Release 2.20.17 (2012-12-26) ===========================A minor update to prepare for co-operating with the kernel over managing stability on 830gm/845g. On this pair of chipsets, the kernel will perform an extra copy of the batchbuffer into reserved memory, which prevents them from randomly dying. However, that extra copy does have a noticeable impact upon throughput, so we also have a mechanism for userspace to opt-out of the kernel workaround and take responsibility for ensuring its batches are coherent. * Build fixes against xorg-1.14 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58552 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58406 * Fixed the origin of cropped (textured) video windows (Xv and XvMC) https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23033 * Fix potential corruption when using images larger than ~1GiB Chris Wilson (49): sna: Include shm hint in render placement sna/trapezoids: Add another inline hint sna/gen6+: Apply the is_scanout to the key not value in the binding cache sna/gen6+: Keep the bo on its current ring sna/gen6+: Tweak prefer-blt-bo sna: Do not force use of the GPU for a copy from a SHM pixmap sna: Tweak the idle SHM CopyArea path to also replace a busy GPU bo man: Describe Option "AccelMethod" intel: Support debugging through AccelMethod sna: Only flush at the low fence wm if idle sna: Precompute the base set of batch-flags sna: Try to reuse pinned batches by inspecting the kernel busy status sna: Enable support for opting out of the kernel CS workaround sna: Limit the default upload buffer size to half the cpu cache sna/video: Pass along the video source offset uxa: Fix copy'n'paste of false not FALSE sna: Promote pinned-batches to run-time detection sna: Untangle the confusion of caching large LLC bo sna: Refine check for an unset context switch sna/gen7: Mark the ring switch before checking bo sna: Prefer the GPU once again for PolyPoint sna/xvmc: Clean up to avoid crash'n'burn sna/video: Fix adjustment of drawable vs source origin wrt to clip sna/video: Amalgamate the computation of source vs dest offsets sna/video: Fix up the image size for copying sna/video: Fix up destination offset for copying cropped textured video planes sna/video: Fix up copying cropped textured video packed data sna/video: Fix presentation of cropped sprites sna/gen4+: Tweak preference of GPU placement for spans sna/video: Remove XvMCScreenInitProc sna: Ignore throttling during vertex close sna: Do not throttle before move-to-cpu sna/gen4+: Amalgamate all the gen4-7 vertex buffer emission intel: ODEV_ATTRIB_PATH is no longer printed, so kill the temporary variable sna: Check the correct variable for a failed allocation glamor: Release the drawable after passing to glamor_push_pixels uxa/dri: Correct the destination of the blit after chained flip is broken sna/video: Assert that the frame is initialised sna/dri: Avoid querying the current-msc with swapbbufers wait disabled sna/gen5: Backport tight vertex packing for simple renderblits sna/gen4: Backport more recent state tracking tweaks sna/gen4: Backport tight vertex packing of renderblits sna/dri: Set the correct current_msc for the no readback path sna/dri: Refactor get_current_msc between blit/flip paths sna: Refactor test for a rotation matrix sna: Remove a pair of stale assertions sna: Remove assertions that the pixmap is wholly defined when uploading sna/video: Initialise alignment for video ports > 0 2.20.17 release git tag: 2.20.17 http://xorg.freedesktop.org/archive/individual/driver/xf86-video-intel-2.20.17.tar.bz2 MD5: b76a8ad65b3f6f2f5e0842a55abbffbd xf86-video-intel-2.20.17.tar.bz2 SHA1: e783de38f24053618ed16d7c06b6f383c07f0661 xf86-video-intel-2.20.17.tar.bz2 SHA256: 0bf5e9bd82b2643e06503665545f5cc8c3e24ab48ca4fe84f4e9e7ebbb9e7dbc xf86-video-intel-2.20.17.tar.bz2 http://xorg.freedesktop.org/archive/individual/driver/xf86-video-intel-2.20.17.tar.gz MD5: 0f2d2bc9438b6038516eb2ee57ca9344 xf86-video-intel-2.20.17.tar.gz SHA1: 3050ef82953018b4e381845de01c77fa8e286a38 xf86-video-intel-2.20.17.tar.gz SHA256: 4787611e81a9d5ff5a840ecac7bfc52fb952cd814f3349673cbaa67d0850f52c xf86-video-intel-2.20.17.tar.gz -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
