The counter has been global scope forever. If you want to encapsulate it, send a patch yourself and make your case in the changelog. There is no reason to make people with reasonable working code jump through your personal preference hoops that have little to do with what their patch is pursuing. That being said, I'd NAK any patch that would turn a trivial accessor like this into a full-blown function. Our interfaces encapsulate for convenience, not out of distrust and bad faith. _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
