17 The functions gives access to the buffer where svgalib saves the vga
18 state which is use when the kernel displays text on the SVGA. This is
19 used by the restoretextmode(1), savetextmode(1), and textmode(1) utili‐
20 ties to restore a possibly screwed console.

22 The buffer currently occupies 385 bytes. It can't do any harm to make
23 it substantially larger to allow for future enhancements.
