I think someone mentioned that resizing the fb would be a problem for XAA and that we would probably have to abandon XAA to enable this. Do we think this is still the case ?
That is correct, XAA won't be able to deal with that at the moment. Basically we need ttm support in the drm to do dynamic buffer allocation. Once the radeon drm gets ttm support we can make the appropriate changes to the radeonhd/radeon drivers to properly support this.
That said, EXA on Radeon parts is looking a lot better these days.
Yes. I'm considering making it the default. Alex

Is there a plan for improving this in radeonhd? The intel driver guys plan on allowing the framebuffer allocation to be dynamically (and automatically) resized, sometime later this year. -- adamw
