Some unpackers are misnamed #8021
Description
Activity
This is related to #8019, because I wrote those packers in the correct order, which is actually the opposite of the unpackers.
Here's the names they should be based on what they actually do and the format specified in
Unpack.c.Pillow/src/libImaging/Unpack.c
Lines 1534 to 1543 in 824db71
/* raw mode syntax is "<mode>;<bits><flags>" where "bits" defaults depending on mode (1 for "1", 8 for "P" and "L", etc), and "flags" should be given in alphabetical order. if both bits and flags have their default values, the ; should be left out */ /* flags: "I" inverted data; "R" reversed bit order; "B" big endian byte order (default is little endian); "L" line interleave, "S" signed, "F" floating point */ /* exception: rawmodes "I" and "F" are always native endian byte order */ RGB;15 → XBGR;1555
RGB;16 → BGR;565
BGR;5 → XRGB;1555
BGR;15 → XRGB;1555
BGR;16 → RGB;565
RGB;4B → XBGR;4
RGBA;4B → ABGR;4
RGBA;15 → ARGB;1555
BGRA;15 → ABGR;1555Unfortunately the specified format doesn't quite work because the bands in these modes aren't all the same size, so I just listed all of the sizes for those modes.
The good thing about listing out the band sizes though is that those names aren't already being used, so I could add all of them as "new" rawmodes and the old ones could be deprecated without interfering with one another.
There's a slightly awkward overlap in code that would change with this and with #7965.
- changed the title
[-]Some of the unpackers are misnamed[/-][+]Some unpackers are misnamed[/+]on Apr 27, 2024 I have a branch for these changes, but it's based on #8026 because it affects the same test file.
That branch has now become #8158
RGB15 actually reads data as XBGR (XBBBBBGGGGGRRRRR).

etc.
Basically, all of the unpackers that read less than 8 bits per band appear to be backwards.
