The drivers I've touched which handle PCI bus (VIA, S3 (trying to ressurect it) and SIS6326 (buggy still)) all use their own memory allocators for the PCI side and don't go into PCIGART world. SiS supports only linear textures/buffers in main memory via PCI which is a problem to use because of the Linux memory allocator. |
