These hints allow an acceleration architecture to optimize allocation of certain
types of pixmaps, such as pixmaps that will serve as backing pixmaps for
redirected windows.
This was an attempt to avoid scratch gc creation and validation for paintwin
because that was expensive. This is not the case in current servers, and the
danger of failure to implement it correctly (as seen in all previous
implementations) is high enough to justify removing it. No performance
difference detected with x11perf -create -move -resize -circulate on Xvfb.
Leave the screen hooks for PaintWindow* in for now to avoid ABI change.
Composite's automatic redirection is a more general mechanism than the
ad-hoc BS machinery, so it's much prettier to implement the one in terms
of the other. Composite now wraps ChangeWindowAttributes and activates
automatic redirection for windows with backing store requested. The old
backing store infrastructure is completely gutted: ABI-visible structures
retain the function pointers, but they never get called, and all the
open-coded conditionals throughout the DIX layer to implement BS are gone.
Note that this is still not a strictly complete implementation of backing
store, since Composite will throw the bits away on unmap and therefore
WhenMapped and Always hints are equivalent.
CFLAGS is a user variable, extracted from the environment at configure time
and settable by the user at build time. We must not override this variable.
Get rid of almost all uses of these definitions. They're still defined for
delinquent out-of-tree drivers, and also for the Mesa build. As well as
for miinitext.c. But largely gone.
XFree86LOADER ifdefs, non-loadable hasn't been supported for a while
now. Remove completely gratuitious REMOVE_LOADER_CHECK_MODULE_INFO
ifdefs surrounding a call to a function added in XFree86 4.1 (!).
Miscellaneous static markings.
Dist helper shell scripts.
Dist XAA.HOWTO and a few more unused C files.
Dist xorgconf.cpp.
Fix DIST_EXTRA typo.
Clean yacc and lex generated files only during make maintainer-clean as we
don't expect users to have those tools installed.
Fix the dri and drm build. Fix server-side DMX extension build. Make
xf4bpp use the correct version of mfbline.c for mfbseg.c. Add #ifndef
_HEADERNAME_H_/#define _HEADERNAME_H_/.../#endif to the headers.
Add XSERV_t, TRANS_SERVER, TRANS_REOPEN to quash warnings.
Add #include <dix-config.h> or <xorg-config.h>, as appropriate, to all
source files in the xserver/xorg tree, predicated on defines of
HAVE_{DIX,XORG}_CONFIG_H. Change all Xfont includes to
<X11/fonts/foo.h>.
framebuffer formats except cfb and the overlay modes should work, and
r128 and radeon need to be loaded from the ati driver (both issues to
be fixed soon). Tested on i740, s3virge, mach64, tdfx, vesa, and vga
drivers. elfloader users shouldn't be affected.
