2007-06-28nouveau: Nuke DMA_OBJECT_INIT ioctl (bumps interface to 0.0.7)Ben Skeggs
For various reasons, this ioctl was a bad idea. At channel creation we now automatically create DMA objects covering available VRAM and GART memory, where the client used to do this themselves. However, there is still a need to be able to create DMA objects pointing at specific areas of memory (ie. notifiers). Each channel is now allocated a small amount of memory from which a client can suballocate things (such as notifiers), and have a DMA object created which covers the suballocated area. The NOTIFIER_ALLOC ioctl exposes this functionality.
