MIPI DCS write/set commands have 8 bit parameters except for the write_memory commands where it depends on the pixel format. drm_mipi_dbi does currently only support RGB565 which is 16-bit and it has to make sure that the pixels enters the SPI bus in big endian format since the MIPI DBI spec doesn't have support for little endian. drm_mipi_dbi is optimized for DBI interface option 3 which means that the 16-bit bytes are swapped by the upper layer if the SPI bus does not support 16 bits per word, signified by the swap_bytes member. In order to support both 16-bit and 24-bit pixel transfers we need a way to tell the DBI command layer the format of the buffer. Add a write_memory_bpw member that the upper layer can use to tell how many bits per word to use for the SPI transfer. v4: - Expand the commit message (Dmitry) Reviewed-by: Dmitry Baryshkov <dmitry.baryshkov@linaro.org> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20240604-panel-mipi-dbi-rgb666-v4-3-d7c2bcb9b78d@tronnes.org Signed-off-by: Noralf Trønnes <noralf@tronnes.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
