For debugging purposes it is useful to assign descriptions to buffers so that we know what they are used for. Add a field to the buffer object and use that to name the various kernel side allocations which ends up looking like like this in /d/dri/X/gem: flags id ref offset kaddr size madv name 00040000: I 0 ( 1) 00000000 0000000070b79eca 00004096 memptrs vmas: [gpu: 01000000,mapped,inuse=1] 00020000: I 0 ( 1) 00000000 0000000031ed4074 00032768 ring0 Signed-off-by: Jordan Crouse <jcrouse@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: Rob Clark <robdclark@gmail.com>
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.
