I decided to go all out with the pixel format definitions. Added pretty
much all of the possible RGB/BGR variations. Just left out ones with
16bit components and floats. Also added a whole bunch of YUV formats,
and 8 bit pseudocolor for good measure.
I'm sure some of the fourccs now clash with the ones used by v4l2,
but that's life.
If anyone has problems with the way the formats are defined, please
speak up now! Since only Jesse has bothered to comment on my rantings
I can only assume people are happy with my approach to things.
These patches should apply on top of Jesse's v3+v5 set... I think.
I sort of lost track of things when the patches started having
different version numbers. At least we're not yet into two digits
numbers ;)

Use consistent names, especially for the RGB formats. Component order and byte order are now strictly specified for each format. The RGB format naming follows a convention where the components names and sizes are listed from left to right, matching the order within a single pixel from most significant bit to least significant bit. Lower case letters are used when listing the components to improve readablility. I believe this convention matches the one used by pixman. The YUV format names vary more. For the 4:2:2 packed formats and 2 plane formats use the fourcc. For the three plane formats the name includes the plane order and subsampling information using the standard subsampling notation. Some of those also happen to match the official fourcc definition. The fourccs for for all the RGB formats and some of the YUV formats I invented myself. The idea was that looking at just the fourcc you get some idea what the format is about without having to decode it using some external reference.

Yeah I was wondering whether to add that. So far I've not run into hardware which can eat that, so I left it out for now. Packed 4:4:4 is supported by the overlays in most ATI chips IIRC, so adding both packed and planar 4:4:4 formats would likely make sense. -- Ville Syrjälä Intel OTC ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 24+ messages in thread

The RGB formats are all defined in the CPU native byte order. But e.g. pre-R600 Radeons can only scan out little endian formats. For the framebuffer device, we use GPU byte swapping facilities to make the pixels appear to the CPU in its native byte order, so these format definitions make sense for that.

Supposing we also need big endian formats in the future, we could just define an extra flag like so: #define DRM_FORMAT_BIG_ENDIAN (1<<31) which would be ORed with the fourcc to get a big endian version of the format. Otherwise we have to duplicate the formats for big endian as well. -- Ville Syrjälä Intel OTC ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 24+ messages in thread

I think the only format in my list where I didn't use an existing fourcc is I420/IYUV. And BTW, for that one I used the same "fake" fourcc that v4l2 uses (YU12). And that brings another matter to the table. How should we deal with duplicate fourccs? I420/IYUV and YUY2/YUYV come to mind. Also, if I now add these ad-hoc fourccs for the RGB formats, and some time later someone comes in with a format with a conflicting official fourcc, what should we do? Oh and one extra detail just occured to me regarding the three plane formats. Should we even define formats for both the YUV vs. YVU variant. Seeing as we now have independent handles and offsets for each plane, we can make do with just one format definition. -- Ville Syrjälä Intel OTC ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 24+ messages in thread

One possibility I suggested originally was to mix FourCC codes and native formats which are numbered.

I think so - or the helper should do the translation and flip the planes. We want the user to get flexibility and the driver to be as simple as possible. (and btw I've no problem at all with the idea that you can pass in a FourCC *or* a format specifying structure, or with an internal API where a fourCC is always internally turned into a struct of offsets and other useful info before hitting the drivers) Alan ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 24+ messages in thread

I suggested a running number too. But I'd rather leave the fourccs to user space completely. But if people insist that the kernel should eat them too, we could just convert them to the simple number format in some helper function, to isolate the rest of the code from fourccs. And then there'd be no point in even defining any fourcc stuff in the headers, as everyone knows how to construct them. > > Oh and one extra detail just occured to me regarding the three plane > > formats.

It allows you utilize switch statements, whereas otherwise you'd possibly need to look at multiple bits of information inside the structure. -- Ville Syrjälä Intel OTC ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 24+ messages in thread

Disclaimer: I realize this is a somehow controversial topic, and I'm not trying to start a flame war :-) What about defining a common set of fourccs for both subsystem (and using them in FBDEV, which currently uses the V4L2 fourccs) ? There's more and more overlap between DRM, FBDEV and V4L2, which results in confusion for the user and mess in the kernel. I believe cleaning this up will become more and more important with time, and also probably more and more difficult if we don't act now. There's no way we will all quickly agree on a big picture unified architecture (I don't even know what it should look like), so I'm thinking about starting small and see where it will lead us. Sharing fourccs would be such a first step, and would make it easier for drivers to implement several of the DRM, FBDEV and V4L2 APIs. Another step I'd like to take would be working on sharing the video mode definitions between subsystems. DRM has struct drm_mode_modeinfo and FBDEV has struct fb_videomode. The former can't be modified as it's used in userspace APIs, but I believe we should create a common in-kernel structure to represent modes. This would also make it easier to share the EDID parser between DRM and FBDEV. One issue here is names. I understand that using names from another subsystem in a driver that has nothing to do with it (like using V4L2_PIX_FMT_* in DRM, or drm_mode_modeinfo in FBDEV) can be frustrating for many developers, so I'd like to propose an alternative. We have a media-related kernel API that is cross-subsystem, that's the media controller. It uses the prefix media_. We could use more specific versions of that preview (such as media_video_ and media_display_) as a neutral ground. Another issue is control. It's quite natural to be suspicious about subsystems we're not familiar with, and giving up control on things we consider as highly important to other subsystems feels dangerous and wrong. Once again, media_* could be an answer to this problem. Instead of trying to push other subsystems to use our APIs (which are, obviously, the best possible ever, as they're the ones we work on :-)) with the promise that we will extend them to fullfill their needs if necessary, we could design new shared structures and core functions together with a media_ prefix, and make sure they fullfill all the needs from the start. What I like about this approach is that each of the 3 video-related subsystems would then benefit from the experience of the other 2. To make it perfectly clear, I want to emphasize that I'm not trying to replace DRM, FBDEV and V4L2 with a new shared subsystem. What I would like to see in the (near future) is collaboration and sharing of core features that make sense to share. I believe we should address this from a "pain point" point of view. The one that lead me to writing this e-mail is that developing a driver that implements both the DRM and FBDEV APIs for video output currently requires various similar structures, and code to translate between all of them.

I have added Jesse Barker to the CC list. I think that to achieve closer cooperation between the various subsystems we need to organize a few days of talks between the main developers to 1) understand each others subsystem, 2) to discover what functionality would be good to share, and 3) figure out some sort of roadmap on how to do this. Linaro might be a suitable organization that can assist with at least the organizational part of setting up such a meeting. They did a good job in the past (in Budapest and Cambourne) with the buffer sharing discussions. One week of discussions/brainstorming between a small(ish) group of developers can be very, very productive in my experience.

I have added Jesse Barker to the CC list. I think that to achieve closer cooperation between the various subsystems we need to organize a few days of talks between the main developers to 1) understand each others subsystem, 2) to discover what functionality would be good to share, and 3) figure out some sort of roadmap on how to do this. Linaro might be a suitable organization that can assist with at least the organizational part of setting up such a meeting. They did a good job in the past (in Budapest and Cambourne) with the buffer sharing discussions. One week of discussions/brainstorming between a small(ish) group of developers can be very, very productive in my experience.

The same low level display driver is used by FB, V4L2 and now DRM drivers, so I didn't have much choice but to implement omapdss versions for things like video timings and color formats. I've been planning to write code for this almost as long as omapdss has had this problem, but there's always been yet-another-important-thing-to-do. So good that somebody finally brought this up =). I'm happy to test any code related to this with omapdss.
