videobuf2 only allowed exporting a dmabuf as a file descriptor, but there are instances where having the struct dma_buf is useful within the kernel. Split the current implementation into two, one step which exports a struct dma_buf, and the second which converts that into an fd. Signed-off-by: Dave Stevenson <dave.stevenson@raspberrypi.org>
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.
