+ * Describe how to best pack/unpack pixels into/from the prescribed format.

+ * These are used for automatic code generation of pixel packing and unpacking
+ * routines (in compile time, e.g., u_format_access.py, or in runtime, like
+ * llvmpipe does).
+ *
+ * Thumb rule is: if you're not code generating pixel packing/unpacking then
+ * these are irrelevant for you.
+ *
+ * Note that this can be deduced from other values in util_format_description
+ * structure. This is by design, to make code generation of pixel
+ * packing/unpacking/sampling routines simple and efficient.
+ *
+ * XXX: This should be renamed to something like util_format_pack.
