Flags pending validation were stored in a misleadingly named field, 'mask'.
As 'mask' is already used to indicate pieces of a flags field which are
changing, it seems better to use a name reflecting the actual purpose of
this field. I chose 'proposed_flags' as they may not actually end up in
'flags', and in an case will be modified when they are moved over.
This affects the API, but not ABI of the user-mode interface.
We now always create a drm_ref_object for user objects and this is then the only
things that holds a reference to the user object. This way unreference on will
destroy the user object when the last drm_ref_object goes way.
The buffer object type is still tracked internally, but it is no longer
part of the user space visible ioctl interface. If the bo create ioctl
specifies a non-NULL buffer address we assume drm_bo_type_user,
otherwise drm_bo_type_dc. Kernel side allocations call
drm_buffer_object_create() directly and can still specify drm_bo_type_kernel.
Not 100% this makes sense either, but with this patch, the buffer type
is no longer exported and we can clean up the internals later on.
Introduce tile members for future tiled buffer support.
Allow user-space to explicitly define a fence-class.
Remove the implicit fence-class mechanism.
64-bit wide buffer object flag member.
This just cleans up the xf86drm.c to what I want and drm.h,
I need to fix up the kernel internals to suit these changes now.
I've moved to using struct instead of typedefs for the bo and it doesn't look
that bad so I'll do the same thing for mm and fence..
This will come in very handy for tiled buffers on intel hardware.
Also add some padding to interface structures to allow future binary backwards
compatible changes.
The mm_lock function is used when leaving vt. It evicts _all_ buffers.
Buffers with the DRM_BO_NO_MOVE attribute set will be guaranteed to
get the same offset when / if they are rebound.
Adapt for new functions in the 2.6.19 kernel.
Remove the ability to have multiple regions in one TTM.
This simplifies a lot of code.
Remove the ability to access TTMs from user space.
We don't need it anymore without ttm regions.
Don't change caching policy for evicted buffers. Instead change it only
when the buffer is accessed by the CPU (on the first page fault).
This tremendously speeds up eviction rates.
Current code is safe for kernels <= 2.6.14.
Should also be OK with 2.6.19 and above.
Change the fence object interface somewhat to allow some more flexibility.
Make list IOCTLS really restartable.
Try to avoid busy-waits in the kernel using immediate return to user-space with an -EAGAIN.
