[Nouveau] [Mesa-dev] [RFC] tegra: Initial support

Hi Thierry,

Must admit that I really prefer this idea over modifying existing
applications/users [1] because:
 - Most of these setups are tightly coupled (imx+vivante, tegra+nouveau)
and pushing this down to the driver prevents duplication, and hardware
specific details in the users.
 - Removes the need (at least temporary) to have an arbiter and policies
about which devices can and how they should be coupled.

Hope your trip through the build/target helpers did not leave you
tearing your hairs out :)

[1] xserver's libglx and everyone else whole deals with gbm or dri
modules directly.

I've addressed those inline for you :)

I think this topic will be open for debate for a while. Especially since
tegra is only one driver (for now) that uses this type on
stacking/wrapping thus it's not so easy to predict if others won't need
anything extra.

You might want to have something like the following further down.
Admittedly it's not perfect (it will create a nouveau_dri.so hardlink)
but it'll avoid the manual case for nouveau dependencies.


if test "x$HAVE_GALLIUM_NOUVEAU" != xyes -a
   test "x$HAVE_GALLIUM_TEGRA" = xyes; then
   AC_ERROR([Building with tegra requires that nouveau])

Don't think you need the AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS here.

Here comes the big question:
Can we do something to avoid the link against libudev ? If we _do_ need
to go through libudev, can we please dlopen/dlsym it.

Please add the headers to the above list. It will help automake pick
them up in the distribution tarball.

You might as well drop the #ifdef here. Afaics you're using udev API
explicitly below.

For nouveau/radeons we add the chipset name so I guess doing similar
thing here wouldn't be a bad idea. Additionally for combined/stacked
drivers we might want to return both the base + gpu's get_name(). It
will provide nice feedback about the actual rendering device + programs
which use device name hacks will continue working :)

Provide both vendors similar to above ? "NVIDIA Corp + nouveau" :P

open(path) only to ignore it and return open("renderD128") below ? Seems
like something is missing here.

Do we even need FREEDRENO/TEGRA_CFLAGS here ?

Please add tegra_drm_public.h to the list.

util/u_debug.h is not be needed so the following should suffice.

#include "tegra_drm_public.h"
#include "tegra/tegra_screen.h"
