It seems to do vertical mirroring providing your output buffer is allocated and aligned on page boundaries as the GTT can then be used to map the scan lines in any order you like ?

Oh, right. That would be possible, but that sounds like something that needs to be done on the gem side rather than the kms side since it impacts other things besides scanout memory access. Well either that or we'd potentially need to map the same object multiple times into the ggtt.
