Are you sure about that - what if we have two GPUs, a 2D and 3D GPU, and we're fed an etnaviv fence for one GPU when submitting to the other GPU. So we do end up being fed our own fences, and we have to respect them otherwise we lose inter-GPU synchronisation, and that will break existing userspace. -- RMK's Patch system: http://www.armlinux.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
