Release 2.20.1 (2012-07-22)
|
||||
===========================
|
||||
A week in, grab the brown paper bags, for it is time to reveal a couple
|
||||
of critical bugs that spoilt the 2.20.0 release.
|
||||
|
||||
Firstly we have the restoration of DRI for i810. I am sure that the
|
||||
solitary user will be overjoyed in a couple of years when a new xserver
|
||||
is forced upon him. That enjoyment will be short-lived when as no actual
|
||||
acceleration remains, not even shadow, for the chipset.
|
||||
|
||||
Perhaps a little more wildly felt, I hope!, will be that the SNA
|
||||
fallbacks were broken on 64-bit machines if they required clipping. One
|
||||
little misplaced cast of a pointer, and the screen is filled with
|
||||
corruption.
|
||||
|
||||
Among the other tweaks this week:
|
||||
|
||||
* A bug affecting gen4 handling of trapezoids was fixed, and CPU
|
||||
overhead reduced.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
* A fix for a bug causing corruption of a DRI2 unredirected client
|
||||
window that was resized whilst under a compositor.
|
||||
|
||||
* Support for snoopable buffers on non-LLC architectures, coming to
|
||||
a future kernel. The aim to accelerate transfers between the CPU
|
||||
and the GPU, in particular to dramatically improve readback
|
||||
performance, and to further minimise clflushes.
|
||||
|
||||
* Improvement to the composite performance on GT2 SandyBridge and
|
||||
IvyBridge devices, in particular the render copy is significantly
|
||||
improved.
|
||||
|
||||
* Improved handling for when acceleration is disabled, including
|
||||
permitting DRI2 to remain supported even if the X server believes
|
||||
the GPU wedged.
|
||||
|
||||
* Shadow support was dropped from UXA as it was neither complete nor
|
||||
correct, use SNA instead.

||||

||||
Release 2.12.0 (2012-07-15)
