System and method for frame buffer

An apparatus, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory, containing instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to:
• run a host environment with a host virtual memory,
• run a guest environment with a guest virtual memory,
• perform, by the host environment, an allocation of a frame buffer in the physical memory,
• map the allocated frame buffer into the host virtual memory,
• pass a handle of the allocated frame buffer to the guest environment, and
• perform a mapping of the allocated frame buffer into the guest virtual memory, the mapping based on the handle of the allocated frame buffer.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising program code, which when executed by a processor, causes an apparatus to:

• run a host environment with a host virtual memory,
• run a guest environment with a guest virtual memory,
• perform, by the host environment, an allocation of a frame buffer in the physical memory,
• map the allocated frame buffer into the host virtual memory,
• pass a handle of the allocated frame buffer to the guest environment, and
• perform a mapping of the allocated frame buffer into the guest virtual memory, the mapping based on the handle of the allocated frame buffer.
