From: Randy Li <ayaka at soulik.info>

The pixel formats used in Synpatics video smart platform
are too many. It is impossible to store them in fourcc
namespace.

+***************************
+Synaptics Pixel Format Modifiers
+***************************
+
+The tiled pixel formats in synpatics video smart platform have
+many variants. Here just list the most widely pixel format modifiers
+here. The value here should be the same as the one defined in the
+``drm_fourcc.h`` file.

+
+	* - Identifier
+	  - Code
+	  - Details
+	* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-MOD-SYNA-V4H1:
+
+	  - ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_MOD_SYNA_V4H1``
+	  - '0x0b00000000000101'
+	  - The plain uncompressed 8bits tile format. It sounds similar to
+	Intel's Y-tile. but it won't take any pixel from the next X direction
+	in a tile group. The line stride and image height must be aligned to
+	a multiple of 16. The height of chrominance plane would plus 8.
+	This modifier current would be in conjunction with ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV12``
+	or ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV12M``.
+	* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-MOD-SYNA-V4H3P8:
+
+	  - ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_MOD_SYNA_V4H3P8``
+	  - '0x0b00000000080301'
+	  - The plain uncompressed 10bits tile format. It stores pixel in 2D
+	3x4 tiles with a 8bits padding to each of tiles. Then tile is in a
+	128 bytes cache line. This modifier would be in conjunction with
+	``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV15``.
+	* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-MOD-SYNA-V4H1-64L4C:
+
+	  - ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_MOD_SYNA_V4H1_64L4C``
+	  - '0x0b00000026100101'
+	  - Compressed ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_MOD_SYNA_V4H1``. It stores 64x4 pixels
+	in 1x4 tiles. Each plane would request a meta plane (MTR plane) for
+	decompression. A MTR plane would have a 32 bytes parameters set.
+	* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-MOD-SYNA-V4H3P8-64L4C:
+
+	  - ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_MOD_SYNA_V4H3P8_64L4C``
+	  - '0x0b00000026180301'
+	  - Compressed ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_MOD_SYNA_V4H3``. It stores 48x4 pixels
+	in 3x4 tiles, echo tile would have 8 bits padding. Then a group of tiles
+	would be 16 bytes(128 bits).
+
+	Each plane would request a meta plane (MTR plane) for decompression.
+	A MTR plane would have a 32 bytes parameters set.
+
+	* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-MOD-SYNA-V4H1-128L128C:
+
+	  - ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_MOD_SYNA_V4H1_128L128C``
+	  - '0x0b00000077100101'
+	  - Compressed ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_MOD_SYNA_V4H1``. It stores 128x32 pixels
+	in 1x4 tiles. Each plane would request a meta plane (MTR plane) for
+	decompression. A MTR plane would have a 32 bytes parameters set.
+	* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-MOD-SYNA-V4H3P8-128L128C:
+
+	  - ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_MOD_SYNA_V4H3P8_128L128C``
+	  - '0x0b00000077180301'
+	  - Compressed ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_MOD_SYNA_V4H3``. It stores 96x128 pixels
+	in 3x4 tiles, echo tile would have 8 bits padding. Then a group of tiles
+	would be 16 KiB.
+
+	Each plane would request a meta plane (MTR plane) for
+	decompression. A MTR plane would have a 32 bytes parameters set.
