This series creates vgem->platformdev which we can just pass to drm_gem_prime_import_platform() (or equivalent drm_gem_prime function that takes an explicit dev). It was a bit of a surprise that import_platform didn't take the platformdev after going to the trouble of creating vgem->platformdev. -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
