From 564e90f57185274130aba7b157a7dca1941dcfef Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Reinauer Date: Fri, 4 May 2012 15:37:18 -0700 Subject: Add a tool to work on i915 hardware in user mode This is the beginning of a tool that transforms the i9x5 code to user mode code. Consider this a very early stage although it does produce two programs. Requires spatch 1.0 or greater. To try it out, assuming you have an up-to-date spatch, sh transform make make broken Please don't fall to the temptation to auto-magicize this process. It's primitive for a reason. That said, suggestions welcome of course. Change-Id: I0188e36637b198b06c17f6d3c714d990e88bd57d Signed-off-by: Ronald G.
