Marek,
Regarding swap handling, there was a lengthy discussion about this topic at
XDC in Nürnberg.
May be Keith can comment on that as he also presented these ideas.
But short, the overall aim of this discusstion was to make the dri2 buffer swap
more asynchronous.
This does not exactly solve the problem with the tripple flush, but as far as I
can see this interferes with your attempts to move the buffer swap round trip
into an own thread. Or at least provides a similar fire and forget semantics
for the buffer swap that you aim for with a different buffer swap thread.
Keith, what is the further plan on that?
Greetings
Mathias
