Arguably mmaping the memory is a better choice, and is the direction that Logan's series goes in. Here the use of DMABUF was specifically designed to allow hitless revokation of the memory, which this isn't even using. So you are taking the hit of very limited hardware support and reduced performance just to squeeze into DMABUF.. Jason
