GPU (or anyone with MMU) can render on them (DRI buffers for example) and later on those buffers can be copied (blit) to the framebuffer. Yes, not zero-copy, but if you're doing compositing, there is no option anyway. Exactly this is done by omap-video driver for example. GBM BOs are allocated through omapdrm as well. >>> A BO's memory via the TILER memory is contiguous, although with >>> consistent gaps of memory that should not be accessed. >> >> I think this more or less contradicts to the definition of contiguous, >> no?  :) > > Depends on the definition ;).

Pure render buffers should be allocated from SGX. > In practice everyone around uses omapdrm to allocate all kinds of buffers, which kind of makes sense to me - that way you keep only one DRM fd around. Take omap-video for example, it uses omap_bo_new() (or omap_bo_tiled()) to allocate DRI buffers. GBM does the same (gbm_bo_create() uses omapdrm, because that's the DRM fd you create gbm with), IIUC. But those buffers should not be necessarily scanout capable. The problem with contiguous buffers as I see it, is that CMA is limited, so lets not waste it if we can use DMA memory and scatterlist. To support that, we just need to simply create a scatterlist, in similar way we do for TILER BOs in the $subject patch, so it should be few lines of code only. >> 4. make VRFB functional and implement the same/similar logic as for >> TILER BOs. > > Sounds good. > >> 5.
