I think whatever we come up with this should be integrated into the dma-buf/gem object naming we've just done. Maybe just dump all the objects somewhere (atm it's debugfs) and let userspace tally it up? At least with the current approach of having strings tallying up in the kernel would be a real pain. Also: Since we've gone with strings that drivers can pick however they want to, not sure the enum thing is a workable idea. Finally: Would need at least some mesa drivers using this, for upstreaming. -Daniel > > Sean > > > Jordan > > > > -- > > The Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. is a member of Code Aurora Forum, > > a Linux Foundation Collaborative Project > > _______________________________________________ > > dri-devel mailing list > > dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel > _______________________________________________ > dri-devel mailing list > dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
