    drm/vc4: Add an API for creating GPU shaders in GEM BOs. · 463873d5
    Eric Anholt authored
    Since we have no MMU, the kernel needs to validate that the submitted
    shader code won't make any accesses to memory that the user doesn't
    control, which involves banning some operations (general purpose DMA
    writes), and tracking where we need to write out pointers for other
    operations (texture sampling).  Once it's validated, we return a GEM
    BO containing the shader, which doesn't allow mapping for write or
    exporting to other subsystems.
    
    v2: Use __u32-style types.
