Previously, when the requested resolution required more memory than the pre-allocated framebuffer segment, the driver would:
- Destroy the existing working framebuffer
- Fail to create the new larger framebuffer
- Leave the display inactive with no way to recover
Actual behavior:
Once the resolution reaches a certain threshold (exceeding framebuffer capacity), the screen goes black. Reducing the resolution does not restore the display. The only recovery method is to restart the viogpu driver.
Expected behavior:
The display should either maintain the current resolution or gracefully reject unsupported resolutions.
