drm-framebuffer & Daemon-Modus

Daemon-Modus (drmfb_daemon)

Der Daemon empfängt Bilddaten über einen Unix Domain Socket (/tmp/drmfb.sock) und zeigt sie direkt auf dem Framebuffer an.

Starten

make
./drmfb_daemon -d /dev/dri/card0 -c HDMI-A-1 &

Bild senden

Sende ein Raw-Bild (z.B. 1920x1080, 32bit) an den Daemon:

cat bild.raw | socat - UNIX-CONNECT:/tmp/drmfb.sock

Bildformat

• Erwartet werden Rohdaten (z.B. XRGB8888 oder RGBA8888, je nach DRM-Konfiguration).
• Die Größe muss zur Auflösung des Framebuffers passen.

Beenden

Beende den Daemon mit kill <PID> oder pkill drmfb_daemon.

Demo

Einfarbiges Bild (z.B. rot) erzeugen und anzeigen:

python3 -c 'import sys; sys.stdout.buffer.write(b"\xff\x00\x00\xff" * (1920*1080))'> rot.raw
cat rot.raw | socat - UNIX-CONNECT:/tmp/drmfb.sock

A simple drm framebuffer tool to test drm devices. It takes data from stdin and will put it to the display.

Usage:

The behavior of this tool should be similar to what was possible with:

dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/fb0

The following would be the equivalent:

dd if=/dev/urandom | drm-framebuffer -d /dev/dri/card0 -c HDMI-A-1

Additionally you can request information about the display configuration with the following two commands:

The -s option can be used to force a specific resolution from the list received with -r:

dd if=/dev/urandom | drm-framebuffer -d /dev/dri/card0 -c DP-1 -s 36

This example sets the resolution to 640x480@60.

Dependencies

This tool requires libdrm to compile and work.

Compile

To compile the tool simply type "make" with a valid gcc set trough the environment variable CC. Also make sure the drm headers and libraries are available (LDFLAGS, CFLAGS).

Install

Copy the executable drm-framebuffer to your target and execute it.
