Do you mean that all vendors use the exact same mathematical algorithm (with only differences in operation precision at most)? If yes, good. If not, then we need to know where exactly in the virtual KMS color pipeline the operation happens, whether this can be generic or not. Does this also work the same regardless of pixel formats, dynamic range, color gamut, transfer functions etc. on both plane input and connector output configurations? > In terms of sharpness intensity adjustment, the plan is to provide > users with the ability to customize and regulate sharpness levels.

Naturally you will need to document all that, so that all drivers and vendors do the exact same thing. I did not see any actual documentation in the patch series yet, e.g. a reference to a specific algorithm. As Ville pointed out, there was also no specification at which point of the virtual color pipeline this operation will apply. Before/after DEGAMMA/CTM/GAMMA/scaling in plane/blending/CRTC? Is the property being added to the list in https://dri.freedesktop.org/docs/drm/gpu/drm-kms.html#standard-crtc-properties or where-ever it belongs?
