So regardless on how you interpret the zpos property (0 being the top, or 0 being bottom), it doesn't give you accurate information on how the planes are ordered. > I know, actually here zpos doesn't mean order priority of layer, it is just real hardware layer. Exynos mixer has 3 hardware layer, graphic0 layer, graphic1 layer and video layer, so zpos 0 means graphic0 layer, zpos 1 means graphic1 layer, zpos 2 means video layer.
