Note that this is Tegra related, which might explain their new-found eagerness to help (unlike desktop, they don't fully "own" the mobile high performance chips market yet, and it moves very fast)
Still, a great news

- ObnoxiousJul 13y agoin the thread the guy explains that he works @nvidia, but not the GPU desktop BU but for tegra that seems a 'burnt on the chip' of the card minus the pci bus and one clock (memory clock maybe?) (according to what I understand of the source). And he seems to say this division (tegra) does not reflect nvidia global policy. I may have made quite some mistakes in precision, but globally I think that is the idea: this is not nvidia doing
- exDM69 13y agoAs far as I understand it, this set of patches allows you to (or at least aims in the longer term to) run Nouveau user space on top of Nvidia Tegra Kernel drivers (did anyone read the code, does this use nvidia kernel drivers or nouveau kernel drivers?), which are already mostly open source. This would mean that you could run a full open source graphics stack on an ARM System on Chip (SoC). I don't know if this is possible on any current SoC out there.
