Well, problem is they are *not* handled fine, this is why the patch is there in the first place. Problem case: gnome-shell (in wayland display server mode) fails to come up with a working desktop in case both a intel vgpu and an emulated display device are present in the system. Looks like wayland tries to render using the intel vgpu, then import the rendered buffers to the emulated display device (qxl or virtio-gpu), and it does not handle the failure. I've tried to add a DRM_PRIME_CAP_LOCAL flag for self-import support: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/297672/ But looks like Daniel Vetter (Cc'ed) thinks userspace is to blame here for not handling the import failure properly. > +struct sg_table *virtgpu_gem_prime_get_sg_table(struct drm_gem_object *obj) > +{ > + WARN_ONCE(1, "not implemented"); > + return ERR_PTR(-ENODEV); > +} That is actually implemented meanwhile (branch drm-misc-next, will land in 5.2, commit "98f41dc3b3ee drm/virtio: implement prime export". > +struct drm_gem_object *virtgpu_gem_prime_import_sg_table( > + struct drm_device *dev, struct dma_buf_attachment *attach, > + struct sg_table *table) > +{ > + WARN_ONCE(1, "not implemented"); I don't think we should re-add this. Either drop this completely, or replace by a less noisy printk_once("can do self-import only"). cheers, Gerd _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
