[PATCH/RFC 13/16] media: v4l2: Add 10-, 12- and 16-bpc BGR formats

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

 



Add three new pixel formats that store RGB data in BGR order with 10, 12
and 16 bits per component. They are used by the Xilinx Video Frame
Buffer Read/Write IP cores.

The nomenclature for these new formats follows the 8- and 16-bpp RGB
formats and the DRM format naming conventions, which differs from the
24- and 32-bpp RGB formats in V4L2.

As the number of bits per pixel grows quite large, a table with one
column per bit would be difficult to read. These formats are thus
described with one column per byte.

+More Than 8 Bits Per Component
+==============================
+
+These formats store an RGB triplet in four bytes or more. Similarly to the 8-
+and 16-bpp formats, they are named based on the order of the RGB components as
+seen in a word, which is then stored in memory in little endian byte order, and
+on the number of bits for each component.
