drm/ipvr is a new GEM driver for VED (PowerVR's VPU integrated in Intel GPU), which extends video capability. A new Kconfig added for building ipvr driver:
CONFIG_DRM_IPVR: Build option for ipvr module The driver name "ipvr" means the PowerVR's core wrapped by Intel. The PowerVR VPUs are also integrated by non-i915 platforms such as GMA500, so we keep ipvr driver and i915 driver separated and independent to each other. To achieve this we do the minimum change in i915: i915_ved.c added for setting up the bridge between VED and i915, kerneldoc also updated. User mode drm helper "libdrm_ipvr.so" and simple ioctl/execute test is included. one test script "drv_module_reload" in i-g-t also updated to support ipvr loading and unloading. Due to restriction in Linux platform device model, we have to manually unload ipvr before unloading i915. Yao Cheng (4): [1/4] drm/i915: add i915_ved.c to setup bridge for VED [2/4] drm/ipvr: drm driver for VED [3/4] libdrm/ipvr: user mode helper for ipvr drm driver [4/4] i-g-t: tests/drv_module_reload: add ipvr support -- 2.1.0
