Should probably explain here that the persistent fb stays around for as long as it's still in use by a plane, but will disappear automatically when it's no longer in active use. Also I guess there was some discussion I've missed on why we exclude rmfb from this (unlike the CLOSEFB thing robclark proposed ages ago). The nice thing about closefb is that you can give it persistent semantics retroactively, so don't need to re-wrap an gem_bo and do a page flip when you quit. -Daniel > + */ > +#define DRM_MODE_FB_PERSIST (1 << 2) > > struct drm_mode_fb_cmd2 { > __u32 fb_id; > -- > 2.33.0 > > -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation http://blog.ffwll.ch
