured (single nv12 texture)

 kmscube -V /dev/video0   # camera preview on the cube. /!\ depends on the camera or webcam available color formats
 kmscube -V video.mkv     # video playback on the cube. /!\ performances could be low depending on the video format

4.3. Tips[edit | edit source]

4.3.1. How to get the name and current status of a DRM connector[edit | edit source]

Use the following command to get the DRM connector names and associated status:

 for p in /sys/class/drm/*/status; do con=${p%/status}; echo -n "${con#*/card?-}: "; cat $p; done

Result example:

DSI-1: connected
HDMI-A-1: connected

More information related to debugfs are available in the Debugfs article.

5.1.3. How to monitor with /sys/class/drm[edit | edit source]

The DRM/KMS framework provides information from the /sys/class/drm directory.

 ls /sys/class/drm
card0  card0-DSI-1  card0-HDMI-A-1  version

Examples of the available information:

  • the status of a given connector (connected or disconnected). The following example gives the status of the DRM connector named "HDMI-A-1":
 cat /sys/class/drm/card0-HDMI-A-1/status 
connected
  • the modes available on a given connector. The following example gives the available modes of the DRM connector named "DSI-1":
 cat /sys/class/drm/card0-DSI-1/modes
480x800

5.1.4. How to monitor the display framerate[edit | edit source]

More information in the article How to monitor the display framerate.

Info white.png Information
The DRM/KMS framework does not offer natively a display framerate monitoring, the above solution is powered by the STMicroelectronics DRM/KMS implementation.

5.1.5. How to monitor the DMA-BUF and CMA memory usage[edit | edit source]

The DRM/KMS framework uses both DMA-BUF and CMA memory managers[9] as display dedicated buffers.

  • CMA
 cat /proc/meminfo | grep -i cma

Result example:

CmaTotal:         131072 kB
CmaFree:           85644 kB
  • DMA-BUF
 cat /sys/kernel/debug/dma_buf/bufinfo

5.2. How to trace[edit | edit source]

5.2.1. Enable DRM/KMS traces with the sysfs[edit | edit source]

The DRM/KMS traces can be enabled / disabled dynamically using the sysfs debug entry (/sys/module/drm/parameters/debug). The DRM/KMS traces are directed to the dmesg log.

The debug value to set is an OR combination of some debug levels defined in include/drm/drm_print.h . See below an extract of this file:

/*
 * The following categories are defined:
 *
 * CORE: Used in the generic drm code: drm_ioctl.c, drm_mm.c, drm_memory.c, ...
 *	 This is the category used by the DRM_DEBUG() macro.
 *
 * DRIVER: Used in the vendor specific part of the driver: i915, radeon, ...
 *	   This is the category used by the DRM_DEBUG_DRIVER() macro.
 *
 * KMS: used in the modesetting code.
 *	This is the category used by the DRM_DEBUG_KMS() macro.
 *
 * PRIME: used in the prime code.
 *	  This is the category used by the DRM_DEBUG_PRIME() macro.
 *
 * ATOMIC: used in the atomic code.
 *	  This is the category used by the DRM_DEBUG_ATOMIC() macro.
 *
 * VBL: used for verbose debug message in the vblank code
 *	  This is the category used by the DRM_DEBUG_VBL() macro.
 *
 * Enabling verbose debug messages is done through the drm.debug parameter,
 * each category being enabled by a bit.
 *
 * drm.debug=0x1 will enable CORE messages
 * drm.debug=0x2 will enable DRIVER messages
 * drm.debug=0x3 will enable CORE and DRIVER messages
 * ...
 * drm.debug=0x3f will enable all messages
 *
 * An interesting feature is that it's possible to enable verbose logging at
 * run-time by echoing the debug value in its sysfs node:
 *   # echo 0xf > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug
 */

Examples:

  • Enable all the DRM/KMS logs:
 echo 0xff > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug
  • Enable only driver DRM/KMS logs:
 echo 0x02 > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug
  • Disable all DRM/KMS logs:
 echo 0 > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug
