The main purpose of these changes is to allow using this driver on SI hardware and playing with the (still quite limited) Gallium radeonsi driver in an X environment.

Right now, its main drawbacks are missing XVideo support (shouldn't be hard to add to glamor), and occasionally quite annoying diagonal tearing.

[PATCH 3/3] Initial SI support. _______________________________________________ xorg-driver-ati mailing list xorg-driver-ati@lists.x.org http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-driver-ati
