Ah good I haven't tried yesterday's image yet.
I compiled a new kernel from Golden Delicious, 4.7-rc6, with etnaviv (reverse vivante) support and new kernel module was created.
modprobe etnaviv
=> [30257.923139] driver_register 'etnaviv-gpu'
=> [30257.928086] driver_register 'etnaviv'
What next? I didn't found any info for testing 2D part of this driver.

I don't think etnaviv is the right kernel module for the 2D accelerator.I compiled a new kernel from Golden Delicious, 4.7-rc6, with etnaviv (reverse vivante) support and new kernel module was created.
modprobe etnaviv
=> [30257.923139] driver_register 'etnaviv-gpu'
=> [30257.928086] driver_register 'etnaviv'

You normally almost never have to modprobe a module (unless you first removed it manually) since the kernel will automatically load it when it detects a compatible device. The reason is hasn't is probably that it's missing from Device Tree.modprobe etnaviv
=> [30257.923139] driver_register 'etnaviv-gpu'

No I haven't.May want to talk to @zmatt he's been doing a bit of work with it lately.
How would the GC320 help with that? It's a blitting engine. If you want video decoding acceleration you need IVA-HD working, which is going to be non-trivial...I'm interested in this 'cause I'd like to see video acceleration soon, I'm sick of having a high cpu usage when watching.
