Modify samples/drivers/display/src/main.c to handle ls0xx display.

  • Check the return value of display_get_capabilities() and log an error if it fails.
  • Ensure buf_desc.width is set to 400 if the display is ls0xx.
  • Add a condition to handle the ls0xx display specifically.

Update samples/drivers/display/README.rst to reflect the changes made in samples/drivers/display/src/main.c.

  • Add a section for the ls0xx display.
  • Provide an example device tree snippet for ls0xx display configuration.

@vishwamartur thanks for the pull request. I don't understand the problem this is fixing, can you elaborate? Are you experiencing actual issues with the ls0xx, e.g. get_capabilities returning an error? 🤔

Hi @kartben,

Thank you for your patience and feedback. Let me elaborate on the motivation and changes in this PR:

Issue Addressed:
The current ls0xx display driver sample lacks proper handling for specific scenarios:

Error Handling for display_get_capabilities():
If display_get_capabilities() fails, it may lead to undefined behavior. This PR introduces error handling by logging the error and aborting execution if the call fails.
Specific ls0xx Attribute Handling:
The buf_desc.width needs to be set to 400 explicitly for the ls0xx display to function correctly. Without this, rendering issues may occur.
Changes Made:
Code Updates:
Added error handling for display_get_capabilities() in main.c.
Included a specific condition to set buf_desc.width to 400 for the ls0xx display.
Documentation Updates:
Updated README.rst to include a section for the ls0xx display.
Provided an example device tree snippet to assist users in configuring the ls0xx display.
Pending Issues:
I noticed the compliance check flags for Sphinx lint errors (default-role issue in README.rst). I'll resolve these by updating inline literals to use double backticks. Additionally, I'll run clang-format to address any formatting issues in main.c.

Let me know if there are additional improvements you'd like to see!

Hi @vishwamartur -- I don't know if your reply is generated by ChatGPT or similar, but it's really hard to parse :)

  • display_get_capabilities shouldn't be failing, hence why I'm asking what you're trying to fix there. The function is returning void, so it's not even returning an error code :)
  • hard coding a screen size that's specific to a particular screen is not correct either. It's expected that people will be configured their devicetree correctly to match the hardware they're using.

I will be closing this issue/PR but feel free to re-open if I missed something. Thank you!
