Why is nouveau using a separate swap storage?
Hi guys, just another TTM feature which is only used by nouveau. We have this bo->bo.persistent_swap_storage pointer which is only set by nouveau to the GEM filp and used when a BO is swapped to a shmem file. As far as I can see this doesn't make any sense at all? What is the background here. Thanks, Christian. ___ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
