In addition to the conf files found in /etc/X11 or $sysconfdir/X11 used
for local administration, we also reserve a system directory for vendor
and package usage. The simple search path is:
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d
$datadir/X11/xorg.conf.d
Files from these directories will have the lowest config priority. The
directory $datadir/X11/xorg.conf.d is exported from xorg-server.pc in
the variable "sysconfigdir". Packages should install their .conf files
to the directory specified by:
`pkg-config --variable=sysconfigdir xorg-server`

Currently the config and InputClasses are merged together so that the
options from the config backend have the highest priority. This is bad
since it means options such as a default XKB layout set by the backend
cannot be changed by the user.
This patch changes order of precedence to be:
1. xorg.conf
2. xorg.conf.d (later files have higher priority)
3. config backend
In order to allow this ordering, the config parsing has been changed to
read the xorg.conf.d files before xorg.conf. This has the consequence
that the core device picking which looks for the first InputDevice may
not find it in xorg.conf.

Tags may be a list of comma-separated strings that match against a MatchTag
InputClass section. If any of the tags specified for a device match against
the MatchTag of the section, this match is evaluated true and passed on to
the next match condition.
Tags are specified as "input.tags" (hal) or "ID_INPUT.tags" (udev), the
value of the tags is case-sensitive and require an exact match (not a
substring match).
i.e. "quirk" will not match "QUIRK", "need_quirk" or "quirk_needed".
Example configuration:
udev:
ENV{ID_INPUT.tags}="foo,bar"
hal:
<merge key="input.tags" type="string">foo,bar</merge>
xorg.conf:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "foobar quirks"
MatchTag "foo|foobar"
Option "Foobar" "on"
EndSection
Where the xorg.conf section matches against any device with the tag "foo"
or tag "foobar" set.

In order to keep the number of InputClass sections manageable, allow
matches to contain multiple arguments. The arguments will be separated
by the '|' character. This allows a policy to apply to multiple types of
devices. For example:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Inverted Mice"
MatchProduct "Crazy Mouse|Silly Mouse"
Option "InvertX" "yes"
EndSection
This applies to the MatchProduct, MatchVendor and MatchDevicePath
entries. Currently there is no way to escape characters, so names or
patterns cannot contain '|'.

Currently Xorg uses hal's fdi files to decide what configuration options
are applied to automatically added input devices. This is sub-optimal
since it requires users to use a new and different configuration store
than xorg.conf.
The InputClass section attempts to provide a system similar to hal where
configuration can be applied to all devices with certain attributes. For
now, devices can be matched to:
* A substring of the product name via a MatchProduct entry
* A substring of the vendir name via a MatchVendor entry
* A pathname pattern of the device file via a MatchDevicePath entry
* A device type via boolean entries for MatchIsKeyboard, MatchIsPointer,
MatchIsJoystick, MatchIsTablet, MatchIsTouchpad and MatchIsTouchscreen
See the INPUTCLASS section in xorg.conf(5) for more details.

Any input device with this option will be automatically added to whichever
server layout is selected at startup. This removes the need to reference a
device from the ServerLayout section. The two following configuration are
identical:
CONFIG 1:
Section "ServerLayout"
InputDevice "foo"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "foo"
...
EndSection
CONFIG 2:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "foo"
Option "AutoServerLayout" "on"

Currently there is a single file, xorg.conf, for configuring the server.
This works fine most of the time, but it becomes a problem when packages
or system services need to adjust the configuration. Instead, allow
multiple configuration files to live in a directory. Typically this will
be /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d.
Files with a suffix of .conf will be read and added to the server
configuration after xorg.conf. The server won't fall back to using the
auto configuration unless there is no config file and there are no files
in the config directory.
Right now this uses a simpler search template than the config file
search path by not using the command line or environment variable
parameters. The matching code was refactored a bit to make this more
coherent. Any DDX wanting to read the config files will need to call
xf86initConfigFiles before opening/reading them. This is to allow
xf86openConfigFile without xf86openConfigDirFiles and vice-versa.

CorePointer, CoreKeyboard, and AlwaysCore should be listed as deprecated

Boolean option to enable/disable SIGIO handlers is set by the first
of these found:
- UseSIGIO option is set in xorg.conf ServerFlags
- Default set at build time by ./configure --enable-use-sigio-by-default
- Platform default value: Solaris = no, all others = yes
This matches the current settings on all platforms except Solaris.
This reverts Solaris (for now) to the settings used in Xorg 1.6, before
SIGIO support for Solaris was added, due to some system level bugs that
won't be resolved in time for Xorg 1.7 release, but allows us to enable
when those are resolved (or when we need to test if they're resolved).

This was a vestige from the days before we'd make the mode list from the
EDID data, and from CRT technology when you could reasonably assume that
higher refresh rates were better. Also it did not function as advertised,
acting as a high-pass filter instead of a band-pass.
Zapping is triggered by xkb these days, so note in the man page that it's the
Terminate_Server action. Since it's XKB, personal preferences towards or
against zapping should be achieved through xkb rulesets.
If Terminate_Server is not in the xkb actions, then we can't zap anyway and we
don't need a default of DontZap "on".
This patch restores the old meaning of DontZap - disallow zapping altogether,
regardless of XKB's current keymap.
Ideally, this patch should be accompanied by b0f64bdab00db652e in
