If bt timing has REDUCED_FPS flag set, then reduce the frame rate
by factor of 1000 / 1001. For vivid, timeperframe_vid_out indicates
the frame timings used by video out thread. The timeperframe_vid_out
is derived from pixel clock. Adjusting the timeperframe_vid_out by
scaling down pixel clock with factor of 1000 / 1001.

The reduced fps is supported for CVT timings if reduced blanking v2
(indicated by vsync = 8) is true. For CEA861 timings, reduced fps is
supported if V4L2_DV_FL_CAN_REDUCE_FPS flag is true. For GTF timings,
reduced fps is not supported.

The reduced fps will allow refresh rates like 29.97, 59.94 etc.

Hi Prashant,

Sorry for the late review, but here it is (finally):

I propose that you add a static inline helper function to v4l2-dv-timings.h
to test for reduced blanking v2. This condition is way too magical...

If you add such a helper, then you should check if there is existing code
that could switch to this helper.

Bad indentation (one tab too far to the right).

No need for the parenthesis around bt->pixelclock * 1000.

This isn't quite right. This doesn't support V4L2_DV_BT_DMT_4096X2160P60_RB
which is a CVT format with reduced blanking v2 and so it should support reduced
fps.

In theory the 'if' above should check for both the V4L2_DV_FL_CAN_REDUCE_FPS and
for CVT RB v2 (using the helper function I've proposed). However, that would
cause weird behavior with the V4L2_DV_BT_DMT_4096X2160P59_94_RB timings since
these are already reduced fps.

I think the best approach is to add V4L2_DV_FL_CAN_REDUCE_FPS to the
V4L2_DV_BT_DMT_4096X2160P60_RB definition in v4l2-dv-timings.h.

That way the code above is unchanged, and it will work as expected with
V4L2_DV_BT_DMT_4096X2160P60_RB.

Regards,

	Hans
