The utility uses kmap_atomic() instead of vmapping the whole buffer object. As a result there will be more book-keeping but on some architectures this will help avoid exhausting vmalloc space and also avoid expensive TLB flushes. The blit utility also adds a provision to compute a bounding box of changed content, which is very useful to optimize presentation speed of ill-behaved applications that don't supply proper damage regions, and for page-flips. The cost of computing the bounding box is not that expensive when done in a cpu-blit utility like this.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
