[PATCH 0/6] make ctx mgr global

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



NAK to the whole approach.

If we want to share dependencies in the form of fences between devices 
and especially processes we must use android fences and the sync file 
framework.

Sharing numbers in the form of the IDR is a security nightmare we 
already ran into with the GEM flink design.

Regards,
Christian.
