Linux kernel source tree

The ioctls MODE_CREATE_DUMB and MODE_MAP_DUMB return results into a memory buffer supplied by user space. On errors, it is possible that intermediate values are being returned. The exact semantics depends on the DRM driver's implementation of these ioctls. Although this is most-likely not a security problem in practice, avoid any uncertainty by clearing the memory to 0 on errors.

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.
