* Defer to simpler hooks in more cases (inspired by XAA behaviour).
* Move damage tracking from lower to higher level functions.
* Always migrate for fallbacks.
* Convert rects to region and use it for damage tracking.
* When possible, defer to exaFillRegion{Solid,Tiled} using converted region.
* Always migrate for fallbacks.
* Move damage tracking out of ExaCheckPolyFillRect.
* Support planemasks, different ALUs and arbitrary tile origin.
* Leave damage tracking and non-trivial fallbacks to callers.
* Always migrate for fallbacks.
This is in preparation for using these from more other functions.
Additionally, protect libcw setup behind checks for Render, to avoid
segfaulting if Render isn't available (xnest).
The previous setup was an ABI-preserving dance, which is better nuked now.
Now, anything that needs libcw must explicitly initialize it, and
miDisableCompositeWrapper (previously only called by EXA and presumably binary
drivers) is gone.
This is a new behavior for version 2.1 of EXA, and only takes effect if the
driver has requested that. Otherwise, the previous behavior remains the same.
This has been what has been used the most successfully post-damagetrack.
The current thinking is that:
1) We should be able to accelerate basically everything. So we don't need to
try to migrate trees of pixmaps permanently out of framebuffer to speed
CPU drawing up.
2) Migration is cheaper in the thrashing case, so we don't want to go to a lot
of effort to try (and fail badly) to find a working set.
Mostly due to exaDrawableDirty() now calculating the backing pixmap coordinates
internally, for cases where they aren't trivially known. There's a new
exaPixmapDirty() function for the other cases.
Also, rename to exaTryMagicTwoPassCompositeHelper() as it is now called for
non-component-alpha masks also, and add function description from
http://anholt.livejournal.com/32058.html.
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.
which still happen somewhat frequently and were cluttering up my
fallback debugging output. x11perf says it's a major performance win in
those cases (though probably irrelevant), and it passes Xlib9.
through the whole CompositePicture stack and doing things like
computing damage over again. This is a sizeable win for text drawing
with a compmgr. Also avoid calling down into the server for dealing
with the scratch pixmap when we are able to do UploadToScreen
successfully and never need it.
down into an OutReverse and an Add. Turn off the fallback to software
glyphs when component alpha, now that we expect all (new) drivers to be
able to support it. Also, make Xephyr fall back in the CA Over case to
exercise this code. This speeds up my rgb24text and ls -lR in
gnome-terminal by a factor of 5.
and if they all have a maskFormat matching the format of the actual
glyphs If so, we can avoid the temporary pixmap for accumulating
glyphs, which reduces the number of operations done, and makes it
easier on the migration system. This fixes some significant performance
issues, particularly with subpixel antialiasing. Note that it does
increase the amount of damage computation which is done, so is not
always a win with a compositing manager running.
one behaves somewhat between Greedy and Always. It moves in if we can
accelerate, unless the destination is clean and shouldn't be kept in
framebuffer according to the score, in which case we migrate out (and
force-migrate anything where migration is free). This should help fix
lack of acceleration for drivers without UTS since removing
exaAsyncPixmapGCOps, and has removed one performance trap with Radeon
I'd noticed. It is the new default.
