[PATCH libdrm v3 0/9] util, modetest: Add support for low-color frame buffer formats

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

 



	Hi all,

A long outstanding issue with the DRM subsystem has been the lack of
support for low-color displays, as used typically on older desktop
systems, and on small embedded displays.

This patch series adds support for color-indexed frame buffer formats
with 2, 4, and 16 colors.  It has been tested on ARAnyM using a
work-in-progress Atari DRM driver.

Changes compared to v2[1]:
  - Add Acked-by,
  - Add Wikipedia link,
  - Dropped "[RFC] drm_fourcc: Add DRM_FORMAT_C[124]", as these were
    added in commit 329eebcf32793361 ("drm_fourcc: sync drm_fourcc with
    latest drm-next kernel") in libdrm-2.4.115.

Changes compared to v1[2]:
  - SMPTE color LUT accuracy,
  - Factor out smpte color LUT,
  - Restructure patches,
  - Improve descriptions.
  - Store number of colors for indexed formats,
  - Add SMPTE pattern support for the C1 and C2 formats.

I have also opened a merge request at [3].

Thanks for your comments!

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
