How can I get the full source code of the Mali GPU DDK?

"The Linux version of the Mali DDKs include two components which run within the kernel. The most important of these, known as the Device Driver, provides the low-level access to the Mali-200 or Mali-400 GPU. An important, secondary component is the Unified Memory Profider (UMP) which can be used in a variety of ways to faciliate zero-copy operations within the driver stack.

From the r2p0 release onwards, both of these components are being made available under the GPLv2 licence. This page provides access to the source packages from which loadable kernel modules can be built.

Note that these two components are not a complete driver stack. To build a functional OpenGL ES or OpenVG driver you need access to the full source code of the Mali DDK, which is provided under the standard ARM commercial licence to all Mali GPU customers." cited from malideveloper.arm.com.

I have no idea that where I can get the full source code of the Mali GPU DDK. Does it means that Mali GPU products are equipped with the full source code of the Mail DDK which is used to build a complete driver stack by "provided under the standard ARM commercial licence to all Mail GPU customers".

Sorry to my ignorance,

Best Regards,

  • Hi Michael

    Thanks a lot for this feedback.

    Our silicon partner do provide us with ARM material (basically binary blobs that suit our needs and we have NDAs with them) but I work for R&D team and we'd like to prototype some new services on top of ARM products.

    I could ask our silicon partner to subcontract but since it's not directly connected to project we are working on with them I think it's better for us to deal directly with you.

    Is there any business contact I can reach to discuss direct licensing?

    Best regards,

    Antoine
