Make an additional note on DRM format modifiers for x and y tiling. These format modifiers are defined for BDW+ platforms and therefore definition is not valid for older gens. This is due to address swizzling for tiled surfaces is no longer used. For newer platforms main memory controller has a more effective address swizzling algorithm. v2: Rephrase comment (Daniel) Signed-off-by: Mika Kahola <mika.kahola@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20200506120827.12250-1-mika.kahola@intel.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.
