I chose "migration" because device private pages seemed like a good way of reusing existing code to do what was required (a callback on CPU access). However I have been reworking this to use mmu notifiers as the callback and it seems to simplify some things nicely so think I also agree. It removes the requirement for the pin as well which is nice, I'll post it as a v2 soon. - Alistair _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
