2. Mode setting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_setting

   Mode setting is a software operation that activates a display mode (screen resolution, color depth, and refresh rate) for a computer's display controller by using VESA BIOS Extensions or UEFI Graphics extensions (on more modern computers). The display mode is set by the kernel.

   In 2015, version 358.09 (beta) of the proprietary Nvidia GeForce driver received support for the DRM mode-setting interface implemented as a new kernel blob called nvidia-modeset.ko. This new driver component works in conjunction with the nvidia.ko kernel module to program the display engine (i.e. display controller) of the GPU. [197]

   Their 2D X.Org driver is called xf86-video-intel. The kernel mode-setting driver in the Linux kernel does not use the video BIOS for switching video modes; since some BIOSes have a limited range of modes, this provides more reliable access to those supported by Intel video adapters.

   In the middle: the FOSS stack, composed out of DRM & KMS driver, libDRM and Mesa 3D.Right side: Proprietary drivers: Kernel BLOB and User-space components. nouveau (/ n uː ˈ v oʊ /) is a free and open-source graphics device driver for Nvidia video cards and the Tegra family of SoCs written by independent software engineers, with minor help from Nvidia employees.

6. Mesa (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesa_(computer_graphics)

   Graphics device drivers are implemented using two components: a UMD (user-mode driver) and a KMD (kernel-mode driver). Starting with Linux kernel 4.2 AMD Catalyst and Mesa will share the same Linux kernel driver: amdgpu. Amdgpu provides interfaces defined by DRM and KMS.

7. Direct Rendering Infrastructure - Wikipedia

   For 2D rendering, the DDX driver must also take into account the DRI clients using the same graphics device. the access to the video card or graphics adapter is regulated by a kernel component called the Direct Rendering Manager (DRM). [10] Both the X Server's DDX driver and each X client's DRI driver must use DRM to access the graphics hardware.
