Can I interest you in up-streaming this code into place such as libdrm
? This way other developers can benefit from your tool.

Admittedly I've not looked at the tool but it seems to me that it
duplicates some of the functionality we already in modetest (+atomic).
The latter of which send by your colleague Hyungwon Hwang [1] (and I
seemingly forgot do a final review/push). If you can share a few
cycles worth of review and/or importing your app.

Thanks
Emil
