Userspace Linux

It should be possible to implement GUD in userspace using USB FunctionFS. The problem is that AFAICT this leads to a memcpy when the USB buffer crosses from the kernel into userspace. This will degrade performance, but since I haven't tried it I don't know how severe that is.

Going from userspace into the DRM buffers is no problem since they can be mmap'ed.

Android

It would have been really cool to see old tablets and phones reused as GUD touch displays!
