[Qemu-devel] [RFC PATCH] vga: Start supporting resolution not multiple of 16 correctly.

[Qemu-devel] [RFC PATCH] vga: Start supporting resolution not multiple of 16 correctly.

[Frediano Ziglio]

Modern notebook support 136x768 resolution. The resolution width is
not multiple of 16 causing some problems.

Qemu VGA emulation require width resolution to be multiple of 8.

VNC implementation require width resolution to be multiple of 16.

This patch remove these limits. Was tested with a Windows machine with
standard vga and 1366x768 as resolution. I had to update vgabios as
version in qemu (pc-bios/vgabios-stdvga.bin) is quite old. I also had
to add some patches on top of VGABIOS 0.7a to add some new
resolutions.

I have some doubt about this patch
- are other UI (sdl, cocoa, qxl) happy if resolution is not multiple of 16 ?
- scanline is computed exactly without any alignment (so 1366 8 bit is
1366 bytes) while getting vesa information from a laptop it seems to
use some kind of alignment (if became 0x580 which is 1408 bytes).
Perhaps should I change either VGABIOS and Qemu to make this
alignment?

It's worth testing at least sdl and gtk

I don't think there are any requirements to set the scanline bigger than
width*bpp

"a multiple"? (me not a native English speaker)

"requires" or "implementations"

SDL and Gtk+ should be easily testable; if you CC Peter Maydell or me we
can try to test Cocoa. CC'ing QXL guys.

I don't see VGABIOS being updated here despite being mentioned above? Is
that done in a different patch? Still needed?

Please check if scripts/checkpatch.pl complains about missing spaces

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 7847 bytes --]

Modern notebook support 1366x768 resolution. The resolution width is
not multiple of 16 causing some problems.

QEMU VGA emulation requires width resolution to be multiple of 8.

VNC implementation requires width resolution to be multiple of 16.

Attached patch for last vgabios in order to get some new resolutions.
Still had no time to test deeply.

I tested it for a long time with spice on xen (because qxl will be fully 
working only after adding SSE support on hvm domUs). It works, I think 
it is good to add this and the respective vgabios patch on upstream.

It's not that simple.  With 32bit depths common today it will work fine,
but for lower depths (especially those lower than 8bit) this will give
you broken scanline alignment.

In the card I tested the scanline is keep aligned but for this reason is
not directly computed by maxx * bits but is something bigger.

Hmm.. so is an update needed for this patch? It'd be nice to get this patch in!
