When building the new mode setting code out-of-tree against an older server,
don't use xf86RandR12TellChanged as that is a RandR 1.2 specific interface.
SourceValidate is used exclusively by the software cursor code to pull the
cursor off of the screen before using the screen as a source operand. This
eliminates the software cursor from the frame buffer while painting the
rotated image though. Disabling this function by temporarily setting the
screen function pointer to NULL causes the cursor image to be captured.
Setting a mode on an unrotated CRTC was causing all of the rotation updates
to be disabled; the loop looking for active rotation wasn't actually looking
at each crtc, it was looking at the modified crtc many times.
I've managed to solve my own bug (#10545) by applying the following
patch to the xserver.
Please apply.
<Conspiracy mode on>
This monitor is "Vista Certified". I wonder if this is a pure coincidence...
<Conspiracy mode off>
With kind regards

Option "Enable" "True" will force the server to enable an output at startup
time, even if the output is not connected. This also causes the default
modes to be added for this output, allowing even sync ranges to be used to
pick out standard modes.
By default, use the screen monitor section for output 0, however, a driver
can change which output gets the screen monitor by calling
xf86OutputUseScreenMonitor.
This Acer monitor reports support for 75hz refresh via EDID, and yet when
that rate is delivered, the monitor does not sync and reports out of range.
Use the existing 60hz quirk for this monitor.
xf86SetSingleMode tries to resize all crtcs to match the selected mode. When
a CRTC has no matching mode, it now disables the CRTC (instead of crashing).
Also, poke the RandR extension when xf86SetSingleMode is done so that
appropriate events can be delivered, and so that future RandR queries return
correct information.
This is necessary because server-1.2-branch bumped to 1.1 for xf86CVTMode and
we have xf86XVFillKeyHelperDrawable on top of that.

This allows overlay Xv adaptors to work slightly better with compositing
managers.
Bump the video driver ABI minor so drivers only need to check for this at build
time.

The fbdev API doesn't allow setting the pitch explicitly, so we have to set
the virtual width to the pitch we're using for drawing. This fixes corruption
after changing the virtual width with RandR.

The fbdev API allows the driver to 'accept' modes it doesn't really support by
modifying it to the nearest supported mode. Without this check, e.g. vesafb
would appear to accept all modes, even though it actually can't set any modes
other than the bootup mode at all.

Yes, two changes in one commit. Sorry 'bout that.
The first change ensures that when pending property values have been
changed, a mode set to the current mode will actually do something, rather
than being identified as a no-op. In addition, the driver no longer needs to
manage the migration of pending to current values, that is handled both
within the xf86 mode setting code (to deal with non-RandR changes) as well
as within the RandR extension itself.
The second change eliminates the two-call Create/AttachScreen stuff that was
done in a failed attempt to create RandR resources before the screen
structures were allocated. Merging these back into the Create function is
cleaner.
desiredX and desiredY were not recorded during xf86InitialConfiguration.
desiredX, desiredY and desiredRotation were not recorded during
xf86SetSingleMode.
Pending Properties take effect when the driver says they do, so provide an
API to tell DIX when a property effect is made. Also, allow driver
to reject property values in RRChangeOutputProperty.
The DDC code sets the I2C timeouts to VESA standards, except that it had an
extra setting of the ByteTimeout value which was wrong (off by a factor of
50). Removing this should help DDC work on many more monitors. Note that the
Intel driver duplicated these settings, along with the error. Yay for cult
and paste coding.
Rotation block handler was re-registering the rotation damage structure,
creating an infinite loop in the damage code. Track registration of the
damage structure to avoid this.
xf86_reload_cursors is supposed to be called from the crtc mode setting
commit hook; as that happens during server initialization, check for this
case.
This moves most of the cursor management code out of the intel driver and
into the general server code. Of course, the hope is that this code will be
useful for other driver writers as well.
Check out xf86Crtc.h for the usage information, making sure you add the
needed hooks to the crtc funcs structure for your driver.
Previous version used monitor identifiers if present, otherwise output
names. That caused existing working configurations to break when additional
information was added to the configuration file.
Screen physical size is set to a random value before the RandR code gets
control, override that and reset it to a value based on the compat_output
physical size (if available). If that output has no physical size, just use
96dpi as the default resolution and set the physical size as appropriate.
xf86SetDesiredModes applies the desired modes to each crtc (as selected by
xf86InitialConfiguration initially and modified by successful mode settings
afterwards). For crtcs without a desired mode, pScrn->currentMode is used to
select something workable.
This function applies a single mode to the screen (as from RandR 1.1,
XFree86-VidModeExtension or XFree86-DGA) using a policy that selects one
output to reconfigure to the requested mode and then makes all other outputs
fit within that size.
Box transformation from source to dest area was broken, leaving the wrong
areas painted when the crtc origin was non-zero.
When rotating from left to right, the pixmap doesn't get reallocated, and so
no damage was left in the pixmap from xf86RotatePrepare. Separately damage
the whole crtc area when this occurs to repaint the area.
canGrow indicates to the DDX that the driver can enlarge the desktop via the
xf86_config->funcs->resize hook. If so, xf86InitialConfiguration will set
virtual[XY] to match the configuration it chooses and will leave the crtc config
size ranges alone. If FALSE, it will bloat the screen to fit the largest probed
mode and also set the crtc config max size to limit the desktop to the initial
virtual[XY] size.
This hook is called when the DDX needs to resize the screen. The driver is
responsible for changing virtualX and virtualY, along with any other related
screen properties (devPrivate.ptr, devKind, displayWidth, etc.).
Use the size range from the crtc config instead of randrp->virtual[XY] when
reporting the min and max screen sizes to the DDX.
The xf86 mode setting code was mis-using this field to try and store a
pointer to a DisplayModeRec, however, each output has its own copy of every
DisplayModeRec leaving the one in in the RRModeRec devPrivate field pointing
at a random DisplayModeRec.
Instead of attempting to rectify this, eliminating the devPrivate entirely
turned out to be very easy; the DDX code now accepts an arbitrary RRModeRec
structure and set that to the hardware, converting it on the fly to a
DisplayModeRec as needed.
The RandR protocol spec has several requests in support of user-defined
modes, but the implementation was stubbed out inside the X server. Fill out
the DIX portion and start on the xf86 DDX portion. It might be necessary to
add more code to the DDX to insert the user-defined modes into the output
mode list.
