I also have pushed good news to
https://github.com/openpvrsgx-devgroup/linux_openpvrsgx/tree/letux-pvr
Thanks to the help from the Pyra community, I was able to get a (binary) reference implementation using DRM that works on Pyra/OMAP5. At least the gles1test1.
With that reference setup I was able to fix my Makefiles for the staging/pvr implementation.
I have tested that it works with v4.19.66 and v5.3-rc4 (LPAE build of the LetuxOS kernel tree) on the Pyra.
In which areas does this tree go beyond the TI SDK/IMG DDK 1.14?
includes internal API fixes for kernels up to v5.3
lives in drivers/staging/pvr/1.14.3699939 - so that we can ask for inclusion in linux-next
has Kconfig and Makefiles for in-kernel configuration (no separate build system)
builds separate kernel modules for omap3430, omap3630, am335x, omap4, omap5, dra7 etc. pvrsrvkm e.g. pvrsrvkm_omap_omap5_sgx544_116
the correct kernel module is automatically probed by matching .compatible in device tree so that the code is multi-platform friendly
includes SoC integration for OMAP3/4/5 and has some preliminary bindings documentation
code base should also support JZ4780/CI20 and some Intel Atom processors (CedarView, Poulsbo)
has got a ToDo to describe what should be done during staging phase
https://github.com/openpvrsgx-devgroup/linux_openpvrsgx/blob/letux/latest-pv...
My plans for the next steps are:
- do more testing (e.g. X11, kmscube)
- check if and/or how it can run on am335x (BeagleBone) or OMAP3 (e.g. GTA04, OpenPandora)
- try a JZ480/CI20 build (unfortuantely I have no HDMI there with mainline kernels and I am missing the user-space libraries for MIPS).
That sounds good to me, just one comment. Before getting these into staging, I'd like to have omap variants use proper interconnect target module in devicetree like we already have in omap4.dtsi as target-module@56000000. This should simplify things further as the module child device driver(s) can just enable things with runtime PM and we can leave out all the legacy hwmod platform data that sounds like you're still carrying.
I have patches here to add similar interconnect target modules for at least omap34xx, omap36xx, omap5, and am335x that I'll try to post later on today to play with. For am335x, things still depend on the recentely posted prm rstctrl patches. I'm not sure if I already did a dts patch for dra7 yet, need to check.

Tony
