fb_find_mode — finds a valid video mode

var
frame buffer user defined part of display
info
frame buffer info structure
mode_option
string video mode to find
db
video mode database
dbsize
size of db
default_mode
default video mode to fall back to
default_bpp
default color depth in bits per pixel
Finds a suitable video mode, starting with the specified mode
in mode_option
with fallback to default_mode
. If
default_mode
fails, all modes in the video mode database will
be tried.
Valid mode specifiers for mode_option
:
<xres>x<yres>[M][R][-<bpp>][@<refresh>][i][m] or <name>[-<bpp>][@<refresh>]
with <xres>, <yres>, <bpp> and <refresh> decimal numbers and <name> a string.
If 'M' is present after yres (and before refresh/bpp if present), the function will compute the timings using VESA(tm) Coordinated Video Timings (CVT). If 'R' is present after 'M', will compute with reduced blanking (for flatpanels). If 'i' is present, compute interlaced mode. If 'm' is present, add margins equal to 1.8% of xres rounded down to 8 pixels, and 1.8% of yres. The char 'i' and 'm' must be after 'M' and 'R'. Example:
1024x768MR-860m
- Reduced blank with margins at 60Hz.
The passed struct var
is _not_ cleared! This allows you
to supply values for e.g. the grayscale and accel_flags fields.
Returns zero for failure, 1 if using specified mode_option
,
2 if using specified mode_option
with an ignored refresh rate,
3 if default mode is used, 4 if fall back to any valid mode.
