2011-12-26Geode 2.11.13xf86-video-geode-2.11.13Martin-Éric Racine
This release mainly features a complete overhaul of the building scripts plus a cleanup of deprecated macros. The key benefit is that this Geode driver can finally build on FreeBSD and on other platforms not offering V4L2 support and that it can also build on a 64-bit host using its 32-bit personality. Support for the Video Input Port (VIP) feature of the Geode LX found in 'ztv' is now documented and the source code saw the removal of deprecated Linux 2.4 backward compatibility code. Compiling is skipped on platforms without V4L2. Configuration for laptops featuring WXGA resolutions is finally documented. Setting the GEODE_TRACE_FALL macro now enables composite operation tracing on this driver. This can be used to profile the performance during development. Fixes to keep this driver compilable on recent X servers are also included. VALIDATION PLATFORMS * Debian/stable (X server 1.7.7) on Artec DBE61 and Hercules EC-800. * Ubuntu/Precise (X server 1.10.4) on FIC ION603A.

2011-12-12DCONDPMSSet: handle error return code on "write" to avoid a warningGaetan Nadon
The author of the write() system call has deemed important for the caller to check the return code. If not, the compiler issues a warning. The patch handles a bad return code from write() just in the same way as the code does for the open() calls. Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>

2011-11-29README: do not suggest compiling with xserver older than 1.3Gaetan Nadon
This was done at one point in time by some drivers (3 that I remember) but the workarounds all have been removed since. The tarballs created by those drivers picked-up whatever code happened to be on the developer disk and was not in git. The code was not maintained and in fact did not work thereafter. http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-intel/commit/configure.ac ?id=84f69081abaeef8b05cafb64d3102eb2abdf9a8e Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>

2011-11-21Remove unrequired large file descriptor partial supportGaetan Nadon
The LFS "transitional extension" API is deprecated and is not available on FreeBSD. Large file support (64 bit) is not required on the geode 32 bit only architecture. There are some hints that the LFS transional extension API were not used correclty. The variable holding the value is held in an unsigned long rather than in off_t. The msr open call did not use the O_LARGEFILE flag and did not check for EOVERFLOW. Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>

These changes have been done in all other video drivers. Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>
2011-11-21config: The compiler version to use is now set in XORG_DEFAULT_OPTIONSGaetan Nadon
In this case "now" means a couple of years ago. All of Xorg is compiled with AC_PROG_CC_C99. It shows up in config.log as CC='gcc -std=gnu99'. The removed statement was resetting the compiler to C89 as it comes after XORG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS. Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>
2011-11-21config: remove a few dead/obsolete lines of codeGaetan Nadon
HAVE_XEXTPROTO_71 not used in Makefile. AC_HEADER_STD is very obsolete. AC_SUBST([XORG_CFLAGS]) is redundant. DRIVER_NAME is correctly no longer used. AC_SUBST([moduledir]) has just been moved up. Any erroneously removed statements above would result in a configuration failure. Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>
2011-11-21Move back ztv with geode driverGaetan Nadon
Now we have a clean separation between CPP flags and C Flags Only the C Flags apply to both geode and ztv driver, however it is not worth doing a per target compilation. Should some flags become mutually exclusive and if we want to have both target in the same makefile, add the incompatible flag on the appropriate target, example: geode_drv_la_CFLAGS = $(AM_CFLAGS) -newCFlag and/or geode_drv_la_CPPFLAGS = $(AM_CPPFLAGS) -newCPPFlag Note that both AM_CFLAGS and AM_CPPFLAGS are picked-up by both geode and ztv driver target.

2011-11-21Separate compiler from pre-processor optionsGaetan Nadon
Clean-up what goes in AM_CFLAGS and AM_CPPFLAGS Use more descriptive names such that comments are not needed. Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>
2011-11-21Detect 32bit support on 64bit OS and compile with -m32 if foundGaetan Nadon
For gcc compiler only at the moment. The configuration reports if support is found or not, e.g.: checking if gcc supports the -m32 Intel/AMD option... yes The configuration C test relies on #include unistd.h which includes features.h which includes gnu/stubs.h which includes gnu/stubs-32.h which is missing on 64 bit system without the 32 bit library support. Tested on x86_64 AMD64 CPU with/without libc6-dev-i386 which provides 32 bit support. Remains to be tested on Geode and FreeBSD 32/64 bit. The configuration does not attempt to decide if building should proceed or be aborted. If no 32 bit support then the build will die in the assembly code as it always did before. The variable M32_CFLAGS provides the flag for the makefiles. The variable names and organization is subject to change. Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>

2011-11-21Remove unused and misleading I386ARCH configuration codeGaetan Nadon
The AM_CONDITIONAL I386ARCH is not used. The AC_CHECK_DECLS is misleading as it suggests there could be some i*86 system with a 64 bit architecture which is incorrect. It also provides false results on 64 bit computer. The generated HAVE_DECL_XXX are not used anyway. Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>
2011-11-21Remove -DPNL_SUP for the ztv driverGaetan Nadon
Only the gx driver provide such a panel. Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>
2011-11-21Remove duplicate warning variable and werror optionGaetan Nadon
Use already existing: --enable-strict-compilation Enable all warnings from compiler and make them errors (default: disabled) which, byt the way was broken as it was not implemented in geode. Use already existing CWARNINGFLAGS variable, so there is no need to define GCC_WARNINGS. Both come from util-macros version 1.4 or later. http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/util/macros/tree/xorg-macros.m4.in ?id=03b04a6b5d61aafbd2705f7d29e58e0c92553a4a If you configure with a later version of util-macros you may see new warnings appear as additional flags have been added over the years. You get better support for platforms/compiler differences. Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>
2011-11-21Remove unrequired .s assembly files automake supportGaetan Nadon
Only the suffixes .s, .S, and .sx are recognized by automake as being files containing assembly code. http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Assembly-Support Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>
2011-11-21Remove ztv LINUX_2_6 switch and dead codeGaetan Nadon
The makefile defines LINUX_2_6 so the "else" code is dead. The port from kernel 2.4 is complete. Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>
2011-11-21Remove broken duplicate visibility configure optionGaetan Nadon
This was added by commit f762b456 in 2007 and has been since implemented in the server which returns it in XORG_CFLAGS pkg-config --cflags xorg-server The server also takes care of platforms and compilers being used. Currently the visibility is set twice and even if you disable it, it is still passed through XORG_CFLAGS. Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>
2011-11-21Remove unused LINUX_2_6 macro from geode driver makefileGaetan Nadon
It is used in ztv but not geode driver. In the wake of more platforms other than linux, might as well remove any source of confusion. Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>
2011-11-21Remove HAVE__GX HAVE_LX and OPT_ACCEL from ztv buildGaetan Nadon

2011-11-21Remove no longer used AMD_V4L2_VIDEO from makefilesGaetan Nadon
This macro has been removed every where from source code. Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>
2011-11-21Add a configure option to enable/disable building the ztv driverGaetan Nadon
Even when V4L2 is available there are always reasons why distros may not want to build the driver. This patch uses a common idiom in xorg. When no configure option is specified ztv is built iff v4l2 is detected (auto). When user issues --disable-ztv, the ztv driver is not built (no) When user issues --enable-ztv, the ztv driver is built (yes) if v4l2 is detected but the configuration fails if v4l2 is missing. Distros do not want silent failures when a feature is explicitly requested but cannot be built. Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>
2011-11-21Add conditional build for ztvGaetan Nadon
Detect the presence of Video4Linux V2 and do not build if missing. The geode driver is no longer Linux only. Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>
2011-11-21Move ztv driver to it's own directoryGaetan Nadon
The convention is to have the video driver (geode) in the src subdir and any other targets (utils, apps, other drivers) in their own directory. It makes it much simpler to right a correct makefile and to set conditional compile. This highlighted a few things to fix. For now, the directory includes have not been copied as they are required. The AM_CCASFLAGS is not required either as there is no assembler. Other than that, the gcc command issued has no differences. Other unrequired defines could be removed later.
