Here again, ideally this would get folded upstream too, once it's at

I can't really mandate a policy since I haven't been contributing much
to r300, but I would like to hear how people think this should progress.

Folding DRM driver is not difficult, in fact currently there is just one extra file with r300-specific code.

As for folding R300 driver, we'll see how things turn out. It is hard
for me to imagine how this folding could take place - albeit it might turn
out to be not too bad.

You know, I actually started the r300 driver with this in mind, which is why you'll still see all those r200_* files around. The thing is, I neither have the hardware to test whether it still works on R200, nor can I currently contribute much to development.

I did not know that :) I thought you just used R200 driver to get to something that would do fallbacks.



It really shouldn't require a complete rewrite, just a lot of careful (and tedious) refactoring.

If anyone wants to this can be easily checked by folding in texture handling code. If this can be done cleanly so it works on both drivers things are looking up.


Otherwise, there is no point in bothering. A good deal of state switching
code would need different files.
