[ Please CC me I am not subscribed to dri-devel ML ] [ QUOTE ] Hi all,
This patch-set changes the algorithm in drm_mm.c to not need additional allocations to track free space and adds an api to make embedding struct drm_mm_node possible. Benefits: - If struct drm_mm_node is provided, no allocations need to be done anymore in drm_mm. It looks like some decent surgery, but ttm should be able to drop its preallocation dance. - void *priv is back, but done right ;) - Avoids a pointer chase when lru-scanning in i915 and saves a few bytes. As a proof of concept I've converted i915. Beware though, the drm/i915 patches depend on my direct-gtt patches (which are actually the reason for this series here). Tested on my i855gm, i945gme, ironlake and agp rv570. Comments, flames, reviews highly welcome.
