Introduction +--------------- + +This document describes the frame buffer API used by applications to interact +with frame buffer devices. In-kernel APIs between device drivers and the frame +buffer core are not described. + +Due to a lack of documentation in the original frame buffer API, drivers +behaviours differ in subtle (and not so subtle) ways. This document describes +the recommended API implementation, but applications should be prepared to +deal with different behaviours. + + +1. Capabilities +--------------- + +Device and driver capabilities are reported in the fixed screen information +capabilities field. + +struct fb_fix_screeninfo { + ... + __u16 capabilities; /* see FB_CAP_* */ + ... +}; + +Application should use those capabilities to find out what features they can +expect from the device and driver. + +- FB_CAP_FOURCC + +The driver supports the four character code (FOURCC) based format setting API. +When supported, formats are configured using a FOURCC instead of manually +specifying color components layout. + + +2. Types and visuals +-------------------- + +Pixels are stored in memory in hardware-dependent formats. Applications need +to be aware of the pixel storage format in order to write image data to the +frame buffer memory in the format expected by the hardware. + +Formats are described by frame buffer types and visuals. Some visuals require +additional information, which are stored in the variable screen information +bits_per_pixel, grayscale, red, green, blue and transp fields. + +Visuals describe how color information is encoded and assembled to create +macropixels. Types describe how macropixels are stored in memory. The following +types and visuals are supported. + +- FB_TYPE_PACKED_PIXELS + +Macropixels are stored contiguously in a single plane. If the number of bits +per macropixel is not a multiple of 8, whether macropixels are padded to the +next multiple of 8 bits or packed together into bytes depends on the visual. + +Padding at end of lines may be present and is then reported through the fixed +screen information line_length field. + +- FB_TYPE_PLANES + +Macropixels are split across multiple planes. The number of planes is equal to +the number of bits per macropixel, with plane i'th storing i'th bit from all +macropixels. + +Planes are located contiguously in memory. + +- FB_TYPE_INTERLEAVED_PLANES + +Macropixels are split across multiple planes. The number of planes is equal to +the number of bits per macropixel, with plane i'th storing i'th bit from all +macropixels. + +Planes are interleaved in memory. The interleave factor, defined as the +distance in bytes between the beginning of two consecutive interleaved blocks +belonging to different planes, is stored in the fixed screen information +type_aux field. + +- FB_TYPE_FOURCC + +Macropixels are stored in memory as described by the format FOURCC identifier +stored in the variable screen information grayscale field. + +- FB_VISUAL_MONO01 + +Pixels are black or white and stored on a number of bits (typically one) +specified by the variable screen information bpp field. + +Black pixels are represented by all bits set to 1 and white pixels by all bits +set to 0. When the number of bits per pixel is smaller than 8, several pixels +are packed together in a byte. + +FB_VISUAL_MONO01 is currently used with FB_TYPE_PACKED_PIXELS only. + +- FB_VISUAL_MONO10 + +Pixels |
