Features
--------
The AMD Geode Linux Xorg driver implements Xorg XAA driver interface.
Through a hardware abstraction layer called Durango (GX) and Cimarron (LX),
the full accelerated functionality of the graphics processor is exposed to
the driver.

The AMD Geode Xorg driver implements:

 - Xv video overlay extension support 
 - Geode hardware color-space conversion 
 - V4L2 overlay functionality (Geode LX processor only)
 - Rotated graphical output
 - DDC support
 - DPMS support
 - Common X.org patch support both Geode LX and GX processors

event for GeodeLinux.

_____________________________________________________________________________
Change: 78909
_____________________________________________________________________________
Patches for $ 'cross' compile. Gentoo and Debian store 32bit libraries in
/lib32 and 64bit in /lib64. There are apparently two standards for this, but
I'm patching gcc to follow Gentoo/Debian multilib convention. This is still
giving a build failure in libstdc++-v3, however, pulling in multilib
libraries.

project name to build name. If AMD_DRIVER_VERSION is defined, prefix project
name with amd_, otherwise oe_ Add task kwinstall for installing report files.
Add .bb files for X11R7.0 75DPI fonts. Add font-bh-75dpi to task-xorg Add xf86-video-
vga to task-org as a fallback. Add xauth to validation-image Update default
xorg.conf. z4l has been renamed to ztv. Add Eye of Gnome image viewer to validation-
image. This depends upon *alot* of gnome, so it should be replaced or gnome
should take over matchbox as session manager.

_____________________________________________________________________________
Change: 80378
_____________________________________________________________________________
Mesa compiles using the correct compiler. Remove redundant files from glib-
2.0 packaging. More DEPENDS and site-packages.conf cleanup. Disable exclusive
bsub for now. gcov-tools listed twice in validation-image.

Change: 80372
_____________________________________________________________________________
syslinux was moved upstream. Add to site-packages.conf.

_____________________________________________________________________________
Change: 80359
_____________________________________________________________________________
Add matchbox and xterm to validation-image. Replaces xfce. Add ica-bin-9.0,
but this is broken until openmotif builds.

AMD Geode(TM) LX processor Xorg.conf Specification
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Linux Xorg AMD GeodeLX Processor Configuration Specification


The AMD Geode driver supports an accelerated interface to the
hardware access layer for the graphical devices (cimarron library).
To operate this API with a widely, a set of operational customizations
were added to the xorg.conf configuration file.  These specifications
for the most part are passed unmodified to cimarron.  This document
only provides an overview of the customizations to the standard
configuration file definitions.

The xorg configuration (xorg.conf) file usually exists in the system
configuration directory /etc/X11.  The standard contents are documented
in the manual pages, and can typically be accessed using:
man XF86Config
The file is divided into "sections".  The following information
illustrates the custom features added section by section.


1. Device section:

The devices section specifies the graphics driver selection.  Currently,
for the drivers that may be specified include:
Section "Device"
        Identifier  "DevId"
        Driver      "vesa"   - or
        Driver      "fbdev"  - or
        Driver      "amd"
...
EndSection

The "vesa" and "fbdev" selections are documented by the manual pages
man fbdev   - or
man vesa
The "amd" driver has many selections that can be used to operate
the interface configuration.  These selections follow:


2. Hardware Accelerations:

This set of options are standard to the xorg "xaa" accelerations.
The presents of the option disables the named functionality.
Note that many accelerations depend on combinations with others,
and so disabling one may have a more pervasive effect.

        Option "XaaNoCPUToScreenColorExpandFill"
        Option "XaaNoColor8x8PatternFillRect"
        Option "XaaNoColor8x8PatternFillTrap"
        Option "XaaNoDashedBresenhamLine"
        Option "XaaNoDashedTwoPointLine"
        Option "XaaNoImageWriteRect"
        Option "XaaNoMono8x8PatternFillRect"
        Option "XaaNoMono8x8PatternFillTrap"
        Option "XaaNoOffscreenPixmaps"
        Option "XaaNoPixmapCache"
        Option "XaaNoScanlineCPUToScreenColorExpandFill"
        Option "XaaNoScanlineImageWriteRect"
        Option "XaaNoScreenToScreenColorExpandFill"
        Option "XaaNoScreenToScreenCopy"
        Option "XaaNoSolidBresenhamLine"
        Option "XaaNoSolidFillRect"
        Option "XaaNoSolidFillTrap"
        Option "XaaNoSolidHorVertLine"
        Option "XaaNoSolidTwoPointLine"

Certain hardware accelerations may be armed or disarmed by using:

        Option "HWcursor"    (default)  -or
        Option "SWcursor" 

        Option "Compression" (default)  -or
        Option "No Compression"


Additionally, all accelerations may be armed or disarmed using:

        Option "Accel"       (default) -or
        Option "No Accel"

This option enables/disables all rendering accelerations, HW/SW cursor,
and display compression.  Certain accelerations may not be armed, even
though they are inferred by the configuration, if video memory is in
short supply.


3. Modes section:

The configuration file included with the driver delivery contains an
optional "modes" section.  This section asserts all of the standard
graphics/video mode configuration data.  This set of modes is a subset
of the mode data in the cimarron library.  Because these modes are
included, they are passed to the cimarron driver for validation.  Be
aware that cimarron will select modes using a filtering function that
uses a constrained distance search.  The mode in cimarron's definitions
that is "closest" to a mode defined - either builtin or user supplied -
will normally be used by cimarron.  

This filtering effect can be factored out by specifying:

       Option "CustomMode"

This has the effect of causing the mode validation to pass any mode
in the mode pool, and allowing the selection of the specified mode
during mode switch.  Unfortunately, because the interface specification
is not complete enough to support video modes.  Only video modes that
exist in cimarron are possible when selecting a TVOUT mode.


4. More "Device" section Options:

Since flat panels have fixed timing - that is, only one "real" mode -
the mode switch operation that normally might select a wide variety
of operational states must "adjust" the mode selection to fit the
fixed panel timing.  To communicate that the mode selection is for
a flat panel, use:
       Option "FlatPanel"
Note that the code expects that the flat panel will have been already
selected by the BIOS setup.  Conflicts produce configuration errors.
The size adjustment usually involves scaling the source buffer
dimensions to the raster image size supported by the flat-panel.  The
hardware supports this scaling operation transparently, and normally
no special considerations are needed.  The hardware scaling is limited
to modes with horizontal aspects of less than 1024 pixels (buffer size
limitation for scaling/filtering).

The display may be "rotated" in three ways, ClockWise, Upside-Down and
CounterClocwise using:
       Option "Rotate" "CW"
       Option "Rotate" "Invert"
       Option "Rotate" "CCW"  
This is accomplished using a "shadow" frame buffer, and using either
a hardware or software operation to transform the image to the
operational display buffer.

Even though there is not strategic advantage, if you wish to use a
shadow frame buffer and display the unrotated image - this is specified
by using:

       Option "ShadowFB" 


5. TVOUT video modes.

In order to enable TVOUT mode selection, a TV known encoder
must be selected in the following way:
       Option "TV_Encoder" "ADV7171"   -or
       Option "TV_Encoder" "SAA7127"   -or
       Option "TV_Encoder" "FS454"     -or
       Option "TV_Encoder" "ADV7300"
There is no default for the encoder.  This selection is mandatory
to enable TVOUT modes.

Most encoders support a variety of bus formats.  Similarly, the
amd driver can select the bus data format from the following list:
       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "disabled"       - VOP output is disabled
       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "vip1_1"         - VIP 1.1
       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "ccir656"        - CCIR 656 output
       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "vip20_8bit"     - 8-bit VIP 2.0 output
       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "vip20_16bit"    - 16-bit VIP 2.0 output
       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "601_yuv_8bit"   - 601 output, 8-bit YUV 4:2:2
       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "601_yuv_16bit"  - 601 output, 16-bit YUV 4:2:2
       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "601_rgb_8_8_8"  - 601 output, 24-bit RGB
       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "601_yuv_4_4_4"  - 601 output, YUV 4:4:4
Note that the "601" modes may need sync signals for correct operation.
See the 601 flags below to operate these selections.

Colorspace conversion requires a projective transformation to
perform downsampling for the implied transformation.  The sampling
method may be specified by selecting from:
       Option "TV_Conversion" "cosited"
       Option "TV_Conversion" "interspersed"
       Option "TV_Conversion" "alternating"

The TV standard selected normally specifies a known frame buffer/
TV mode geometry.  However, it is quite common that TV output
devices may expect a blanked  "overscan" area.  The dx,dy marginal
widths for the overscan area can be specified using:
        Option          "TV_Overscan" "40:30"
Note that the TV standard geometry will be scaled (and filtered) to
downscale the source buffer to destination raster image.

TVOUT operation may be conditioned with the following set of flags.
Some of these flags are not especially usable except to the kernel,
but are included for completeness.

These "TV_Flags" identifiers are specified in a quoted comma
separated list from the following identifier set: 
 singlechipcompat - Enables SCx2xx compatibility mode..
 extendedsav      - Enables extended SAV/EAV codes.
 vbi              - Use the task bit to indicate VBI data.
 task             - Set Task Bit to 1in VIP 2.0 mode. Default is 0.
 swap_uv          - Swap the U and V data prior to output.
 swap_vbi         - Swap the VBI bytes prior to output.
for example:
       Option "TV_Flags" "swap_uv"  -or
       Option "TV_Flags" "extendedsav:swap_uv"

These "TV_601_Flags" identifiers are specified in a quoted comma
separated list from the following identifier set: 
 inv_de_pol       - Invert the polarity of display enable
 inv_hs_pol       - Invert the polarity of hsync
 inv_vs_pol       - Invert the polarity of vsync
 vsync-4          - The VSync occurs 4 clocks earlier
 vsync-2          - The VSync occurs 2 clocks earlier
 vsync+0          - The VSync is not shifted at all
 vsync+2          - The Vsync occurs 2 clocks later
for example:
       Option "TV_601_Flags" "inv_vs_pol"

These "TV_Vsync_Select" identifiers are specified in a quoted comma
separated list from the following identifier set: 
 disabled         - VSync out disabled
 vg               - The VSync signal from the VG (video generator)
 vg_inv           - The VSync signal from the VG (inverted)
 statreg17        - 1 written to VIP status bit 17 toggles vsync (0-1-0)
 statreg17_inv    - 1 written to VIP status bit 17 toggles vsync (1-0-1)
for example:
       Option "TV_Vsync_Select" "disabled"


6. Screen section:

The screen section selects among the other various sections for
sets of operational parameters and constraints.  A typical
"Screen" section has the form:

Section "Screen"
    Identifier  "ScreenId"
    Device      "Geode"
    Monitor     "MonitorId"
    DefaultDepth 24

    SubSection "Display"
        Depth           24
        FbBpp           32
        Modes          "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" "tv-ntsc" "tv-pal"
    EndSubsection
...

EndSection

In this example, the "Modes" selection of the display subsection specifies a
list of available modes.  These modes are selectable using "Ctl-Alt-KpPlus" or
"Ctl-Alt-KpMinus" on most PC keyboards.  It is also possible to select a mode
using the xrandr utility, as well as using the X library API.

The DefaultDepth may be 24, 16 or 8.  If the depth is 24, then the "FbBpp" line
is needed to specify the frame buffer format as 32 bits (hardware limitation).
If a custom mode is specified, care should be taken to be sure it does not
collide with a "builtin" mode, since the builtin mode will supersede.

For a more complete functional description, review that the cimarron
reference and Geode LX processor functional specifications.

First stab at dvb-image. Everything compiles, but I am worried about DRI
support in X, missing geode support in X, openGL support in qt-x11-free.
Also, directFB may be a better direction; it is currently disabled in this
mythtv build.

Syncronize travis, sands, gcov, and simnow busybox configurations. Remove
grep and tar from travis-db1200-2.6 and validation-image images. These are
provided by busybox. Move IMAGE_ROOTFS_SIZE to the meta .bb files as this is
psp specific and not necessarily distro specific.

_____________________________________________________________________________
Adding samba machine configuration file. The difference right now, from
existing norwich.conf is that this samba configures an X11R7 build. xserver-xorg-X11R7.0-
1.0.1 builds with this changelist but has not been tested. Additionally, the
AMD driver checked into Perforce has not yet been built here.

Version: 03.00.0101, Release Notes
Release Date: December 19, 2005

Dependencies 
------------
- Built with xorg-x11-6.7.0 from Fedora Core 2 Source Updates
- Built with X11R6.8.1 from freedesktop.org
                                                                                
- This driver has been tested with Linux Kernel 2.6.11
    using the Fedora Core 2 image environment
    using the Gentoo 2005.0 image environment

- To use the Xv adaptor interface
   1) create a "videox" link to the geodev4l2 video device in /dev
      ln -s video0 /dev/videox
   2) uncomment the '  Load "z4l"' line in xorg.conf

Functional Changes
------------------
Issue #4027

Defects Corrected 
-----------------
PBZ#6538 - X.org patch is incompletely licensed
PBZ#4027 - HWCursor/Rotation, cursor does not traverse entire resolution area
Description:
When using HWCursor, cursor can not traverse the entire visable area of *MOST* 
(there are exceptions) rotated modes.  The failures exist as edges which the 
cursor can not travel to.  Failing edges differ according to rotation.
Resolution:
Cursor "hotspot" error corrected.

PBZ#4463 - 8 bpp, x11perf SWCRC --> HWCRC comparison fails paint8_03 ...
PBZ#4665 - LX Xorg Driver will not patch successfully if GX Xorg Pat...
PBZ#5025 - mode changes with xrandr, graphics distorted

Known Errata 
------------
PBZ#4025 X - Rotations{90,270}, only lowest refresh rate pass mode validation
Description: 
At 90 and 270 degree rotations, only the lowest supported refresh
rate can be entered.  The rest of the refresh rates appear to fail mode 
validation (xrandr does not see them as options, and I can not CTL->ALT->+/- 
through the modes).  This issue does not occur at 0 or 180 degree rotations.  
Resolution: 
This is an inherent weakness of the X mode switch -- where even a 
full X R&R implementation would not fix this.
Steps to address will need to be:
(1) convert AMD rotation support to X R&R
(2) patch X to better handle X R&R
This may be addressed in a future version.

PBZ#5993 - HWScaling mode hsync out of range error
