It won't work for displays connected to a secondary GPU, because those aren't hooked up to the Present extension directly. It can theoretically work with render offloading, if the primary GPU can scan out directly from the shared pixmap. This is only possible with current AMD APUs which support scatter/gather scanout (Carrizo and newer?). One gotcha is that xf86-video-amdgpu currently doesn't allow flipping between buffers with different tiling parameters (BTW Harry, does that work with DC?), but that should be easy to fix. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://www.amd.com Libre software enthusiast | Mesa and X developer _______________________________________________ amd-gfx mailing list amd-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/amd-gfx
