So should we just work on getting everything running on newtree then and not worry about the security issues for now?
Sounds good to me, I'll look into disabling DMA by default, if we have the option we are okay, my only issue is though should there be something in the DRM that it affects? I can't see how XF86Config could make it safe, if I have a DRM that allows it I can access it from userspace process without DRI or XFree86...
XF86Config should only be modifiable by root, so if root decides to be insecure, that's root's business.
BTW, if you're working with vertices, you should definitely be using the new t_vertex.c code (see the i830 driver) if at all possible. It can be extended to cover some more scenarios if necessary -- perhaps we need to allow driver extensions to that code.
