Subject: [PATCH 00/26] hw/display/apple-gfx: New macOS PV Graphics device
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

This sequence of patches integrates the paravirtualised graphics device
implemented by macOS's ParavirtualizedGraphics.Framework into Qemu.
Combined with the guest drivers which ship with macOS versions 11 and up,
this allows the guest OS to use the host's GPU for hardware accelerated
3D graphics, GPGPU compute (both using the 'Metal' graphics API), and
window compositing.


Hi,

Thanks for continuing his effort.

Yes!

Please submit a patch series that includes his patches. Please also merge fixes for his patches into them. This saves the effort to review the obsolete code and keeps git bisect working.

Should be as easy as squashing patches 1-6, right?

The cover letter says:

So these patches are certainly to be squashed. There are other patches titled "fixes" or "refactoring", which should also be squashed. I expect squashing them will reduce the number of patches (and code to review) drastically.
