It’s /dev/dri/card0 on my device.

DRM has a thing called “dumb framebuffer” which exposes a memory mapped file with the CPU-accessible frame buffer data. See DRM_IOCTL_MODE_CREATE_DUMB and DRM_IOCTL_MODE_MAP_DUMB IOCTLs. The only inconvenience, some boilerplate is required to find the correct GPU connector, and setup a supported video mode.
