Yes, you can find it in |PipelindHandlerVirtual::exportFrameBuffer|.

Defined "frameSize" and "pageSize" beforehand. Should be shorter now.

Sure.

The allocation only works if the requested size is a direct multiple of
|getpagesize()|. Added a comment.

Since it's a private function that is only called by |exportFrameBuffer|,
renamed it to "FrameBuffer" instead.

I should use size_t instead.

Yes, I guess so, according to the comment of PixelFormatInfo:

Is it preferred to do so? I guess we can also support that by calling
|alloc()| multiple times...?

Thanks for doing so :)
