Jerome,

This DRM code is kernel space part of a matching Xorg driver that we are
going thru final review to be submitted to xorg. The DRM is frozen but
the user space code needs to fix a few bugs reported by our QA team.
Prior version of xorg driver such as the one at
http://linux.via.com.tw/support/beginDownload.action?eleid=17&fid=381
doesn't use DRM. But the upcoming one does.

Thanks,

Benjamin Pan

It's hard to review if the interface is sane without knowing what 
userspace might need or not.

Cheers,
