+ * \mainpage NVIDIA Framebuffer Capture (NvFBC) for Linux.
+ *
+ * NvFBC is a high performance, low latency API to capture the framebuffer of
+ * an X server screen.
+ *
+ * The output from NvFBC captures everything that would be visible if we were
+ * directly looking at the monitor. This includes window manager decoration,
+ * mouse cursor, overlay, etc.
+ *
+ * It is ideally suited to desktop or fullscreen application capture and
+ * remoting.

+/*!
+ * \defgroup FBC_REQ Requirements
+ *
+ * The following requirements are provided by the regular NVIDIA Display Driver
+ * package:
+ *
+ * - OpenGL core >= 4.2:
+ * Required. NvFBC relies on OpenGL to perform frame capture and
+ * post-processing.
+ *
+ * - Vulkan 1.1:
+ * Required.
+ *
+ * - libcuda.so.1 >= 5.5:
+ * Optional. Used for capture to video memory with CUDA interop.
+ *
+ * The following requirements must be installed separately depending on the
+ * Linux distribution being used:
+ *
+ * - XRandR extension >= 1.2:
+ * Optional. Used for RandR output tracking.
+ *
+ * - libX11-xcb.so.1 >= 1.2:
+ * Required. NvFBC uses a mix of Xlib and XCB. Xlib is needed to use GLX,
+ * XCB is needed to make NvFBC more resilient against X server terminations
+ * while a capture session is active.
+ *
+ * - libxcb.so.1 >= 1.3:
+ * Required. See above.
+ *
+ * - xorg-server >= 1.3:
+ * Optional. Required for push model to work properly.
+ *
+ * Note that all optional dependencies are dlopen()'d at runtime. Failure to
+ * load an optional library is not fatal.

+
+/*!
+ * \defgroup FBC_MODES Capture Modes
+ *
+ * When creating a capture session, NvFBC instantiates a capture subsystem
+ * living in the NVIDIA X driver.
+ *
+ * This subsystem listens for damage events coming from applications then
+ * generates (composites) frames for NvFBC when new content is available.
+ *
+ * This capture server can operate on a timer where it periodically checks if
+ * there are any pending damage events, or it can generate frames as soon as it
+ * receives a new damage event.
+ * See NVFBC_CREATE_CAPTURE_SESSION_PARAMS::dwSamplingRateMs,
+ * and NVFBC_CREATE_CAPTURE_SESSION_PARAMS::bPushModel.
+ *
+ * NvFBC can also attach itself to a fullscreen unoccluded application and have
+ * it copy its frames directly into a buffer owned by NvFBC upon present. This
+ * mode bypasses the X server.
+ * See NVFBC_CREATE_CAPTURE_SESSION_PARAMS::bAllowDirectCapture.
+ *
+ * NvFBC is designed to capture frames with as few copies as possible. The
+ * NVIDIA X driver composites frames directly into the NvFBC buffers, and
+ * direct capture copies frames directly into these buffers as well.
+ *
+ * Depending on the configuration of a capture session, an extra copy (rendering
+ * pass) may be needed. See the 'Post Processing' section.
+ */
+
+/*!
+ * \defgroup FBC_PP Post Processing
+ *
+ * Depending on the configuration of a capture session, NvFBC might require to
+ * do post processing on frames.
+ *
+ * Post processing is required for the following reasons:
+ * - NvFBC needs to do a pixel format conversion.
+ * - Diffmaps are requested.
+ * - Capture to system memory is requested.
+ *
+ * NvFBC needs to do a conversion if the requested pixel format does not match
+ * the native format. The native format is NVFBC_BUFFER_FORMAT_BGRA.
+ *
+ * Note: post processing is *not* required for frame scaling and frame cropping.
+ *
+ * Skipping post processing can reduce capture latency. An application can know
+ * whether post processing was required by checking
+ * NVFBC_FRAME_GRAB_INFO::bRequiredPostProcessing.
+ */
+
+/*!
+ * \defgroup FBC_ENVVAR Environment Variables
+ *
+ * Below are the environment variables supported by NvFBC:
+ *
+ * - NVFBC_LOG_LEVEL
+ * Bitfield where the first bit enables debug logs and the second bit enables
+ * performance logs. Both can be enabled by setting this envvar to 3.
+ *
+ * - NVFBC_LOG_FILE
+ * Write all NvFBC logs to the given file.
+ *
+ * - NVFBC_FORCE_ALLOW_DIRECT_CAPTURE
+ * Used to override NVFBC_CREATE_CAPTURE_SESSION_PARAMS::bAllowDirectCapture.
