That's great, I will test it on Ubuntu + Nouveau x86_64 and Batocera-Linux.
I'm not interested in Raspberry Pi. I see you have some commit in RaspberryPi/Linux. Will this go to some Nouveau driver, so I can test it on x86_64 machine? I have some basic experience compiling Linux kernel (nvidia driver) from 10 years ago.
Scaling is not the way to go because I do this to not use scaling. I could use 640x480 and scale 320x240 to that mode, right? That is what old retrogaming laptop LCD screens do (you can even enable this in their BIOS).
More appropriate is to preserve pixel ratio and have some border. So you mostly select the closest resolution and live with small border on the edge. Then you can crop it on analog TV using real world dials :-)
I joined Nouveau developer list here. I don't know why we have like 40 email recipients here and now we discuss Raspberry. Anyway, I would like to see this in Nouveau, so I could test it on several Geforce devices with TV out and Windows Media Center devices such as Acer iDEA 510. Such devices have SCART and component out, they did cost quite a lot and nowadays you can get them for 30-50 EUR. It is cheaper that Raspberry with all the additional cables and have better video output quality (RGB is better than CVBS).
There was NVTV utility that can do this in Linux, but that works only for Geforce 3 and older. That would make sense if you get Intel Core Quad motherboard with AGP slot (yes they do exist).
So I'm collecting various retrogaming hardware, have 8 computers on single KVM and CRT, several big box games and 20 computers total. Two Sony PVM's, one JVC, several CRT's and Samsung QLED with HDR as well. I prefer CRT :-)
So can we have this NVTV functionality or this above Rasp commit in Nouveau, so I can test it with Nvidia GPU even it takes me whole weekend to mess around?
When it works, I would like to present it to regular retrogaming community and give you a proper credit, of course.
Thank you,
Lukas

Hi Maxime,
I ran your v7 patchset on my Pi with Xorg, and the mode switching, as well as
the preferred mode handling, all work really well now!
I just noted that the downstream version of the vc4 driver still has inaccurate
field delays in vc4_crtc.c, which causes vertical lines to appear jagged (like
here: https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/4499762/112738569-385c3280-8f64-11eb-83c4-d671537af209.png).
This has been fixed downstream in
https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/pull/4241/commits/bc093f27bf2613ec93524fdc19e922dd7dd3d800,
but I guess that should be upstreamed separately...?
Anyway, it's unrelated to the changes made in this patchset, so... I'm not sure
if I'm qualified or allowed to do these, but just in case:
Tested-by: Mateusz Kwiatkowski <kfyatek+publicgit@xxxxxxxxx>
(that pretty much applies to parts 19-22 in general, I can respond to those
messages as well if you wish)
Best regards,
