Michael,

Where can I find your patches?

What do you mean by etnaviv not being stable?

I did some limited testing with etnaviv on imx8mm with 5.15 + dsi
patches on an Ubuntu focal root filesystem by:
apt update
apt install gnome-session gnome-terminal
^^^ 2D hardware acceleration appears to be working (dragging opaque
windows around)
apt install mesa-utils glmark2
glxgears
^^^ ~160fps on IMX8MM
glmark2
^^^ score of 39 on IMX8MM

I haven't seen any updates from Jagan since Nov 24
(https://www.spinics.net/lists/dri-devel/msg324059.html) and am not
sure if he's been able to work through drm/exynos issues that have
been blocking his progress.

Best regards,

Tim
