This + * is useful to parse sink identification information like vendor, model + * and serial. Drivers should update this property by calling + * drm_mode_connector_update_edid_property(), usually after having parsed + * the EDID using drm_add_edid_modes(). Userspace cannot change this + * property. + * DPMS: + * Legacy property for setting the power state of the connector. For atomic + * drivers this is only provided for backwards compatibility with existing + * drivers, it remaps to controlling the "ACTIVE" property on the CRTC the + * connector is linked to. Drivers should never set this property directly, + * it is handled by the DRM core by calling the ->dpms() callback in + * &drm_connector_funcs. Atomic drivers should implement this hook using + * drm_atomic_helper_connector_dpms(). This is the only property standard + * connector property that userspace can change. + * PATH: + * Connector path property to identify how this sink is physically + * connected. Used by DP MST. This should be set by calling + * drm_mode_connector_set_path_property(), in the case of DP MST with the + * path property the MST manager created. Userspace cannot change this + * property. + * TILE: + * Connector tile group property to indicate how a set of DRM connector + * compose together into one logical screen. This is used by both high-res + * external screens (often only using a single cable, but exposing multiple + * DP MST sinks), or high-res integrated panels (like dual-link DSI) which + * are not gen-locked. Note that for tiled panels which are genlocked, like + * dual-link LVDS or dual-link DSI, the driver should try to not expose the + * tiling and virtualize both &drm_crtc and &drm_plane if needed. Drivers + * should update this value using drm_mode_connector_set_tile_property(). + * Userspace cannot change this property. + * + * Connectors also have one standardized atomic property: + * + * CRTC_ID: + * Mode object ID of the &drm_crtc this connector should be connected to. + */ + int drm_connector_create_standard_properties(struct drm_device *dev) { struct drm_property *prop; |
