| <description summary="factory for creating dmabuf-based wl_buffers"> |
| Following the interfaces from: |
| https://www.khronos.org/registry/egl/extensions/EXT/EGL_EXT_image_dma_buf_import.txt |
| and the Linux DRM sub-system's AddFb2 ioctl. |
| |
| This interface offers a way to create generic dmabuf-based |
| wl_buffers. Immediately after a client binds to this interface, |
| the set of supported formats is sent with 'format' events. |
| |
| The following are required from clients: |
| |
| - Clients must ensure that either all data in the dma-buf is |
| coherent for all subsequent read access or that coherency is |
| correctly handled by the underlying kernel-side dma-buf |
| implementation. |
| |
| - Don't make any more attachments after sending the buffer to the |
| compositor. Making more attachments later increases the risk of |
| the compositor not being able to use (re-import) an existing |
| dmabuf-based wl_buffer. |
| |
| The underlying graphics stack must ensure the following: |
| |
| - The dmabuf file descriptors relayed to the server will stay valid |
| for the whole lifetime of the wl_buffer. This means the server may |
| at any time use those fds to import the dmabuf into any kernel |
| sub-system that might accept it. |
| |
| To create a wl_buffer from one or more dmabufs, a client creates a |
| zwp_linux_dmabuf_params_v1 object with a zwp_linux_dmabuf_v1.create_params |
| request. All planes required by the intended format are added with |
| the 'add' request. Finally, a 'create' request is issued. The server |
| will reply with either a 'created' event which provides the final |
| wl_buffer or a 'failed' event saying that it cannot use the dmabufs |
| provided. |
| |
| Warning! The protocol described in this file is experimental and |
| backward incompatible changes may be made. Backward compatible changes |
| may be added together with the corresponding interface version bump. |
| Backward incompatible changes are done by bumping the version number in |
| the protocol and interface names and resetting the interface version. |
| Once the protocol is to be declared stable, the 'z' prefix and the |
| version number in the protocol and interface names are removed and the |
| interface version number is reset. |

| This temporary object is a collection of dmabufs and other |
| parameters that together form a single logical buffer. The temporary |
| object may eventually create one wl_buffer unless cancelled by |
| destroying it before requesting 'create'. |
| |
| Single-planar formats only require one dmabuf, however |
| multi-planar formats may require more than one dmabuf. For all |
| formats, an 'add' request must be called once per plane (even if the |
| underlying dmabuf fd is identical). |
| |
| You must use consecutive plane indices ('plane_idx' argument for 'add') |
| from zero to the number of planes used by the drm_fourcc format code. |
| All planes required by the format must be given exactly once, but can |
| be given in any order. Each plane index can be set only once. |

| <description summary="create a wl_buffer from the given dmabufs"> |
| This asks for creation of a wl_buffer from the added dmabuf |
| buffers. The wl_buffer is not created immediately but returned via |
| the 'created' event if the dmabuf sharing succeeds. The sharing |
| may fail at runtime for reasons a client cannot predict, in |
| which case the 'failed' event is triggered. |
| |
| The 'format' argument is a DRM_FORMAT code, as defined by the |
| libdrm's drm_fourcc.h. The Linux kernel's DRM sub-system is the |
| authoritative source on how the format codes should work. |
| |
| The 'flags' is a bitfield of the flags defined in enum "flags". |
| 'y_invert' means the that the image needs to be y-flipped. |
| |
| Flag 'interlaced' means that the frame in the buffer is not |
| progressive as usual, but interlaced. An interlaced buffer as |
| supported here must always contain both top and bottom fields. |
| The top field always begins on the first pixel row. The temporal |
| ordering between the two fields is top field first, unless |
| 'bottom_first' is specified. It is undefined whether 'bottom_first' |
| is ignored if 'interlaced' is not set. |
| |
| This protocol does not convey any information about field rate, |
| duration, or timing, other than the relative ordering between the |
| two fields in one buffer. A compositor may have to estimate the |
| intended field rate from the incoming buffer rate. It is undefined |
| whether the time of receiving wl_surface.commit with a new buffer |
| attached, applying the wl_surface state, wl_surface.frame callback |
| trigger, presentation, or any other point in the compositor cycle |
| is used to measure the frame or field times. There is no support |
| for detecting missed or late frames/fields/buffers either, and |
| there is no support whatsoever for cooperating with interlaced |
| compositor output. |
| |
| The composited image quality resulting from the use of interlaced |
| buffers is explicitly undefined. A compositor may use elaborate |
| hardware features or software to deinterlace and create progressive |
| output frames from a sequence of interlaced input buffers, or it |
| may produce substandard image quality. However, compositors that |
| cannot guarantee reasonable image quality in all cases are recommended |
| to just reject all interlaced buffers. |
| |
| Any argument errors, including non-positive width or height, |
| mismatch between the number of planes and the format, bad |
| format, bad offset or stride, may be indicated by fatal protocol |
| errors: INCOMPLETE, INVALID_FORMAT, INVALID_DIMENSIONS, |
| OUT_OF_BOUNDS. |
| |
| Dmabuf import errors in the server that are not obvious client |
| bugs are returned via the 'failed' event as non-fatal. This |
| allows attempting dmabuf sharing and falling back in the client |
| if it fails. |
| |
| This request can be sent only once in the object's lifetime, after |
| which the only legal request is destroy. This object should be |
| destroyed after issuing a 'create' request. Attempting to use this |
| object after issuing 'create' raises ALREADY_USED protocol error. |
| |
| It is not mandatory to issue 'create'. If a client wants to |
| cancel the buffer creation, it can just destroy this object. |
