Hello,
I was wondering about the following. Wasn't there some strict requirement about code going upstream, which also included that there was a full open-source driver stack for it?
I don't see how this is the case for Mali, neither in the kernel, nor in userspace. I'm aware that the Mali kernel driver is open-source. But it is not upstream, maintained out of tree, and won't land upstream in its current form (no resemblence to a DRM driver at all). And let's not talk about the userspace part.
So, why should this be here?
With best wishes, Tobias
P.S.: I'm signed up to dri-devel in digest mode, so sorry if this mail doesn't properly show up in the corresponding ml thread.
