[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 2/7] package/freescale-imx/imx-dpu-g2d: new package imx-dpu-g2d package is used by i.MX 8 and i.MX 8X series instead of imx-vpu or imx-vpu-hantro.With this commit, imx-dpu-g2d is added and is enabled for i.MX 8X.

Hi Refik,

Sorry but I disagree with the title/log of this commit.

This has nothing to do with vpu, it's all about g2d which is NXP
interface for 2D graphics operations (CSC, rotation etc).

On most platforms (like i.MX6 for instance) there is a 3D GPU and a 2D
GPU, so for those Vivante package was providing the libg2d libraries
that leveraged the 2D GPU.

Now on newer platform such as i.MX8X, there's no 2D GPU but the display
IP (here called DPU) can perform the 2D operations so another package
was created.

Here is where the selection is made in Yocto:
https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/meta-fsl-bsp-release/tree/imx/meta-bsp/conf/machine/include/imx-base.inc?h=warrior-4.19.35-1.1.0#n222

So my opinion is that, like Yocto, we should create a virtual g2d
package that either be populated by Vivante libs by the platforms that
have 2D GPU or by DPU on others.

Regards,
Gary
