Any volunteers?
I'm not sure how much sense this makes. Imo the importer side is rather clearly spelled out, everything else is only now shaping up. And even with the clear interface spec we pretty much have no in-tree dma_buf user who doesn't cut corners somewhere for one or the other reason. As long the set of exporters is fairly limited we should be fine for now. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation +41 (0) 79 365 57 48 - http://blog.ffwll.ch -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
