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!

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
|
|
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
|
|
Infrastructure (DRI).
|
|
|
|
The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
|
|
ways:
|
|
|
|
1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
|
|
the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.
|
|
|
|
2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
|
|
hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
|
|
restricted regions of memory.
|
|
|
|
3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
|
|
queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
|
|
switch.
|
|
|
|
4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
|
|
that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
|
