It has a private API to allocate and manipulate the buffers which are represented as dma_buf fds. The private API allows: * simple allocation of physically non-contiguous buffers * simple allocation of physically contiguous buffers * query kernel side API usage stats (number of attachments, number of mappings, mmaps) * failure mode configuration (fail attach, mapping, mmap) * kernel side memset of buffers The buffers support all of the dma_buf API, including mmap. It supports being compiled as a module both in-tree and out-of-tree. See include/linux/dma-buf-test-exporter.h for the ioctl interface. See Documentation/dma-buf-sharing.txt for details on dma_buf.
