For those Linux desktop users in the US needing another reason to be thankful this Thanksgiving, a huge and long-awaited accomplishment is ready for merging to the kernel: the Color Pipeline API that is important for HDR is ready for merging! As of last night the code is queued in DRM-Misc-Next for this years-in-the-making effort.

AMD, Igalia, Valve, and other stakeholders have long been working on the Color Pipeline API for advanced color management. Much of the focus has been on the AMDGPU driver and the hardware capabilities of recent AMD Radeon GPUs, since after all, much of the Valve-aligned and Valve-funded work has been focused on the needs of the Steam Deck and now Steam Machine too.

Fun fact, Igalia is a worker co-op that does open source development for hire.
