Ok, but so then there is a dead code in the kernel, right? Or not dead
at all because potentially some non-X userspace could trigger the bug.
Why it was added in the first place?
To me, intel_render_ring_init_dri() looks like being copy-pasted from
several places in a hurry. And I was already beaten by one bug
introduced in it, without a single response for 3 kernel cycles though
I've asked for help several times and provided detailed info.
Finally Keith analyzed and plugged NULL-pointer dereference (thanks)
but I'm telling, it seems there are more bugs introduced in e8616b6c.
The patch title says "drm/i915: Initialise ring vfuncs for old DRI
paths" and one could ask, why couldn't it be done without bugs and
regressions. Are we waiting for another one hitting left bugs instead of
fix them in the first place?
Quite frankly, I don't understand intel-gfx developers attitude: why is
it me, just random user who is nitpicking here? Why there is no
interest/will to analyze now obviously buggy/duplicate code and fix it?
If support for UMS/old-dri/whatever is dropped, could you please say so
and clean the driver from legacy code and move on. That would be at
least fair for people not hoping their old setups will continue to
work.
Thanks,
Kirill
