Subject: [PATCH 2/5] drm: Add DRM_MODE_PAGE_FLIP_ASYNC flag definition
Date: Mon, 22 Jul 2013 18:49:59 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1374544202-15496-3-git-send-email-keithp@keithp.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1374544202-15496-1-git-send-email-keithp@keithp.com>

This requests that the driver perform the page flip as soon as
possible, not necessarily waiting for vblank.
