I've been thinking about that and my conclusion is that with no mappable aperture on board, it's no longer possible to access the imported object data, or at least arrange for such access, using i915 KMD interface, unless we extend the upcoming MMAP_OFFSET with a redirection to dma-buf interface. Based on some comments from Joonas and Daniel I received in response to my attempts to add such support, I'm assuming we are not going to do that. Without that, the only possibility I can see for userspace to access those data is to use mmap on the dma-buf file descriptor directly, completely bypassing i915 and its PRIME import function. Then, assuming the prime_vgem test is about testing just the PRIME import function of a driver, we have no alternative to MMAP_GTT to test here, I believe, unless we are going to test dma-buf interface over vgem driver PRIME export function, not the i915 KMD ABI. Just skipping the tests that require unsupported i915 functionality (mappable aperture) seems a reasonable approach to me.
