Someone writes the patches+tests and everything, gets it all reviewed and I'll merge it. I'd prefer if we could do this with the cmd parser, but that thing seems to be eternally stuck. So a new execbuf flag is imo ok too. execbuf already tracks a few other lonesome bits and makes sure userspace actually gets the setting it requests, so should work out. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation +41 (0) 79 365 57 48 - http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
