[PATCH] drm_fourcc: Document linear modifier

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Not setting the fb modifiers flag is something different from setting
the fb modifiers to 0 (which means explicitly linear). We kinda failed
to document that properly. Spotted by Kristian.
