Re: [PATCH 0/6] drm: Add mouse cursor hotspot support to atomic KMS

Hi,

I don’t think I see how that fixes anything. In particular I don’t see a way of fixing the old user space at all. We require hotspot info, old user space doesn’t set it because there’s no way of setting it on atomic kms. Whether we expose cursor plane or not doesn’t change the fact that we still require the hotspot info.

Not exposing a cursor plane at all forces swcursor, which sidesteps the hotspot issue at the expense of a rather sluggish pointer updates because those suddenly require a round-trip to the guest.

take care, Gerd
