[Mesa-dev] [PATCH] drm/radeon: Add RADEON_GEM_CPU_ACCESS BO creation flag

Michel Dänzer michel at daenzer.net
Wed Aug 27 23:56:00 PDT 2014


From: Michel Dänzer <michel.daenzer at amd.com>

This flag is a hint that userspace expects the BO to be accessed by the
CPU. We can use that hint to prevent such BOs from ever being stored in
the CPU inaccessible part of VRAM.
