2010-02-25drm/nouveau: new gem pushbuf interface, bump to 0.0.16Ben Skeggs
This commit breaks the userspace interface, and requires a new libdrm for nouveau to operate again. The multiple GEM_PUSHBUF ioctls that were present in 0.0.15 for compatibility purposes are now gone, and replaced with the new ioctl which allows for multiple push buffers to be submitted (necessary for hw index buffers in the nv50 3d driver) and relocations to be applied on any buffer. A number of other ioctls (CARD_INIT, GEM_PIN, GEM_UNPIN) that were needed for userspace modesetting have also been removed.

2010-02-25drm/nv50: switch to indirect push buffer controlsBen Skeggs
PFIFO on G80 and up has a new mode where the main ring buffer is simply a ring of pointers to indirect buffers containing the actual command/data packets. In order to be able to implement index buffers in the 3D driver we need to be able to submit data-only push buffers right after the cmd packet header, which is only possible using the new command submission method. This commit doesn't make it possible to implement index buffers yet, some userspace interface changes will be required, but it does allow for testing/debugging of the hardware-side support in the meantime.

2010-01-11drm/nouveau: Allocate a per-channel instance of NV_SW.Francisco Jerez
It will be useful for various synchronization purposes, mostly stolen from "[PATCH] drm/nv50: synchronize user channel after buffer object move on kernel channel" by Maarten Maathuis. Signed-off-by: Francisco Jerez <currojerez@riseup.net>
2009-12-11drm/nouveau: Add DRM driver for NVIDIA GPUsBen Skeggs
This adds a drm/kms staging non-API stable driver for GPUs from NVIDIA. This driver is a KMS-based driver and requires a compatible nouveau userspace libdrm and nouveau X.org driver. This driver requires firmware files not available in this kernel tree, interested parties can find them via the nouveau project git archive. This driver is reverse engineered, and is in no way supported by nVidia. Support for nearly the complete range of nvidia hw from nv04->g80 (nv50) is available, and the kms driver should support driving nearly all output types (displayport is under development still) along with supporting suspend/resume. This work is all from the upstream nouveau project found at nouveau.freedesktop.org.
