Okay, can you tell the present status of SGX545 support? I want to test out<br>
the drivers. Is this GPU core significantly different than the other sgx<br>
cores? And willit move to the mainline kernel after sometime?<br>

<br>
It should be supported by the driver (there are Revision specific #defines and #ifdefs) but it is untested.<br>
So there may be bugs in the Makefile and/or the code or SoC integration.<br>
<br>
And we may run into the problem of not having appropriate user-space code.<br>
What I had started a while ago was to experiment with qemu to run the ARM user-space code on a MIPS machine with SGX540 (jz4780).<br>
But I didn't find time to continue these experiments.<br>
<br>
> I want to test out the drivers. Is this GPU core significantly different than the other sgx cores?<br>
<br>
There is the SGX544 inside e.g. Texas Instruments OMAP5/DRA7 and that one is running.<br>
I think the main architectural changes were SGX 520 -> SGX 530 -> SX 540<br>
There are minor releases SGX 531, SGX 535, SGX 543 (Sega, iPhone 4s), SGX 544, SGX 545.<br>
This may denote some feature details of the SGX core.<br>
<br>
Maybe this table also helps: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PowerVR#Series5_(SGX)" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PowerVR#Series5_(SGX)</a><br>
<br>

<br>
We hope so! It much depends on how much demand is there in the community. The more we are who want to have it in mainline, the more the maintainers see a reason to look at code.<br>
And we hope by showing how a "universal" driver for mainline could look like to convince Imagination to become more open and helpful.<br>
<br>
I could imagine that they hesitate to spend manpower to support the plethora of hardware devices which doesn't bring them new customers or revenue...<br>
<br>
BR and thanks,<br>
Nikolaus <br>
