mrg 50fcbdf26f merge the changes from drm 85b9f737db0d2a845e4d7e2bbf9ad12ff9e2227c with our changes and the work recently done by Arto Huusko <arto.huusko@pp2.inet.fi> and FUKAUMI Naoki <fun@naobsd.org>. it includes all the changes arto provided from both mesa-drm and the r6xx-r7xx-support branch. it does not yet include code to handle the (deleted) drm_pciids.h file, but i'll probably just check in a generated one for now. i have not yet merged the changes from outside this dir. from arto's messages to tech-x11: The important change that was needed is that drm_scatter.c was fixed to return pointer to all allocated pages, not just the beginning of the allocated segments. Other changes: - drm_scatter maps COHERENT memory - drm_drawable: drawable handle allocation is done inside lock - drm_memory: when mapping "agp" memory, store offset of mapped area, so that new requests to same offset return the same area instead of trying to remap and fail - drm_vm: use bus_space_mmap for frame buffer and registers - r600_cp.c: ioremapfree allocated gart range - radeon_cp.c: use mtsleep - some memset calls I had added had their args swapped, and no memory was cleared		2009-06-19 03:50:03 +00:00

README

DRM README file

There are two main parts to this package: the DRM client library/interface
(libdrm.so) and kernel/hardware-specific device modules (such as radeon.ko).
The kernel device modules are not shipped with libdrm releases and should only
be built from the git tree by developers and bleeding-edge testers of
non-Intel hardware. The Intel kernel modules are developed in the Linux
kernel tree.

Compiling
---------

By default, libdrm and the DRM header files will install into /usr/local/.
If you want to install this DRM to replace your system copy, say:

./configure --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/

Then,
make install

To build the device-specific kernel modules from the git tree:

cd linux-core/
make
cp *.ko /lib/modules/VERSION/kernel/drivers/char/drm/
(where VERSION is your kernel version: uname -f)

Or,
cd bsd-core/
make
copy the kernel modules to the appropriate place

Tips & Trouble-shooting
-----------------------

1. You'll need kernel sources. If using Fedora Core 5, for example, you may
need to install RPMs such as:

kernel-smp-devel-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5.i686.rpm
kernel-devel-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5.i686.rpm
etc.

2. You may need to make a symlink from /lib/modules/VERSION/build to your
kernel sources in /usr/src/kernels/VERSION (where version is `uname -r`):

cd /lib/modules/VERSION
ln -s /usr/src/kernels/VERSION build

3. If you've build the kernel modules but they won't load because of an
error like this:

$ /sbin/modprobe drm
FATAL: Error inserting drm (/lib/modules/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5smp/kernel/drivers/char/drm/drm.ko): Invalid module format

And 'dmesg|tail' says:

drm: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module

Try recompiling your drm modules without the Module.symvers file.
That is rm the /usr/src/kernels/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5-smp-i686/Module.symvers
file (or rename it). Then do a 'make clean' before rebuilding your drm
modules.
