Module drm::control[−][src]

Modesetting operations that the DRM subsystem exposes.

Summary

The DRM subsystem provides Kernel Modesetting (KMS) functionality by exposing the following resource types:

FrameBuffer - Specific to an individual process, these wrap around generic GPU buffers so that they can be attached to a Plane.
Planes - Dedicated memory objects which contain a buffer that can then be scanned out by a CRTC. There exist a few different types of planes depending on the use case.
CRTC - Scanout engines that read pixel data from a Plane and sends it to a Connector. Each CRTC has at least one Primary Plane.
Connector - Represents the physical output, such as a DisplayPort or VGA connector.
Encoder - Encodes pixel data from a CRTC into something a Connector can understand.

Further details on each resource can be found in their respective modules.

To begin using modesetting functionality, the Device trait must be implemented on top of the basic super::Device trait.

atomic	Helpers for atomic modesetting.
connector	Connector
crtc	CRTC
dumbbuffer	DumbBuffer
encoder	Encoder
framebuffer	Framebuffer
plane	Plane
property	Property

CrtcListFilter	A filter that can be used with a `ResourceHandles` to determine the set of Crtcs that can attach to a specific encoder.
Events	Iterator over `Event`s of a device. Create via `Device::receive_events()`.
Mode	Resolution and timing information for a display mode.
PageFlipEvent	Page Flip event
PlaneResourceHandles	The set of `plane::Handle` that a `Device` exposes.
PropertyValueSet	Wrapper around a set of property IDs and their raw values.
ResourceHandles	The set of `ResourceHandles` that a `Device` exposes. Excluding Plane resources.
VblankEvent	Vblank event

AtomicCommitFlags	Commit flags for atomic mode setting Flags for an atomic commit
Event	An event from a device.
PageFlipFlags	Flags to alter the behaviour of a page flip
PageFlipTarget	Target to alter the sequence of page flips
PlaneType	Type of a plane

Device	This trait should be implemented by any object that acts as a DRM device and provides modesetting functionality.
ResourceHandle	Handle for a drm resource

Convert from a raw drm object value to a typed Handle
