[PATCH libdrm] README: reflow the project description to improve readability

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Also, move the sentence about "who would use libdrm" into its own paragraph,
as it is something people discovering libdrm will want to know.

 libdrm - userspace library for drm
+----------------------------------
 
-This  is libdrm,  a userspace  library for  accessing the  DRM, direct
-rendering  manager, on  Linux,  BSD and  other  operating systems that
-support the  ioctl interface.  The library  provides wrapper functions
-for the  ioctls to avoid  exposing the kernel interface  directly, and
-for chipsets with drm memory manager, support for tracking relocations
-and  buffers.   libdrm  is  a  low-level library,  typically  used  by
-graphics drivers  such as the Mesa  DRI drivers, the  X drivers, libva
-and  similar projects.  New  functionality in  the kernel  DRM drivers
-typically requires  a new  libdrm, but a  new libdrm will  always work
-with an older kernel.
