[PATCH v2 11/14] drm/solomon: ssd16xx: support panels whose RAM X order is reversed
From: Devarsh Thakkar
Date: Sun Sep 27 2026 - 14:28:08 EST
From: LiangCheng Wang <zaq14760@xxxxxxxxx>
Some panels have their first column wired to the controller's last source
output, so the controller scans RAM X in the opposite direction and the
image comes out horizontally mirrored. SSD1677 offers no source-direction
control that I could find - command 0x01 only affects the gate side - so it
has to be handled while packing the framebuffer.
Add an x_mirror flag to struct ssd16xx_device_config and honour it in both
branches of ssd16xx_convert_fb_to_1bpp(): the scanline order in the
landscape path, and the inner loop in the portrait one, which is what maps
to RAM X there. The DRM_FORMAT_R1 memcpy fast path cannot mirror while
copying, so it is skipped when the flag is set. Enable it for the
pixpaper-426m entry.
Tested on a Mayqueen PIXPAPER 4.26m (SSD1677, 800x480): a pattern with four
differently sized corner blocks renders correctly at rotation 0, and a DT
rotation of 90 gives a clean clockwise portrait. Doing only the landscape
path leaves the portrait output transposed.
