The problem fixed by this patch can be reproduced on Linux with the
following steps.
- Access NULL pointer intentionally in ProcessOtherEvent on key press.
- Instead of saving core dump to a file, write it into a pipe.
echo "|/usr/sbin/my-core-dumper" > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
- Dump the core by pressing a key.
While the core is being dumped into the pipe, the smart schedule timer
will cause a pending SIGALRM. Linux kernel stops writing data to the
pipe when there are pending signals. This causes the core dump to be
truncated. On my system I'm expecting a 6 MB dump but the size will be
60 kB instead. The problem is solved if we block the SIGALRM caused by
expired smart schedule timer.
I haven't been able to reproduce this problem in the following cases.
- Save core dump to a file instead of a pipe.
- kill -SEGV `pidof Xorg`
- Press a key to dump core while gdb is attached to Xorg.
- Give option -dumbSched to Xorg.
Also note that the fix works only when NoTrapSignals has the default
value FALSE. The problem can still be reproduced if error signals
aren't trapped. In addition to pending SIGALRM, there is a similar
problem with pending SIGIO from the keyboard driver during core dump.

The only DDX currently using hotplugging is the xfree86 one and it looks
like it'll stay that way for a bit. Move the initialization to the DDX,
since Xephyr, Xnest, and friends don't need HAL or udev notifications.
Add CloseInput (counterpart to InitInput) to be able to clean up the config
initialization from the DDX as well.

xextproto had Xlib client headers moved into libXext.
Protocol header files are named fooproto.h, header files with constants
foo.h or fooconst.h where foo.h was already in use for client-side headers.
Otherwise no subsequent driver will be able to claim this pci slot.
Example for this: fbdev tries to claim, but framebuffer device is not
available. Later on VESA cannot claim the device.
A grep on xorg/* revealed there's no consumer of this define.
Quote Alan Coopersmith:
"The consumer was in past versions of the headers now located
in proto/x11proto - for instance, in X11R6.0's xc/include/Xproto.h,
all the event definitions were only available if NEED_EVENTS were
defined, and all the reply definitions required NEED_REPLIES.
Looks like Xproto.h dropped them by X11R6.3, which didn't have
the #ifdef's anymore, so these are truly ancient now."

Save in a few special cases, _X_EXPORT should not be used in C source
files. Instead, it should be used in headers, and the proper C source
include that header. Some special cases are symbols that need to be
shared between modules, but not expected to be used by external drivers,
and symbols that are accessible via LoaderSymbol/dlopen.
This patch also adds conditionally some new sdk header files, depending
on extensions enabled. These files were added to match pattern for
other extensions/modules, that is, have the headers "deciding" symbol
visibility in the sdk. These headers are:
o Xext/panoramiXsrv.h, Xext/panoramiX.h
o fbpict.h (unconditionally)
o vidmodeproc.h
o mioverlay.h (unconditionally, used only by xaa)
o xfixes.h (unconditionally, symbols required by dri2)
LoaderSymbol and similar functions now don't have different prototypes,
in loaderProcs.h and xf86Module.h, so that both headers can be included,
without the need of defining IN_LOADER.
xf86NewInputDevice() device prototype readded to xf86Xinput.h, but
not exported (and with a comment about it).
Just ignore devices after MAXDEVICES has been reached, but warn the user that
the devices are ignored.

This is the biggest "visibility" patch. Instead of doing a "export"
symbol on demand, export everything in the sdk, so that if some module
fails due to an unresolved symbol, it is because it is using a symbol
not in the sdk.
Most exported symbols shouldn't really be made visible, neither
advertised in the sdk, as they are only used by a single shared object.
Symbols in the sdk (or referenced in sdk macros), but not defined
anywhere include:

No point warning about missing driver hooks, that just means the person
who gave you the driver is inept. Might as well just crash. Also,
just name anonymous screens as screen%d instead of failing after the 36th
screen. Bonus points if you can figure out what the failure mode would
be on the 36th screen, and what the effective screen limit was.
OsInitColors always just returned TRUE, so just remove calls to it and
insane special-case logic. Remove unused kcolor.c implementation, and
merge oscolor.h into oscolor.c since it was the only user. Remove
open-coded strncasecmp in oscolor.c.
Since we no longer need to call OsInitColors after reading the config
file, just call PostConfigInit() from one place, and move PM handling to
one place so we can install the signal handlers earlier.

This reverts commit 3abce3ea2b and
6cbaf15e61.
The memory returned to xf86LoadModule was allocated in doLoadModule, which
calls the respective module's PreInit. As it turns out, input and output
drivers store a pointer to the module elswhere, so freeing it in
xf86LoadModule is a bad idea.
For further reference: hw/xfree86/common/xf86Helper.c
Input drivers: xf86InputDriverList[blah]->module = module;
Output drivers: xf86DriverList[blah]->module = module;
Unloading the module would not look pretty then.
LoadModule() returns the only reference to a fresh piece of memory (a
ModuleDescPtr). Sadly, xf86LoadModules dropped the return value on the floor
leaking memory for each module it loaded.

This is what we're currently shipping in Debian. Enables the ability for
drivers to ship a text file listing PCI ID's they support, and have the
server read them on startup when no driver is specified. This works, but
isn't the final solution.
Previously, the server version reported by xdpyinfo and Xorg -version would
bear some vague resemblance to a X.Org katamari version, but in the presence
of modularization (and client-server relationships with different katamari
versions on each side) those numbers don't really make sense. Instead, just
report the package version.
When branching a stable branch, master's version should be immediately updated
to the endpoint of the stable branch plus a snapshot of 1 (for example,
1.4.0.1 after server-1.4-branch). The stable branch should then be changed to
RC0 at that time (1.3.99.0, for example).
This scheme was partially attempted for server 1.3, but lacked the appropriate
master updates, thus why it had to be revisited now. While here, we can also
remove a lot of versioning complexity since everything is based on the package
version.
over to new system.
Need to update documentation and address some remaining vestiges of
old system such as CursorRec structure, fb "offman" structure, and
FontRec privates.
Make sure the font path is always 'built-ins' when we use built-in fonts,
rather than having it as a fixed path for a while, then clobbering it
halfway through startup.
I made a mistake in some new code using MakeAtom, passing the size of the
string instead of the length of the string. Figuring there might be other
such mistakes, I reviewed the server code and found four bugs of the same
form.
