Re: [PATCH] nouveau: add coherent BO attribute

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Doesn't this require a kernel version that has your other patch? What
happens when this runs on an older kernel? Does it get silently
ignored, or does it end up erroring out? If it errors out, that's
fine. Otherwise some sort of version check should be put in, no?
