One of these I introduced by listing dix and mi in the same library list to
simplify other servers. The other had been hacked around using libosandcommon,
which is now gone.
compNewPixmap copies bits from the parent window to the redirected child
pixmap to populate the pixmap with reasonable data. It cannot always use
CopyArea as that only works across matching depths. Use Composite when
the depths do not match.
Clients expect any Xinerama-enabled screen to report at least one
monitor, but with RandR, there may not be any enabled crtcs. In this case,
tell the client that Xinerama is not active.
The timestamp transferred in the X protocol is a 32-bit number of
milliseconds.
The timestamp stored in the server is a structure that contains two fields:
months (!) and milliseconds.
When the server passes the config timestamp to the client, it discards the
months part and sends only the milliseconds part.
When the server receives the config timestamp from the client, it tries to
guess the "months" part by looking at the current time and then maybe adding
or
subtracting one. The guess is wrong after the server has been running long
enough (several hours).
I have added two ErrorF calls around the 'if' statement that returns
RRSetConfigInvalidConfigTimestamp in randr/randr.c and my Xorg.0.log has
this:
randr request got good config time: 0:-2103495671
for the first few successful xrandr calls, and
randr request failed with RRSetConfigInvalidConfigTime: client passed
1:-2103495671, server has 0:-2103495671
when it fails. The server has been running for 8 and a half hours.
The obvious fix would be to ignore the months field and only compare the
milliseconds.
MAXBUFSIZE appears to be a leftover of some previous time. Instead, just
use maxBigRequestSize when bigreqs are available (limiting buffers to ~16MB).
When bigreqs are not available, needed won't be larger than the maximum
size of a non-bigreqs request (256kB).
This cleans up server Makefile.ams a little bit, but also means that people
messing with configure.ac need to be careful with whether they put libraries
in the _LIBS or _SYS_LIBS targets. Hopefully the comment in configure.ac will
clarify the issues.
If message iterator cannot be created, the caller didn't supply any
parameters. Return BadValue, instead of dying a horrible death while being
stuck in an endless loop.
The author of the int10 code looked at the VBIOS POSTing code
in DOSEMU to get some initial idea on how to POST a VBIOS.
To give credit to the DOSEMU Team for this inspiration a comment
was added to the code which could suggest that code from the
GPLed DOSEMU was directly incorporated into this code.
This patch should clearify the situation.
Licensing issues of these files include:
- They claim to be licensed under the GPL, yet we haven't allowed that in the
xserver repository in the past.
- They refer the user to the top of the tree for GPL license text, yet it isn't
there.
- They claim to be derived from the (MIT-licensed) ati kdrive code, yet don't
follow the licensing terms of those files.
Note that pciaccess doesn't yet have Net/OpenBSD support, but the relevant
code should go there instead of disconnected code in the X Server.
While here, remove the now-disabled INCLUDE_XF86_NO_DOMAIN from the headers,
and un-disable xf8StdAccResFromOS for those OSes without domain support which
will need it.
This was a bunch of poorly defined resource ranges per OS/platform combination
which were supposed to represent what regions could potentially have resources
allocated into them.
Debian bug #272368http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=272368
In certain locales, some characters from some TrueType fonts were not
appearing in the Xprint postscript output due to the font not being
identified in the postscript output.
The plural version is now static, which is fine since it was only ever called
from within picture post-init anyway. The body of the work is now done with
a one-shot (public) function that operates on a single format at a time.
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.
