+ * @plane: drm plane
+ * @supported_modes: bitmask of supported modes, must include
+ *		     BIT(DRM_MODE_BLEND_PREMULTI)
+ *
+ * This creates a new property describing the blend mode.
+ *
+ * The property exposed to userspace is an enumeration property (see
+ * drm_property_create_enum()) called "pixel blend mode" and has the
+ * following enumeration values:
+ *
+ * DRM_MODE_BLEND_PIXEL_NONE: Blend formula that ignores the pixel alpha.
+ *	"None"
+ *	out.rgb = plane.alpha * pixel.rgb + (1 - plane.alpha) * bg.rgb
+ *
+ * DRM_MODE_BLEND_PREMULTI: Blend formula that assumes the pixel color values
+ *			    have been already pre-multiplied with the alpha
+ *			    channel values.
+ *	"Pre-multiplied"
+ *	out.rgb = plane.alpha * pixel.rgb +
+ *	      (1 - (plane.alpha * pixel.alpha)) * bg.rgb
+ *
+ * DRM_MODE_BLEND_COVERAGE: Blend formula that assumes the pixel color values
+ *			    have not been pre-multiplied and will do so when
+ *			    blending them to the background color values.
+ *	"Coverage"
+ *	out.rgb = plane.alpha * pixel.alpha * pixel.rgb +
+ *	      (1 - (plane.alpha * pixel.alpha)) * bg.rgb
+ *
+ * This property has no effect on formats with no pixel alpha, as pixel.alpha
+ * is assumed to be 1.0. If the plane does not expose the "alpha" property, then
+ * plane.alpha is assumed to be 1.0, otherwise, it is the value of the "alpha"
+ * property.
