The fb_base is only used for communicating the GTT BAR from one piece of the display code (kms setup) to another (fbdev). What is required in the fbdev is just the aperture address which should be derived from the bo we allocate for the framebuffer directly. The same appears true for drm/; it is not used by the core or the uAPI, it is merely for conveniently passing a device address from bit of display management code to another. v2: Note that since we only expose enough of a system map to cover our single framebuffer, the screen_base/size and the smem are one and the same.

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.
