When looking at the Kernel code, some there are some pieces that check for this flag: - there's code that deals with frontbuffer rendering - there's code that deals with fences - there's code that prevents self-modifying batches - another that seems related to waiting for objects Are there any new rules regarding frontbuffer rendering when we use execbuf3? Any other behavior changes related to the other places that we should expect when using execbuf3?
