I've been pondering this for a while now, and I think we should not do this unconditionally - it should be predicated on the MC20 feature - both for the original code and the new code. If we don't have the MC20 feature, we end up with more memory spaces than we can cope with. If we don't have MC20, but we need to offset, that's an error which can lead to memory corruption. -- RMK's Patch system: http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTC broadband for 0.8mile line: currently at 9.6Mbps down 400kbps up according to speedtest.net. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
