Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult d8e6511b1b xfree86: use calloc() instead of malloc()
Using calloc() instead of malloc() as preventive measure, so there
never can be any hidden bugs or leaks due uninitialized memory.

The extra cost of using this compiler intrinsic should be practically
impossible to measure - in many cases a good compiler can even deduce
if certain areas really don't need to be zero'd (because they're written
to right after allocation) and create more efficient machine code.

The code pathes in question are pretty cold anyways, so it's probably
not worth even thinking about potential extra runtime costs.

Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult b28285332e xfree86: parser: check for alloc failure and possible NULL pointers
Adding paranoid extra checks against allocation failure and NULL pointers.
Even though might not be actually hit in practise, it's still better to
be cautious, just in case. And reducing analyzer noise this way.

Matthieu Herrb fbc034e847 Fix a double-free on syntax error without a new line.
$ echo "#foo\nfoo" > custom_config $ X -config custom_config

will trigger the double free because the contents of xf86_lex_val.str
have been realloc()ed aready  when free is called in read.c:209.

This copies the lex token and adds all the necessary free() calls to
avoid leaking it

Hans De Goede b5dffbbac1 xfree86: Add ModulePath support for OutputClass config Sections
Allow OutputClass config snippets to modify the module-path.

Note that any specified ModulePaths will be pre-pended to the normal
ModulePath. The idea behind this is that any output hardware specific
modules should have preference over the normal modules.

One use-case for this is the nvidia binary driver, this allows a
config snippet like this:

Section "OutputClass"
    MatchDriver "nvidia"
    Modulepath "/usr/lib64/nvidia/modules"
EndSection

To get the nvidia glx specific glx module loaded, but only when the
nvidia kernel driver is loaded.

Together with the glvnd work done recently, this allows the nouveau
+ mesa and nvidia-binary userspace stacks to co-exist on the same
system without any ldconfig / xorg.conf tweaking and the xserver will
automatically do the right thing depending on which kernel driver
(nouveau or nvidia) is loaded.

StringToToken() and xf86getStringToken().

Thierry Reding a270bb18ba xfree86: Introduce OutputClass configuration
The OutputClass section provides a way to match output devices to a set
of given attributes and configure them. For now, only matching by kernel
driver name is supported. This can be used to determine what DDX module
to load for non-PCI output devices. DDX modules can ship an xorg.conf.d
snippet (e.g. in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d) that looks like this:

	Section "OutputClass"
	    Identifer "NVIDIA Tegra open-source driver"
	    MatchDriver "tegra"
	    Driver "opentegra"
	EndSection

This will cause any device that's driven by the kernel driver named
"tegra" to use the "opentegra" DDX module.

See the OUTPUTCLASS section in xorg.conf(5) for more details.
