I wasn't able to fix this quite like I wanted to, but this should work. The fix that I was intending to do, ended up meaning that I had to work on our mmap implementation, which I did, but won't be committed until it is reviewed. It also required a handful of changes to userland (libdrm, and the DDX driver) and broke the KBI so rebuilding even more stuff was needed. The linux guys would not have been happy with me and I would have had a fight on my hands. This patch implements what I wanted to do on 64 bit platforms. On 32 bit platforms (i386) it comes with some consequences... On amd64, I've adapted the map handle to have an offset of 0 and a globally unique map number starting at bit 40. This means that there are 24 bits for maps and each map can describe 1TB of memory. On i386, I've done the same thing except I am only stealing the top 4 bits for the map id, so there can only be 15 maps each up to 256MB. This should be ok since normally there are only 6 or 7 maps. I have run tested this on r600 amd64 so far. I can test r3/5/6/700, Intel and nouveau, but haven't done so yet. This should be a kernel only fix, meaning you should not need to patch or rebuild any of your userland apps. The patch is applicable to -CURRENT, and should work on 8-STABLE and possibly 7-STABLE. http://people.freebsd.org/~rnoland/drm_mmap_fix.patch robert. > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Robert Noland [mailto:rnoland@FreeBSD.org] > > Sent: Saturday, December 12, 2009 11:43 AM > > To: greg@rowes.org > > Cc: 'Steve Polyack'; 'Andriy Gapon'; freebsd-x11@FreeBSD.org; 'John > > Baldwin' > > Subject: RE: PCI Radeon 9250 - DRI/DRM in 8.0-RELEASE > > > > On Sat, 2009-12-12 at 09:28 -0500, Greg Rowe wrote: > > > My system has a Gigabyte Radeon HD4850 1GB PCI Express Card in it.
