[libcamera-devel] [PATCH v6] cam: drm: Support /dev/dri cards other than 0

Existing code is hardcoded to card0. Since recent fedora upgrades, we
have noticed on more than one machine that card1 is present as the
lowest numbered device, could theoretically be higher. This technique
tries every file starting with card and continue only when we have
successfully opened one. These devices with card1 as the lowest device
were simply failing when they do not see a /dev/dri/card0 file present.

Changes in v6:
- Spaces to tabs
- Remove a brace for single line if statement

Changes in v5:
- Split into openCard function
- ret initialized to -ENOENT, in case directory is open with no card*
- Add another string to simplify

Changes in v4:
- added Tested-by tag
- std::stringified things
- changed if conditions to reduce indentations
- constexpr sizes now don't include null terminator
- just return -ENOENT if no device was successfully opened.

Changes in v3:
- switch back to memcpy, strncpy causing false compiler issue

Changes in v2:
- return if no valid card found, or directory could not be opened etc.
- memcpy to strncpy for safety
- only adjust the numerical bytes for each iteration of loop since
  /dev/dri/card won't change
- initialize ret to zero
