--- Comment #12 from Larry <5lokuf+c77xmvwa3y1jk at sharklasers.com> ---
According to phoronix (April 20th) the new experimental support for HD 7000 in
amdgpu is basically inherited from the radeonsi driver. If true, that explains
why they share same critical issues with respect to SI/Verde.

CCing Tom St Denis from AMD whose commits amdgpu seem to deal with that
generation.

I understand that the amdgpu support for HD7700 is experimental (and, lower
priority). Please just be aware that the existing drivers you're basing off of
have critical issues (I'm posting this on
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99120). 

As AMD's cutoff for amdgpu means that HD7700 should be supported eventually, I
hope whatever engineering resources are presently allocated to improving the
state of linux support from AMD GPU products will deal with these problems
(i.e. utterly unusable GL) while the momentum is strong.

Thanks, and Happy new year!
