From 9724ed6c1b1212d138e63f5e80647dc8b6b86696 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zack Rusin Date: Mon, 23 Oct 2023 09:46:12 +0200 Subject: drm: Introduce DRM_CLIENT_CAP_CURSOR_PLANE_HOTSPOT Virtualized drivers place additional restrictions on the cursor plane which breaks the contract of universal planes. To allow atomic modesettings with virtualized drivers the clients need to advertise that they're capable of dealing with those extra restrictions. To do that introduce DRM_CLIENT_CAP_CURSOR_PLANE_HOTSPOT which lets DRM know that the client is aware of and capable of dealing with the extra restrictions on the virtual cursor plane. Setting this option to true makes DRM expose the cursor plane on virtualized drivers. The userspace is expected to set the hotspots and handle mouse events on that plane.
