[PATCH v2 1/1] drm/amdgpu: Enable scatter gather display support

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

 



Hi Sam,

yeah sorry for that. It's already rather late here and I got a bit taken 
away.

But I still insist that you at least try as I advised, I'm pretty sure 
that this approach will work and cover all use cases discussed so far.

Regards,
Christian.
