I've written an UEFI_APPLICATION that shows the current GOP mode information.
This is example output from it, when it is run in the UEFI shell of
OVMF under QEMU:
```
FS0:\> GOPInfo.efi
Framebuffer base: 0000000080000000
Framebuffer size: 0000000000500000

Current mode: 14
Version: 0
Resolution: 1280x1024
Pixel format: 1
Pixel bitmask: R(0xAFAFAFAF) G(0xAFAFAFAF) B(0xAFAFAFAF)
PixelsPerScanLine: 1280
```
My question is about the `Pixel bitmask` string. According to the UEFI
specification it is defined like this:
```
typedef struct {
UINT32 RedMask;
UINT32 GreenMask;
UINT32 BlueMask;
UINT32 ReservedMask;
} EFI_PIXEL_BITMASK;

If a bit is set in RedMask, GreenMask, or BlueMask then those bits of
the pixel represent the corresponding color. Bits in RedMask,
GreenMask, BlueMask, and ReserverdMask must not overlap bit positions.
The values for the red, green, and blue components in the bit mask
represent the color intensity. The color intensities must increase as
the color values for a each color mask increase with a minimum
intensity of all bits in a color mask clear to a maximum intensity of
all bits in a color mask set.
```

From this definition I was expecting something like this:
```
Pixel bitmask: R(0x00FF0000) G(0x0000FF00) B(0x000000FF)
```
But my program gives me this:
```
Pixel bitmask: R(0xAFAFAFAF) G(0xAFAFAFAF) B(0xAFAFAFAF)
```
What does it mean?

Just in case I did something silly here is a code of my simple app:
```
VOID PrintGOPModeInfo(EFI_GRAPHICS_OUTPUT_MODE_INFORMATION* GOPModeInfo)
{
Print(L"Version: %x\n", GOPModeInfo->Version);
Print(L"Resolution: %dx%d\n", GOPModeInfo->HorizontalResolution,
GOPModeInfo->VerticalResolution);
Print(L"Pixel format: %d\n", GOPModeInfo->PixelFormat);
Print(L"Pixel bitmask: R(0x%08x) G(0x%08x) B(0x%08x)\n",
GOPModeInfo->PixelInformation.RedMask,

GOPModeInfo->PixelInformation.GreenMask,

GOPModeInfo->PixelInformation.BlueMask);

Print(L"PixelsPerScanLine: %d\n", GOPModeInfo->PixelsPerScanLine);
}


EFI_STATUS
EFIAPI
UefiMain (
IN EFI_HANDLE ImageHandle,
IN EFI_SYSTEM_TABLE *SystemTable
)
{
EFI_GRAPHICS_OUTPUT_PROTOCOL* GOP;

EFI_STATUS Status = gBS->LocateProtocol(
&gEfiGraphicsOutputProtocolGuid,
NULL,
(VOID **)&GOP);
if (EFI_ERROR(Status)) {
Print(L"Can't get GOP: %r\n", Status);
return Status;
}
Print(L"Framebuffer base: %016llx\n", GOP->Mode->FrameBufferBase);
Print(L"Framebuffer size: %016llx\n", GOP->Mode->FrameBufferSize);

Print(L"\n");
Print(L"Current mode: %d\n", GOP->Mode->Mode);
PrintGOPModeInfo(GOP->Mode->Info);
return EFI_SUCCESS;
}
```
