 1. DRM userspace work.  Need a DRM enabled xf86 driver for X.org.

        described here:

        support for the HiKey platform.

xf86-video-modesetting should be enough, that used DRM/KMS for modesetting and will optionally use GL to accelerate 2d operations.

Thanks for your feedback. Actually, this is my first time to do X11 integration work. I'm not sure if we need to write some code on xf86 driver for X.org. I'll find out that if xf86-video-modesetting is enough. It seems you have experience on X11. Can i ask you some questions if i encounter some on X11. Thanks very much.
