This repo is intended to provide a preview of Intel® Graphics Driver (xe) for the next generation of GPUs, which are yet to be fully available on the mainline kernel.
This repo contains patches that are already merged in drm-tip or sent to drm mailing list for review.
Since it is just for showcasing the capabilities of the next-gen GPUs so quality is not guaranteed and any issue needs to be reproduced and reported on drm-tip.
| 1. | Patches from drm-tip. | backport/patches/base |
| 2. | Feature patches send to public mailing list for review | backport/patches/features |
| 3. | Script to create kernel | backport.sh |
Note:
- Patches present in base will be removed once merged in mainline kernel.
- Patches present in features are dynamic in nature, they may change frequently and removed once merged in drm-tip.
- Patches present in features will use prelim uapi to aviod conflict in updates, once patches are merged in drm-tip, uapi will change from prelim to normal.
- prelim upai will be maintained at drm-uapi-helper.
