+ Identical to the PresentPixmap request, except that instead of the
+ 'wait-fence' and 'idle-fence' arguments it accepts mandatory
+ 'acquire-syncobj' and 'release-syncobj' arguments, along with
+ corresponding acquire and release points, to be used for explicit
+ timeline-based GPU synchronization. The 'acquire-point' and
+ 'release-point' are assumed to correspond to timeline points on the
+ respective DRM syncobjs.
+
+ The contents of the Pixmap will not be accessed by the server until the
+ 'acquire-point' on the acquire timeline has been signaled by the
+ client. The fence need not be submitted at the time the
+ PresentPixmapSynced request is issued.
+
+ Once the 'release-point' on the release timeline has been signaled, the
+ client may assume that no further GPU or CPU access to the Pixmap by
+ the server will occur as part of the originating PresentPixmapSynced
+ request. Note that this is a stronger guarantee than what is provided
+ by the 'idle-fence' argument of the PresentPixmap request or the
+ delivery of a PresentIdleNotify event, as those do not necessarily
+ imply that the Pixmap is idle on the GPU.
+
+ The server may wait for the acquire point and signal the release point
+ itself, as will typically happen if the request is executed by copying
+ the Pixmap's contents. Alternatively, it may forward the timelines,
+ acquire, and release points to an output sink directly, provided that
+ sink also supports explicit synchronization using DRM syncobjs.
+
+ The server may signal the release point without waiting for the acquire
+ point if the Pixmap's contents are never accessed while servicing the
+ request. This may happen, for example, if a request is discarded due to
+ it being fully occluded by a later request.
+
+ Beware that, if multiple Pixmaps are presented using the same release
+ timeline, the server makes no guarantees on the order in which the
+ release points will be signaled. Of particular concern is that, if the
+ later of the two release points is signaled before the earlier one, it
+ may appear to the client as though the Pixmap with the earlier release
+ point has been released before the server has finished its access to
+ it. Therefore, in general, clients are strongly advised to avoid using
+ the same release timeline with different Pixmaps.
+
+ If the server does not support PresentCapabilitySyncobj, a Value error
+ is generated.
+
+ If either 'acquire-syncobj' or 'release-syncobj' are None or do not
+ refer to previously imported syncobjs, a Value error is generated.
+
+ If 'acquire-point' or 'release-point' is zero, a Value error is
+ generated.
+
+ If 'acquire-syncobj' is equal to 'release-syncobj' and 'acquire-point'
+ is greater than or equal to 'release-point', a Value error is
+ generated.
