XkbFinishDeviceInit does the following:
xkbi->kbdProc= pXDev->kbdfeed->CtrlProc;
pXDev->kbdfeed->CtrlProc= XkbDDXKeybdCtrlProc;
If we directly copy the device classes for the VCK, pXDev->kbdfeed->CtrlProc
at the time of copying is still XbkDDXKeybdCtrlProc. So at some point
XkbDDXKeybdCtrlProc is called, and calls itself, and calls itself, and...
Setting the device's classes to NULL seems to fix things. The memory isn't
lost, it gets stored into the devPrivates and freed at device closing time.
FindPCIVideoInfo() function isn't need anymore.
xf86scanpci() is being called only once so we don't need permanent
(static) variables there.
restorePciState() is not used for now (until we find why multiple
cards aren't working).
Formerly the code claimed it could only handle up to 256 visuals, which
was true. Also true, but not explicitly stated, was that it could only
handle visuals with VID < 256. If you have enough screens, and subsystems
that add lots of visuals, you can easily run off the end. (Made worse
because we allocate visual IDs from the same pool as XIDs.) If your app
then chooses a visual > 256, then the Xinerama code would throw BadMatch
on CreateColormap and your app wouldn't start.
With this change, PanoramiXVisualTable is gone. Other subsystems that
were using it as a translation table between each screen's visuals now
use a PanoramiXTranslateVisual() helper.
When an expose event happens on an host GL window paired with an
internal drawable, route that expose event to the clients listening
to the expose event on the internal drawable.
To recap: the original XC-SECURITY extension disallowed background "None" if
the window was untrusted. XACE 1.0 preserved this check as a hook function.
XACE pre-2.0 removed the hook and first abolished background "None entirely,
then restored it as a global on/off switch in response to Bug #13683.
Now it's back to being per-window, via a flag instead of a hook function.
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.
Before we enable the device through the driver, we size it up and make sure
that the events in the event list contain enough bytes for a possible
ClassesChangedEvent lateron.
The latter is used to increase the amount of allocated memory for the event
list. This will be needed for ClassesChangedEvents that can be of more or less
arbitrary size (larger than 32 anyway).
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.
