Rather than letting the DDX allocate the events, allocate them once in the DIX
and just pass it around when needed.
DDX should call GetEventList() to obtain this list and then pass it into
Get{Pointer|Keyboard}Events.
These hints allow an acceleration architecture to optimize allocation of certain
types of pixmaps, such as pixmaps that will serve as backing pixmaps for
redirected windows.
* hw/kdrive/src/Makefile.am: use fb/fbcmap_mi.c
and not fb/fbcmap.c. This allows kdrive to take advantage of
extensions redefining the entry points of micmap.c stuff.
For instance it allows Xephyr to have a working GL, which is not
possible otherwise, because GL redefines mInitVisualsProc
to initialise its visuals.
This was an attempt to avoid scratch gc creation and validation for paintwin
because that was expensive. This is not the case in current servers, and the
danger of failure to implement it correctly (as seen in all previous
implementations) is high enough to justify removing it. No performance
difference detected with x11perf -create -move -resize -circulate on Xvfb.
Leave the screen hooks for PaintWindow* in for now to avoid ABI change.
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.
Composite's automatic redirection is a more general mechanism than the
ad-hoc BS machinery, so it's much prettier to implement the one in terms
of the other. Composite now wraps ChangeWindowAttributes and activates
automatic redirection for windows with backing store requested. The old
backing store infrastructure is completely gutted: ABI-visible structures
retain the function pointers, but they never get called, and all the
open-coded conditionals throughout the DIX layer to implement BS are gone.
Note that this is still not a strictly complete implementation of backing
store, since Composite will throw the bits away on unmap and therefore
WhenMapped and Always hints are equivalent.
I exported the evdev driver to Xephyr server. I'm running it using something
like:
$ ./hw/kdrive/ephyr/Xephyr :1 -mouse evdev,,device=/dev/input/event4 -keybd \
evdev,,device=/dev/input/event1,xkbmodel=abnt2,xkblayout=br
It also closes /#5668.
and the Xephyr virtual mouse keeps alive. With this patch the semantic changes
turning '-pointer' && 'Xephyr virtual mouse' always false.
Now we can open a device pointer and pass its options in Xephyr's command line
without having other pointer unused.
The former <X11/extensions/XKBsrv.h> has been pulled into the server now as
include/xkbsrv.h, and the world updated to look for it in the new place,
since it made no sense to define server API in an extension header. Any
further work along this line will need to do similar things with XKBgeom.h
and friends.
Move the bell into an OS function, and use that if it's declared; else,
fall back to using the driver's function.
Remove the Linux keyboard bell function; just move it into the OS layer.
Use named initialisers when converting the old structures, and eliminate
unused functions.
