Did you mean this chunk in gralloc_drm_pipe.c?

       if (strcmp(pm->driver, "vmwgfx") == 0) {
               drm->mode_quirk_vmwgfx = 1;
               drm->swap_mode = DRM_SWAP_COPY;
       }
       else {
               drm->mode_quirk_vmwgfx = 0;
               drm->swap_mode = DRM_SWAP_FLIP;
       }

In my last hacking of gralloc_drm_pipe.c
for vmwgfx, it seems flip just work.
Actually I have tried the two paths but
can't find any explicit differences.
(at least for VM Player 12 I tested)
I guess the blit path isn't needed anymore
so I just removed it:

https://sourceforge.net/p/android-x86/external_drm_gralloc/ci/c04133951d10c4c17c0dfc9b86144b5a5957e17c/
(I need this hacking because pm->driver was removed
by Rohb's "pipe: use gallium loader function")

BTW, the above chunk was written by Chia-I Wu
(commit db29afe6).
He is probably the only one who can explain it better.
