Can't 100% guarantee that in general as the display and encoder device
might be from different vendors. However, if the flag is not set then
it was not set on modeset either. So the KMS driver has to depend on
implicit modifiers (i.e. a default for all shared images or some out
of band info). With suitably matched devices this should always work.
In particular the case where a user-specified modifier could
conceivably help we have a new encoder (supports modifiers) but old
KMS (doesn't support modifiers). That means the compositor+driver
userspace had to set the correct implicit modifier for KMS to work,
and the encoder should be able to pick that up as long as you don't
feed it a real modifier (so you really want DRM_FORMAT_MOD_INVALID in
this case). So it doesn't really help ... In fact it can confuse
things as with an user-specified (non-INVALID) modifier the encoder
doesn't know to look at the implicit modifier.
As an aside, your mention of the user-supplied-modifier made me notice
I probably broke that by always setting it to DRM_FORMAT_MOD_INVALID
in the GetFB path ... Will delete that in the V2.
