Can you change the number from 1 to 203 as follows?
+#define S3CFB_WIN_POSITION _IOW('F', 203, struct s3cfb_window_pos)
We already use this number as S3CFB_WIN_POSITION.

Oops, I copied that from I810 and then forgot about it...will fix that to
really match the driver requirements.
BTW. i740 cards are really picky, they don't even POST with most boards that
don't have i440LX/EX or i440BX/ZX chipsets.

* [PATCH] fbdev: fix parsing of standard timings
From: Tomi Valkeinen @ 2011-08-26 12:38 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: linux-fbdev
The standard timings parses uses 1:1 dimensions when the ratio in the
EDID data is 0. However, for EDID 1.3 and later the dimensions are 16:10
when the ratio is 0.
Pass the version and revision numbers to get_std_timing() which can then
make the right decision about dimensions.

You should adjust the comment as well, to avoid misleading crazy people ;)
Needs also be fixed in the documentation at some places.

So we have again fields that are not always used. Okay, as we still have 11 left
that shouldn't be a big problem, I think.

Ugh, if you want this union to have a name I suggest 'fourcc' and not 'format'
as the other struct contains format information as well and who knows, maybe in
10 or 20 years we'll have yet another format description that can do things none
of the existing can do.

If we decide to use another of the reserved area this won't have the desired
behavior as the behavior of this driver will change even if it does not support
the new field. Probably the best thing is to get the desired behavior is zeroing
the whole struct and setting the supported fields to the actual values.
You should check and adjust colorspace here as well.

Thanks, looks good to me.
I'd be happy if someone with access to the original EDID specs could confirm
this and add his reviewed by.
I also think adding a comment explaining this change would be helpful.

Hi Tomi,
Just a question, I am working with an out-of-tree hdmi driver for the
NXP TDA9984 with dm3730. This worked fine in 2.6.32 as a runtime
loaded dss display driver. That is:

+ .type = OMAP_DISPLAY_TYPE_DPI,
+ .name = "hdmi",
+ .driver_name = "hdmi_panel",
+ .phy.dpi.data_lines = 24,
+ .platform_enable = wiser2_enable_hdmi,
+ .platform_disable = wiser2_disable_hdmi,
+};
+
+static struct omap_dss_device wiser2_tv_device = {
+ .name = "tv",
+ .driver_name = "venc",
+ .type = OMAP_DISPLAY_TYPE_VENC,
+ .phy.venc.type = OMAP_DSS_VENC_TYPE_SVIDEO,
+ .platform_enable = wiser2_panel_enable_tv,
+ .platform_disable = wiser2_panel_disable_tv,
+};
+
+static struct omap_dss_device *wiser2_dss_devices[] = {
+ &wiser2_dvi_device,
+ &wiser2_tv_device,
+ &wiser2_hdmi_device,
+};
so this hdmi_panel omap_dss_driver was being insmoded after init at
bootup and it worked fine, no problems with omaplfb so pvr stuff
worked fine.
I then switched to 2.6.37 (from TI devkit 2.1 gingerbread) and this
kernel wasn't so happy (panic at boot). I applied your patch below. I
also figured out that omap_vout had a similar problem as the one
you've fixed which was what was causing the panic (omap_vout tries to
call display->driver->update without checking if driver exists):
diff --git a/drivers/media/video/omap/omap_vout.c

After that change, it boots up cleanly but I don't get any display
output. I noticed that:
echo 1 > /sys/devices/omapdss/display2/enabled
no longer works. display2 stays enabled=0 rather than coming on.
I'm planning on debugging this some more when I have some free time.
But I figured I should ask first if this is a known problem, whether
anyone else is testing runtime loaded omap_dss_driver stuff and if
anyone has gotten it to work with kernels 2.6.37 and above.

As long as Florian is taking care of the backlog of the stuff that is

That's because the "packing" is not about the color components, but about the
bits that represent a single pixel.
I.e. the bits that make up the pixel (the macropixel) are stored next
to each other
in memory.

The bits that make up a pixel are stored in separate planes. Planes are located
contiguously in memory.
- FB_TYPE_INTERLEAVED_PLANES
The bits that make up a pixel are stored in separate planes. Planes
are interleaved.
The interleave factor (the distance in bytes between the planes in
memory) is stored
in the type_aux field.

Actually we do have drivers that use 8 bits per pixel for a monochrome visual.
Hence:
"Pixels are black or white. A black pixel is represented by all
(typically one) bits
set to ones, a white pixel by all bits set to zeroes."
> +FB_VISUAL_MONO01 is used with FB_TYPE_PACKED_PIXELS only.
... so this may also not be true (but it is for all current drivers, IIRC).
There's a strict orthogonality between type (how is a pixel stored in memory)
and visual (how the bits that represent the pixel are interpreted and converted
to a color value).

"Each component is stored in a macropixel according to the variable screen
information red, green, blue and transp fields."
Storage format in memory is determined by the FB_TYPE_* value.

Whether pixels are contiguous in memory or not is determined by the
FB_TYPE_* value.

Not true. Several drivers use bit planes or interleaved bitplanes.

OK, I've modified that last sentence to read
"Frame buffer visuals that don't use multiple color components per pixel (such
as monochrome and pseudo-color visuals) are also reported as packed frame
buffer types, as the bits that make up individual pixels are packed next to
each other in memory."

I'm not sure to agree with this. You make it sounds like FB_TYPE_PLANES stores
each bit in a different plane. Is that really the case ?

That's a bit unclear to me. How are they interleaved ?

OK. I've rephrased it as
"Pixels are black or white and stored on a number of bits (typically one)
specified by the variable screen information bpp field.
Black pixels are represented by all bits set to 1 and white pixels by all bits
set to 0. When the number of bits per pixel is smaller than 8, several pixels
are packed together in a byte."

What about
"FB_VISUAL_MONO01 is currently used with FB_TYPE_PACKED_PIXELS only." ?

How so ? With FB_TYPE_PLANES and FB_VISUAL_TRUECOLOR for an RGB format, how
are the R, G and B planes ordered ? Are color components packed or padded
inside a plane ? I understand that the design goal was to have orthogonal
FB_TYPE_* and FB_VISUAL_* values, but we're missing too much information for
that to be truly generic.

How can they not be contiguous in memory ? Can you please give an example ?

Still not correct, as you don't grasp the concept of e.g. bitplanes
yet (see below).
The visual doesn't have anything to do with how the macropixels are stored in
memory.

Yes.
First you store all "first" (fbdev does lack a way to specify little
or big endian here)
bits of each pixel in memory, contiguously. Then the second bit of
each pixel, and so on.
For 8 pixels (A - H) with 4 bits per pixel (0 - 3) (i.e. the first pixel is
[A0 A1 A2 A3]), that would be like:
A0 B0 C0 D0 E0 F0 G0 H0 A1 B1 C1 D1 E1 F1 G1 H1 A2 B2 C2 D2 E2 F2 G2 H2
A3 B3 C3 D3 E3 F3 G3 H3

Instead of storing the same bits of all pixels contiguously into memory, they
are interleaved. Typically this is done per line (type_aux is the
length of a line in bytes),
or per word (Atari uses 2 bytes interleaving.
E.g. for a 320 x 200 display, with FB_TYPE_PLANES, you would store 320 x 200 64000 first bits, followed 64000 second bits, and so on.
With FB_TYPE_INTERLEAVED_PLANES and type_aux = 320 / 8 = 40,
you store the first line of the screen as 320 first bits, followed by
320 second bits, and so on.
Then the next line, as 320 first bits, followed by 320 second bits, and so on...
Hence the bits that make up a pixel are spread across memory. It was
useful in the days
computers couldn't show many colors, and allows things like 5 or 6
bits per pixels.

stifb.c seems to use FB_TYPE_PLANES, but it uses bits_per_pixel is 1, so
FB_TYPE_PACKED_PIXELS, FB_TYPE_PLANES, and FB_TYPE_INTERLEAVED_PLANES
all degenerate to the same case anyway.

That's specified by the fb_bitfield structs.

The visual specifies how to interprete the fields that make up a pixel (as color
components, indices, ...).
The fb_bitfield structs specify how the fields are laid out in a pixel of size
bits_per_pixel.
The frame buffer type specifies how pixels are laid out in memory.

Thank you. That's clearer now. Planar formats in V4L2 are different, hence my
initial confusion.
If my understanding is now correct, a V4L2 planar YUV type where Y, U and V
components are stored in separate byte-oriented planes, with each plane
storing Y, U or V components packed (such as http://linuxtv.org/downloads/v4l-
dvb-apis/V4L2-PIX-FMT-YUV422P.html), would be of neither FB_TYPE_PLANES nor
FB_TYPE_PACKED. The same would be true for an RGB format where each component
is stored in a separate plane with each plane sotring R, G or B packed.
If the above is correct, what FB_TYPE_* should a driver report when using
FB_VISUAL_FOURCC with V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUV422P (http://linuxtv.org/downloads/v4l-
dvb-apis/V4L2-PIX-FMT-YUV422P.html) or V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV12
(http://linuxtv.org/downloads/v4l-dvb-apis/re25.html) for instance ?

That's fine if the FB device uses bitplanes, but not if it uses a format such
as the ones described above.

Indeed. Currently this cannot be represented.

We need new types for those. Or always use FOURCC for them.

My proposal currently defined FB_VISUAL_FOURCC. What about adding
FB_TYPE_FOURCC as well ?

That may make sense.
When will the driver report FB_{TYPE,VISUAL}_FOURCC?
- When using a mode that cannot be represented in the legacy way,
- But what with modes that can be represented? Legacy software cannot
handle FB_{TYPE,VISUAL}_FOURCC.

Definitely.

My idea was to use FB_{TYPE,VISUAL}_FOURCC only when the mode is configured
using the FOURCC API. If FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO is called with a non-FOURCC
format, the driver will report non-FOURCC types and visuals.
