<title>KMS Properties</title>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
Drivers may need to expose additional parameters to applications than
|
||||
those described in the previous sections. KMS supports attaching
|
||||
properties to CRTCs, connectors and planes and offers a userspace API to
|
||||
list, get and set the property values.
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
Properties are identified by a name that uniquely defines the property
|
||||
purpose, and store an associated value. For all property types except blob
|
||||
properties the value is a 64-bit unsigned integer.
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
KMS differentiates between properties and property instances. Drivers
|
||||
first create properties and then create and associate individual instances
|
||||
of those properties to objects. A property can be instantiated multiple
|
||||
times and associated with different objects. Values are stored in property
|
||||
instances, and all other property information are stored in the propery
|
||||
and shared between all instances of the property.
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
Every property is created with a type that influences how the KMS core
|
||||
handles the property. Supported property types are

application fit in that range.</para></listitem>

|

and use the numerical value to get and set property instance values.

To create a property drivers call one of the following functions depending
|
||||
on the property type. All property creation functions take property flags
|
||||
and name, as well as type-specific arguments.

</para>
|

<para>
|
||||
Properties can additionally be created as immutable, in which case they
|
||||
will be read-only for applications but can be modified by the driver. To
|
||||
create an immutable property drivers must set the DRM_MODE_PROP_IMMUTABLE
|
||||
flag at property creation time.
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
When no array of value-name pairs is readily available at property
|
||||
creation time for enumerated or range properties, drivers can create
|
||||
the property using the <function>drm_property_create</function> function
|
||||
and manually add enumeration value-name pairs by calling the
|
||||
<function>drm_property_add_enum</function> function. Care must be taken to
|
||||
properly specify the property type through the <parameter>flags</parameter>
|
||||
argument.
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
After creating properties drivers can attach property instances to CRTC,
|
||||
connector and plane objects by calling the
|
||||
<function>drm_object_attach_property</function>. The function takes a
|
||||
pointer to the target object, a pointer to the previously created property
|
||||
and an initial instance value.
