Previously we leaked stack when invalid enum parameters were specified and caused __glGet*_size functions to return a 0 size. Further, we read out-of-bounds (and leaked) when the input data was less than 8 bytes (__glXDispSwap_GetFramebufferAttachmentParameteriv and __glXDisp_GetRenderbufferParameteriv). Now we only write a single element in the reply padding, and only when there is a single element. This is what the Mesa client-side libGL expects, and restores original GLX server behaviour, matching both pre-public (1996) SGI GLX and XFree86 4. The main risk of this change is if we have any error in element count or size; previously it may not have mattered but now it does. There are no piglit result changes from this modification using either mesa libGLX or NVIDIA libGLX. For performance considerations, an extra conditional and variable-length memcpy has no meaningful impact on the indirect rendering pipeline cost. There is still the possiblity to leak if our size checks allow an enum that the GL implemention does not. Guarding against that requires zero-initializing all temp storage, which wants re-evaluation of the blind 200-byte buffers used for many calls and thus is a much bigger change.

XLibre Xserver
Xlibre is a fork of the Xorg Xserver with lots of code cleanups and enhanced functionality.
This fork was necessary since toxic elements within Xorg projects, moles from BigTech, are boycotting any substantial work on Xorg, in order to destroy the project, to eliminate competition of their own products. Classic "embrace, extend, extinguish" tactics.
Right after journalists first began covering the planned fork Xlibre, on June 6th 2025, Redhat employees started a purge on the Xlibre founder's GitLab account on freedesktop.org: deleted the git repo, tickets, merge requests, etc, and so fired the shot that the whole world heard.
This is an independent project, not at all affiliated with BigTech or any of their subsidiaries or tax evasion tools, nor any political activists groups, state actors, etc. It's explicitly free of any "DEI" or similar discriminatory policies. Anybody who's treating others nicely is welcomed.
It doesn't matter which country you're coming from, your political views, your race, your sex, your age, your food menu, whether you wear boots or heels, whether you're furry or fairy, Conan or McKay, comic character, a small furry creature from Alpha Centauri, or just a boring average person. Anybody who's interested in bringing X forward is welcome.
Together we'll make X great again!
Upgrade notice
-
Module ABIs have changed - drivers MUST be recompiled against this Xserver version, otherwise the Xserver can crash or fail to start up correctly.
-
If your console is locked up (no input possible, not even VT switch), then most likely the input driver couldn't be loaded due to a version mismatch. When unsure, it's best to be prepared to ssh into your machine from another one or set a timer that's calling
chvt 1
after certain time, so you don't need a cold reboot. Or, make sure that you have magicSysRq
key enabled (Alt+PrtSc
) via sysctl (kernel.sysrq=1
), then press following combination depending on keyboard layout to make kernel regain control over keyboard to make VT switching work:- QWERTY/AZERTY keyboard layout:
SysRq + R
- Dvorak/Colemak keyboard layout:
SysRq + P
- QWERTY/AZERTY keyboard layout:
-
Proprietary Nvidia drivers might break: they still haven't managed to do even simple cleanups to catch up with Xorg master for about a year. All attempts to get into direct mail contact have failed. We're trying to work around this, but cannot give any guarantees. But you can make it work by adding
Option "IgnoreABI" "1"
line toServerFlags
section in Xorg config. -
Most Xorg drivers should run as-is (once recompiled!), with some exceptions. See
.gitlab-ci.yml
for the versions/branches built along with Xlibre.
Driver repositories
Since Redhat had deleted and banned all X11Libre repositories from freedesktop.org, the driver repositories are now moved to GitHub:
