It's a reasonable idea, but in practice the two aren't completely independent. The reason GBM_BO_IMPORT_FD_MODIFIER was tied up with this is that it relies quite heavily on changes made to drm_fb which have now been merged, but were previously part of the atomic series. I've been considering pulling those out separately, but on the other hand there are quite large conflicts doing so: before the 'helper' commits, there are two separate GBM import paths for primary/scanout and overlay planes, which only get unified inside the atomic series. My current thinking is: * everything up to 'atomic modesetting support' is qutie self-contained, largely reviewed, and should hopefully be very very close to landing by the time I can send out a new revision next week (been busy with internal stuff & travel recently) * once that's landed, everything up to 'Add modifiers to GBM dmabuf import', and possibly including 'Support plane IN_FORMATS' + 'Support modifiers with GBM' can be considered as one independent series (though will need a non-trivial rebase) which should be quite easy to review * the rest of the code dealing with plane assignments (up to 'Enable planes for atomic') can be considered another separate series; though there are a couple of bugfixes in there, the rest is more complex and difficult I think it makes the most sense to work through like that in order. Of course if you have any other ideas or priorities, I'd be really interested to hear - anything which makes it easier to review is obviously good! :) Cheers, Daniel _______________________________________________ wayland-devel mailing list wayland-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/wayland-devel
