Description

Flip pages asynchronously has been available for a long time in DRM through the old API. This operation allows userspace to update the display content as soon as possible, regardless of the vblank. However, it still not possible to do so using DRM's Atomic commit API yet.

This talk will present the progress made so far to enable this, the challenges and the remaining work to get this merged.
