xf86 drivers need to create RandR object in the PreInit stage,
before the ScreenRec is allocated. Changing the RandR DIX code
to permit this required the addition of functions that later associate the
objects with the related screen.
An additional change is that modes are now global, and no longer associated
with a specific screen. This change actually makes mode management cleaner
as there is no more per-screen list of modes to deal with.
This changes the RandR 1.2 ABI/API for drivers.
If we're mapping something in the "legacy range" (0-1Mb), we shouldn't
expand the requested range to the entire 0-1Mb range. Typically this
is for mapping the VGA frame buffer, and some platforms support mmap of
the frame buffer but not the entire 0-1Mb range.
For example, HP sx1000 and sx2000 ia64 platforms can have memory from
0-0x9ffff, VGA frame buffer from 0xa0000-0xbffff, and memory from
0xc0000-0xfffff. On these platforms, we can't map the entire 0-1Mb
range with the same attribute because the memory only supports WB,
while the frame buffer supports only UC. But an mmap of just the
frame buffer should work fine.
Mach64 driver bails out on ia64 because it cannot map device
memory. It turns out that some bogus and unneeded code attempts
to find the root bridge of the device and fails to do so proberly
as there this host-to-pci bridge is not existant. This code has
been around for years although it completely unclear what it had
been intended for. Fixing this by eliminating the bogus code.
Add a server flag (AllowEmptyInput), which will inhibit adding the
standard keyboard and mouse drivers, if there are no input devices in the
config file.
Add a generic 'ring the bell' function (console bell on Linux and BSD,
/dev/audio on Solaris), and add DDX functions for this. Make this the
core keyboard's bell.
Port Xvfb and Xnest to this.
Port XFree86 to this, with OS-specific hooks for Linux, BSD, and Solaris
taken from foo_io.c in the old layer.
Don't allow users to change the core pointer.
Fix xf86SendDragEvents to check the device button state, not the core
pointer's.
Remove unused xf86CheckButton.
Update the DEVICE_ABS_CALIB stuff to include the new elements.
New DEVICE_ABS_AREA support.
dev->touchscreen becomes dev->absolute, with _CALIB and _AREA stuff in it.
Update xfree86 to compile with this, kdrive needs an update too.
