Patches for Contiguous Memory Allocator and get_user_pages()

by vsalve

Hi Marek, The patches for "CMA and get_user_pages" seems to be year old as per the mailing list link http://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/linaro-mm-sig/2013-March/003090.html Is there any latest patch-set for this feature and any updates whether these patches are to be pushed into main stream kernel sooner.

Re: [Linaro-mm-sig] Wayland generic dmabuf protocol

by Benjamin Gaignard

Hi, We are still interested in this topic too. One of the main comment on the latest patches was that wl_dmabuf use DRM for buffer allocation. This appear to be an issue since wayland doesn't want to rely on one specific framework (DRM, or V4L2) for buffer allocation, so we have start working on a "central dmabuf allocation" on kernel side. The goal is provide some as generic as possible to make it acceptable by wayland. For the protocol itself I think the expected behavior is the same than what you describe except maybe that buffer allocation will be done by using "central dmabuf allocator". On my hardware the patches you have (+ this one on gstwaylandsink https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=711155) allow me to do zero copy between the hardware video decoder and the display engine. I don't have implemented GPU yet because my hardware is able to do compose few video overlays planes and it was enough for my tests.
