Wen's patch:

+ const size_t width = ds_get_width(vd->ds) / 16;
[...]
-    bitmap_set(width_mask, 0, (ds_get_width(vd->ds) / 16));
-    bitmap_clear(width_mask, (ds_get_width(vd->ds) / 16),
-                 VNC_DIRTY_WORDS * BITS_PER_LONG);
+    bitmap_set(width_mask, 0, width);
+ bitmap_clear(width_mask, width, VNC_DIRTY_WORDS * BITS_PER_LONG - width);

Your patch:

bitmap_clear(width_mask, (ds_get_width(vd->ds) / 16),
- VNC_DIRTY_WORDS * BITS_PER_LONG);
+ (VNC_MAX_WIDTH - ds_get_width(vd->ds)) / 16);

Since ui/vnc.h has:

#define VNC_DIRTY_WORDS (VNC_MAX_WIDTH / (16 * BITS_PER_LONG))

the third parameter to bitmap_clear is the same value in
both cases, isn't it? Or is this a rounding bug?

-- PMM

Because of rounding effects, both values can be different.

The part missing in my patch is correct handling of another
rounding effect:

VNC_DIRTY_WORDS is exact for 32 bit long values (and the
"old" code which used uint32_t until some weeks ago), where
VNC_DIRTY_WORDS = 2560/16/32 = 5.

For 64 bit values, VNC_DIRTY_WORDS = 2560/16/64 = 2 (rounded)!

Is bitmap_clear() really needed here? Meanwhile I think it is not,
so this might be a new patch variant...
