Hi,

For some time i haven't been paying much attention to dri development.
I'm need to do some work now but I'm little lost. From my little
investigation I presume that situation looks more less like this.

* 3d driver development was moved to mesa tree, bu it needs dri tree in
order to compile.

Yes.


* Drm was moved to it's own module and it's developed there not in old
place in xc module and not in dri/drm subdirectory in mesa tree.

Yes.


* DDX driver is still in xc module.

Yes.


Is there a plan to make 3d driver compile without dri tree? If so is it
going to be completely removed?

There is a plan, of sorts. Even after the drivers build completely within the Mesa tree, the stuff under lib/GL/mesa won't be able to completely go away. It is still needed to build the server-side libGLcore.a.


What about DDX driver and DRI extension? Is it going to be moved
somewhere? XOrg or freedesktop's xserver trees? Maybe both?

All of the server-side "stuff" and the client-side glue (i.e., libGL.so) will stay in DRI CVS. Basically, the only stuff that's going to move out of DRI CVS is the stuff that isn't tied to / dependent on X.


BTW: I have local mirror (CVSup) of dri's cvs repository but drm module
isn't there. I presume because it's not in 'dri' collection. If I'm
right, can somebody add it?

I'm not sure who the right person is to do that...
