+ * Enable the optimization to adjust front porch timing to achieve seamless
+ * mode change experience when setting a freesync supported mode for which full
+ * modeset is not needed.
+ *
+ * The Display Core will add a set of modes derived from the base FreeSync
+ * video mode into the corresponding connector's mode list based on commonly
+ * used refresh rates and VRR range of the connected display, when users enable
+ * this feature. From the userspace perspective, they can see a seamless mode
+ * change experience when the change between different refresh rates under the
+ * same resolution. Additionally, userspace applications such as Video playback
+ * can read this modeset list and change the refresh rate based on the video
+ * frame rate. Finally, the userspace can also derive an appropriate mode for a
+ * particular refresh rate based on the FreeSync Mode and add it to the
+ * connector's mode list.
+ *
+ * Note: This is an experimental feature.
+ *
* The default value: 0 (off).
