[PATCH v2 RFC 08/10] drm/fourcc: Document that single-channel "red" can be any color

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

 



Traditionally, the first channel has been called the "red" channel, but
the fourcc values for single-channel "red" formats can also be used for
other light-on-dark displays, like grayscale.
