[PATCH v4 0/4] Picture aspect ratio support in DRM layer

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

 



This patch series adds 4 patches.
- The first two patches add aspect ratio support in DRM layes
- Next two patches add new aspect ratios defined in CEA-861-F
  supported for HDMI 2.0 4k modes.

Adding aspect ratio support in DRM layer:
- The CEA videmodes contain aspect ratio information, which we
  parse when we read the modes from EDID. But while transforming
  user_mode to kernel_mode or viceversa, DRM layer lose this
  information.
- HDMI compliance testing for CEA modes, expects the AVI info frames
  to contain exact VIC no for the 'video mode under test'. Now CEA
  modes have different VIC for same modes but different aspect ratio
  for example:
        VIC 2 = 720x480@60 4:3
        VIC 3 = 720x480@60 16:9
  In this way, lack of aspect ratio information, can cause wrong VIC
  no in AVI IF, causing HDMI complaince test to fail.
- This patch set adds code, which embeds the aspect ratio information
  also in DRM video mode flags, and uses it while comparing two modes.

Adding new aspect ratios for HDMI 2.0
- CEA-861-F defines two new aspect ratios, to be used for 4k HDMI 2.0
  modes.
        - 64:27
        - 256:135
Last two patches in the series, adds code to handle these new
aspect ratios.

V2: Fixed review comments from Sean, Emil, Daniel
V3: Fixed review comments from Jim Bride, got r-b for all patches
V4: Added r-b from Jose for the series, and ack-by from Tomi on patch 3
