===================
8-bit Bayer formats
===================

Description
===========

These four pixel formats are raw sRGB / Bayer formats with 8 bits per
sample. Each sample is stored in a byte. Each n-pixel row contains n/2
green samples and n/2 blue or red samples, with alternating red and
blue rows. They are conventionally described as GRGR... BGBG...,
RGRG... GBGB..., etc. Below is an example of a small V4L2_PIX_FMT_SBGGR8 image:

**Byte Order.**
Each cell is one byte.

Implementation Notes

This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
