Subject: [PATCH] drm/sitronix/st7586: fix bad pixel data due to byte swap
Date: Sat, 28 Feb 2026 22:30:30 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260228-drm-mipi-dbi-fix-st7586-byte-swap-v1-1-e78f6c24cd28@baylibre.com> (raw)

Correctly set dbi->write_memory_bpw for the ST7586 driver. This driver
is for a monochrome display that has an unusual data format, so the
default value set in mipi_dbi_spi_init() is not correct simply because
this controller is non-standard.

Previously, we were using dbi->swap_bytes to make the same sort of
workaround, but it was removed in the same commit that added
dbi->write_memory_bpw, so we need to use the latter now to have the
correct behavior.

This fixes every 3 columns of pixels being swapped on the display. There
are 3 pixels per byte, so the byte swap caused this effect.

Fixes: df3fb27a74a4 ("drm/mipi-dbi: Make bits per word configurable for pixel transfers")
