How about: Hence we can drop the DRM_AUTH all together (details in follow-up patch) yet that cause a regression in some userspace, when it conflates the authentication status with access to modeset resources. After days of digging through git log and testing, only a single (ab)use was spotted - the Mesa RADV driver, using the AMDGPU_INFO ioctl. > > Affected versions are: > > - the whole 18.2.x series, which is EOL > > - the whole 18.3.x series, which is EOL > > - the 19.0.x series, prior to 19.0.4 > > Hm I think I'm blind, I'm not seeing the fix merged to mesa master.

Great, glad to hear. Now all we need is to bribe^Wconvince Christian.
