Dave commented on IRC that he's fine with us proceeding to merge
with these Acks in place.

Thank you all for looking into the matter, this will now find its
way into Kernel version 5.1.

FWIW I think the API changes are fine. Sure it feels a bit odd at
first, but there's no better alternative that I can see either.

Maybe should add that ubunut/suse folks seem ok. Also, it's for libva, in
the past that's been very far down the list of contentious topics. Mostly
positive meh seems plenty good enough feedback I think.

A gentle reminder, I'm still looking to hear back from Stephane
and Dave.

We'd like to have this included in the final 5.1 drm-intel-next
pull request this week.

If there are no further comments by Wed, I will conclude that we
have reached a silent agreement, and merge this to give enough
time for Rodrigo to send the PR.

[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 0/6] Add uAPI to support ICL VME hardware for new media-driver

2019-01-15 Thread Joonas Lahtinen
Hi all,

I would like to have some Acked-by's from you, the distro media
folks Cc'd here, to document your intent to start using Intel's
new media driver[1]. So if you recognize yourself (or are otherwise
interested), please read on.

TL;DR Distro folks, please give your Acked-by on patch [5/6]

I believe most are already aware of the situation that Intel
is moving to the new codebase for libva backend to support new Intel
integrated graphics devices. The existing intel-libva-driver will
be continue to be be supported for pre-Icelake platforms (https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/49190/

The userspace changes are reviewed and rebased here:

  https://github.com/intel/media-driver/pull/271
  https://github.com/intel/media-driver/pull/463

and Patchwork / CI synchronization of tests and kernel is currently WIP.
