That could confuse userspace though, enabling the graphics plane with XRGB would work, and then enabling the video plane with global alpha would fail. > Guess I'll need assistance from AMD/Xilinx to completely implement the > XRGB modes. The blender can ignore the alpha channel of the graphics plane for formats that have no alpha channel. It would be nice if there was a bit to force that behaviour for 32-bit RGB too, but I couldn't find any :-( It's worth asking though. > (For our application, this patch is sufficient as it solves the issues > like X11 not starting up, OpenGL not working and horrendously slow > scaling performance) > > >> }, { > >> .drm_fmt = DRM_FORMAT_RGBA8888, > >> .buf_fmt = ZYNQMP_DISP_AV_BUF_FMT_NL_GFX_ABGR8888, -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart
