+=============================
+Mode Setting Helper Functions
+=============================
+
+The DRM subsystem aims for a strong separation between core code and helper
+libraries. Core code takes care of general setup and teardown and decoding
+userspace requests to kernel internal objects. Everything else is handled by a
+large set of helper libraries, which can be combined freely to pick and choose
+for each driver what fits, and avoid shared code where special behaviour is
+needed.
+
+This distinction between core code and helpers is especially strong in the
+modesetting code, where there's a shared userspace ABI for all drivers. This is
+in contrast to the render side, where pretty much everything (with very few
+exceptions) can be considered optional helper code.
+
+There are a few areas these helpers can grouped into:
+
+* Helpers to implement modesetting. The important ones here are the atomic
+  helpers. Old drivers still often use the legacy CRTC helpers. They both share
+  the same set of common helper vtables. For really simple drivers (anything
+  that would have been a great fit in the deprecated fbdev subsystem) there's
+  also the simple display pipe helpers.
+
+* There's a big pile of helpers for handling outputs. First the generic bridge
+  helpers for handling encoder and transcoder IP blocks. Second the panel helpers
+  for handling panel-related information and logic. Plus then a big set of
+  helpers for the various sink standards (DisplayPort, HDMI, MIPI DSI). Finally
+  there's also generic helpers for handling output probing, and for dealing with
+  EDIDs.
+
+* The last group of helpers concerns itself with the frontend side of a display
+  pipeline: Planes, handling rectangles for visibility checking and scissoring,
+  flip queues and assorted bits.

+libraries and hence is also included here.
