[ Upstream commit c238bfe0be ]
[Why]
On some compositors, with two monitors attached, VT terminal
switch can cause a graphical issue by the following means:
There are two streams, one for each monitor. Each stream has one
plane
current state:
M1:S1->P1
M2:S2->P2
The user calls for a terminal switch and a commit is made to
change both planes to linear swizzle mode. In atomic check,
a new dc_state is constructed with new planes on each stream
new state:
M1:S1->P3
M2:S2->P4
In commit tail, each stream is committed, one at a time. The first
stream (S1) updates properly, triggerring a full update and replacing
the state
current state:
M1:S1->P3
M2:S2->P4
The update for S2 comes in, but dc detects that there is no difference
between the stream and plane in the new and current states, and so
triggers a fast update. The fast update does not program swizzle,
so the second monitor is corrupted
[How]
Add a flag to dc_plane_state that forces full updates
When a stream undergoes a full update, set this flag on all changed
planes, then clear it on the current stream
Subsequent streams will get full updates as a result

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
