startplasma-wayland debug log

KWin Wayland session is currently broken on ARM devices such as Acer Spin 513 Chromebook with Qualcomm Snapdragon 7c [1] if an external display is used. There are no issues with using the KWin X11 session in this setting with external display, nor any issues with the KWin Wayland session as long as no external display is connected.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Obtain a laptop with Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset
2. From a tty run `export QT_LOGGING_RULES="kwin_*.debug=true"; startplasma-wayland > ~/startplasma-wayland.log 2>&1 `
3. Wait a minute and `killall startplasma-wayland` from the serial console (as kwin took over the tty and can't be interrupted)

OBSERVED RESULT
The tty continues to be displayed and kwin fails to start a graphical session and hangs indefinitely.

EXPECTED RESULT
kwin successfully starts a plasma session.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Linux 6.0.8
KDE Plasma Version:  5.26.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.98.0
Qt Version: 5.15.6

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Full startplasma-wayland.log attached. Also attached is startplasma-wayland-newuser.log which contains the debug log upon reproducing with a fresh user (sudo adduser test). Both logs are substantially similar, but have small differences in the debug messages regarding Drm objects.

startplasma-wayland debug log based on a new test user
Comment 2 Leonard Lausen 2022-11-25 02:10:55 UTC
Attaching kernel log with verbose DRM logging, which may help determining why KWin is issuing an invalid command and which. KWin is started at [17471.518135] and killed at [17510.700261].

dmesg  with verbose DRM logging
Comment 4 Leonard Lausen 2022-11-27 02:56:08 UTC
The verbose DRM dmesg log shows that all configurations tried by kwin fail the kernel drm_atomic_plane_check, specifically the plane_switching_crtc sanity check [1], meaning that kwin triggers unsupported direct switching of CRTCs. Any ideas why that may happen?

msm_dpu ae01000.display-controller: [drm:drm_atomic_check_only] [PLANE:41:plane-0] switching CRTC directly
msm_dpu ae01000.display-controller: [drm:drm_atomic_check_only] [PLANE:41:plane-0] atomic core check failed

I also noticed that above kwin_wayland_drm output says `"rotation": 1` and `"rotation"=invalid value: 1`. @vladz uploaded a log containing `"rotation": 1` at  https://invent.kde.org/-/snippets/1976 Any ideas if that is the root-cause?
