There seems to be a bit a layer fumble going on with the lrc alloc request also pinning the lrc context. We could pull that out and then share the function again since there's indeed no reason no to. At least afaics. Also we should probably assign the ctx (if there is any) right in the request alloc function so that these two bits are always tied together. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation +41 (0) 79 365 57 48 - http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
