Bug#648222: Significant 2D performance regression with ColorTiling

2012-02-20 Thread Tobias Diedrich
Wow, I can only second this. I've been wondering what part of the last upgrade made my desktop so glacially slow and finally found that flipping the ColorTiling option to false makes a big difference. Everything feels at least an order of magnitude faster now. With ColorTiling enabled I had

Hi Tormod, Tormod Volden wrote: [Subject: Only print current status in usage() if we are root] Sorry to take so long to get to this. Here's a series that covers two topics. Patches 4 and 5/5 are intended to be in the same spirit and mostly cover the same ground as your patches concerning

[PATCH 1/6] avivotool: make card detection and mapping errors non-fatal

2012-02-20 Thread Jonathan Nieder
After radeontool-1.6.0~28 (add more ram dumping stuff) avivotool tries to detect a Radeon unconditionally, even for the romtables subcommand that doesn't require one. To keep avivotool useful when there is an error detecting a card, the patch changed the fatal error codepath to keep going rather

[PATCH 2/6] avivotool, radeonreg: make fatal errors exit

2012-02-20 Thread Jonathan Nieder
It's safer not to continue once in an erroneous situation. This reverses a change made in radeontool-1.6.0~28 (add more ram dumping stuff) and makes the behavior of avivotool match radeontool again. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder jrnie...@gmail.com --- avivotool.c |2 +- radeonreg.c |2

[PATCH 3/6] avivotool: error out unless there is exactly one control and fb region

2012-02-20 Thread Jonathan Nieder
Just like radeontool, avivotool should not blindly fall back to region 0 when the expected memory areas cannot be found. Noticed by code inspection. (Compare commits 51a87cf0 and 7e3e9808.) Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder jrnie...@gmail.com --- avivotool.c | 29 ++---

[PATCH 4/6] switch to modern pci_device_map_range API

2012-02-20 Thread Jonathan Nieder
Ever since it was introduced in libpciaccess 0.10.0 four years ago, pci_device_map_range has been the preferred way to map a PCI region and pci_device_map_region has been a deprecated backward-compatibility shim. Switch over. No functional change intended. Noticed by gcc

[PATCH 5/6] include errno string in more messages

2012-02-20 Thread Jonathan Nieder
Introduce a die_error() helper that includes strerror in a fatal error message and use it where possible. In particular, when running radeontool as non-root, instead of the cryptic fatal error: mapping ctrl region the operator will get a more helpful diagnosis: fatal error:

[PATCH 6/6] radeontool: make card detection and mapping errors non-fatal

2012-02-20 Thread Jonathan Nieder
radeontool --help tries to map the control region in order to print dac and light state indicators embedded in the usage message. Unfortunately that means that running radeontool --help without sufficient privileges errors out without a usage message that would have hinted at what the tool is for
