Some drivers duplicate the logic to create a property to store a per-plane alpha. This is especially useful if we ever want to support extra protocols for Wayland like: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2017-August/034741.html Let's create a helper in order to move that to the core.

I don't think this premultiplied comment makes any sense. What are you saying it's premultiplied with? Maybe you mean that the output pixels will have both their color and alpha channels multiplied by this alpha? I'd just drop it. Reviewed-by: Eric Anholt <redacted> We should probably do this property for vc4 at some point, too. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
