The project to update the Intel graphics chipset driver
(i915kms) to a recent snapshot of the Linux upstream code
continues. A patch with a large chunk of updates has been
made available to check for regressions against current
functionality, but is not yet expected to provide fully
functional new functionality. The GEM I/O ioctl code path

functionality, but is not yet expected to provide working new functions.
The GEM I/O ioctl code path
has been modified to more closely resemble the Linux code
