Hi,

thanks for the update.

Unlike the original, deleted Matrox mga driver, the new mgag200 driver
has the XRGB frame-buffer byte swapped on big-endian "RISC"
systems. Fix by enabling byte swapping "PowerPC" OPMODE for any
__BIG_ENDIAN config.

V2: move to atomic_update
Tested on IBM 43p Model 150 (7043-150) running T2/Linux.

No need for a default branch IIRC.

This is the right place to set up the write mode.

But looking at the G200 docs, I found that the reset value for OPMODE has bit 18 set to 1. These writes clear the value. If that intentional?

For better style and compatibility, I suggest to first read the value and keep the reserved bit as-is.

u32 opmode

opmode = RREG32(MGAREG_OPMODE)
opmode &= ~GENMASK(17, 16)
opmode &= ~GENMASK(9, 8)
opmode &= ~GENMASK(3, 2)

switch (format) {
        opmode |= ...;
}

WREG32(OPMODE, opmode);

You can put that in a helper near set_startadd [1]

void mgag200_set_datasiz(struct mga_device *mdev, u32 format)
{
#if __BIG_ENDIAN
...
#endif
}

Then call that from atomic_update and it should be fine.
