Marek Vasut 05ecc67835 drm: mxsfb: Implement LCDIF scanout CRC32 support
The LCDIF controller as present in i.MX28/i.MX6SX/i.MX8M Mini/Nano has
CRC_STAT register, which contains CRC32 of the frame as it was clocked
out of the DPI interface of the LCDIF. This is most likely meant as a
functional safety feature.

Unfortunately, there is zero documentation on how the CRC32 is calculated,
there is no documentation of the polynomial, the init value, nor on which
data is the checksum applied.

By applying brute-force on 8 pixel / 2 line frame, which is the minimum
size LCDIF would work with, it turns out the polynomial is CRC32_POLY_LE
0xedb88320 , init value is 0xffffffff , the input data are bitrev32()
of the entire frame and the resulting CRC has to be also bitrev32()ed.

Doing this calculation in kernel for each frame is unrealistic due to the
CPU demand, so attach the CRC collected from hardware to a frame instead.
The DRM subsystem already has an interface for this purpose and the CRC
can be accessed e.g. via debugfs:
"
$ echo auto > /sys/kernel/debug/dri/1/crtc-0/crc/control
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/1/crtc-0/crc/data
0x0000408c 0xa4e5cdd8
0x0000408d 0x72f537b4
"
The per-frame CRC can be used by userspace e.g. during automated testing,
to verify that whatever buffer was sent to be scanned out was actually
scanned out of the LCDIF correctly.

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.

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.
