Hi everyone, After further investigation, and feedback from maintainers, I have concluded that porting DRM to the SM750, will cause a huge performance regression as DRM has no interface for 2D acceleration, making the CPU do graphics, which is slow, the only way to expose 2D acceleration is custom IOCTLs, which is not preferable. So, it is best to keep using the fbdev stack for the SM750. Regards, Onish On Wed, Jun 17, 2026 at 8:30 AM neha arora [off-list ref] wrote:
Hi Dan, Please disregard my previous patch submission. I am currently working on a complete rewrite of the sm750fb staging driver into a modern, KMS-based DRM driver (sm750drm). Because this is a complete architectural overhaul, I am building it outside the staging tree structure. Once the sm750drm driver framework is stable and ready for a RFC (Request for Comments), I will submit the entire new subsystem patch series directly to the dri-devel mailing list and CC you. Thank you for your review and your time! Regards, Onish On Mon, Jun 15, 2026 at 12:34 PM Dan Carpenter [off-list ref] wrote:quoted
