Pending TODO List

[Portability] write a portable version of pci_read_config_dword, use it in nouveau_mem.c
write a test for register endianness. Some bioses (notably the mac's openfirmware) setup the nvidia regs as big endian. Ideally, we should read a known reg, see if it is backwards and act accordingly from that information.
fix the page size mapping problem on G5/64 bit for exposing fifo regs
add support for suspend/resume ; that requires getting the DDX's bios code to work, then move it to the kernel, then add some save/restore code in the DRM. Help with implementing suspend2disk or suspend2ram

[Junior] Cleanup the remaining obfuscated parts of the code. In particular, reinstate register names instead of hardcoded constants, also try to reinsert relevant comments or unobfuscated parts from http://cvsweb.xfree86.org/cvsweb/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/vga256/drivers/nv/?hideattic=0&only_with_tag=xf-3_3_3
optimize core EXA to generate less requests that nv10/20/30 can't handle (namely repeats of 1*N or N*1 surfaces can have their "1" direction replaced with a stretch and N replaced with a loop. those are highly used to draw window borders).

(not really, there are enough bugs in our (6) gallium drivers that you can pick something)

[Junior] cleanup the copyrights so that they mention the authors, add them when needed, check that there is no stuff like "IN NO EVENT SHALL VIA, S3 GRAPHICS, AND/OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM" which isn't quite right (we aren't supposed to discharge VIA or S3 from liability, but the authors). We have to spot all the files bearing such issues, and fix them.
Get rid of G7x/G8x naming everywhere, replace it with the NVxx naming
Port the xbox bits http://xbox.cvs.sourceforge.net/xbox-linux/kernel-2.6/drivers/video/xbox/ and http://xbox.cvs.sourceforge.net/xbox-linux/xf86-video-nvxbox/ to nouveau

[Junior] Figure out how depth handling is different with a 16bit versus 24bit depth buffer. In particular, if depth clear values have to be changed and so on...
[Junior] Figure out how color buffer handling is different with a 16bit versus 32bit colors.
Figure out the commands emitted on NV10, NV20, NV30 and NV40 by the following enables : GL_AUTO_NORMAL, GL_COLOR_MATERIAL, GL_COLOR_SUM_EXT, GL_CONVOLUTION_1D, GL_INDEX_LOGIC_OP, GL_LINE_SMOOTH, GL_LINE_STIPPLE,GL_MAP1_COLOR_4, GL_MAP1_INDEX, GL_MAP1_NORMAL, GL_MAP1_TEXTURE_COORD_1, GL_MAP1_TEXTURE_COORD_2, GL_MAP1_TEXTURE_COORD_3, GL_MAP1_TEXTURE_COORD_4, GL_MAP1_VERTEX_3, GL_MAP1_VERTEX_4, GL_MAP2_COLOR_4, GL_MAP2_INDEX, GL_MAP2_NORMAL, GL_MAP2_TEXTURE_COORD_1, GL_MAP2_TEXTURE_COORD_2, GL_MAP2_TEXTURE_COORD_3, GL_MAP2_TEXTURE_COORD_4, GL_MAP2_VERTEX_3, GL_MAP2_VERTEX_4. refer GL also figure out if those enables are useful to any real OpenGL application.
unify the NV10_TCL, NV20_TCL and NV30_TCL offset names. Right now there are offsets for similar commands that bear different names.
[Junior with OpenGL knowledge] write new tests for unexplored extensions, see also GL
create a bot that picks up dump tarballs from the irc channel, downloads them, formats them in the right format and uploads them with correct permissions
[Junior] merge the xbox commands found in inner.txt into the NV20_TCL_PRIMITIVE object

Some renouveau tests leak state on each other; try to fix this
