Hi @tech,

I don't want to spam on this mailing list, but it seems interesting to
share with the other developers about the content of my project for
OpenBSD during the current GSoC. Just to present myself briefly, I'm
student in first year of Master in computer science, in Toulouse,
France.

The goal of the project is to port the current Cirrus userland driver
from X.Org to an OpenBSD KMS driver, and to document the process in
order to make easier the addition of new KMS drivers for various
graphics adapter.
As QEMU emulates a Cirrus CLGD 5446, this card is virtually one of the
easiest to find for testing purpose, is relatively well documented,
and is simple compared to latest intel or radeon cards. For these
reasons it's a pretty good candidate to be used as a sample
implementation of DRM/KMS.

The original proposal contains other informations, mainly
non-technical, but if you want to read it I made it available at this
address:
http://lab.knightsofnii.com/kristaba/gsocproposal/blob/master/README.md

Feel free to contact me if you have any question or advice concerning
my work (or any other reason).


Regards,

Léo Grange
