Everyone knows them, except all the new folks joining from the ARM side haven't lived through all the pain of the past years and are entirely surprised when I raise this. Definitely time to document this. Last time this was a big discussion was about 6 years ago, when qcom tried to land a kernel driver without userspace. Dave Airlie made the rules really clear: http://airlied.livejournal.com/73115.html This write-up here is essentially what I've put into a presentation a while ago, which was also reviewed by Dave: http://blog.ffwll.ch/2015/05/gfx-kernel-upstreaming-requirements.html v2: Fix typos Eric&Rob spotted. v3: Nitpick from Jani.
