+//! Fbbootlogd renders the boot log and presents it on VT1.
+//!
+//! While fbbootlogd is superficially similar to fbcond, there are two major differences:
+//!
+//! * Fbbootlogd doesn't accept input coming from the keyboard. It only allows getting written to.
+//! * Writing to fbbootlogd will never block. Not even on the graphics driver or inputd. This makes
+//!   it safe for graphics drivers and inputd to write to the boot log without risking deadlocks.
+//!   Fbcond will block on the graphics driver during handoff and will continously block on inputd
+//!   to get new input. Fbbootlogd does all blocking operations in background threads such that the
+//!   main thread will always keep accepting new input and writing it to the framebuffer.
