OpenML supplanted them with glXWaitForMscOML and glXSwapBuffersMscOML. The newer interfaces are a superset of the old, and we should look to implementing them as such. > So, what to do?

No. Core GL doesn't even know about windows or screens. GLX knows about displays and drawables, and that's it. > And no matter the outcome, we should encourage people to use interfaces > like DRM_I915_VBLANK_SWAP rather than glXWaitVideoSyncSGI, otherwise > they'll be highly susceptible to unpredictable scheduling hiccups. Right. Something like DRM_I915_VBLANK_SWAP should be used to implement either glXSwapIntervalSGI or glXSwapBuffersMscOML. To be honest, I'm not sure what real-world use an application could have for the glXWait interfaces. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFG8VpBX1gOwKyEAw8RAmmfAJ0eq1B1CEkp/ofo86kvGBgIK5MptwCffpHA vaBiGHXYPuh9wi0MS+Zttk0= =U+Cb -END PGP SIGNATURE- - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Well I'm not sure you screwed it up, before we had randr1.2 enabled drivers that scheme made a lot of sense. :) > > The vblank-rework branch of the DRM tree tries to address (1) and > > (2) by splitting the logic for handling CRTCs and their associated > > vblank interrupts into discrete paths, but this defeats the > > original purpose of the driver interrupt code that tries to fall > > back to a single counter, which is due to limitations in (5), > > namely that the glX*VideoSyncSGI APIs can only handle a single > > pipe. > > Right, it would be nice if we could preserve the above with > vblank-rework. > > Or, I guess another option would be to stop caring about old Mesa > drivers that don't know about secondary vblank and to just make sure > things work as well as possible when vblank interrupts are enabled > for both pipes.

Yeah, common code would be best. So: - use the vblank-rework tree to make per-CRTC vblank counters (as you say, this breaks some setups but will fix others) - add code to Mesa so GetMSC/WaitForMSC set DRM_VBLANK_SECONDARY correctly That should make the current stack work fairly well. And when there's a real need, we can look at adding multipipe aware extensions. I can finish up the Intel bits, but the vblank-rework tree still needs mach64, mga, r128 and via updated. And the Mesa parts of those drivers need updating to handle multiple pipes. Anyone have time to tackle those? Thanks, Jesse - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Yes, I made it that way to allow old Mesa drivers that don't know anything about secondary vblank to work. The trouble is that at least xf86-video-intel currently never enables vblank interrupts for pipe B only, which defeats that purpose. It's really too bad I screwed up trying to make all this backwards compatible, so I'm afraid it looks like we have to bite the bullet and make incompatible changes again to hopefully make things right finally. > The vblank-rework branch of the DRM tree tries to address (1) and (2) by > splitting the logic for handling CRTCs and their associated vblank > interrupts into discrete paths, but this defeats the original purpose > of the driver interrupt code that tries to fall back to a single > counter, which is due to limitations in (5), namely that the > glX*VideoSyncSGI APIs can only handle a single pipe. Right, it would be nice if we could preserve the above with vblank-rework. Or, I guess another option would be to stop caring about old Mesa drivers that don't know about secondary vblank and to just make sure things work as well as possible when vblank interrupts are enabled for both pipes. But note that 'old drivers' currently includes i965 and all Radeon drivers. > One way of making the glX*VideoSyncSGI interfaces behave more or less > as expected would be to make them more like DRM_I915_VBLANK_SWAP > internally, i.e. using SAREA values to determine which pipe needs to > be sync'd against by passing in the display plane the client is most > tied to (this would imply making the Intel specific SAREA plane info > more generic), Not necessarily - the driver could provide its own versions of the GetMSC and WaitForMSC hooks, or we could make the generic ones use a new driver hook to determine whether to use secondary vblank. > letting the DRM take care of the rest. Yes, this has been my idea, but I haven't got around to actually playing with it. > And no matter the outcome, we should encourage people to use interfaces > like DRM_I915_VBLANK_SWAP rather than glXWaitVideoSyncSGI, otherwise > they'll be highly susceptible to unpredictable scheduling hiccups. Right, i.e. right now use GLX_SGI_swap_control instead of GLX_SGI_video_sync whenever possible. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://tungstengraphics.com Libre software enthusiast | Debian, X and DRI developer - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

XDS: Intel i965 docs
Just FYI, one of the things that came up at xds is that Intel is now making a scrubbed version of the i965 docs available under NDA. Dave Airlie has been working with them at redhat, for instance.
