[PATCH 2/3] drm: Add support for render nodes

Kristian Høgsberg krh at bitplanet.net
Fri Sep 28 09:35:58 PDT 2012


This patch introduces a new kind of drm device node: the render node.
A render node exposes a safe subset of the legacy drm device ioctls and can
only be used for rendering.  The legacy node supports modesetting, DRI1
and global buffer sharing, while the render node only supports rendering
and limited buffer sharing.  A render node can either export a buffer using
the gem flink mechanism, or it can import and export buffers using the
prime fd passing mechanism.

A render node is not associated with any drm master and does not require
the legacy authentication step.  Render nodes can be used without
a master, potentially in headless setups such as video-transcoding or
GPGPU work.
