I offered to do this with vfuncs early on, but you mentioned special-casing should be enough. And I agreed: at the end, the LR contexts are not that different from traditional HW contexts. This is what I had in mind: CTX_TYPE_FAKE: no backing objects. CTX_TYPE_HW: one render backing object at creation time. CTX_TYPE_LR: n backing objects, with deferred creation. A few functions are moot (e.g. switch, reset). The current system (looking at dev_priv->hw_context_size to distinguish fake from hw contexts) is imo a bit obfuscated. And we can always abstract this away with vfuncs if it becomes too complex in the future... What do you think? can special casing made do for the time being? _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
