The following happened when migrating an old fbdev driver to DRM:

The Integrator/CP PL111 supports 16BPP but only ARGB1555/ABGR1555
or XRGB1555/XBGR1555 i.e. the maximum depth is 15.

This makes the initialization of the framebuffer fail since
the code in drm_fb_helper_single_fb_probe() assigns the same value
to sizes.surface_bpp and sizes.surface_depth. I.e. it simply assumes
a 1-to-1 mapping between BPP and depth, which is true in most cases
but typically not for this hardware.

To support the odd case of a driver supporting 16BPP with only 15
bits of depth, this patch will make the code loop over the formats
supported on the primary plane and cap the depth to the maximum
supported.

On the PL110 Integrator, this makes drm_mode_legacy_fb_format()
select DRM_FORMAT_XRGB1555 which is acceptable for this driver, and
thus we get framebuffer, penguin and console on the Integrator/CP.

I think this should look at crtc->primary for each of the crtcs managed
by the fb_helper.

Also this probably shouldn't look at YUV formats at all?

I do wonder if instead we should just have the driver specify the
pixel format explicitly instead of trying to guess based on bpp?

Can drm_mode_config.preferred_depth be used for this? The comment says that
it is used for dumb buffers and drm_mode_create_dumb_ioctl() does this:
    cpp = DIV_ROUND_UP(args->bpp, 8);

So it looks like it should be possible to do preferred_depth=15.


Hmm, maybe not. vc4 sets preferred_depth=24, should that be RGB888 or
XRGB8888? The driver prefers 32bpp, but would end up with 24bpp.

I'm working on generic fbdev emulation coupled with a in-kernel client
api, so I'm interested in a solution to this for the client api.
