liquidAcid: hi :)
<tfiga>
all the Polish people working on Exynos are the same group :)
<liquidAcid>
?
<liquidAcid>
ah, ok -- i see what you mean
<tfiga>
unfortunately the issue with HDMI power domains is not clear and we didn't get any explanation, so the only thing sure to work correctly is that hack
<liquidAcid>
i still don't understand though what rahul's and inki's patch are then exactly fixing
<tfiga>
most likely the power down sequencing
<tfiga>
but I'm not really sure those patches really fix it or rather reduce the probability of happenning...
<liquidAcid>
i need to check on the coming weekend, haven't got any spare time this week (mini workshop)
<liquidAcid>
tfiga, and someone pursuade jglisse to leave the userptr support in peace ;)
<tfiga>
all I can say is that what Marek does is best we can do to get HDMI running right now
<tfiga>
no, don't do it
<tfiga>
or at least do it, but in a way making it hard to use in new userspace code
<tfiga>
userptr is just a big Pandora's box
<tfiga>
especially on systems without coherent memory systems
<liquidAcid>
i would be happy to use it one day though, when iommu support arrives
<tfiga>
what would be the use case?
<liquidAcid>
i'm using the g2d to implement a video driver for retroarch (an emulator frontend)
<liquidAcid>
the emulator core allocates memory for its emulator framebuffer itself and then passes it to the frontend
<liquidAcid>
it would be nice to just use this malloced buffer then as input for the g2d
<tfiga>
actually the G2D on Exynos4 can be coherent with CPU caches
<liquidAcid>
also, almost all emulator cores just alloc one buffer at init and then never realloc it again -- which fits nicely with what userpte does
<tfiga>
but I believe nobody tried to use this feature
<liquidAcid>
is there any docu available for the g2d? so except for the libdrm test cases
<tfiga>
I don't think there is anything public
<liquidAcid>
hmm
<liquidAcid>
i was trying to get some alpha blending stuff working
<liquidAcid>
input is XRGB, but there seems to be a reg where you can define a alpha that is "added" to your source
