For YCbCr I think the assumption is limited range everywhere. But I'm not really concerned about documenting struct members. What I'm talking about is the *uapi* docs. Surely userspace will want to know what the new property actually does so the uapi needs to be documented properly. And down the line some new driver might also implement the wrong behaviour if there is no clear specification. So I'm thinking (or perhaps hoping) the rule might be something like: - YCbCr limited range - RGB full range if "Broadcast RGB" property is not present - RGB full or limited range based on the "Broadcast RGB" property if it's present I think the "Broadcast RGB" property itself might also be lacking proper uapi docs, so that may need to be remedied as well. -- Ville Syrjälä Intel
