Just FYI this is a really bad idea, don't go releasing userspace code that uses
interfaces for kernel code that hasn't been merged.

I'm not going to accept already existing userspace code as a reason to not fix
bugs in the interface. Now I'll go find those bugs.

Hey James,

I am not entirely sure what happend but it looks like you are using
Alpine mailer to send out the patches. The sad end result is that
all of the patches have the "DRM: Add VIA DRM driver" title instead
of the more appropiate title within the email.

Could you repost them with 'git send-email' please?

This link http://kernelnewbies.org/OPWfirstpatch
at the "Submit a patch" section has an excellent tutorial on how
to use different mailers. The "Setup your tools" has a nice
tutorial on .gitconfig setup. If you would like to use
me as test subject and send emails to me before the mailing list
please do.

I usually have this in my .gitconfig file:

[konrad at build-external ~]$ more .gitconfig
[user]
name = Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
email = konrad.wilk at oracle.com
signingkey = F1DB09BF
[color]
branch = true
diff = true
[sendemail]
smtpserver = smtp.gmail.com
smtpserverport = 587
smtpencryption = tls
smtpuser = ketuzsezr at gmail.com

and for sending emails to myself I do:

konrad at phenom:~/linux$ git format-patch --subject-prefix="v4" HEAD^^..
0001-xen-ring-Add-a-new-macro-to-detect-whether-there-is-.patch
0002-xen-blkback-Check-for-insane-amounts-of-request-on-t.patch

then:
konrad at phenom:~/linux: git send-email --suppress-cc=all --to konrad at 
kernel.org --compose --annotate --subject "[PATCH v4] Safety harness for the 
block driver." *.patch

edit in vim the changes, look over all of the patches, and then send.

Lastly, is there a git tree with these patches so that one may
just in one swoop test them out?

Thanks!

[RPC 0/21] DRM: Add VIA DRM driver

2013-06-08 Thread James Simmons

Hello

Here is the first run at inspection of the VIA openchrome dri 
driver. Now that the Xorg driver has been out over a year with KMS support
most people should be able to use this feature. The driver is totaly 
complete but we wanted to merge it so people with newer hardware that has 
HDMI/DVI-D support can be able to run X windows. Your xorg driver does not 
implement HDMI/DVI in UMS mode and we don't have the resources to do this 
work. Basic TTM/GEM is supported but currently you can't run any 
acceleration with the command queue. Over the next 6 months this should be 
implemented. Thank you.
