+Bus formats in the display pipe
+===============================
+
+Various encoders in display controllers output the pixels in different
+formats. Circuits handling display connectors and hardwired panels also
+expect pixel input in various formats. We call these formats bus formats.
+
+Some bus formats are:
+
+Parallel
+--------
+
+rgb888
+ 8 parallel lines for red, green and blue respectively. There are
+ also lines for the pixel-clock, horizontal-sync, vertical-sync
+ and data-enable.
+
+rgb666
+ Same as rgb888, but with 6 lines per color.
+
+rgb565
+ Same as rgb888, but with 6 green lines and 5 red and blue lines.
+
+rgb444
+ Same as rgb888, but with 4 lines per color.
+
+
+LVDS
+----
+
+jeida-18
+jeida-24
+vesa-24
+ These are LVDS bus formats, see the data-mapping property in
+ panel/panel-lvds.txt for a description of these bus formats.
