I think distributions would prefer smaller self-contained projects, that don't need too many dependencies. If we make intel-gen4asm into i-g-t, we'd need additional configure options to enable/disable certain components, e.g. testdisplay with cairo/libudev deps. While we are at re-organizing intel-gen4asm, I would also suggest to think about using Chris' libbrw as the actual backend to the GenX assembler. There is a need to generate code both at run-time and build-time, and it would be better to use the same assembler back-end, so that to simplify validation and enablement of future generations. IMHO, that'd a more sensible move than deciding on where to host intel-gen4asm. :) Thanks, Gwenole. _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
