CRT blanking needn't be adjusted to perform load detection on 9xx chips, and
the 8xx load detection path now adjusts blanking just during load detection.
Adjusting the blanking interval turned out to cause many monitors to fail to
sync.
If the pipe or output have been set to DPMSOff, then load detection will not
work correctly. Also, share the load detection configuration code between
crt and tv outputs.
Instead of always adding blanking to mode lines, use the FORCE_BORDER option
on i9xx hardware where it works, and dynamically add a bit of border if
necessary on i8xx hardware to make load detection work. This may cause
flashing when a usable crtc is not otherwise idle when load detection is
requested.
The upper bits would have been inappropriately dropped on G33-class hardware,
and on G965-class hardware in a 32-bit environment. The only use of physical
addresses on these should be for FBC, though, and FBC requires addresses
below 4GB. This is unresolved.
- change framebuffer option name to "FramebufferCompression"
- add new "Tiling" option (controls all tiling, not just front buffer)
- add debug message to fb compression enable/disable routines
- update man page with new options
The automatic panel scaling appears to choose bad sampling on some GM965
hardware for 1:1 mapping modes, and there's no real sense in having it on
if we just want 1:1.
Make sure there is some border area to use by changing how the pipe is
configured, then pick a scanline in the middle of the border for load
detection. This lets the load detect code use an active pipe instead of
requiring an idle one.
Just as with i9xx LVDS, the i855 LVDS can operate in dual-channel mode with
a modified P2 divisor value (7 instead of 14). Just using the existing 9xx
code for 855 appears to work fine.
LVDS mode changes how the PLL works in fairly dramatic ways; the debug code
wasn't properly accounting for those differences resulting in fairly bogus
debug output.
