Phoronix: Work On DRM PRIME Is Back Underway
The PRIME GPU offloading work for the Linux kernel is being touched once again...

The link to the Git repo in the article is dead.
edit: Freedesktop Gitweb seems to be down as other Git repos at Freedesktop also return 404.
I wonder if this is related to two new competitors appearing ;) (ironhide/bumblebee and virtual crtc).
Competitors?
Bumblebee/Ironhide are slow, incomplete software-level solutions. Virtual CRTC is a clever hardware-level solution but not everyone is happy with how it would work.
PRIME is endgame. It will work exactly how it needs to.
