Most of the display servers today use a single surface to represent the entire desktop even if it's stretched across multiple screens. For vmwgfx with STDU, the maximum surface size is limited to the maximum texture size on the host. On a 2D VM, this limits our ability to support configurations with more than one 4K monitor. To get past this limitation, we will now allow using a large DMA buf as the framebuffer, and take care of blitting contents from this DMA buf to the display buffer.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
