2008-02-05agp: add chipset flushing support to AGP interfaceDave Airlie
This bumps the AGP interface to 0.103. Certain Intel chipsets contains a global write buffer, and this can require flushing from the drm or X.org to make sure all data has hit RAM before initiating a GPU transfer, due to a lack of coherency with the integrated graphics device and this buffer. This just adds generic support to the AGP interfaces, a follow-on patch will add support to the Intel driver to use this interface. Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>
2007-02-03[AGPGART] Allow drm-populated agp memory typesThomas Hellstrom
This patch allows drm to populate an agpgart structure with pages of its own. It's needed for the new drm memory manager which dynamically flips pages in and out of AGP. The patch modifies the generic functions as well as the intel agp driver. The intel drm driver is currently the only one supporting the new memory manager. Other agp drivers may need some minor fixing up once they have a corresponding memory manager enabled drm driver. AGP memory types >= AGP_USER_TYPES are not populated by the agpgart driver, but the drm is expected to do that, as well as taking care of cache- and tlb flushing when needed. It's not possible to request these types from user space using agpgart ioctls. The Intel driver also gets a new memory type for pages that can be bound cached to the intel GTT.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
