/**
+ * DOC: Variable refresh properties
+ *
+ * Variable refresh rate capable displays can dynamically adjust their
+ * refresh rate by extending the duration of their vertical front porch
+ * until page flip or timeout occurs. This can reduce or remove stuttering
+ * and latency in scenarios where the page flip does not align with the
+ * vblank interval.
+ *
+ * An example scenario would be an application flipping at a constant rate
+ * of 48Hz on a 60Hz display. The page flip will frequently miss the vblank
+ * interval and the same contents will be displayed twice. This can be
+ * observed as stuttering for content with motion.
+ *
+ * If variable refresh rate was active on a display that supported a
+ * variable refresh range from 35Hz to 60Hz no stuttering would be observable
+ * for the example scenario. The minimum supported variable refresh rate of
+ * 35Hz is below the page flip frequency and the vertical front porch can
+ * be extended until the page flip occurs. The vblank interval will be
+ * directly aligned to the page flip rate.
+ *
+ * Not all userspace content is suitable for use with variable refresh rate.
+ * Large and frequent changes in vertical front porch duration may worsen
+ * perceived stuttering for input sensitive applications.
+ *
+ * Panel brightness will also vary with vertical front porch duration. Some
+ * panels may have noticeable differences in brightness between the minimum
+ * vertical front porch duration and the maximum vertical front porch duration.
+ * Large and frequent changes in vertical front porch duration may produce
+ * observable flickering for such panels.
+ *
+ * Userspace control for variable refresh rate is supported via properties
+ * on the &drm_connector and &drm_crtc objects.
+ *
+ * "vrr_capable":
+ * Optional &drm_connector boolean property that drivers should attach
+ * with drm_connector_attach_vrr_capable_property() on connectors that
+ * could support variable refresh rates. Drivers should update the
+ * property value by calling drm_connector_set_vrr_capable_property().
+ *
+ * Absence of the property should indicate absence of support.
+ *
+ * "vrr_enabled":
+ * Default &drm_crtc boolean property that notifies the driver that the
+ * content on the CRTC is suitable for variable refresh rate presentation.
+ * The driver will take this property as a hint to enable variable
+ * refresh rate support if the receiver supports it, ie. if the
+ * "vrr_capable" property is true on the &drm_connector object. The
+ * vertical front porch duration will be extended until page-flip or
+ * timeout when enabled.
+ *
+ * The minimum vertical front porch duration is defined as the vertical
+ * front porch duration for the current mode.
+ *
+ * The maximum vertical front porch duration is greater than or equal to
+ * the minimum vertical front porch duration. The duration is derived
+ * from the minimum supported variable refresh rate for the connector.
+ *
+ * The driver may place further restrictions within these minimum
+ * and maximum bounds.
+ *
+ * The semantics for the vertical blank timestamp differ when
+ * variable refresh rate is active. The vertical blank timestamp
+ * is defined to be an estimate using the current mode's fixed
+ * refresh rate timings. The semantics for the page-flip event
+ * timestamp remain the same.
