This patch adds a new structure in DRM layer for Gamma color correction.
This structure will be used by all user space agents to configure
appropriate Gamma precision and Gamma level.

struct drm_intel_gamma {
        __u32 gamma_level;
	(The gamma_level variable indicates if the Gamma correction is to be
	applied on Pipe/plane)

I'm not sure I understand the need for this one...you're getting the
set_property call against a specific DRM object, so I don't think there
should be any confusion at that point about what the values apply to?

Actually that is for the get_property path. If you have a look at the design document, there is a provision to query the current applied gamma which can be pipe/plane level. Hence keeping this.

        __u32 gamma_precision;
	(The Gamma precision indicates the Gamma mode to be applied)

	Supported precisions are -
	#define I915_GAMMA_PRECISION_UNKNOWN	0
	#define I915_GAMMA_PRECISION_CURRENT	0xFFFFFFFF
	#define I915_GAMMA_PRECISION_LEGACY	(1 << 0)
	#define I915_GAMMA_PRECISION_10BIT	(1 << 1)
	#define I915_GAMMA_PRECISION_12BIT	(1 << 2)
	#define I915_GAMMA_PRECISION_14BIT	(1 << 3)
	#define I915_GAMMA_PRECISION_16BIT	(1 << 4)

I feel like the precision would work better as a separate enum property
rather than being part of your blob; I think it would be cleaner if your
blob only held the actual values if possible.

Again, this would be required for the get_property path. If we create a separate property for this, the design might be very complex.

This is the current implementation:
1. Pack the correction values and configurations in blob()
2. call a create_blob() and get the blob_id
3. do a set_porperty() with the blob_id
4. set_property will find this blob, with the blob_id and apply corrections.

Adding a separate property for gamma_level will add one more state here, which will make it further complex. Do you agree ?

	__u32 num_samples;
	(The num_samples indicates the number of Gamma correction
	coefficients)
	__u32 reserved;
	__u16 values[0];
	(An array of size 0, to accommodate the "num_samples" number of
	R16G16B16 pixels, dynamically)
};

v2: Addressing Daniel Stone's comment, added a variable sized array to
carry Gamma correction values as blob property.

The flags aren't described in your commit message...what are they used
for?  I guess it will become more clear as I read farther through your
patch series.


Matt
We are currently using this to define gamma/degamma as such, but yes I agree that we have added this for future / undefined last minute usages, and can be removed.
