Konstantin Belousov 君上個月在 freebsd-x11 的言論
本帖最后由 zeissoctopus 于 2012-07-15 01:08 编辑Konstantin Belousov 君便是那位獨力一手一腳把 Linux Intel KMS 移植給 FreeBSD kernel 的貢獻者。
最欣慰是他仍然有興趣移植 ATI radeon TTM
freebsd-x11
原文如下：
I think it is reasonable and inevitable to drop support for anything
except Intel, ATI and NVidia. This seems to be a route taken by the
upstream. Currently, ATI is big problem, Intel is less so, and NVidia
should work except that we do not have sources for code that works.
The upstream decision to handle lesser cards is to provide small
kernel-side KMS-only drivers, and use xf86-video-modesetting (if I
remember the name of the ddx driver right) for all of them. Driver will
use in-kernel KMS to get video mode going, and only procide software
acceleration.
I will not port these miriad of KMS drivers, I did hoped that initial
Intel port and KMS infrastructure would cause some following from other
people starting contributing for our GPU support.
To not sink completely with Xorg/GPU etc, we need:
- a porting work for ATI kernel code (there is initial work done already,
and I did promised to port TTM, hopefully will do it).
- continue the work of importing Linux changes for generic DRM infrastructure
and Intel driver. I somewhat run out of stem for this activity.
- start porting other kernel drivers from Linux. E.g. GMA500, generic
fbdev KMS driver, matrox etc.
I simply cannot keep up with all this tasks alone, and already having spent
more then a year of my life with that, I want to delegate at last part of the
load to interested (and capable) people. Please, show the work accomplished,
feel free to ask the tecnhical questions about doing it, use the lists
for communication. And no, I do not need advises how to do _my_ part of
the work.
Thank you.
Konstantin Belousov 太赞了 大家应该向Konstantin Belousov 学习呵 ^_^ :emn31: 大牛能力无比，堪比厂家 回复 4# action08
没有厂家支持 也是无力 O_o :emn31: ulovko 发表于 2012-07-17 09:14 static/image/common/back.gif
回复 4# action08
是啊，很多东西不开放，光靠逆向工程是不行的吧
