Typical use case is the following one using OpenCL API: Yes. I've proposed a vmap interface to bind user-pages into the GTT, similar to a completely unused bit of TTM functionality. -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
