To human readers

"array of struct drm_format modifiers" is almost indistinguishable from
"array of struct drm_format_modifiers", especially given that
struct drm_format_modifier does exist.

And indeed the parameter passes an array of uint64_t rather than an array
of structs, but the first words of the comment suggest that it passes
an array of structs.

Unless I'm blind those two *are* indistinguishable :P

Looks like you have a broken version of git.

Now it seems to be saying it's passing in struct drm_format foo[].
That doesn't seem right either.

Good point!

array of modifiers applied to struct drm_format?

Not sure what this has to do with that struct?

I think I'd just make it "array of modifiers terminated by ..."

Hi Andrzej

Always good to have clear documentation.

@format_modifiers is an array of DRM_FORMAT_* which are defined as:

#define fourcc_code(a, b, c, d) ((__u32)(a) | ((__u32)(b) << 8) | \
                                 ((__u32)(c) << 16) | ((__u32)(d) << 24))


But the array is a u64[] like this:
static const u64 tegra20_modifiers[] = {
        DRM_FORMAT_MOD_LINEAR,
        DRM_FORMAT_MOD_NVIDIA_TEGRA_TILED,
        DRM_FORMAT_MOD_INVALID
};

So this is not struct drm_format.

Can you try to give it a shot more?
