Hi Yiwei,

I'd like to point out an effort to have drivers label BOs for debugging
purposes: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2019-October/239727.html

I don't know if it would work, but an obvious idea might be to use
those labels for tracking the kinds of buffers - a piece of UAPI which I
believe you are still missing.


Thanks,
pq
