This is an attempt to revive the color space conversation that started here [1] and was materialized with the color encoding and color range properties for converting YUV2RGB, the last version of this patch series is here [2]. However, we still need a way of specifing the color gamut and transfer function(gamma) for a given plane, in order to be sure that the blending is done in the same domain space, which is not an issue for similar gammuts, but not so good when mixing wider gamuts like Rec2020 and DCI-P3 with narrow ones. In consequence, the userspace needs to control what is the color gamut used for blending. On Mali DP hardware, a complete color processing pipeline for a plane looks like this: YUV2RGB -> DEGAMA -> RGB2RGB(Gammut conv) -> GAMMA. Of course, depending on hardware generation some of this elements are not present or disabled if we are dealing with a RGB buffer already in linear space. But it's up to the usperspace to decide what it wants when the hardware doesn't provide full support for its needs. What this patchset proposes is to add plane degamma, ctm and gamma properties to be applied in this order after the yuv2rgb conversion specified by the color encoding property[2]. We already have this sort of pipeline(degamma, ctm, gamma) at the other end of a CRTC, so it wouldn't be a totaly new interface for userspaces to figure it out how to use. There are still some things to be done before getting this patchset in mergeable shape like: mali-dp driver implementation, real userspace (drm_hwcomposer is the likely candidate here, but I'm open to suggestions here), reuse some of the code for both crtc and plane. But first, I would like to see what everybody things about this idea, or if it has a different perspective of how this should be handled.
