The hardware supports dithering on TCON channel 0 which is used for LCD panels. Dithering is a method of approximating a color from a mixture of other colors when the required color isn't available. It reduces color banding artifacts that can be observed when displaying gradients (e.g. grayscale gradients). This may occur when the image that needs to be displayed is 24-bit but the LCD panel is a lower bit depth and does not perform dithering on its own.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
