I'm sorry for not having replied sooner, I've been really swamped
these days. I'll only be able to work on this after June 17th,
unfortunately. That is, if ConsoleKit is still relevant by then...

Yes, it looks like ConsoleKit is going away. I believe ConsoleKit
integration wouldn't be a bad thing even if CK is going away, as it
seems that the systemd replacement will be backwards compatible. Also,
I don't see Ubuntu switching to systemd any time soon.

So, to wrap it up, by the second half of June I'll probably have time
to work on this if CK support is still relevant by then. Thanks a lot
for the review, Dan, I'll address all those issues.

Please keep Cc'ing me as I'm not in the list anymore.

[PATCH] xf86xvmc: Once hooked into CloseScreen, defer the free after init errors

2011-05-15 Thread Chris Wilson
After hooking ourselves into the CloseScreen callback, we will attempt
to double-free pAdapt if we free it upon a failure to initialise the
XvMC adaptor and then during CloseScreen. Rather than rearrange the code
to only hook ourselves into CloseScreen, or to disentangle the callback
along a failure path, just defer the free until the end.

Agreed.   After the initial annoyance over more API churn, that does seem
to be what's falling out of this recent announcement.   As long as the
ConsoleKit support stays optional, I think having it would still be better
than not having it, given the issues some distros have hit without it.

End of June is fine - I'm slowly working towards some changes I've wanted
to get in for a while to the config file layout, and then given all that's
changed in the tree, will probably call the next release 1.2.0, and adding
ConsoleKit support would fit nicely in there, but I've also got a ton of
day job things to do before then too.

xcb_io.c seems to use tabs for indenting, your code uses spaces. might want
to check that up first.

maybe it's better to use a macro for the "broken X extension library" error
as well instead of copy/paste.

that said, still

Hi all,

I'm Working on an iMX.25 (ARM) based embedded platform with

I had to make the following mods to servermd.h to reflect the hardware.

#define FBNOPIXADDR
#define IMAGE_BYTE_ORDERMSBFirst
#define BITMAP_BIT_ORDERMSBFirst

This setup works with xlogo and oclock (The image looks correct). However
when running xclock and a 3rd party gtk based app, the BIT/BYTE_ORDER is
incorrect.

Are there instances where these defines are ignored? Any ideas on where I
should start looking?


Ok figured it out. It stems from the fact that the CPU endianness (arm 
being LITTLE endian) doesn't match the endianness of the LCD peripheral 
(big). So even though I configured the FB, pixman was setting the 
endianness via the configure script. Which brings me to my next 
question, shouldn't pixman, xserver (and anything else that I may not 
have encountered yet) have this setting configured in a single place?

Note that "clients" refers to X clients, i.e. applications. While it's
usually trivial to add new functionality to evdev or other drivers, exposing
information to the actual client requires some protocol extension or
additions to existing extensions. While we have mechanisms in place for
devices to be labelled, we don't have anyone to actually read this
information (or even some standard on how to apply the labels).

>From the implementation-side, we not only need to flag the devices in the
driver (like you've outlined in the patch below), we then need to get this
information into the X server so that the server doesn't repeat. XKB has a
per-key-repeat flag which we may be able to use but we need to also override
client-side key repeat setting (for this device only). XKB doesn't allow for
a repeat rate change request to fail, so we have to essentially tell client
they have succeeded in setting their repeat rate while using a completely
different one.
Technically, you can override the repeat setting requested by the client
if you simply send out an event when you change it back to the hardware
setting. This then looks like some other client has changed it but the
danger is that it may send stubborn clients into an infinite loop.

How much that really matters I don't know.

Letting clients know which device is an RC control at least means that the
overriding should be expected, but that brings us back to the labelling
issue.

But either way, to even get this to the "override" stage you need three
patches:
- evdev: recognise and flag the devices
- X server: introduce an API to pass this information on to the server
- X server: fixes to the XKB system to disable autorepeat for devices
  flagged accordingly and override requests to change the repeat rate.

Cheers,
  Peter

Anyway, just would like to find out, how much effort it would take to
add support for devices with 1/2 bits/pixel depth. I noticed that the
current xorg-fbdev implementation doesn't support these depths.

Just to add context to the question, I'm working on an embedded device
with a monochrome LCD. The CPU can generate grayscale images by upping
the frame-rate and modulating the pixels but the hardware implementation
limits the max FR so I can only support about 2 bits per pixel depth.


Would it be sufficient to use an 8bpp greyscale framebuffer and simply
ignore the low-order bits on scanout?


Thanks for you reply Jonathan.

Maybe I'm a bit out of my depth (hehe) here, could you elaborate on this
please? The CPU (iMX.25) LCD peripheral (LCDC module) uses a chunk of
memory to scan out and the bit depth is determined by the video mode
used. My understanding is, the X FB drv writes directly to this chunk of
memory (please correct me if I'm wrong). What step are you referring to
as scanout?



Just curious. Why is it that whenever I ask for things to be elaborated, 
the thread hits dead end? Am I posting to the wrong list?
