Well, here it is (finally!). Lots of changes in this release (see below for
the shortlog & download URLs). We planned several things for this release:
1) usable EXA support
2) support for GEM (if supported by the currently running kernel)
3) support for kernel mode setting (again, if the underlying kernel supports
it)
4) no more video tearing with textured video & XvMC
5) Bug fixing
6) removal of XAA code
Item (4) was the main thing we missed this time (Nanhai has been working
flat out to get MPEG2 offload working so we didn't get a chance to try
different approaches for vblank sync'ing). I think the real fix here will
be DRI2, which should allow us to run compositing managers in DRI mode,
with real vblank sync'ing for all their drawing.
Also, I didn't follow through with my threat to remove XAA, even though EXA
improved significantly this time around (especially with post-1.5 X servers).
The blocker list was almost completely cleared out. We still have a few
issues (including a Sony/GM45 related problem we still don't understand),
but
overall all our bug fixers deserve a big thank you.
GEM support is looking great now, and is now in upstream Linux, so should be
part of the 2.6.28 release.
Kernel mode setting support is also included, though the kernel bits aren't
queued up yet. Small patches will be needed when it finally lands upstream,
mainly for mapping pixmaps through the GTT for better fallback handling.
This release also includes UXA, a new acceleration architecture Keith put
together specifically for UMA machines. It does its own pixmap management,
but as a result really wants the same sort of GTT mapping interface that we
need for kernel mode setting. I'm hoping to have that fixed up this week
(again this means small patches on top of 2.5.0 to get good performance).
This release requires libdrm 2.4.0 which was recently released, but should
work on both GEM and non-GEM enabled kernels. It should also build & work
against old X servers (theoretically going back to 1.3 I think, but I
haven't
tested that configuration recently).
So please pull this release down and give it a try. As usual, report bugs
to bugs.freedesktop.org and use xorg@ and intel-gfx@ for questions and
development discussion.
Thanks,
Jesse
