Hi all, We are currently querying supported modifiers only from gpu drivers via EGL_EXT_image_dma_buf_modifiers extension. But we should also query and advertise modifiers which are supported by DRM device. We are already getting this information via IN_FORMATS of a drm plane.
IMO, it is not enough to just query and advertise every supported format and modifiers combination to applications. Applications can easily choose a format, which is only supported by GPU device and not DRM device. In the end, this would force us to use gpu for composition. We should mark modifiers of DRM device as preferred ones. This would require modifying linux-dmabuf protocol. What do you think?
