This is a first step in a series of changes to avoid requiring a pinned object,
which gets in the way of doing non-root KMS. This change appears to result in
about a 2-6% loss in x11perf -aa10text, which better algorithms in libdrm could
make up for (it hasn't really had to deal with code this bad before).
Leaving the VT in KD_TEXT mode keeps the kernel's blanking code active,
so when a DPMS event happens, the fb console is restored rather than X's
configuration. On the downside it means the kernel won't print messages
in the background, which would be visible if a panic or emergency switch
occurred. The proper fix here is a new kernel mode, which we can move
to when ready.
This improves performance by avoiding repeated map/unmap cycles, which are
a bit expensive on my machine with lock debugging on in the kernel. It could
do much better if we did more than 18 or so floats at a time.
The require_space had failed since it only checked for the space required
by the batch emits in the function itself, but not in the
i965_emit_composite_state() that it called (the state we were concerned about
having set up for that 12 * 4 dwords to follow!). This is replaced by
intel_batch_start_atomic(), which will catch such mistakes in the future.
Previously it wouldn't count the pixmaps that were about to be used, which
is pretty much the only purpose of having the pain around. This also
eliminates the check_twice confusion with emit_batch_header_for_composite().
This increases the overhead for video in the presence of cliprects, but we
were already doing nasty things in that case and don't seem to care. This
could fix potential bad rendering or hangs with video, particularly with
DRI2.
It never worked with any upstream linux kernel, and is quite heavily
deprecated. A new solution based around DRI2 will probably be
forthcoming. Pageflipping itself is next.
The sony_laptop kernel module (since v2.6.23) supports backlight control
via the sysfs interface:
/sys/class/backlight/sony
This patch will enable xf86-video-intel to use this backlight control method
for Sony VAIO Laptops with Intel integrated video.
This also introduces tests to make sure that we asked for enough reserved space
and that we don't allow wrapping at the wrong time.
This fixes a hang during text rendering with DRI2 and a GL client running,
but could potentially affect text rendering with GEM in general with an
exceptional batchbuffer setup.
This fixes#17235, VGA random hang on recent G45/43 board.
From spec, SR01 bit 5 should be set before VGA plane disable through
control register, otherwise we might get random crash and lockups.
As the rotation memory and rotation pixmap are allocated separately (to make
rotation at startup work), the allocate dri_bo needs to be set in the pixmap
for acceleration to work. This restores the performance in rotated modes.

Because latest xorg will check whether the display is continuous frequency through one flag in monitor info structure,
if not it doesn't touch default modes. When laptop failed to fetch edid, We don't set the flag. In i830_lvds.c,
so currently we can not get default modes except only one mode line from bios.
In order to achieve default modes from xserver successfully,I set the flag and other EDID features.
If the EDID data from the LVDS doesn't indicate support for a wide range of
continuous frequencies, it will not match any of the default modes although
our LVDS scaler logic ignores refresh rates when programming LVDS modes. Fix
this by smashing the compute EDID data to open up the sync rates.

This fixes glReadPixels failure on single-channel 915GM, as the software code
for readpixels was actually the only code in the driver doing tiling against
these buffers (everything else says "rely on fence registers", since the 2D
blits don't have a "don't rely on fence registers" option).
This eliminates the separate i830_allocate_memory_tiled function which means
that all memory objects will have tiling parameters set correctly.

Since we don't perform any synchronization with the kernel on these regs, we
could race with the kernel to write stale values and end up not having vblank
interrupts enabled when somebody was waiting on one.
This should be a noop. If it wasn't a noop, it means that on pre-g33 chipsets
we were spamming some data into a page of system memory because we used a
virtual instead of a physical address. It was also supposed to not work when
we submit it from a batchbuffer, as we have been doing for some time now.
This code has existed since about the beginning of the driver's existence,
with no justification.
With batch flush notify vertex buffer will be unreferenced,
so don't count it in later aperture check. Also adding
uninitialized vertex buffer check in batch flush notify.
