一、LCD硬件原理
1.1 CRT介绍
CRT是阴极射线管（Cathode Ray Tube）的缩写，它是一种使用电子束在荧光屏上创建图像的显示设备。CRT显示器在过去很长一段时间内是主流的显示技术，现已被液晶显示屏或其他新兴技术所替代。
在CRT显示器中，扫描电子束从左到右、从上到下移动，照亮屏幕上的荧光点，从而创建图像。电子束每秒多次扫描整个屏幕，产生闪烁效果，需要与正在显示的内容同步。
随着LCD、LED和OLED等新型显示技术的出现，底层原理已经发生了变化。这些显示器不再使用扫描电子束，而是使用可以单独控制发光或阻挡光的像素矩阵。这使得图像更加清晰，刷新率更快，能源效率也得到了提高。
然而，刷新显示的基本概念并没有发生很大变化。显示内容仍然通过向每个像素发送信号来控制其亮度和颜色来进行更新。这些信号由显示控制器根据输入视频信号生成，并且它们确定屏幕上显示的内容。
1.2 LCD示意图
下图是LCD示意图，里面的每个点就是一个像素点。它里面有一个电子枪，一边移动，一边发出各种颜色的光。用动态图表示如下：
电子枪是如何移动的？
- 有一条
Pixel Clock时钟线与LCD相连，每发出一次Pixel Clock，电子枪就移动一个像素。
颜色如何确定？
- 由连接
LCD的三组线RGB三原色混合而成：R(Red)、G(Green)、B(Blue)确定。
电子枪如何得知应跳到下一行？
- 有一条
HSYNC信号线与LCD相连，每发出一次脉冲(高低电平)，电子枪就跳到下一行，该信号叫做行同步信号。
电子枪如何得知应跳到原点？
- 有一条
VSYNC信号线与LCD相连，每发出一次脉冲(高低电平)，电子枪就跳到原点，该信号叫做帧同步信号。
RGB线上的数据从何而来？
- 内存里面划分一块显存(
FrameBuffer)，里面存放了要显示的数据，LCD控制器从里面将数据读出来，通过RGB三组线传给电子枪，电子枪再依次打到显示屏上。
因此要想在显示设备上显示图像，至少需要3个信号：
Pixel Clock：时钟信号，在每个时钟周期更新屏幕上一个像素；HSYNC：水平同步信号，引脚每发出一个脉冲，表示一行的数据开始发送；VSYNC：垂直同步信号，引脚每发出一个脉冲，表示一帧的数据开始发送。
1.3 时序参数
在上图中我们发现除了Pixel Clock、HSYNC、VSYNC信号外，还包含了大量的时序参数，这里我们一一介绍：
HBPD（hback porch）：行同步信号的后肩，单位为1个Pixel Clock时钟周期；HFPD（hfront porch）：行同步信号的前肩，单位为1个Pixel Clock时钟周期；HSPW（hsync pulse）：行同步信号的脉宽，单位为1个Pixel Clock时钟周期；HOZVAL（hdisplay）：LCD的水平宽度；VBPD（vback porch）：帧同步信号的后肩，单位为1个HSYNC时钟周期；VFPD（vfront porch）：帧同步信号的前肩，单位为1个HSYNC时钟周期；VSPW（vsync pulse）：帧同步信号的脉宽，单位为1个HSYNC时钟周期；LINEVAL（vdisplay）：LCD的垂直宽度；
如果这部分内容看不到，可以参考我之前写的这篇文章：Mini2440裸机开发之LCD基础。
二、CRTC核心数据结构
在DRM框架中，CRTC从Framebuffer中读取待显示的图像，并按照响应的格式输出给encoder，其主要承担的作用为：
- 配置适合显示的显示模式、分辨率、刷新率等参数，并输出相应的时序；
- 扫描
Framebuffer发送到一个或多个显示器； - 更新
Framebuffer；
概括下就是，对显示器进行扫描，产生时序信号的模块、负责帧切换、电源控制、色彩调整等等。

* One usage is for drivers and/or hardware without support for VBLANK

* after the hardware has stopped scanning out the current
* framebuffers. It should contain the timestamp and counter for the
* last vblank before the display pipeline was shut off. The simplest
* way to achieve that is calling drm_crtc_send_vblank_event()
* somewhen after drm_crtc_vblank_off() has been called.
*
* - For a CRTC which is enabled at the end of the commit (even when it
* undergoes an full modeset) the vblank timestamp and counter must
* be for the vblank right before the first frame that scans out the
* new set of buffers. Again the event can only be sent out after the

*
* - Events for disabled CRTCs are not allowed, and drivers can ignore

*
* For very simple hardware without VBLANK interrupt, enabling
* &struct drm_crtc_state.no_vblank makes DRM's atomic commit helpers
* send a fake VBLANK event at the end of the display update after all
* hardware changes have been applied. See
* drm_atomic_helper_fake_vblank().
*
* For more complex hardware this
* can be handled by the drm_crtc_send_vblank_event() function,
* which the driver should call on the provided event upon completion of
* the atomic commit. Note that if the driver supports vblank signalling
* and timestamping the vblank counters and timestamps must agree with
* the ones returned from page flip events. With the current vblank
* helper infrastructure this can be achieved by holding a vblank
* reference while the page flip is pending, acquired through
* drm_crtc_vblank_get() and released with drm_crtc_vblank_put().
* Drivers are free to implement their own vblank counter and timestamp
* tracking though, e.g. if they have accurate timestamp registers in
* hardware.
*
* For hardware which supports some means to synchronize vblank
* interrupt delivery with committing display state there's also
* drm_crtc_arm_vblank_event(). See the documentation of that function
* for a detailed discussion of the constraints it needs to be used
* safely.
*
* If the device can't notify of flip completion in a race-free way
* at all, then the event should be armed just after the page flip is
