GSoC 2019

This is for recording my GSoC 2019. You can find my GSoC project web page in Google Summer of Code 2019.

What I’ve done

• DRM core ioctl decoding:
  • Almost all core ioctls are decoded.
  • Those ioctls which are nooped in the latest kernel are marked as noop in strace, too.
• Decoding of device-specific DRM ioctls (mostly demos, rework needed):
  • i915.
  • i810.
  • amdgpu.

Links

• Work has been done in branch stuff and branch ready_to_send.
• Zhibin Li’s GSoC status reports in mailing list archives;

TODO

• Investigate those noop ioctls to see whether they are worth decoding in old kernels because strace supports kernel 2.6.18+.
• Make those demo good enough to be merged.
