ziaee created this revision.

fine by me, except please ensure we refer to Rocky Linux(tm) by its official name.

this and the rl9 comment should possibly include the string "Direct Rendering Manager" and possibly the word "GPU" (but not "drivers"), just for consistency, but i don't feel particularly strong about this.

graphics/linux-rl9-libdrm/Makefile

the OS is called "Rocky Linux", not just "Rocky".

+1 for it.
It would be better Direct Rendering "Manager" rather than Direct Rendering "interface".
This could make confusion with DRI (Direct Rendering "Infrastructure").

Shortened term GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) wouldn't be confusing, but OTOH, shortened term DRM can be confused with "Digital Rights Management".

So, we can't explain it at all unless we explain it in three lines?

ziaee marked 3 inline comments as done.

Use ivy's suggestion for linux libdrm comments

It would be better unifying the terms to "Direct Rendering Manager" instead of "DRM" and "Direct Rendering interface".
I have no intention to reject (if so, as I'm assigned as reviewer, I would have rejected).
Just thought it would be clearer.

If you've used the term "Direct Rendering interface" for linux-*-libdrm to indicate these are interface libraries,
graphics/libdrm has "COMMENT= Direct Rendering Manager library and headers"

https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/tree/graphics/libdrm/Makefile#n8

The only thing I wondered to reject or not is "Rocky" and "Rocky Linux" case as ivy commented. Anything else looks better than before for me.

Merged, thanks everyone!
