libdrm - userspace library for drm

----------------------------------

This is libdrm, a userspace library for accessing the DRM, direct rendering

manager, on Linux, BSD and other operating systems that support the ioctl

interface.

The library provides wrapper functions for the ioctls to avoid exposing the

kernel interface directly, and for chipsets with drm memory manager, support

for tracking relocations and buffers.

New functionality in the kernel DRM drivers typically requires a new libdrm,

but a new libdrm will always work with an older kernel.

libdrm is a low-level library, typically used by graphics drivers such as

the Mesa drivers, the X drivers, libva and similar projects.

Compiling

---------

To set up meson:

    meson builddir/

By default this will install into /usr/local, you can change your prefix

with --prefix=/usr (or `meson configure builddir/ -Dprefix=/usr` after 

the initial meson setup).

Then use ninja to build and install:

    ninja -C builddir/ install

If you are installing into a system location you will need to run install

separately, and as root.
