Hi,
The idea is to create a GEM bo in one process and pass the prime handle of the
it to another process, which in turn uses the handle only to map and write.
This could be useful for Chrome OS architecture, where the Web content
("unpriviledged process") maps and CPU-draws a buffer, which was previously
allocated in the GPU process ("priviledged process").
In v2, I've added a patch that Daniel kindly drafted to allow the
unpriviledged process flush through a prime fd. In v3, I've fixed a few
concerns and then added end_cpu_access to i915. In v4, I fixed Sumit Semwal's
concerns about dma-duf documentation and the FIXME missing in that same patch,
and also removed WARN in i915 dma-buf mmap (pointed by Chris). PTAL.
Best Regards,
Tiago
