//! Every device has at least one primary plane used to display an image to the whole crtc. Additionally cursor and overlay planes may be present.
//! Cursor planes are usually very restricted in size and meant to be used for hardware cursors, while overlay planes may
//! be used for performance reasons to display any overlay on top of the image, e.g. the top-most windows.
//! Overlay planes may have a bunch of weird limitation, that you cannot query, e.g. only working on round pixel coordinates.
//! You code should never rely on a fixed set of overlay planes, but always have a fallback solution in place.

//! The main functionality of a `Device` in smithay is to give access to all these properties for the user to
//! choose an appropriate rendering configuration. What that means is defined by the requirements and constraints documented

//! A surface is a part of a `Device` that may output a picture to a number of connectors. It pumps pictures of buffers to outputs.
//!
//! On surface creation a matching encoder for your `encoder`-`connector` is automatically selected,
//! if it exists, which means you still need to check your configuration.
//! On surface creation a matching encoder for your `connector` is automatically selected, if one exists(!),

//!
//! A surface consists of one `crtc` that is rendered to by the user. This is fixed for the `Surface`s lifetime and cannot be changed.
//! A surface also always needs at least one connector to output the resulting image to as well as a `Mode` that is valid for the given connector.
//! A surface also always needs at least one connector to output the resulting image to as well as a `Mode` that is valid for the given connectors.

//! The state of a `Surface` is double-buffered, meaning all operations that chance the set of `connector`s or their `Mode` are stored and
//! only applied on the next commit. `Surface`s do their best to validate these changes, if possible.
