Until now, simpledrm unconditionally advertised all formats that can be
supported natively as conversions. However, we don't actually have a
full conversion matrix of helpers. Although the list is arguably
provided to userspace in precedence order, userspace can pick something
out-of-order (and thus break when it shouldn't), or simply only support
a format that is unsupported (and thus think it can work, which results
in the appearance of a hang as FB blits fail later on, instead of the
initialization error you'd expect in this case).
Split up the format table into separate ones for each required subset,
and then pick one based on the native format. Also remove the
native<->conversion overlap check from the helper (which doesn't make
sense any more, since the native format is advertised anyway and this
way RGB565/RGB888 can share a format table), and instead print the same
message in simpledrm when the native format is not one for which we have
conversions at all.
This fixes a real user regression where the ?RGB2101010 support commit
started advertising it unconditionally where not supported, and KWin
decided to start to use it over the native format, but also the fixes
the spurious RGB565/RGB888 formats which have been wrongly
unconditionally advertised since the dawn of simpledrm.
Note: this patch is merged because splitting it into two patches, one
for the helper and one for simpledrm, would regress at the midpoint
regardless of the order. If simpledrm is changed first, that would break
working conversions to RGB565/RGB888 (since those share a table that
does not include the native formats). If the helper is changed first, it
would start spuriously advertising all conversion formats when the
native format doesn't have any supported conversions at all.

We currently have two DRM drivers that call drm_fb_build_fourcc_list():
simpledrm and ofdrm. I've been very careful to keep the format selection
in sync between them. (That's the reason why the helper exists at all.)
If the drivers start to use different logic, it will only become more
chaotic.
The format array of ofdrm is at [1]. At a minimum, ofdrm should get the
same fix as simpledrm.

Hi Thomas,
yes, the principle applies to all drivers except VKMS: do not emulate
anything in software unless it must be done to prevent kernel
regressions on specific hardware.
ofdrm should indeed do the same.

I trust you when you say that <native>->XRGB8888 is not enough. But
although I've read your replies, I still don't understand why this
switch is necessary.
Why don't we call drm_fb_build_fourcc_list() with the native
format/formats and let it append a number of formats, such as adding
XRGB888, adding ARGB8888 if necessary, adding ARGB2101010 if necessary.
Each with a elaborate comment why and which userspace needs the format. (?)
Something like
uint32_t conv_formats[] = {
DRM_FORMAT_XRGB8888, /* expected by old userspace */
DRM_FORMAT_ARGB8888, /* historically exposed and working */
0,
0,
0,
};
size_t conv_nformats = 2;
if (native_format == DRM_FORMAT_XRGB2101010)
conv_formats[conv_nformats++] = DRM_FORMAT_ARGB2101010; /* historically exposed and working */
if (native_format == DRM_FORMAT_XRGB8888) {
conv_formats[conv_nformats++] = DRM_FORMAT_RGB565; /* historically exposed and working */
conv_formats[conv_nformats++] = DRM_FORMAT_RGB888; /* historically exposed and working */
}
maybe?
Thanks,
pq
