extensions that need to be passed to the kernel DRM drivers. The old
style interface will be frozen with 4.2 and contained in the
xf86drmCompat.c module for backwards compatability.
This version only has RadeonInitCP transitioned to the new interface. All
the other driver specific drm calls still need to be converted.
agp chipsets to drm_agpsupport.h, redid the card detection common code
to use a structure (avoids endian porting issues), changed the tdfx
driver to use the kernel pci id '#defines'
be ported, rolled back r128 and i810 version bumps so 4.1.0 works with
cvs kernel modules, added Config.in and updated Makefile.kernel,
incorporated lots of drm fixes inspired by patches sent by Redhat, made
DRM(realloc) usage check for NULL allocations, restructure driver init
routines to export dev_priv only when initialized and to check for all
error conditions.
glide header files.
The changes include:
- Brian Paul's changes to the tdfx client-side 3D driver to make it
dlopen() the correct glide library (Voodoo3 or Voodoo5). This allows
both types of the glide library to co-exist, and allows Voodoo3/Voodoo5
cards to be mixed in multi-head configs.
- DRM kernel driver changes to allow a driver to set up multiple instances
(minor numbers), one for each card present that the driver supports.
This is currently implemented and tested only for the tdfx DRM driver.
- Add some missing missing <stdarg.h> includes.
- Some log message cleanups.
- Change the 2D tdfx driver to access VGA legacy registers via their PCI
I/O space access points rather than their legacy addresses, and fix
some problems with the way the VGA-related bits are initialised.
Status:
- With these changes, multi-head direct rendering works with multiple
Voodoo3 and/or Voodoo5 cards. This has been tested with two PCI Voodoo3
cards and an AGP Voodoo5 card, and all permutations of those.
Caveats:
- Xinerama is not supported. If Xinerama is enabled, then direct rendering
gets disabled.
- The text mode on secondary screens will show junk after the X server
exits.
- On some hardware, starting the X server on multiple 3dfx cards will
result in a hard lockup. One workaround is to enable APIC support in a
uni-processor kernel, or use an SMP kernel.
more flexible and allow older module versions to still work. Might not
be final code if we move over to DRI kernel module version, but will be
if we use XFree86 version. + Only build tdfx.o instead of tdfx-4_1_0.o
since tdfx.o has never changed its API.
