[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 1/5] winsys/svga: Add an environment variable to force host-backed operation

[Thomas Hellstrom]

The vmwgfx kernel module has a compatibility mode for user-space that is
not guest-backed resource aware. Add an environment variable to facilitate
testing of this mode on guest-backed aware kernels: if the environment
variable SVGA_FORCE_HOST_BACKED is defined, the driver will use host-backed
operation.
