Not according to the docs I "fixed" a while ago.
But the same values are
used to restrict the size of the framebuffer creation. Hardware's
with scaling blocks can operate on framebuffers larger/smaller than
that of the pixel reader resolutions by scaling them down/up before
rendering.
This changes adds a separate framebuffer max width/height fields
in drm_mode_config to allow vendors to set if they are different
than that of the default max resolution values.
If you're going to change the meaning of the old values you need
to fix the drivers too.
Personally I don't see too much point in this since you most likely
want to validate all the other timings as well, and so likely need
some kind of mode_valid implementation anyway. Hence to validate
modes there's not much benefit of having global min/max values.

I believe you are referring to this patch.
I am primarily interested in the scaling scenario mentioned here. MSM
and a few other hardware have scaling block that are used both ways:
1) Where FB limits are larger than the display limits. Scalar blocks are
used to
downscale the framebuffers and render within display limits.
In this scenario, with your patch, are you suggesting the drivers
maintain the
display limits locally and use those values in fill_modes() /
mode_valid() to filter
out invalid modes explicitly instead of mode_config.max_width/height?
2) Where FB limits are smaller than display limits. Enforced for
performance reasons on low tier hardware.
It reduces the fetch bandwidth and uses post blending scalar block to
scale up the pixel stream
to match the display resolution.
Any suggestions on how this topology can be handled with a single set of
max/min values?
Thanks and Regards,
Jeykumar S.
Vendors setting these fields should fix their mode_set paths too
by filtering and validating the modes against the appropriate max
fields in their mode_valid() implementations.
