If no preferred value for bits-per-pixel has been given, fall back to 32. Never use the preferred depth. The color depth is the number of color/alpha bits per pixel, while bpp is the overall number of bits in most cases. Most noteworthy, XRGB8888 has a depth of 24 and a bpp value of 32. Using depth for bpp would make the value 24 as well and format selection in fbdev helpers fails. Unfortunately XRGB8888 is the most common format and the old heuristic therefore fails for most of the drivers (unless they implement the 24-bit RGB888 format). Picking a bpp of 32 will later on result in a default depth of 24 and the format XRGB8888. As XRGB8888 is the default format for most of the current and legacy graphics stack, all drivers must support it. So it is the safe choice. v2: * fix commit-message typo (Javier) Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javierm@redhat.com> Acked-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20221123115348.2521-8-tzimmermann@suse.de
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 Restructured Text 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.
