[PATCH] fbdev: modedb: Fix misaligned fields in the 1920x1080-60 mode

From: Steffen Persvold <hidden>
Date: 2026-06-12 16:41:08
Also in: lkml, stable
Subsystem: framebuffer core, framebuffer layer, the rest · Maintainers: Simona Vetter, Helge Deller, Linus Torvalds

The 1920x1080@60 modedb entry has one too many initializers before
its sync field: a stray "0" occupies the sync slot, which shifts the
remaining values by one field. The entry therefore decodes as
sync = 0, vmode = FB_SYNC_HOR_HIGH_ACT | FB_SYNC_VERT_HIGH_ACT (0x3,
i.e. FB_VMODE_INTERLACED | FB_VMODE_DOUBLE), and flag =
FB_VMODE_NONINTERLACED, instead of the intended sync = positive H/V,
vmode = non-interlaced.

fb_find_mode() then returns a 1920x1080 mode flagged as interlaced +
doublescan with active-low syncs. Drivers that honour var->vmode and
var->sync when programming display timing enable doublescan and the
wrong sync polarity, corrupting the output.

Drop the stray initializer so sync and vmode hold their intended
values (positive H/V sync, non-interlaced), matching the adjacent
1920x1200 entry.
