2010-09-16Make the modinfo string contain an optional subpatch numberThomas Hellstrom
The idea is that the build system assigns this number if needed. As an example it might be the commit number since the last version tag. Signed-off-by: Thomas Hellstrom <thellstrom@vmware.com>
2010-09-08vmwlegacy: Fix a segfault in vmwareCursorCloseScreen.Thomas Hellstrom
The segfault occured because the named function was using resources that were already taken down, because VMWARECloseScreen was called very late in the CloseScreen callchain. Make sure we wrap the CloseScreen pointers late in ScreenInit to avoid this. Signed-off-by: Thomas Hellstrom <thellstrom@vmware.com>

2009-06-01 An imperfect fix for Xinerama state changes without a mode changeMicah Dowty
This patch improves behaviour for Xinerama state changes (via the VMWARE_CTRL) extension that don't have an accompanying mode change. This will be the case if a new Xinerama monitor layout has a bounding box with an identical size to that of the previous layout. Prior to this patch, the behaviour was pretty bad. If you sent two Xinerama states with the same bounding box, the second state would be set as pending but no actual mode change would occur, because the X server would already be in the right video mode. This means that the pending mode stays pending. If another Xinerama state comes in after this, we would hit our "Aborting due to existing pending state" error, and the new state would be discarded. This means we'd drop the mode switch on the floor, plus we'd lie to the client and say it worked. One example of the user-visible symptoms from this: The user has four monitors of the same size. We'll call them A through D. The VM goes into full-screen mode, and they set it to use screens ABC. Now they switch to BCD. These have the same bounding box size, so no mode change occurs and a topology is still pending. Now they switch to monitors BC. This mode switch is dropped, so the guest is still in the ABC topology and the mode is too wide for BC. This patch is an incomplete fix. If we're setting a new topology with the same bounding box, we'll flush the Xinerama state immediately since we know the mode switch will never occur. This means we don't get stuck with xineramaNextState set when it shouldn't be, and we don't have the problem with dropping subsequent mode changes. We also do set the new Xinerama state, so apps that query it will see the updated state immediately. But the fix isn't perfect- as far as I can tell, there's no way to notify applications that the monitor layout changed without a mode switch. So even though we've set the new topology, most apps won't notice. There are ways we could hack around this, but none of them are pretty.
2009-05-22Fix black screen after resume from hibernate.Bob Long
The root cause for the black screen and system lock up is caused by not recovering the SVGA ID register after hibernation. Incorrect ID register value will invalidate the FIFO memory start register, and driver will not retrieve correct FIFO memory start address and the busy read of svga FIFO sync register will lock up the whole system. Currently SVGA Xorg driver does not have a kernel module to handle the power management event, but Xorg will call driver provided LeaveVT before shutting down system and call EnterVT after resuming system from hibernation, so these two callback functions are good entry points to save and restore the ID register value. This patch saves the ID register value in LeaveVT and restores the value to SVGA ID register in EnterVT.

2009-05-12Fix dynamic mode edge casesMicah Dowty
The VMware Xorg driver supports dynamic modelines that can be set from userspace via an X extension. These are used to implement VM features which need to automatically change the resolution of the guest OS. This driver implements the feature using two modelines. The driver would alternately update one mode then the other, so that in typical usage one mode is current and the other is available for the next mode switch. This usually worked, but there were many edge cases that could cause this alternating pattern to get 'out of sync', so we'd end up changing the resolution of the current video mode. This could end up putting the X server in a state where the screen resolution has been changed, but the hardware was never reprogrammed for the new resolution. This patch fixes the problem by explicitly searching for a dynamic mode that isn't currently in use. We no longer rely on the alternating pattern.
2009-04-16Automatically add modelines for the driver's built-in set of modes.Shelley Gong
The driver has had a built-in set of modes for a while, but there was nothing adding modelines to back them up, causing initial modes to be rejected at startup with certain Xorg versions. This change adds the actual modelines for sufficiently new versions of the server (>= 1.2), as the necessary calls were only introduced at that time.

2008-08-19Add RegionEqual function for older XFree86 versions.Bankim Bhavsar
Fixes bug : http://bugzilla.eng.vmware.com/show_bug.cgi?id=312853 When we added AUTOPAINT_COLORKEY capability to our VMware video driver, region functions were used to keep track of colorkey painting. REGION_EQUAL was one of them. Unfortunately REGION_EQUAL was not present in regionstr.h shipped with XFree86 version 4.3.0. This version is used by TurboLinux 10; causing X server to crash while playing videos. REGION_EQUAL was added in revision 1.8 of regionstr.h and available for xfree86 version 4.3.99 onwards. Reference: http://cvsweb.xfree86.org/cvsweb/xc/programs/Xserver/include/regionstr.h.diff?r1=1.7&r2=1.8 When I compiled the existing code(without my change), I see a warning was generated indicating REGION_EQUAL is not present. Too bad we missed it. This patch includes 1) Slightly modified version of miRegionEqual from miRegion.c 2) Some formating cleanup.

2008-01-23Xv extension for VMware's video driverBankim Bhavsar
This patch implements the Xv extension for VMware's X video driver. The Xv specification can be found here http://www.xfree86.org/current/DESIGN16.html I've written a trivial offscreen memory manager that allocates memory from the bottom part of the Video RAM and it can handle only 1 video-stream. Eventually we intend to support upto 32 video-streams (there is already support for multiple video streams in respective backends).

2007-02-08 Add a bunch of useful modes to the mode list.Philip Langdale
The X server prunes modes above the initial mode and the number of default modes varies with distro and server version. As it's easy to do, let's add a bunch of useful versions in the driver so that users don't have to mess with their config files as often.
2007-02-08Remove XAA 'acceleration'.Philip Langdale
We have a lot of stale code to 'accelerate' certain operations through XAA. However, in practice, this acceleration is completely unhelpful because whenever we encounter an unaccelerated action, we have to sync and flush the fifo which kills any performance gain. As such, the virtual hardware doesn't even advertise these acceleration capabilities anymore, so the code is completely unusued. In addition, XAA is on the way out, so there's no point leaving in dead code which will have to go in the fairly near future. The one operation we can meaningfully accelerate is a front-only fill and when we get around to implementing that, we'll use EXA instead.
2007-02-08Make resizing work once and for all.Philip Langdale
This change removes the limitation on resizing larger than the initial size and removes the need for pitch-locking bu resizing the screen pixmap. Now the only limit on the screen size is the maximum width/height reported by the virtual hardware which is configured on the host side.

in xorg.conf. This static configuration will always be used and any attempts to update it will be ignored. Note that all xinerama aware apps that I have seen will not sanity check the xinerama extents against the screen size, so if the screen doesn't properly enclose the xinerama extents, expect your apps to punish you accordingly.
