// This file contains hooks for several functions that allow
// Qt and SDL to more or less share DRM master ownership.
//
// This technique requires Linux v5.8 or later, or for Moonlight
// to run as root (with CAP_SYS_ADMIN). Prior to Linux v5.8,
// DRM_IOCTL_DROP_MASTER required CAP_SYS_ADMIN, which prevents
// our trick from working (without root, that is).
//
// The specific kernel change required to run without root is:
// https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=45bc3d26c95a8fc63a7d8668ca9e57ef0883351c
