the 2D driver initializes MC_FB_LOCATION and related registers sanely
the DRM deduces the layout from these registers
clients use the new SETPARAM ioctl to tell the DRM where they think the
framebuffer is located in the card's address space
the DRM uses all this information to check client state and fix it up if
necessary
This is a prerequisite for things like direct rendering with IGP chips and
video capturing.
- Reset 'bound' flag for an agp entry after undbind succeeded in
drm_agpsupport.h (Egbert Eich).
- Ignore hw_lock for drm device if lock was set by a different instance (ie
Xserver) to prevent second server from spinning in driver release
function (currently only relevant for i8xx drm drivers) (David Dawes).
- Use the agpgart "key" for the unique handle for bindings rather than the
memory address (the key is guaranteed to be unique) (David Dawes).
be ported, rolled back r128 and i810 version bumps so 4.1.0 works with
cvs kernel modules, added Config.in and updated Makefile.kernel,
incorporated lots of drm fixes inspired by patches sent by Redhat, made
DRM(realloc) usage check for NULL allocations, restructure driver init
routines to export dev_priv only when initialized and to check for all
error conditions.
- Fix old-style DMA for gamma driver (please test).
- Pull out IRQ handling into drm_dma.h (please test on i810, gamma).
- Lots of general cleanups, remove compiler warnings etc.
