User-space should avoid parsing EDIDs for metadata already exposed via other KMS interfaces and properties. For instance, user-space should not try to extract a list of modes from the EDID: the kernel might mutate the mode list (because of link capabilities or quirks for instance). Other metadata not exposed by KMS can be parsed by user-space. This includes for instance monitor identification (make/model/serial) and supported color-spaces. v2: add short explanation why user-space shouldn't do this (Brian) Signed-off-by: Simon Ser <contact@emersion.fr> Suggested-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Reviewed-by: Brian Starkey <brian.starkey@arm.com> Acked-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Cc: Pekka Paalanen <pekka.paalanen@collabora.co.uk> Cc: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/V_APW3gKRhljvcmT28tGV3JkP7qW9Z7h45I-s2wiJvYhaaveCpYpg3tztZPsZVV2KV1NC7rUx08IUUgCJXzdRrWCsEGB0czq4ZozpdyVFLs=@emersion.fr |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
