etnaviv simply does not have any sideband channel to communicate the the tiling information, which would be required to make wl_drm work with tiled buffers. Falling back to linear buffers is also not an option for performance reasons. etnaviv requires a modifier enabled interface to get the tiling correct, which in the wayland case is the linux dmabuf protocol. If you see a big difference in CPU usage between the two interfaces, it would be good to investigate where this increased overhead is coming from to see if we can just fix that. Regards, Lucas
