I know that libgbm should be the preferred method to allocate drm
buffers in MESA.
But this is a little special case. The buffer object is allocated in
intel video driver by
calling libdrm directly. And we need to create a KHR image from that
BO. Currently,
the only avialable method is to use eglCreateImageKHR with
EGL_DRM_BUFFER_MESA target. And thus I met the format limitation with that
target.
If libgbm can provide a new API as below:
gbm_bo_create_from_name(struct gbm_device *gbm, int name,
int width, int height,
enum gbm_bo_format format,
uint32_t usage)
The name is a BO's name which is allocated by libdrm.
And then extent gbm_bo_format to meet my requirement, then that will be perfect
for me.
copy to Benjamin, any comments?
Thanks.
