Is anyone actually and or actively working on this?
Github.com/pathscale/pscnv is totally bitrot but waaay more portable base.
Nouveau made hard Linux assumptions that will be difficult to overcome
afaik.


As pointed out by Ilia, this is not true anymore. Nouveau can also partially
run in the userspace, the hard dependencies on Linux have been abstracted.

Also, pscnv does not support the newest GPUs and receives no further
development because everything it provided is now provided by Nouveau.
I did mention pscnv was bitrot, but I'm not yet convinced that some of
the key things which are implemented in nouveau were done to a
comparable level of quality (would need to evaluate and don't have
time/interest)

To bring this conversation back on track - where would someone start
*exactly* to port this to another OS? What kernel dependencies are
there?

This needs to be ported to the other OS, along with drm and ttm (which I believe have already been ported to all the BSDs):
