ENUM PIPE_SPLIT_POLICY(9)

okay bestie, welcome to the enum pipe_split_policy page from the Kernel API Manual, section 9 💅✨

🌈 NAME

enum pipe_split_policy — the pipe split strategy supported by DCN 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS

       enum pipe_split_policy {
           MPC_SPLIT_DYNAMIC ,
           MPC_SPLIT_AVOID ,
           MPC_SPLIT_AVOID_MULT_DISP

       };

✨ Constants

• MPC_SPLIT_DYNAMIC — DC will automatically decide how to split the pipe so it can bring the best trade-off between performance and power consumption. This is the recommended option. ✨
• MPC_SPLIT_AVOID — Avoid pipe split, which means that DC will not try any sort of split optimization. 🛑
• MPC_SPLIT_AVOID_MULT_DISP — With this option, DC will only try to optimize the pipe utilization when using a single display; if the user connects to a second display, DC will avoid pipe split. 🖥️➕🖥️

🎀 Description

This enum is used to define the pipe split policy supported by DCN. By default, DC favors MPC_SPLIT_DYNAMIC. 💖
