Hi Dmitry,

Thank you for the patch.

This seems fragile to me. We don't document how userspace determines which 
planes need to be specified here, and we don't document what happens if a 
plane underneath the destination plane is not specified in the mask. More 
precise documentation is needed if we want to use such a property.

It also seems quite complex. Is an explicit plane mask really the best option 
? What's the reason why planes couldn't be handled ? How do drivers determine 
that ?

A link to the drm_plane_colorkey_mode enum documentation would be useful.

While you're defining the concept of source and destination planes, it's not 
clear from the documentation how all this maps to the usual source and 
destination color keying concepts. I think that should be documented as well 
or users will be confused. Examples could help in this area.

If it's uAPI, should it be moved to include/uapi/drm/ ?

Do you mean "No color keying" ?

How do we handle hardware that performs configurable color replacement instead 
of a fixed fully transparency ? That was included in my original proposal and 
available in R-Car hardware.

This one, however, shouldn't be part of the uAPI as it will change when we 
will add new modes.

As the divisor is a power of two, could we use masking instead of a division ? 
Or do you expect the compiler to optimize it properly ?

Would the following be simpler to read and a bit more efficient as it avoids 
the division ?

static inline u16 __drm_colorkey_extract_component(u64 ckey64, 
                                                   unsigned int shift, 
                                                   unsigned int nbits)
{       
        u16 mask = (1 << (16 - nbits)) - 1;
        
        return ((u16)(ckey >> shift) + mask) >> (16 - nbits);
}

#define drm_colorkey_extract_component(ckey64, comp_name, nbits) \
        __drm_colorkey_extract_component(ckey64, __drm_ckey_ ## comp_name ## 
_shift, nbits)
