Hi.
I have a question about the semantics of the DRM_IOCTL_MODE_CURSOR iotcl:
Some hardware (vmware's virtual in particular) may not be able to pick
up the changes from a bo directly, since the cursor data is sent though
the command stream. Hence we need a notification when the cursor image
has changed.
Could we *require* that a cursor image change needs to be followed by an
ioctl call with the flag
DRM_MODE_CURSOR_BO?
Thanks,
Thomas
