You shot down my idea for storing deltas into objects in the past... The BIOS scanout is properly aligned to the rules of the display engine, just not according to our mm restrictions. The bigger question is whether our 1:1 offset-to-stolen mapping is correct. It could well be that that the framebuffer is at stolen address 0, but just has a GTT offset. So the only question is whether we reject the object reservation at the stolen layer or at the plane config layer. I decided that stolen was better, because it is failing to meet our mm restrictions not hardware restrictions. -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
