This is the ABI for the two halves of a para-virtualized
display driver.

This protocol aims to provide a unified protocol which fits more
sophisticated use-cases than a framebuffer device can handle. At the
moment basic functionality is supported with the intention to extend:
   o multiple dynamically allocated/destroyed framebuffers
   o buffers of arbitrary sizes
   o better configuration options including multiple display support

Note: existing fbif can be used together with displif running at the
same time, e.g. on Linux one provides framebuffer and another DRM/KMS

Future extensions to the existing protocol may include:
   o allow display/connector cloning
   o allow allocating objects other than display buffers
   o add planes/overlays support
   o support scaling
   o support rotation

Thank you,
