Hi Helge, Thank you for maintaining fbdev! The PlayStation 2 port makes heavy use of it and its acceleration features[1], including tiling operations: info->flags = FBINFO_DEFAULT | FBINFO_HWACCEL_COPYAREA | FBINFO_HWACCEL_FILLRECT | FBINFO_HWACCEL_IMAGEBLIT | FBINFO_HWACCEL_XPAN | FBINFO_HWACCEL_YPAN | FBINFO_HWACCEL_YWRAP | FBINFO_PARTIAL_PAN_OK | FBINFO_READS_FAST; info->flags |= FBINFO_MISC_TILEBLITTING; info->tileops = &tileops; I attempted a DRM port[2], but my impression is that the DRM subsystem has grave problems in that - fbset command timing mode settings are ignored; - attempts to set modes with /sys/class/graphics/fb0/mode are ignored; - /sys/class/graphics/fb0/modes outputs incorrect refresh rates and types; - relevant modes are missing in /sys/class/graphics/fb0/modes; - the standard DRM video modes seem to mix up the sync and front porch timings in struct drm_display_mode but this remains to be confirmed; - the DRM seems to rely heavily on EDID to negotiate a video resolution, but EDID isn't available with vintage analogue display hardware. This is only for a (fast and efficient) text console. My impression is also that the DRM wouldn't do more than displaying a text console, and perhaps an inefficient virtual frame buffer, due to the nature of the Graphics Synthesizer hardware. The complete set of features of the Graphics Synthesizer, and related vector and image processors, seem to go beyond what the DRM subsystem can offer in its current form. I admit that there may possibilities that I haven't seen yet, though. :-) Some background on the Graphics Synthesizer can be found in [3], as well as in official documentation[4][5]. Many of its command primitives are defined in [6][7], and there is more to it with the data paths from various co-processors, etc. Note: The fbdev patch below was, at the time, submitted in a series of 18 patches related to fbdev for PlayStation 2. See the complete ps2fb.c[1].
