Print a more generic "failed to compute watermark levels" whenever any
of skl_compute_wm_levels() fail, and print only the specific error
message for the specific cases. This allows us to stop passing pstate
everywhere, making the watermarks computation code a little less
dependent on random intel state structs.

Nothing random about those structs. They are *the* state.
Using them directly rather than duplicating informationa in the
wm_params struct would probably make the code look a bit less alien.

But given that the information is duplicated I guess we don't have to
pass in the plane state. So the patch seems fine in that sense.

And this will definitely conflict with Maarten's NV12 work. Either we
need to duplicate even more stuff or just pass the proper states around.

What I'm about to say is all probably a reflex of my own incompetence
to understand the flows of our code, but here it goes.

1. There's duplication in those structs. At any given point of our
source code, should you use state structs passed as parameters, or
should you use object->state (e.g., intel_crtc->state)? Sometimes one
thing is the new state and the other thing is the old state, sometimes
it is the opposite, and checking which one is which is never trivial. I
always have to go back to intel_display.c and try to find that point in
the modeset where we assign crtc_config to crtc->config and then try to
figure out if my code runs before or after that point. And I'm never
100% confident I'm using the correct struct.

2. There's a lot of duplication in members of those structs. There are
like 5 different things that could mean "pixel rate" (for real mode,
for adjusted mode, considering/not-considering scaling, rotation, etc),
there are many things that could mean "source width", etc. So when you
need a specific value, it's not always clear where to get it from in
our driver.

3. The names inside the watermarks calculation page (or anywhere else
in our spec) don't easily translate to any of those struct members
mentioned in item 2. E.g., plane pixel rate.

I mean, look at how many times the spec (not only for watermarks, but
for other stuff too, like FBC and PSR) had wording like "source size"
and we fetched the value from one place, but then we learned that we
needed to fetch the value from this other place that was the same in
most cases except for these X and Y corner cases. You reviewed some of
those patches.

So, to conclude the argument, the nice thing about struct skl_wm_params
is that it allows us to have a single point where we translate "i915
terminology" to "watermarks calculation algorithm terminology", so we
can fix that single place if/when needed. And then everywhere else in
watermarks code we just fetch the value from this struct without having
to worry "at this point in the sequence, where should this value come
from?", allowing us to focus on the algorithm specifically. On top of
that, there's the fact that we only compute things once instead of up
to 8 times per plane (7 levels + transition watermarks).

Of course, the downside is that we address the problem of "too many
places to fetch information from" by introducing a new place where
information is fetched from, so I definitely can't argue that the
current solution is good either. I would really like to know what are
your proposals here: if we decide to remove the params struct, would
you suggest we simply fetch everything directly from the passed structs
and recompute all the values that are computed multiple times? I'm
totally willing to implement something better if you have it in your
head.

That was solved with the mlankhorst iterators. So no more foo->state,
except during readout since we don't currently allocate new states
for that.

And Maarten has been busy elimninating crtc->config as well. Not too
many uses left I hope.

I don't recall many corner cases. Well, I guess you can count the
cursor as one. But that's about it I think.

Rotation was maybe the one that caused the most confusion but I think
that was because the spec was very vague. One actually has to think
a bit to figure out if it's referring to the fb orientation or the
scanout orientation.

That can usually be solved with functions as well.

The "let's not recompute the same thing many times" argument may
have some merit. Though most things are perhaps cheap enough to not
matter much. And we could always stick more stuff into the plane/crtc
states.

But I don't have any concrete proposals at this time. I've tried to
stay away from the skl wm code as much as possible so as to not get
an urge to rewrite it :P
