Imagination Kernel Graphics Driver Being Extended To AM62P/AM67A/J722S SoCs
The open-source and upstream Imagination Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) kernel graphics driver for supporting their modern graphics IP and pairing with their PowerVR Vulkan driver within Mesa is now being extended to work on the TI AM62P, AM67A, and J722S SoCs.
Linux developer Michael Walle sent out the patches this week for extending the Imagination driver support to these TI SoCs.
