Ah thanks Mario, I blame Keith. :p I agree we should integrate
this
patch as it would allow us to do more fun stuff with swapping...
That patch changes a ton of stuff; would be nice to see it split
into
smaller chunks that could be reviewed easily.
For reference, we're talking about this series, right?
<http://www.mail-archive.com/xorg-devel@xxxxxxxxxxx/msg14336.html>
As far as i can see, they were already split up in chunks and
reviewed
by Jesse, me and Franzisco Jerez - assuming they still apply to the
latest server version? At least 1/5, 4/5 and 5/5 looked simple
enough
and 4/5 and 5/5, the swaplimit api, seem to be independent from the
rest of the series?
Note that my r-b only goes to 4/5, I had some objections to 5/5 and
I'm
not sure if 1/5-3/5 still make sense.
I haven't checked if the rest still makes sense. 5/5 was about why a
driver who requests a dri2 swaplimit change should be called back to
confirm it is ok with the swaplimit change, which you said seems
totally redundant, right?
Ok, so we talk specifically about 4/5, which was reviewed by all of
us, i think non-controversial, and a simple addition of a dri2
swaplimit api.
Keith, what about that one for a start?
BTW, is there any reason this is being discussed outside of the
mailing
list?
No. It just started as a private conversation with Jesse and
"drifted" into this. cc'ing dri-devel, all that was said is in this
mail.
