[PATCH 1/2] drm/amdgpu: Add "max_bpc" connector property

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



[Why]
Many panels support more than 8bpc but some modes are unavailable while
running at greater than 8bpc due to DP/HDMI bandwidth constraints.

Support for more than 8bpc was added recently in the driver but it's
defaults to the maximum supported bpc - locking out these modes.

This should be a user configurable option such that the user can select
what bpc configuration they would like.

[How]
Introduce the "max_bpc" connector property so the user can limit the
maximum bpc for the panel. It ranges from 8 to 16.

This doesn't directly set the preferred bpc for the panel but this
convetion is already in use for other drivers.
