Linux kernel source tree
9bbfda544e
At one point, the GPU command verifier and user-space handle manager couldn't properly protect GPU clients from accessing each other's data. Instead there was an elaborate mechanism to make sure only the active master's primary clients could render. The other clients were either put to sleep or even killed (if the master had exited). VRAM was evicted on master switch. With the advent of render-node functionality, we relaxed the VRAM eviction, but the other mechanisms stayed in place. Now that the GPU command verifier and ttm object manager properly isolate primary clients from different master realms we can remove the master switch related code and drop those legacy features.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
