Ohh, I absolutely see why you have chosen this way for your particular usecase. I am just arguing that this would rather be more generic to be merged. If there is absolutely no other way around we can consider it but right now I do not see that all other options have been considered properly. Especially when the fd based approach is basically wrong for almost anybody else. -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
