Add constants for the maximum size of the shadow-plane surface size. Useful for shadow planes with virtual screen sizes. The current sizes are 4096 scanlines with 4096 pixels each. This seems reasonable for current hardware, but can be increased as necessary. In simpledrm, set the maximum framebuffer size from the constants for shadow planes. Implements support for virtual screen sizes and page flipping on the fbdev console. v3: * use decimal numbers for shadow-plane constants (Noralf) Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Acked-by: Noralf Trønnes <noralf@tronnes.org> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20211110103702.374-9-tzimmermann@suse.de
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.
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.
