The other part is making the primary plane update func more sane, and split it to check/commit phases, which is what Gustavo is working on. Once all that's done we can add the vblank evade to the primary plane update commit hook. And then there shouldn't be much difference in the mmio flip vs. plane update anymore so we should be able to just call the primary plane funcs for mmio flip, with the commit done from the wq. And the end result is then quite close to what we want for nuclear flip. Then we "just" expand it to cover multiple planes in one go and we're almost there :) -- Ville Syrjälä Intel OTC _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
