From d50b3f43db739f03fcf8c0a00664b3d2fed0496e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Max Staudt Date: Mon, 13 Jun 2016 19:15:59 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] fbdev/efifb: Fix 16 color palette entry calculation When using efifb with a 16-bit (5:6:5) visual, fbcon's text is rendered in the wrong colors - e.g. text gray (#aaaaaa) is rendered as green (#50bc50) and neighboring pixels have slightly different values (such as #50bc78). The reason is that fbcon loads its 16 color palette through efifb_setcolreg(), which in turn calculates a 32-bit value to write into memory for each palette index. Until now, this code could only handle 8-bit visuals and didn't mask overlapping values when ORing them. With this patch, fbcon displays the correct colors when a qemu VM is booted in 16-bit mode (in GRUB: "set gfxpayload=800x600x16").
