Because then it won't be able to interoperate with other in-tree drivers, like virtual drm drivers or passthrough usb drm drivers. There is no clean way to share the minor number allocation with in-tree drm, so standalone vmwgfx is using dynamic major allocation. > >> and any future attempt to introduce dynamic device numbers for drm. >> > I'm not sure how well any such attempt will pan out, regardless of the > libdrm checks. > > Namely: the static 226 has been used by a number of tools that > interpose the libc' ioctl function. > There could be others that also depend on it. True, in any case for existing drivers changing static 226 to something else is at least 10+ years away according to Linus' policy, so the main issue here is really to get rid of a big annoyance in the standalone vmwgfx case. /Thomas > > Personally, I'd go with the kernel developers decision. > > Dave, Daniel, others > Should we keep or drop the major == 226 checks. > > Thanks > Emil

I wonder why I haven't heard of any of these issues with the standalone version of amdgpu shipped in packaged AMD releases. Does that also use a different major number? If yes, maybe it's just that nobody has tried Xwayland clients with that driver. If no, how does it avoid the other issues described above?

Yes, it does, it's working e.g. on laptops with an Intel integrated and an AMD discrete GPU.

The symptoms with xf86-video-vmware are that when mesa initializes, we get: MESA-LOADER: failed to retrieve device information MESA-LOADER: failed to retrieve device information MESA-LOADER: failed to retrieve device information but then vmwgfx_dri.so loads anyway. With XWayland, mesa just silently tries swrast instead of vmwgfx. Not sure this has always been the case though. It might be due to a recent XWayland change. In any case, the change to libdrm silence the warnings on Xorg and makes mesa try vmwgfx on XWayland. /Thomas

Somewhat out of curiosity, but why do you have to overwrite all of drm? amdgpu seems to be able to pull their stunt off without ... -Daniel

I think that's still the case. Hence less work for us. Also meant we can install the full driver stack with latest features on fairly old VMs without backported DRM functionality. /Thomas

Thanks for pointing this out. The function drmGetMinorNameForFD() already opens this path, so any user-space using that function would not work before either. Also mozilla/firefox adds /sys/dev/char/226:* Which means that while it still won't work on standalone vmwgfx, there should at least be no regression. For Chromium it seems they allow /sys/dev/char/ for AmdGpu, but only under ChromOS, so I'll ping those to be safe. I also won't be doing an immediate release after pushing.

To determine whether a device node is a drm device node or not, the code currently compares the node's major number to the static drm major device number. This breaks the standalone vmwgfx driver on XWayland dri clients, https://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/vmwgfx and any future attempt to introduce dynamic device numbers for drm. So instead of checking for the device major, instead check for the presence of the /sys/dev/char/<major>:<minor>/device/drm directory.
