Linus Torvalds ba331d5dec Merge branch 'drm-nouveau-destage' of git://people.freedesktop.org/~airlied/linux
Pull nouveau destaging + Kelper modesetting support from Dave Airlie:
 "This pull request is unexpected and not something I had mentioned
  previously.

  So NVIDIA announced new Kepler GPUs this morning, and Ben has killed
  himself getting modesetting support for them together to have on
  launch day.  Most of the code to support the new chips has already
  gone in, however this pull contains a few more pieces along with the
  final enables so the driver binds to the new Kepler cards.  Its quite
  amazing that nouveau can support a GPU on its launch day even if its
  just unaccelerated modesetting, and I'd like to have support in the
  next kernel.

  In order to sweeten the deal, Ben has also requested nouveau destage
  and become ABI stable, the only change is the version number bump
  which he prepared userspace for quite a long time ago.  The driver
  hasn't broken ABI since that one big break that caused a lot of fuss.

  It's also quite a small set of code, and not likely to break anything."

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.


Documentation on the DRI is available from:
    http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Documentation
