to reproduce:
for(i in `{seq 10}) echo softscreen off >/dev/vgactl
|
|
Tilting allows using left/right rotated or invetrted display orientation.
This can be changed at runtime such as: echo tilt right > /dev/vgactl
This removes the old panning and vga overlays as they are only implemented
with some ancient vga controllers.

The new pci code is moved to port/pci.[hc] and shared by
all ports.
Each port has its own PCI controller implementation,
providing the pcicfgrw*() functions for low level pci
config space access. The locking for pcicfgrw*() is now
done by the caller (only port/pci.c).
Device drivers now need to include "../port/pci.h" in
addition to "io.h".
The new code now checks bridge windows and membars,
while enumerating the bus, giving the pc driver a chance
to re-assign them. This is needed because some UEFI
implementations fail to assign the bars for some devices,
so we need to do it outselfs. (See pcireservemem()).
While working on this, it was discovered that the pci
code assimed the smallest I/O bar size is 16 (pcibarsize()),
which is wrong. I/O bars can be as small as 4 bytes.
Bit 1 in an I/O bar is also reserved and should be masked off,
making the port mask: port = bar & ~3;

The swcursor used a 32x32 image for saving/restoring
screen contents for no reason.
Add a doflush argument to swcursorhide(), so that
disabling software cursor with a double buffered
softscreen is properly hidden. The doflush parameter
should be set to 0 in all other cases as swcursordraw()
will flushes both (current and previours) locations.
Make sure swcursorinit() and swcursorhide() clear the
visibility flag, even when gscreen is nil.
Remove the cursor locking and just do everything within
the drawlock. All cursor functions such as curson(),
cursoff() and setcursor() will be called drawlock
locked. This also means &cursor can be read.
Fix devmouse cursor reads and writes. We now have the
global cursor variable that is only modified under
the drawlock. So copy under drawlock.
Move the pc software cursor implementation into vgasoft
driver, so screen.c does not need to handle it as
a special case.
Remove unused functions such as drawhasclients().

- only accept decimal for numeric device id's
- exclude negative device id's
- device id's out of range yield Enodev

- remove arbitrary limits on screen size, just check with badrect()
- post resize when physgscreenr is changed (actualsize ctl command)
- preserve physgscreenr across softscreen flag toggle
- honor panning flag on resize
- fix nil dereference in panning ctl command when scr->gscreen == nil
- use clipr when drawing vga plan 9 console (vgascreenwin())

devmouse controls the screen blanking timeout, so move the
code there avoiding cross calls between modules. the only
function that needs to be provided is blankscreen(), which
gets called with drawlock locked.
the blank timeout is set thru /dev/mousectl now, so kernels
without devvga can set it.
blanking now only happens while /dev/mouse is read. so this
avoids accidentally blanking the screen on cpu servers that
do not have a mouse to unblank it.

add bootscreenconf(VGAscr *) function, that is called whenever
the framebuffer configuration is changed by devvga. that way, we
can pass the current setting of the framebuffer to the new
kernel when using /dev/reboot.
|
|
some vga drivers use virtual addresses in VGAscr.storage,
so has to be uintptr sized for amd64.
|
|
we have to reset hwblank when switching drivers to
prevent the generic vgablank() to be called by
blankscreen().
remove code setting hwblank from vga drivers as
devvga will always force hwblank to be 1 or 0
depending on if the driver provides a native blanking
routine.
set hwaccel to 1 when the driver provides native fill
and scroll routines independent of softscreen being
disabled. this allows hw acceleration to be used when
softscreen gets switched off.

don't hold drawlock duing vga enable and disable, but just zero
the function pointers under drawlock *before* disabling the vga
device.
holding the drawlock while calling out into enable and disable
is not a good idea. with vgavesa, this might deadlock when
userspace realemu tries to print in a rio window with vgavesa.
|

in 9front, screen blanking is always initiated from process context,
so there is no need for a kproc anymore.
care has been taken for the race between vesadisable() and vesablank()
by acquiering the drawlock prior calling scr->dev->enable() and
scr->dev->disable(). this also has the side effect of accelerated
fills and scrolls not being called during device disable.

At least on some NVIDIA cards the default scaling mode makes
black borders visible on all sides, even on native resolution.
This patch adds a generic "scaling MODE" command to vgactl
and adds support for it on VESA through NVIDIA VBE OEM extension.
It hasn't been tested on any other video cards, but shouldn't
break anything as the scaling mode is only set on write to vgactl.

the software cursor starts flickering and reacts bumby if a process
spends most of its time with drawlock acquired because the timer interrupt
thats supposed to redraw the cursor fails to acquire the lock at the time
the timer fires.
instead of trying to draw the cursor on the screen from a timer interrupt
30 times per second, devmouse now creates a process calling cursoron() and
cursoroff() when the cursor needs to be redrawn. this allows the swcursor
to schedule a redraw while holding the drawlock in swcursoravoid() and
cursoron()/cursoroff() are now able to wait for a qlock (drawlock) because
they get called from process context.
the overall responsiveness is also improved with this change as the cursor
redraw rate isnt limited to 30 times a second anymore.

previously, we had to maintain 3 sets of pci vid/did's:
1) in /lib/vgadb for detection
2) in the userspace driver in aux/vga
3) in the kernel mode driver
this change makes the kernel mode driver more dumb in
the cases where possible. we let userspace do the pci
enumeration and if needed, it can set the pci address
of the vga card. kernel mode drivers can assume to get
the right pci device passed in scr->pci for enable()
and linear() functions and just do very basic sanity
checking before mapping framebuffer and mmio regions.
vgalinearpciid() was removed as userspace is responsible
to pick pci device.
theres a new vgactl message "pcidev" where userspace
can set the bus address. we initialize scr->pci in
vgareset() to the first pci graphics card found. this
should cover cases when an old aux/vga binary is used
that doesnt use the new pcidev message.
userspace drivers will now use the pci device that got
a match from /lib/vgadb and skip ther own enumeration.
this way, vga cards can be made to work by simply adding
an entry in vgadb with no need to modify userspace or
kernelspace drivers. this is not always possible if
the driver derives information from the specific card
model.

allow the shadow framebuffer (softscreen) to be used with any
vga driver, not just vesa. this removes the ugly scr->paddr = 0
hack employed by vesa driver to force softscreen and adds a
softscreen vgactl message that can switch the feature on and off
at runtime.
softscreen can greatly improve graphics performance when bus
reads are slow even tho it disables hardware acceleration.
