Right now, in order to create a driver, you need to combine three pieces.
The pipe is the core of acceleration for a given chipset. It contains
all of the code necessary to accelerate things, and exposes two generic
structs in the Gallium API: pipe_screen, which is information about the
current ch
I'm not sure which list is the correct one to post these questions, so I'm
posting to both.? All diagrams of the Gallium architecture show the ability of
using Gallium in various OS's that are completely different with each other.?
However, each diagram that has a specific graphics chipset (i915
