Linux kernel source tree
5a498d4d06
Deferred I/O requires struct page for framebuffer memory, which is
not guaranteed for all DMA ranges. We thus only install deferred I/O
if we have a framebuffer that requires it.
A reported bug affected the ipu-v3 and pl111 drivers, which have video
memory in either Normal or HighMem zones
[ 0.000000] Zone ranges:
[ 0.000000] Normal [mem 0x0000000010000000-0x000000003fffffff]
[ 0.000000] HighMem [mem 0x0000000040000000-0x000000004fffffff]
where deferred I/O only works correctly with HighMem. See the Closes
tags for bug reports.
v2:
- test if screen_buffer supports deferred I/O (Sima)

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 reStructuredText 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.
