My current plan is that fbdev is the base driver and I will modify the other drivers to bind to it. It is possible to split about 50K out of the fbdev driver into another module and make a smaller base driver but I'm not working on size isssues. Right now all I want to do is get a combined fbdev/DRM on the radeon with enough features to support mesa-solo. XGL needs most of both DRM and fbdev features. After that I have to spend a bunch of time getting it into Linus' tree.
I see..
I would find it useful if someone came up with a standard kernel space V4L radeon driver instead of the Gatos stuff.
By "standard" you mean "self-contained", right ?
While there have been a number of attempts, I don't think a full-featured v4l module will appear before video memory allocation functions are accessible from kernel space.
