Linux 7.5 To Upstream Driver For New Glanda GPU

Sent out today was the drm-misc-next pull request for the week of new material to queue in DRM-Next until the Linux 7.5 merge window gets underway in late December. Most notable this week is the introduction of the new GlandaGPU driver. GlandaGPU was covered a few months ago on Phoronix as an open-source soft GPU core design. GlandaGPU is designed in VHDL and running currently on FPGA hardware such as the Cycle V FPGA SoC. It's an open-source, community-based GPU design that can also be emulated with QEMU for those lacking the FPGA hardware. It's fun for learning and open-source demos but don't expect to do any gaming or productive tasks on it with its VGA output at 640x480 and 2D acceleration engine. In addition to queuing this GlandaGPU driver for the mainline Linux kernel, this week also brought HyperV cursor plane support, support for the Allwinner T527 VIP9000 in the Etnaviv driver, and various panel updates. The full list of drm-misc-next patches this week for Linux 7.5 can be found via this pull request.
