[libcamera-devel] [PATCH v4 08/11] libcamera: v4l2_videodevice: Map V4L2_PIX_FMT_GREY to DRM FourCC

[Laurent Pinchart]

DRM has a format for 8-bit greyscale data, DRM_FORMAT_R8. Despite the
'R' name, which comes from GL/Vulkan to mean single-channel data, the
format maps to greyscale for display. We can thus map it to
V4L2_PIX_FMT_GREY.
