Server GPUs often have a VNC feature attached to allow remote console. The controller implementing this feature is usually not very powerful, and we can easily swamp it with work. This is made somewhat worse by damage over-reporting the size of the dirty region, and a whole lot worse by applications (or shells) that update the screen with identical pixel content as was already there. Fix this by double-buffering the shadow fb, using memcmp to identify dirty tiles on each update pass. Since both shadows are in host memory the memcmp is cheap, and worth it given the win in network bandwidth. The tile size is somewhat arbitrarily chosen to be one cacheline wide at 32bpp on Intel Core. By default we enable this behaviour for (a subset of) known server GPUs; the heuristic could use work.

X Server The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows, which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program can draw into. Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server (or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager, which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons and draggable titlebars and borders. For a comprehensive overview of X Server and X Window System, consult the following article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_server All questions regarding this software should be directed at the Xorg mailing list: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Please submit bug reports to the Xorg bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=xorg The master development code repository can be found at: git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/xserver http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver For patch submission instructions, see: http://www.x.org/wiki/Development/Documentation/SubmittingPatches For more information on the git code manager, see: http://wiki.x.org/wiki/GitPage
