+.SH NAME
+XPresentQueryCapabilities \- query capabilities of a CRTC
+.SH SYNTAX
+\&#include <X11/extensions/Xpresent.h>

+uint32_t XPresentQueryCapabilities \^(\^Display *\fIdisplay\fP, XID \fItarget\fP\^)\^;

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B XPresentQueryCapabilities
+returns a bitmask of the supported capabilities for the target CRTC. If
+\fItarget\fP is a CRTC, then it is used as the target CRTC. If
+\fItarget\fP is a WINDOW, then the target CRTC is selected by the
+X server from among the CRTCs on the screen specified by the window.
+.PP
+\fBPresentCapabilityAsync\fP means that the target device can flip
+the scanout buffer mid-frame instead of waiting for a vertical
+blank interval. The precise latency between the flip request
+and the actual scanout transition is not defined by this
+specification, but is intended to be no more than a few
+scanlines.
+.PP
+\fBPresentCapabilityFence\fP means that the target device can take
+advantage of SyncFences in the \fBPresent\fP operations to improve
+GPU throughput. The driver must operate correctly in the
+absence of fences, but may have reduced performance. Using
+fences for drivers not advertising this capability should have
+no performance impact.
+.PP
+\fBPresentCapabilityUST\fP means that the target device can scanout
+the image at an arbitrary UST time value, and is not driven by
+a periodic scanout timer. Applications specifying UST times for
+.BR XPresentPixmap (__libmansuffix__)
+can expect that their image will appear to
+the user within a short amount of time from that specified in
+the request. The precise accuracy of the scanout time is not
+defined by the extension, but is expected to be on the order
+of milliseconds or less.
