Carlos,

I need to understand the intent of the patch
"0001-Remove-accelerated-Canvas-support-from-blacklist.patch" you
created for chromium-40. Back then the json block you wanted to remove
for your builds was:

     {  
      "id": 24,
      "description": "Accelerated 2d canvas is unstable in Linux at the
moment",
      "os": {
        "type": "linux"
      },
      "features": [
        "accelerated_2d_canvas"
      ]
    },


In chromium-49 that block looks like:

    {   
      "id": 24,
      "description": "Accelerated 2d canvas is unstable in Linux at the
moment",
      "os": {
        "type": "linux"
      },  
      "exceptions": [
        {
          "gl_vendor": "Vivante Corporation",
          "gl_renderer": "Vivante GC1000"
        }
      ],  
      "features": [
        "accelerated_2d_canvas"
      ]   
    },


Since you do a lot of work with Freescale, Freescale (mostly?) has
Vivante, and the latest code has an exception for Vivante specifically,
are you (or anyone) still interested in carrying this patch forward?

Best regards,
    Trevor
