[PATCH v4 6/9] video: Only dcache flush damaged lines

Tue Jan 3 22:50:01 CET 2023


Now that we have a damage area tells us which parts of the frame buffer
actually need updating, let's only dcache flush those on video_sync()
calls. With this optimization in place, frame buffer updates - especially
on large screen such as 4k displays - speed up significantly.

v1 -> v2:

  - Fix dcache range; we were flushing too much before
  - Remove ifdefs

v3 -> v4:

  - Simplify first damage logic
