In this case we have an attachment object that we can use to cache the information. > and I think for cpu access I'm also leaning towards an interface where the > importer has to supply the direction argument for both begin_access and > end_access. So for consistency reasons I'm leaning towards adding it to > unmap. I'm OK with keeping the direction as an argument to unmap() if you think that's better. -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
