So our Android folks seem to routinely run out of ioctl numbers in their product/downstream branches. But ime after some decent review of the new interfaces and not just blindly creating interfaces because that's easier we have rather slow ioctl number consumption in i915. So presuming you do decent review and dont fork your driver for every generation (which seems to be how every blob gfx driver team works) I don't think you have a problem. Of course that's a massive change in approach and in my experience with intel-internal discussion will require a lot of training. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation +41 (0) 79 365 57 48 - http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
