Re: [PATCH v8 4/4] NOTFORMERGE: drm/logicvc: Add plane colorkey support

[Ilia Mirkin]

FWIW this is something I added, hoping it was going to get used at
some point, but I never followed up with support in xf86-video-nouveau
for Xv. At this point, I'm not sure I ever will. I encoded the
"enabled" part into the value with a high bit (1<<24) -- not sure that
was such a great idea. All NVIDIA hardware supports colorkey (and not
actual alpha, until the very latest GPUs - Volta/Turing families),
although my implementation only covers the pre-G80 series (i.e. DX9
and earlier GPUs - pre-2008). Should a determination of usefulness be
reached, it would be easy to implement on the remainder though.

Cheers,
