99b6f6150d [platforms/drm] Determine the supported transformation on a plane
Summary:
The idea behind getting the supported transformations is to tell KScreen
which transformations are actually supported and thus not even allow the
user select a setting which is not supported.

26cdfd317f [platforms/drm] Restore previous mode if an atomic test fails
Summary:
When KWin successfully presents a new mode, it stores the current state
as the last working mode. If a new modeset is requested and the atomic
test fails, all is undone and reverted to this last knowing mode.

Currently included are:
 * the mode
 * global position
 * transformation

This is only done on a modeset not when going to DPMS.

Test Plan:
Selected the not working vertical rotation and nothing bad
happened.

77b5c3caa9 [platforms/drm] Add support for rotation property on the Plane
Summary:
A preparation step to support rotation of outputs. The idea is to rotate
using DRM directly and not add it to the compositors. With this change
and a small hack to try it, I was able to rotate the screen.

d15cb52682 [DRM plugin] Correct Atomic Mode Setting
This patch makes the AMS execution path work with the new DrmCrtc and
DrmBuffer structure and solves major issues about:
* VT switching
* DPMS
* Hot plugging
* Logout
* Memory leaks

Test Plan:
Tested with Gl and QPainter.

997cf97c9f Atomic Mode Setting / Universal Plane preliminary support
This is Milestone 1 of full support of Atomic Mode Setting (AMS) and
Universal Planes in the KWin DRM backend.

With Milestone 1 we can use the primary plane of a DRM output and do an
AMS commit (this means mode setting aswell as page flipping), if the
driver supports it. Until now the functionality is only tested on Intel
graphics. You need the drm-next kernel for most recent DRM kernel
developments. As boot option set "i915.nuclear_pageflip". Additionally
at the moment AMS is still hidden behind the environment variable
KWIN_DRM_AMS. Set it, if you want to try out AMS.

What needs to be done next: Make it possible to transfer EGL buffers
directly to planes and implement logic for deciding about using a plane
or not for a specific buffer.

You can read more about it on LWN:
