       support to the DMX X server, thereby allowing a window or some
       selected part of the logical DMX area to be displayed using a
       scaling factor.  For example, this might allow the contents of a
       window to be magnified for easier viewing.  In particular, scaling

               First, XCopyAreaScaled would provide for RGB scaling
               between pixmaps (i.e., on-screen or off-screen areas of
               memory that reside on the video card).  Unlike the X Video
               Extension, which writes into an overlay plane,
               XCopyAreaScaled would write into the non-overlay areas of
               the screen.  Key points to consider are as follows:

                   Because different planes are involved, the two scaling
                   operations are usually implemented in hardware
                   differently, so an XCopyAreaScaled extension could be
                   added in a manner that would neither conflict with nor
                   interact with the X Video extension in any way.

                 implementation pathway would be helpful to others.

                 Until XCopyAreaScaled is widely supported, applications
                 that require scaling will have to fall back to another
                 scaling method.  We suggest OpenGL as the first fall-back
                 method because it is widely available and supported by
                 DMX.

                 A project centered around OpenGL-based scaling would
                 implement this scaling in VNC as an example.  This work

                 Since OpenGL is not implemented everywhere, and may not
                 provide hardware-assisted performance in every
                 implementation, an application that requires scaling
                 should also fall back to using the X Video Extension.

                 This project would add support for the X Video Extension
                 to DMX and would add support to VNC to take advantage of
                 this extension without introducing artifacts.  This

                 engine to cache a master copy of the desktop image for
                 all operations.  This project should also add support
                 for the RGB format to at least one XFree86 driver (e.g.,
                 ATI Radeon).

                 The X Video Extension is one of the few popular
                 extensions that DMX does not support.  We recommend
                 implementing the X Video Extension even if scaling is
                 the specific goal of that work.

-<p>
-<bf>NOTE</bf>: This is a DRAFT document, and the interfaces described here
-are subject to change without notice.
-
-
-<sect>Preface
-<p>
-
-The broad design principles are:
-<itemize>
-  <item>keep it reasonable
-	<itemize>
-	  <item>We cannot rewrite the complete server
-	  <item>We don't want to re-invent the wheel
-	</itemize>
-  <item>keep it modular
-	<itemize>
-	  <item>As many things as possible should go into modules
-	  <item>The basic loader binary should be minimal
-	  <item>A clean design with well defined layering is important
-	  <item>DDX specific global variables are a nono
-	  <item>The structure should be flexible enough to allow
-		future extensions
-	  <item> The structure should minimize duplication of common code
-	</itemize>
-  <item>keep important features in mind
-	<itemize>
-	  <item>multiple screens, including multiple instances of drivers
-	  <item>mixing different color depths and visuals on different
-		and ideally even on the same screen
-	  <item>better control of the PCI device used
-	  <item>better config file parser
-	  <item>get rid of all VGA compatibility assumptions
-	</itemize>
-</itemize>
-
-Unless we find major deficiencies in the DIX layer, we should avoid
-making changes there.
-
-<sect>The xorg.conf File
-<p>
-
-The xorg.conf file format is similar to the old format, with the following
-changes:
-
-<sect1>&k.device; section
-<p>
-
-    The &k.device; sections are similar to what they used to be, and
-    describe hardware-specific information for a single video card.
-    &k.device;
-    Some new keywords are added:
-
-
-    <descrip>
-      <tag>Driver "drivername"</tag>
-        Specifies the name of the driver to be used for the card.  This
-        is mandatory.
-      <tag>BusID "busslot"</tag>
-        Specifies uniquely the location of the card on the bus.  The
-        purpose is to identify particular cards in a multi-headed
-        configuration.  The format of the argument is intentionally
-        vague, and may be architecture dependent.  For a PCI bus, it
-        is something like "bus:slot:func".
-    </descrip>
-
-    A &k.device; section is considered ``active'' if there is a reference
-    to it in an active &k.screen; section.
-
-<sect1>&k.screen; section
-<p>
-
-    The &k.screen; sections are similar to what they used to be.  They
-    no longer have a &k.driver; keyword, but an &k.identifier; keyword
-    is added.  (The &k.driver; keyword may be accepted in place of the
-    &k.identifier; keyword for compatibility purposes.)  The identifier
-    can be used to identify which screen is to be active when multiple
-    &k.screen sections are present.  It is possible to specify the active
-    screen from the command line.  A default is chosen in the absence
-    of one being specified.  A &k.screen; section is considered ``active''
-    if there is a reference to it either from the command line, or from
-    an active &k.serverlayout; section.
-
-<sect1>&k.inputdevice; section
-<p>
-
-    The &k.inputdevice; section is a new section that describes
-    configuration information for input devices.  It replaces the old
-    &s.key;Keyboard&e.key;, &s.key;Pointer&e.key; and &s.key;XInput&e.key;
-    sections.  Like the &k.device; section, it has two mandatory keywords:
-    &k.identifier; and &k.driver;.  For compatibility purposes the old
-    &s.key;Keyboard&e.key; and &s.key;Pointer&e.key; sections are
-    converted by the parser into &k.inputdevice; sections as follows:
-
-    <descrip>
-      <tag>&s.key;Keyboard&e.key;</tag>
-             &k.identifier; "Implicit Core Keyboard"<newline>
-             &k.driver; "keyboard"
-      <tag>&s.key;Pointer&e.key;</tag>
-             &k.identifier; "Implicit Core Pointer"<newline>
-             &k.driver; "mouse"
-    </descrip>
-
-    An &k.inputdevice; section is considered active if there is a
-    reference to it in an active &k.serverlayout; section.  An
-    &k.inputdevice; section may also be referenced implicitly if there
-    is no &k.serverlayout; section, if the &s.cmd;-screen&e.cmd; command
-    line options is used, or if the &k.serverlayout; section doesn't
-    reference any &k.inputdevice; sections.  In this case, the first
-    sections with drivers "keyboard" and "mouse" are used as the core
-    keyboard and pointer respectively.
-
-<sect1>&k.serverlayout; section
-<p>
-
-    The &k.serverlayout; section is a new section that is used to identify
-    which &k.screen; sections are to be used in a multi-headed configuration,
-    and the relative layout of those screens.  It also identifies which
-    &k.inputdevice; sections are to be used.  Each &k.serverlayout section
-    has an identifier, a list of &k.screen; section identifiers, and a list of
-    &k.inputdevice; section identifiers.  &k.serverflags; options may also be
-    included in a &k.serverlayout; section, making it possible to override
-    the global values in the &k.serverflags; section.
-
-    A &k.serverlayout; section can be made active by being referenced on
-    the command line.  In the absence of this, a default will be chosen
-    (the first one found).  The screen names may optionally be followed
-    by a number specifying the preferred screen number, and optionally
-    by information specifying the physical positioning of the screen,
-    either in absolute terms or relative to another screen (or screens).
-    When no screen number is specified, they are numbered according to
-    the order in which they are listed.  The old (now obsolete) method
-    of providing the positioning information is to give the names of
-    the four adjacent screens.  The order of these is top, bottom, left,
-    right.  Here is an example of a &k.serverlayout; section for two
-    screens using the old method, with the second located to the right
-    of the first:
-
-    <code>
-      Section "ServerLayout"
-        Identifier "Main Layout"
-        Screen     0 "Screen 1" ""  ""  ""  "Screen 2"
-        Screen     1 "Screen 2"
-        Screen     "Screen 3"
-      EndSection
-    </code>
-
-    The preferred way of specifying the layout is to explicitly specify
-    the screen's location in absolute terms or relative to another
-    screen.
-
-    In the absolute case, the upper left corner's coordinates are given
-    after the &s.key;Absolute&e.key; keyword.  If the coordinates are
-    omitted, a value of &s.code;(0,0)&e.code; is assumed.  An example
-    of absolute positioning follows:
-
-    <code>
-      Section "ServerLayout"
-        Identifier "Main Layout"
-        Screen     0 "Screen 1" Absolute 0 0
-        Screen     1 "Screen 2" Absolute 1024 0
-        Screen     "Screen 3" Absolute 2048 0
-      EndSection
-    </code>
-
-    In the relative case, the position is specified by either using one of
-    the following keywords followed by the name of the reference screen:
-
-    <quote>
-      &s.key;RightOf&nl;
-      LeftOf&nl;
-      Above&nl;
-      Below&nl;
-      Relative&e.key;
-    </quote>
-
-    When the &s.key;Relative&e.key; keyword is used, the reference screen
-    name is followed by the coordinates of the new screen's origin
-    relative to reference screen.  The following example shows how to use
-    some of the relative positioning options.
-
-    <code>
-      Section "ServerLayout"
-        Identifier "Main Layout"
-        Screen     0 "Screen 1"
-        Screen     1 "Screen 2" RightOf "Screen 1"
-        Screen     "Screen 3" Relative "Screen 1" 2048 0
-      EndSection
-    </code>
-
-<sect1>Options
-<p>
-
-    Options are used more extensively.  They may appear in most sections
-    now.  Options related to drivers can be present in the &k.screen;,
-    &k.device; and &k.monitor; sections and the &k.display; subsections.
-    The order of precedence is &k.display;, &k.screen;, &k.monitor;,
-    &k.device;.  Options have been extended to allow an optional value
-    to be specified in addition to the option name.  For more details
-    about options, see the <ref id="options" name="Options"> section
-    for details.
-
-<sect>Driver Interface
-<p>
-
-The driver interface consists of a minimal set of entry points that are
-required based on the external events that the driver must react to.
-No non-essential structure is imposed on the way they are used beyond
-that.  This is a significant difference compared with the old design.
-
-The entry points for drawing operations are already taken care of by
-the framebuffer code (including, XAA).  Extensions and enhancements to
-framebuffer code are outside the scope of this document.
-
-This approach to the driver interface provides good flexibility, but does
-increase the complexity of drivers.  To help address this, the XFree86
-common layer provides a set of ``helper'' functions to take care of things
-that most drivers need.  These helpers help minimise the amount of code
-duplication between drivers.  The use of helper functions by drivers is
-however optional, though encouraged.  The basic philosophy behind the
-helper functions is that they should be useful to many drivers, that
-they should balance this against the complexity of their interface.  It
-is inevitable that some drivers may find some helpers unsuitable and
-need to provide their own code.
-
-Events that a driver needs to react to are:
-
-   <descrip>
-   <tag>ScreenInit</tag>
-
-     An initialisation function is called from the DIX layer for each
-     screen at the start of each server generation.
-
-   <tag>Enter VT</tag>
-
-     The server takes control of the console.
-
-   <tag>Leave VT</tag>
-
-     The server releases control of the console.
-
-   <tag>Mode Switch</tag>
-
-     Change video mode.
-
-   <tag>ViewPort change</tag>
-
-     Change the origin of the physical view port.
-
-   <tag>ScreenSaver state change</tag>
-
-     Screen saver activation/deactivation.
-
-   <tag>CloseScreen</tag>
-
-     A close screen function is called from the DIX layer for each screen
-     at the end of each server generation.
-   </descrip>
-
-
-In addition to these events, the following functions are required by
-the XFree86 common layer:
-
-   <descrip>
-   <tag>Identify</tag>
-
-     Print a driver identifying message.
-
-   <tag>Probe</tag>
-
-     This is how a driver identifies if there is any hardware present that
-     it knows how to drive.
-
-   <tag>PreInit</tag>
-
-     Process information from the xorg.conf file, determine the
-     full characteristics of the hardware, and determine if a valid
-     configuration is present.
-   </descrip>
-
-The VidMode extension also requires:
-
-   <descrip>
-   <tag>ValidMode</tag>
-
-     Identify if a new mode is usable with the current configuration.
-     The PreInit function (and/or helpers it calls) may also make use
-     of the ValidMode function or something similar.
-   </descrip>
-
-
-Other extensions may require other entry points.  The drivers will
-inform the common layer of these in such cases.
-
-<sect>Resource Access Control Introduction
-<p>
-
-Graphics devices are accessed through ranges in I/O or memory space.
-While most modern graphics devices allow relocation of such ranges many
-of them still require the use of well established interfaces such as
-VGA memory and IO ranges or 8514/A IO ranges.  With modern buses (like
-PCI) it is possible for multiple video devices to share access to these
-resources.  The RAC (Resource Access Control) subsystem provides a
-mechanism for this.
-
-<sect1>Terms and Definitions
-<p>
-
-<sect2>Bus
-<p>
-
-    ``Bus'' is ambiguous as it is used for different things: it may refer
-    to physical incompatible extension connectors in a computer system.
-    The RAC system knows two such systems: The ISA bus and the PCI bus.
-    (On the software level EISA, MCA and VL buses are currently treated
-    like ISA buses).  ``Bus'' may also refer to logically different
-    entities on a single bus system which are connected via bridges.  A
-    PCI system may have several distinct PCI buses connecting each other
-    by PCI-PCI bridges or to the host CPU by HOST-PCI bridges.
-
-    Systems that host more than one bus system link these together using
-    bridges.  Bridges are a concern to RAC as they might block or pass
-    specific resources.  PCI-PCI bridges may be set up to pass VGA
-    resources to the secondary bus.  PCI-ISA buses pass any resources not
-    decoded on the primary PCI bus to the ISA bus.  This way VGA resources
-    (although exclusive on the ISA bus) can be shared by ISA and PCI
-    cards.  Currently HOST-PCI bridges are not yet handled by RAC as they
-    require specific drivers.
-
-<sect2>Entity
-<p>
-
-    The smallest independently addressable unit on a system bus is
-    referred to as an entity.  So far we know ISA and PCI entities.  PCI
-    entities can be located on the PCI bus by an unique ID consisting of
-    the bus, card and function number.
-
-<sect2>Resource
-<p>
-
-    ``Resource'' refers to a range of memory or I/O addresses an entity
-    can decode.
-
-    If a device is capable of disabling this decoding the resource is
-    called sharable.  For PCI devices a generic method is provided to
-    control resource decoding.  Other devices will have to provide a
-    device specific function to control decoding.
-
-    If the entity is capable of decoding this range at a different
-    location this resource is considered relocatable.
-
-    Resources which start at a specific address and occupy a single
-    continuous range are called block resources.
-
-    Alternatively resource addresses can be decoded in a way that they
-    satisfy the conditions:
-    <quote><verb>
-                    address & mask == base
-    </verb></quote>
-    and
-    <quote><verb>
-                       base & mask == base
-    </verb></quote>
-    Resources addressed in such a way are called sparse resources.
-
-<sect2>Server States
-<p>
-
-    The resource access control system knows two server states: the
-    SETUP and the OPERATING state.  The SETUP state is entered whenever
-    a mode change takes place or the server exits or does VT switching.
-    During this state all entity resources are under resource access
-    control.  During OPERATING state only those entities are controlled
-    which actually have shared resources that conflict with others.
-
-<sect>Control Flow in the Server and Mandatory Driver Functions
-<p>
-
-At the start of each server generation, &s.code;main()&e.code;
-(&s.code;dix/main.c&e.code;) calls the DDX function
-&s.code;InitOutput()&e.code;.  This is the first place that the DDX gets
-control.  &s.code;InitOutput()&e.code; is expected to fill in the global
-&s.code;screenInfo&e.code; struct, and one
-&s.code;screenInfo.screen[]&e.code; entry for each screen present.  Here
-is what &s.code;InitOutput()&e.code; does:
-
-<sect1>Parse the xorg.conf file
-<p>
-
-    This is done at the start of the first server generation only.
-
-    The xorg.conf file is read in full, and the resulting information
-    stored in data structures.  None of the parsed information is
-    processed at this point.  The parser data structures are opaque to
-    the video drivers and to most of the common layer code.
-
-    The entire file is parsed first to remove any section ordering
-    requirements.
-
-
-<sect1>Initial processing of parsed information and command line options
-<p>
-
-    This is done at the start of the first server generation only.
-
-    The initial processing is to determine paths like the
-    &s.key;ModulePath&e.key;, etc, and to determine which &k.serverlayout;,
-    &k.screen; and &k.device; sections are active.
-
-
-<sect1>Enable port I/O access
-<p>
-
-    Port I/O access is controlled from the XFree86 common layer, and is

-    the start of subsequent server generations, and when VT switching
-    back to the Xserver.  It is disabled at the end of server generations,

-    The implementation details of this may vary on different platforms.

-<sect1>General bus probe
-<p>
-
-    This is done at the start of the first server generation only.
-
-    In the case of ix86 machines, this will be a general PCI probe.
-    The full information obtained here will be available to the drivers.
-    This information persists for the life of the Xserver.  In the PCI
-    case, the PCI information for all video cards found is available by
-    calling &s.code;xf86GetPciVideoInfo()&e.code;.

-
-<sect1>Load initial set of modules
-<p>
-
-    This is done at the start of the first server generation only.
-
-    The core server contains a list of mandatory modules.  These are loaded
-    first.  Currently the only module on this list is the bitmap font module.
-
-    The next set of modules loaded are those specified explicitly in the
-    &k.module; section of the config file.
-
-    The final set of initial modules are the driver modules referenced
-    by the active &k.device; and &k.inputdevice; sections in the config
-    file.  Each of these modules is loaded exactly once.
-
-
-<sect1>Register Video and Input Drivers
-<p>
-
-    This is done at the start of the first server generation only.
-
-    When a driver module is loaded, the loader calls its
-    &s.code;Setup&e.code; function.  For video drivers, this function
-    calls &s.code;xf86AddDriver()&e.code; to register the driver's
-    &s.code;DriverRec&e.code;, which contains a small set of essential
-    details and driver entry points required during the early phase of
-    &s.code;InitOutput()&e.code;.  &s.code;xf86AddDriver()&e.code; adds
-    it to the global &s.code;xf86DriverList[]&e.code; array.
-
-    The &s.code;DriverRec&e.code; contains the driver canonical name,
-    the &s.code;Identify()&e.code;,
-    &s.code;Probe()&e.code; and &s.code;AvailableOptions()&e.code;
-    function entry points as well as a pointer
-    to the driver's module (as returned from the loader when the driver
-    was loaded) and a reference count which keeps track of how many
-    screens are using the driver.  The entry driver entry points are
-    those required prior to the driver allocating and filling in its
-    &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code;.
-
-    For a static server, the &s.code;xf86DriverList[]&e.code; array is
-    initialised at build time, and the loading of modules is not done.
-
-    A similar procedure is used for input drivers.  The input driver's
-    &s.code;Setup&e.code; function calls
-    &s.code;xf86AddInputDriver()&e.code; to register the driver's
-    &s.code;InputDriverRec&e.code;, which contains a small set of
-    essential details and driver entry points required during the early
-    phase of &s.code;InitInput()&e.code;.
-    &s.code;xf86AddInputDriver()&e.code; adds it to the global
-    &s.code;xf86InputDriverList[]&e.code; array.  For a static server,
-    the &s.code;xf86InputDriverList[]&e.code; array is initialised at
-    build time.
-
-    Both the &s.code;xf86DriverList[]&e.code; and
-    &s.code;xf86InputDriverList[]&e.code; arrays have been initialised
-    by the end of this stage.
-
-    Once all the drivers are registered, their
-    &s.code;ChipIdentify()&e.code; functions are called.
-
-    <quote>
-    &s.code;void ChipIdentify(int flags)&e.code;
-    <quote>
-      This is expected to print a message indicating the driver name,
-      a short summary of what it supports, and a list of the chipset
-      names that it supports.  It may use the xf86PrintChipsets() helper
-      to do this.
-    </quote>

-
-<sect1>Initialise Access Control
-<p>
-
-    This is done at the start of the first server generation only.
-
-    The Resource Access Control (RAC) subsystem is initialised before
-    calling any driver functions that may access hardware.  All generic
-    bus information is probed and saved (for restoration later).  All
-    (shared resource) video devices are disabled at the generic bus
-    level, and a probe is done to find the ``primary'' video device.  These
-    devices remain disabled for the next step.
-
-
-<sect1>Video Driver Probe<label id="probe">
-<p>
-    This is done at the start of the first server generation only.  The
-    &s.code;ChipProbe()&e.code; function of each registered video driver
-    is called.
-
-    <quote><p>
-    &s.code;Bool ChipProbe(DriverPtr drv, int flags)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      The purpose of this is to identify all instances of hardware
-      supported by the driver.  The flags value is currently either 0,
-      &s.code;PROBE_DEFAULT&e.code; or &s.code;PROBE_DETECT&e.code;.
-      &s.code;PROBE_DETECT&e.code; is used if "-configure" or "-probe"
-      command line arguments are given and indicates to the
-      &s.code;Probe()&e.code; function that it should not configure the
-      bus entities and that no xorg.conf information is available.
-
-      The probe must find the active device sections that match the
-      driver by calling &s.code;xf86MatchDevice()&e.code;.  The number
-      of matches found limits the maximum number of instances for this
-      driver.  If no matches are found, the function should return
-      &s.code;FALSE&e.code; immediately.
-
-      Devices that cannot be identified by using device-independent
-      methods should be probed at this stage (keeping in mind that access
-      to all resources that can be disabled in a device-independent way
-      are disabled during this phase).  The probe must be a minimal
-      probe.  It should just determine if there is a card present that
-      the driver can drive.  It should use the least intrusive probe
-      methods possible.  It must not do anything that is not essential,
-      like probing for other details such as the amount of memory
-      installed, etc.  It is recommended that the
-      &s.code;xf86MatchPciInstances()&e.code; helper function be used
-      for identifying matching PCI devices, and similarly the
-      &s.code;xf86MatchIsaInstances()&e.code; for ISA (non-PCI) devices
-      (see the <ref id="rac" name="RAC"> section).  These helpers also
-      checks and claims the appropriate entity.  When not using the
-      helper, that should be done with &s.code;xf86CheckPciSlot()&e.code;
-      and &s.code;xf86ClaimPciSlot()&e.code; for PCI devices and
-      &s.code;xf86ClaimIsaSlot()&e.code; for ISA devices (see the
-      <ref id="rac" name="RAC"> section).
-
-      The probe must register all non-relocatable resources at this
-      stage.  If a resource conflict is found between exclusive resources
-      the driver will fail immediately.  This is usually best done with
-      the &s.code;xf86ConfigPciEntity()&e.code; helper function
-      for PCI and &s.code;xf86ConfigIsaEntity()&e.code; for ISA
-      (see the <ref id="rac" name="RAC"> section).  It is possible to
-      register some entity specific functions with those helpers.  When
-      not using the helpers, the &s.code;xf86AddEntityToScreen()&e.code;
-      &s.code;xf86ClaimFixedResources()&e.code; and
-      &s.code;xf86SetEntityFuncs()&e.code; should be used instead (see
-      the <ref id="rac" name="RAC"> section).
-
-      If a chipset is specified in an active device section which the
-      driver considers relevant (ie it has no driver specified, or the
-      driver specified matches the driver doing the probe), the Probe
-      must return &s.code;FALSE&e.code; if the chipset doesn't match
-      one supported by the driver.
-
-      If there are no active device sections that the driver considers
-      relevant, it must return &s.code;FALSE&e.code;.
-
-      Allocate a &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code; for each active instance of the
-      hardware found, and fill in the basic information, including the
-      other driver entry points.   This is best done with the
-      &s.code;xf86ConfigIsaEntity()&e.code; helper function for ISA
-      instances or &s.code;xf86ConfigPciEntity()&e.code; for PCI instances.
-      These functions allocate a &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code; for active
-      entities. Optionally &s.code;xf86AllocateScreen()&e.code;
-      function may also be used to allocate the &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code;.
-      Any of these functions take care of initialising fields to defined
-      ``unused'' values.
-
-      Claim the entities for each instance of the hardware found.  This
-      prevents other drivers from claiming the same hardware.
-
-      Must leave hardware in the same state it found it in, and must not
-      do any hardware initialisation.
-
-      All detection can be overridden via the config file, and that
-      parsed information is available to the driver at this stage.
-
-      Returns &s.code;TRUE&e.code; if one or more instances are found,

-<sect1>Allocate non-conflicting resources
-<p>
-
-    This is done at the start of the first server generation only.
-
-    Before calling the drivers again, the resource information collected
-    from the Probe phase is processed.  This includes checking the extent
-    of PCI resources for the probed devices, and resolving any conflicts
-    in the relocatable PCI resources.  It also reports conflicts, checks
-    bus routing issues, and anything else that is needed to enable the

-
-    <quote><p>
-    &s.code;Bool ChipPreInit(ScrnInfoRec screen, int flags)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      The purpose of this function is to find out all the information
-      required to determine if the configuration is usable, and to
-      initialise those parts of the &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code; that
-      can be set once at the beginning of the first server generation.
-
-      The number of entities registered for the screen should be checked
-      against the expected number (most drivers expect only one).  The
-      entity information for each of them should be retrieved (with
-      &s.code;xf86GetEntityInfo()&e.code;) and checked for the correct
-      bus type and that none of the sharable resources registered during
-      the Probe phase was rejected.
-
-      Access to resources for the entities that can be controlled in a
-      device-independent way are enabled before this function is called.
-      If the driver needs to access any resources that it has disabled
-      in an &s.code;EntityInit()&e.code; function that it registered,
-      then it may enable them here providing that it disables them before
-      this function returns.
-
-      This includes probing for video memory, clocks, ramdac, and all
-      other HW info that is needed.  It includes determining the
-      depth/bpp/visual and related info.  It includes validating and
-      determining the set of video modes that will be used (and anything
-      that is required to determine that).
-
-      This information should be determined in the least intrusive way
-      possible.  The state of the HW must remain unchanged by this
-      function.  Although video memory (including MMIO) may be mapped
-      within this function, it must be unmapped before returning.  Driver
-      specific information should be stored in a structure hooked into
-      the &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code;'s &s.code;driverPrivate&e.code;
-      field.  Any other modules which require persistent data (ie data
-      that persists across server generations) should be initialised in
-      this function, and they should allocate a ``privates'' index to
-      hook their data into by calling
-      &s.code;xf86AllocateScrnInfoPrivateIndex().&e.code;  The ``privates''
-      data is persistent.
-
-      Helper functions for some of these things are provided at the
-      XFree86 common level, and the driver can choose to make use of
-      them.
-
-      All additional resources that the screen needs must be registered
-      here.  This should be done with
-      &s.code;xf86RegisterResources()&e.code;.  If some of the fixed
-      resources registered in the Probe phase are not needed or not
-      decoded by the hardware when in the OPERATING server state, their
-      status should be updated with
-      &s.code;xf86SetOperatingState()&e.code;.
-
-      Modules may be loaded at any point in this function, and all
-      modules that the driver will need must be loaded before the end
-      of this function.  Either the  &s.code;xf86LoadSubModule()&e.code;
-      or the &s.code;xf86LoadDrvSubModule()&e.code; function should be
-      used to load modules depending on whether a
-      &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code; has been set up. A driver may unload
-      a module within this function if it was only needed temporarily,
-      and the &s.code;xf86UnloadSubModule()&e.code; function should be used
-      to do that.  Otherwise there is no need to explicitly unload modules
-      because the loader takes care of module dependencies and will
-      unload submodules automatically if/when the driver module is
-      unloaded.
-
-      The bulk of the &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code; fields should be filled
-      out in this function.
-
-      &s.code;ChipPreInit()&e.code; returns &s.code;FALSE&e.code; when
-      the configuration is unusable in some way (unsupported depth, no
-      valid modes, not enough video memory, etc), and &s.code;TRUE&e.code;
-      if it is usable.
-
-      It is expected that if the &s.code;ChipPreInit()&e.code; function
-      returns &s.code;TRUE&e.code;, then the only reasons that subsequent
-      stages in the driver might fail are lack or resources (like xalloc
-      failures).  All other possible reasons for failure should be
-      determined by the &s.code;ChipPreInit()&e.code; function.
-
-    </quote>
-    </quote>
-
-    The &s.code;ScrnInfoRecs&e.code; for screens where the &s.code;ChipPreInit()&e.code; fails are removed.
-    If none remain, &s.code;InitOutput()&e.code; sets &s.code;screenInfo.numScreens&e.code; to &s.code;0&e.code; and returns.
-
-    At this point, further fields of the &s.code;ScrnInfoRecs&e.code; would normally be
-    filled in.  Most are not strictly mandatory, but many are required
-    by other layers and/or helper functions that the driver may choose

-<sect1>Cleaning up Unused Drivers
-<p>
-
-    At this point it is known which screens will be in use, and which
-    drivers are being used.  Unreferenced drivers (and modules they
-    may have loaded) are unloaded here.
-
-
-<sect1>Consistency Checks
-<p>
-
-    The parameters that must be global to the server, like pixmap formats,
-    bitmap bit order, bitmap scanline unit and image byte order are
-    compared for each of the screens.  If a mismatch is found, the server
-    exits with an appropriate message.
-
-
-<sect1>Check if Resource Control is Needed
-<p>
-
-    Determine if resource access control is needed.  This is the case
-    if more than one screen is used.  If necessary the RAC wrapper module
-    is loaded.
-
-<sect1>AddScreen (ScreenInit)
-<p>
-
-    At this point, the valid screens are known.
-    &s.code;AddScreen()&e.code; is called for each of them, passing
-    &s.code;ChipScreenInit()&e.code; as the argument.
-    &s.code;AddScreen()&e.code; is a DIX function that allocates a new
-    &s.code;screenInfo.screen[]&e.code; entry (aka
-    &s.code;pScreen&e.code;), and does some basic initialisation of it.
-    It then calls the &s.code;ChipScreenInit()&e.code; function, with
-    &s.code;pScreen&e.code; as one of its arguments.  If
-    &s.code;ChipScreenInit()&e.code; returns &s.code;FALSE&e.code;,
-    &s.code;AddScreen()&e.code; returns &s.code;-1&e.code;.  Otherwise
-    it returns the index of the screen.  &s.code;AddScreen()&e.code;
-    should only fail because of programming errors or failure to allocate
-    resources (like memory).  All configuration problems should be
-    detected BEFORE this point.
-
-    <quote><p>
-    &s.code;Bool ChipScreenInit(int index, ScreenPtr pScreen,
-	&f.indent;int argc, char **argv)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      This is called at the start of each server generation.
-
-      Fill in all of &s.code;pScreen&e.code;, possibly doing some of
-      this by calling ScreenInit functions from other layers like mi,
-      framebuffers (cfb, etc), and extensions.
-
-      Decide which operations need to be placed under resource access
-      control.  The classes of operations are the frame buffer operations
-      (&s.code;RAC_FB&e.code;), the pointer operations
-      (&s.code;RAC_CURSOR&e.code;), the viewport change operations
-      (&s.code;RAC_VIEWPORT&e.code;) and the colormap operations
-      (&s.code;RAC_COLORMAP&e.code;).  Any operation that requires
-      resources which might be disabled during OPERATING state should
-      be set to use RAC.  This can be specified separately for memory
-      and IO resources (the &s.code;racMemFlags&e.code; and
-      &s.code;racIoFlags&e.code; fields of the &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code;
-      respectively).
-
-      Map any video memory or other memory regions.
-
-      Save the video card state.  Enough state must be saved so that
-      the original state can later be restored.
-
-      Initialise the initial video mode.  The &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code;'s
-      &s.code;vtSema&e.code; field should be set to &s.code;TRUE&e.code;
-      just prior to changing the video hardware's state.
-
-    </quote>
-    </quote>
-
-
-    The &s.code;ChipScreenInit()&e.code; function (or functions from other
-    layers that it calls) should allocate entries in the
-    &s.code;ScreenRec&e.code;'s &s.code;devPrivates&e.code; area by
-    calling &s.code;AllocateScreenPrivateIndex()&e.code; if it needs
-    per-generation storage.  Since the &s.code;ScreenRec&e.code;'s
-    &s.code;devPrivates&e.code; information is cleared for each server
-    generation, this is the correct place to initialise it.
-
-    After &s.code;AddScreen()&e.code; has successfully returned, the
-    following &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code; fields are initialised:
-
-    <quote><verb>
-          pScreen
-          racMemFlags
-          racIoFlags
-    </verb></quote>
-
-    The &s.code;ChipScreenInit()&e.code; function should initialise the
-    &s.code;CloseScreen&e.code; and &s.code;SaveScreen&e.code; fields
-    of &s.code;pScreen&e.code;.  The old value of
-    &s.code;pScreen-&gt;CloseScreen&e.code; should be saved as part of
-    the driver's per-screen private data, allowing it to be called from
-    &s.code;ChipCloseScreen()&e.code;.  This means that the existing
-    &s.code;CloseScreen()&e.code; function is wrapped.
-
-<sect1>Finalising RAC Initialisation
-<p>
-
-    After all the &s.code;ChipScreenInit()&e.code; functions have been
-    called, each screen has registered its RAC requirements.  This
-    information is used to determine which shared resources are requested
-    by more than one driver and set the access functions accordingly.
-    This is done following these rules:
-
-    <enum>
-     <item>The sharable resources registered by each entity are compared.
-	If a resource is registered by more than one entity the entity
-	will be marked to indicate that it needs to share this resources
-	type (IO or MEM).
-
-     <item>A resource marked ``disabled'' during OPERATING state will be
-        ignored entirely.
-
-     <item>A resource marked ``unused'' will only conflict with an overlapping
-	resource of an other entity if the second is actually in use
-	during OPERATING state.
-
-     <item>If an ``unused'' resource was found to conflict but the entity
-	does not use any other resource of this type the entire resource
-	type will be disabled for that entity.
-    </enum>
-
-
-<sect1>Finishing InitOutput()
-<p>
-
-    At this point &s.code;InitOutput()&e.code; is finished, and all the
-    screens have been setup in their initial video mode.
-
-
-<sect1>Mode Switching
-<p>
-
-    When a SwitchMode event is received, &s.code;ChipSwitchMode()&e.code;
-    is called (when it exists):
-
-    <quote><p>
-    &s.code;Bool ChipSwitchMode(int index, DisplayModePtr mode, int flags)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      Initialises the new mode for the screen identified by
-      &s.code;index;&e.code;.  The viewport may need to be adjusted
-      also.
-
-    </quote>
-    </quote>
-
-
-<sect1>Changing Viewport
-<p>
-
-    When a Change Viewport event is received,
-    &s.code;ChipAdjustFrame()&e.code; is called (when it exists):
-
-    <quote><p>
-    &s.code;void ChipAdjustFrame(int index, int x, int y, int flags)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      Changes the viewport for the screen identified by
-      &s.code;index;&e.code;.
-
-      It should be noted that many chipsets impose restrictions on where the
-      viewport may be placed in the virtual resolution, either for alignment
-      reasons, or to prevent the start of the viewport from being positioned
-      within a pixel (as can happen in a 24bpp mode).  After calculating the
-      value the chipset's panning registers need to be set to for non-DGA
-      modes, this function should recalculate the ScrnInfoRec's
-      &s.code;frameX0&e.code;, &s.code;frameY0&e.code, &s.code;frameX1&e.code;
-      and &s.code;frameY1&e.code; fields to correspond to that value.  If
-      this is not done, switching to another mode might cause the position
-      of a hardware cursor to change.

-
-
-<sect1>VT Switching
-<p>
-
-    When a VT switch event is received, &s.code;xf86VTSwitch()&e.code;
-    is called.  &s.code;xf86VTSwitch()&e.code; does the following:
-

-    <quote><p>
-      This function should initialise the current video mode and
-      initialise the viewport, turn on the HW cursor if appropriate,
-      etc.
-
-      Should it re-save the video state before initialising the video
-      mode?
-
-    </quote>
-
-    &s.code;void ChipLeaveVT(int index, int flags)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      This function should restore the saved video state.  If
-      appropriate it should also turn off the HW cursor, and invalidate
-      any pixmap/font caches.
-
-    </quote>
-
-    Optionally, &s.code;ChipLeaveVT()&e.code; may also unmap memory
-    regions.  If so, &s.code;ChipEnterVT()&e.code; will need to remap
-    them.  Additionally, if an aperture used to access video memory is
-    unmapped and remapped in this fashion, &s.code;ChipEnterVT()&e.code;
-    will also need to notify the framebuffer layers of the aperture's new
-    location in virtual memory.  This is done with a call to the screen's
-    &s.code;ModifyPixmapHeader()&e.code; function, as follows
-
-    <quote><p>
-    &s.code;(*pScreen->ModifyPixmapHeader)(pScrn->ppix,
-        &f.indent;-1, -1, -1, -1, -1, <it>NewApertureAddress</it>);&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-        where the &s.code``ppix''&e.code; field in a ScrnInfoRec
-        points to the pixmap used by the screen's
-        &s.code;SaveRestoreImage()&e.code; function to hold the screen's
-        contents while switched out.
-
-    </quote>
-    </quote>
-
-    Currently, aperture remapping, as described here, should not be
-    attempted if the driver uses the &s.code;xf8_16bpp&e.code; or
-    &s.code;xf8_32bpp&e.code; framebuffer layers.  A pending
-    restructuring of VT switching will address this restriction in
-    the near future.
-
-    </quote>
-
-    Other layers may wrap the &s.code;ChipEnterVT()&e.code; and
-    &s.code;ChipLeaveVT()&e.code; functions if they need to take some
-    action when these events are received.
-
-<sect1>End of server generation
-<p>
-
-    At the end of each server generation, the DIX layer calls
-    &s.code;ChipCloseScreen()&e.code; for each screen:
-
-    <quote><p>
-    &s.code;Bool ChipCloseScreen(int index, ScreenPtr pScreen)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      This function should restore the saved video state and unmap the
-      memory regions.
-
-      It should also free per-screen data structures allocated by the
-      driver.  Note that the persistent data held in the
-      &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code;'s &s.code;driverPrivate&e.code; field
-      should not be freed here because it is needed by subsequent server
-      generations.
-
-      The &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code;'s &s.code;vtSema&e.code; field
-      should be set to &s.code;FALSE&e.code; once the video HW state
-      has been restored.
-
-      Before freeing the per-screen driver data the saved
-      &s.code;CloseScreen&e.code; value should be restored to
-      &s.code;pScreen-&gt;CloseScreen&e.code;, and that function should
-      be called after freeing the data.

-<sect>Optional Driver Functions
-<p>
-
-The functions outlined here can be called from the XFree86 common layer,
-but their presence is optional.
-
-<sect1>Mode Validation
-<p>
-
-    When a mode validation helper supplied by the XFree86-common layer is
-    being used, it can be useful to provide a function to check for hw
-    specific mode constraints:
-
-    <quote><p>
-    &s.code;ModeStatus ChipValidMode(int index, DisplayModePtr mode,
-                   &f.indent;Bool verbose, int flags)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      Check the passed mode for hw-specific constraints, and return the
-      appropriate status value.
-
-    </quote>
-    </quote>
-
-<p>
-This function may also modify the effective timings and clock of the passed
-mode.  These have been stored in the mode's &s.code;Crtc*&e.code; and
-&s.code;SynthClock&e.code; elements, and have already been adjusted for
-interlacing, doublescanning, multiscanning and clock multipliers and dividers.
-The function should not modify any other mode field, unless it wants to modify
-the mode timings reported to the user by &s.code;xf86PrintModes()&e.code;.
-
-<p>
-The function is called once for every mode in the xorg.conf Monitor section
-assigned to the screen, with &s.code;flags&e.code; set to
-&s.code;MODECHECK_INITIAL&e.code;.  It is subsequently called for every mode
-in the xorg.conf Display subsection assigned to the screen, with
-&s.code;flags&e.code; set to &s.code;MODECHECK_FINAL&e.code;.  In the second
-case, the mode will have successfully passed all other tests.  In addition,
-the &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code;'s &s.code;virtualX&e.code;,
-&s.code;virtualY&e.code; and &s.code;displayWidth&e.code; fields will have been
-set as if the mode to be validated were to be the last mode accepted.
-
-<p>
-In effect, calls with MODECHECK_INITIAL are intended for checks that do not
-depend on any mode other than the one being validated, while calls with
-MODECHECK_FINAL are intended for checks that may involve more than one mode.
-
-<sect1>Free screen data
-<p>
-
-    When a screen is deleted prior to the completion of the ScreenInit

-<sect1>Data handling
-<p>
-
-Config file data contains parts that are global, and parts that are
-Screen specific.  All of it is parsed into data structures that neither
-the drivers or most other parts of the server need to know about.
-
-The global data is typically not required by drivers, and as such, most
-of it is stored in the private &s.code;xf86InfoRec&e.code;.
-
-The screen-specific data collected from the config file is stored in
-screen, device, display, monitor-specific data structures that are separate
-from the &s.code;ScrnInfoRecs&e.code;, with the appropriate elements/fields
-hooked into the &s.code;ScrnInfoRecs&e.code; as required.  The screen
-config data is held in &s.code;confScreenRec&e.code;, device data in
-the &s.code;GDevRec&e.code;, monitor data in the &s.code;MonRec&e.code;,
-and display data in the &s.code;DispRec&e.code;.
-
-The XFree86 common layer's screen specific data (the actual data in use
-for each screen) is held in the &s.code;ScrnInfoRecs&e.code;.  As has
-been outlined above, the &s.code;ScrnInfoRecs&e.code; are allocated at probe
-time, and it is the responsibility of the Drivers' &s.code;Probe()&e.code;
-and &s.code;PreInit()&e.code; functions to finish filling them in based
-on both data provided on the command line and data provided from the
-Config file.  The precedence for this is:
-
-    <quote>
-    command line  -&gt;  config file  -&gt;  probed/default data
-    </quote>
-
-For most things in this category there are helper functions that the
-drivers can use to ensure that the above precedence is consistently
-used.
-
-As well as containing screen-specific data that the XFree86 common layer
-(including essential parts of the server infrastructure as well as helper
-functions) needs to access, it also contains some data that drivers use
-internally.  When considering whether to add a new field to the
-&s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code;, consider the balance between the convenience
-of things that lots of drivers need and the size/obscurity of the
-&s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code;.
-
-Per-screen driver specific data that cannot be accommodated with the
-static &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code; fields is held in a driver-defined
-data structure, a pointer to which is assigned to the
-&s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code;'s &s.code;driverPrivate&e.code; field.  This
-is per-screen data that persists across server generations (as does the
-bulk of the static &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code; data).  It would typically
-also include the video card's saved state.
-
-Per-screen data for other modules that the driver uses (for example,
-the XAA module) that is reset for each server generation is hooked into
-the &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code; through it's &s.code;privates&e.code;
-field.
-
-Once it has stabilised, the data structures and variables accessible to
-video drivers will be documented here.  In the meantime, those things
-defined in the &s.code;xf86.h&e.code; and &s.code;xf86str.h&e.code;
-files are visible to video drivers.  Things defined in
-&s.code;xf86Priv.h&e.code; and &s.code;xf86Privstr.h&e.code; are NOT
-intended to be visible to video drivers, and it is an error for a driver
-to include those files.

-<sect1>Allocating private data
-<p>
-
-A driver and any module it uses may allocate per-screen private storage
-in either the &s.code;ScreenRec&e.code; (DIX level) or
-&s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code; (XFree86 common layer level).
-&s.code;ScreenRec&e.code; storage persists only for a single server
-generation, and &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code; storage persists across
-generations for the lifetime of the server.
-
-The &s.code;ScreenRec&e.code; &s.code;devPrivates&e.code; data must be
-reallocated/initialised at the start of each new generation.  This is
-normally done from the &s.code;ChipScreenInit()&e.code; function, and
-Init functions for other modules that it calls.  Data allocated in this
-way should be freed by the driver's &s.code;ChipCloseScreen()&e.code;
-functions, and Close functions for other modules that it calls.  A new
-&s.code;devPrivates&e.code; entry is allocated by calling the
-&s.code;AllocateScreenPrivateIndex()&e.code; function.
-
-    <quote><p>
-    &s.code;int AllocateScreenPrivateIndex()&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      This function allocates a new element in the
-      &s.code;devPrivates&e.code; field of all currently existing
-      &s.code;ScreenRecs&e.code;.  The return value is the index of this
-      new element in the &s.code;devPrivates&e.code; array.  The
-      &s.code;devPrivates&e.code; field is of type
-      &s.code;DevUnion&e.code;:
-
-	<verb>
-        typedef union _DevUnion {
-            pointer             ptr;
-            long                val;
-            unsigned long       uval;
-            pointer             (*fptr)(void);
-        } DevUnion;
-	</verb>
-
-      which allows the element to be used for any of the above types.
-      It is commonly used as a pointer to data that the caller allocates
-      after the new index has been allocated.
-
-      This function will return &s.code;-1&e.code; when there is an
-      error allocating the new index.

-    </quote>
-
-The &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code; &s.code;privates&e.code; data persists
-for the life of the server, so only needs to be allocated once.  This
-should be done from the &s.code;ChipPreInit()&e.code; function, and Init
-functions for other modules that it calls.  Data allocated in this way
-should be freed by the driver's &s.code;ChipFreeScreen()&e.code; functions,
-and Free functions for other modules that it calls.  A new
-&s.code;privates&e.code; entry is allocated by calling the
-&s.code;xf86AllocateScrnInfoPrivateIndex()&e.code; function.
-
-
-    <quote><p>
-    &s.code;int xf86AllocateScrnInfoPrivateIndex()&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      This function allocates a new element in the &s.code;privates&e.code;
-      field of all currently existing &s.code;ScrnInfoRecs&e.code;.
-      The return value is the index of this new element in the
-      &s.code;privates&e.code; array.  The &s.code;privates&e.code;

-
-      which allows the element to be used for any of the above types.
-      It is commonly used as a pointer to data that the caller allocates
-      after the new index has been allocated.
-
-      This function will not return when there is an error allocating
-      the new index.  When there is an error it will cause the server
-      to exit with a fatal error.  The similar function for allocation
-      privates in the &s.code;ScreenRec&e.code;
-      (&s.code;AllocateScreenPrivateIndex()&e.code;) differs in this
-      respect by returning &s.code;-1&e.code; when the allocation fails.

-<sect>Keeping Track of Bus Resources<label id="rac">
-<p>
-
-<sect1>Theory of Operation
-<p>
-
-The XFree86 common layer has knowledge of generic access control mechanisms
-for devices on certain bus systems (currently the PCI bus) as well as
-of methods to enable or disable access to the buses itself.  Furthermore
-it can access information on resources decoded by these devices and if
-necessary modify it.
-
-When first starting the Xserver collects all this information, saves it
-for restoration, checks it for consistency, and if necessary, corrects
-it.  Finally it disables all resources on a generic level prior to
-calling any driver function.
-
-When the &s.code;Probe()&e.code; function of each driver is called the
-device sections are matched against the devices found in the system.
-The driver may probe devices at this stage that cannot be identified by
-using device independent methods.  Access to all resources that can be
-controlled in a device independent way is disabled.  The
-&s.code;Probe()&e.code; function should register all non-relocatable
-resources at this stage.  If a resource conflict is found between
-exclusive resources the driver will fail immediately.  Optionally the
-driver might specify an &s.code;EntityInit()&e.code;,
-&s.code;EntityLeave()&e.code; and &s.code;EntityEnter()&e.code; function.
-
-&s.code;EntityInit()&e.code; can be used to disable any shared resources
-that are not controlled by the generic access control functions.  It is
-called prior to the PreInit phase regardless if an entity is active or
-not.  When calling the &s.code;EntityInit()&e.code;,
-&s.code;EntityEnter()&e.code; and &s.code;EntityLeave()&e.code; functions
-the common level will disable access to all other entities on a generic
-level.  Since the common level has no knowledge of device specific
-methods to disable access to resources it cannot be guaranteed that
-certain resources are not decoded by any other entity until the
-&s.code;EntityInit()&e.code; or &s.code;EntityEnter()&e.code; phase is
-finished.  Device drivers should therefore register all those resources
-which they are going to disable.  If these resources are never to be
-used by any driver function they may be flagged &s.code;ResInit&e.code;
-so that they can be removed from the resource list after processing all
-&s.code;EntityInit()&e.code; functions.  &s.code;EntityEnter()&e.code;
-should disable decoding of all resources which are not registered as
-exclusive and which are not handled by the generic access control in
-the common level.  The difference to &s.code;EntityInit()&e.code; is
-that the latter one is only called once during lifetime of the server.
-It can therefore be used to set up variables prior to disabling resources.
-&s.code;EntityLeave()&e.code; should restore the original state when
-exiting the server or switching to a different VT.  It also needs to
-disable device specific access functions if they need to be disabled on
-server exit or VT switch.  The default state is to enable them before
-giving up the VT.
-
-In &s.code;PreInit()&e.code; phase each driver should check if any
-sharable resources it has registered during &s.code;Probe()&e.code; has
-been denied and take appropriate action which could simply be to fail.
-If it needs to access resources it has disabled during
-&s.code;EntitySetup()&e.code; it can do so provided it has registered
-these and will disable them before returning from
-&s.code;PreInit()&e.code;.  This also applies to all other driver
-functions.  Several functions are provided to request resource ranges,
-register these, correct PCI config space and add replacements for the
-generic access functions.  Resources may be marked ``disabled'' or
-``unused'' during OPERATING stage.  Although these steps could also be
-performed in &s.code;ScreenInit()&e.code;, this is not desirable.
-
-Following &s.code;PreInit()&e.code; phase the common level determines
-if resource access control is needed.  This is the case if more than
-one screen is used.  If necessary the RAC wrapper module is loaded.  In
-&s.code;ScreenInit()&e.code; the drivers can decide which operations
-need to be placed under RAC.  Available are the frame buffer operations,
-the pointer operations and the colormap operations.  Any operation that
-requires resources which might be disabled during OPERATING state should
-be set to use RAC.  This can be specified separately for memory and IO
-resources.
-
-When &s.code;ScreenInit()&e.code; phase is done the common level will
-determine which shared resources are requested by more than one driver
-and set the access functions accordingly.  This is done following these
-rules:
-
-<enum>
-<item>The sharable resources registered by each entity are compared.  If
-   a resource is registered by more than one entity the entity will be
-   marked to need to share this resources type (&s.code;IO&e.code; or
-   &s.code;MEM&e.code;).
-
-<item>A resource marked ``disabled'' during OPERATING state will be ignored
-   entirely.
-
-<item>A resource marked ``unused'' will only conflicts with an overlapping
-   resource of an other entity if the second is actually in use during
-   OPERATING state.
-
-<item>If an ``unused'' resource was found to conflict however the entity
-   does not use any other resource of this type the entire resource type
-   will be disabled for that entity.
-</enum>
-
-The driver has the choice among different ways to control access to
-certain resources:
-
-<enum>
-<item>It can rely on the generic access functions.  This is probably the
-   most common case.  Here the driver only needs to register any resource
-   it is going to use.
-
-<item>It can replace the generic access functions by driver specific
-   ones.  This will mostly be used in cases where no generic access
-   functions are available.  In this case the driver has to make sure
-   these resources are disabled when entering the &s.code;PreInit()&e.code;
-   stage.  Since the replacement functions are registered in
-   &s.code;PreInit()&e.code; the driver will have to enable these
-   resources itself if it needs to access them during this state.  The
-   driver can specify if the replacement functions can control memory
-   and/or I/O resources separately.
-
-<item>The driver can enable resources itself when it needs them.  Each
-   driver function enabling them needs to disable them before it will
-   return.  This should be used if a resource which can be controlled
-   in a device dependent way is only required during SETUP state.  This
-   way it can be marked ``unused'' during OPERATING state.
-</enum>
-
-A resource which is decoded during OPERATING state however never accessed
-by the driver should be marked unused.
-
-Since access switching latencies are an issue during Xserver operation,
-the common level attempts to minimize the number of entities that need
-to be placed under RAC control.  When a wrapped operation is called,
-the &s.code;EnableAccess()&e.code; function is called before control is
-passed on.  &s.code;EnableAccess()&e.code; checks if a screen is under
-access control.  If not it just establishes bus routing and returns.
-If the screen needs to be under access control,
-&s.code;EnableAccess()&e.code; determines which resource types
-(&s.code;MEM&e.code;, &s.code;IO&e.code;) are required.  Then it tests
-if this access is already established.  If so it simply returns.  If
-not it disables the currently established access, fixes bus routing and
-enables access to all entities registered for this screen.
-
-Whenever a mode switch or a VT-switch is performed the common level will
-return to SETUP state.
-
-<sect1>Resource Types
-<p>
-
-Resource have certain properties.  When registering resources each range
-is accompanied by a flag consisting of the ORed flags of the different
-properties the resource has.  Each resource range may be classified
-according to
-
-<itemize>
-  <item>its physical properties i.e., if it addresses
-       memory (&s.code;ResMem&e.code;)  or
-       I/O space (&s.code;ResIo&e.code;),
-  <item>if it addresses a
-       block (&s.code;ResBlock&e.code;) or
-       sparse (&s.code;ResSparse&e.code;)
-    range,
-  <item>its access properties.
-</itemize>
-
-There are two known access properties:
-
-<itemize>
-  <item>&s.code;ResExclusive&e.code;
-    for resources which may not be shared with any other device and
-  <item>&s.code;ResShared&e.code;
-    for resources which can be disabled and therefore can be shared.
-</itemize>
-
-If it is necessary to test a resource against any type a generic access
-type &s.code;ResAny&e.code; is provided.  If this is set the resource
-will conflict with any resource of a different entity intersecting its
-range.  Further it can be specified that a resource is decoded however
-never used during any stage (&s.code;ResUnused&e.code;) or during
-OPERATING state (&s.code;ResUnusedOpr&e.code;).  A resource only visible
-during the init functions (ie.  &s.code;EntityInit()&e.code;,
-&s.code;EntityEnter()&e.code; and &s.code;EntityLeave()&e.code; should
-be registered with the flag &s.code;ResInit&e.code;.  A resource that
-might conflict with background resource ranges may be flagged with
-&s.code;ResBios&e.code;.  This might be useful when registering resources
-ranges that were assigned by the system Bios.
-
-Several predefined resource lists are available for VGA and 8514/A
-resources in &s.code;common/xf86Resources.h&e.code;.
-
-<sect1>Available Functions<label id="avail">
-<p>
-
-The functions provided for resource management are listed in their order
-of use in the driver.
-
-
-<sect2>Probe Phase
-<p>
-
-In this phase each driver detects those resources it is able to drive,
-creates an entity record for each of them, registers non-relocatable
-resources and allocates screens and adds the resources to screens.
-
-Two helper functions are provided for matching device sections in the
-xorg.conf file to the devices:
-
-    <quote><p>
-    &s.code;int xf86MatchPciInstances(const char *driverName, int vendorID,
-		&f.indent;SymTabPtr chipsets, PciChipsets *PCIchipsets,
-                &f.indent;GDevPtr *devList, int numDevs, DriverPtr drvp,
-                &f.indent;int **foundEntities)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      This function finds matches between PCI cards that a driver supports
-      and config file device sections.  It is intended for use in the
-      &s.code;ChipProbe()&e.code; function of drivers for PCI cards.
-      Only probed PCI devices with a vendor ID matching
-      &s.code;vendorID&e.code; are considered.  &s.code;devList&e.code;
-      and &s.code;numDevs&e.code; are typically those found from
-      calling &s.code;xf86MatchDevice()&e.code;, and represent the active
-      config file device sections relevant to the driver.
-      &s.code;PCIchipsets&e.code; is a table that provides a mapping
-      between the PCI device IDs, the driver's internal chipset tokens
-      and a list of fixed resources.
-
-      When a device section doesn't have a &s.key;BusID&e.key; entry it
-      can only match the primary video device.  Secondary devices are
-      only matched with device sections that have a matching
-      &s.key;BusID&e.key; entry.
-
-      Once the preliminary matches have been found, a final match is
-      confirmed by checking if the chipset override, ChipID override or
-      probed PCI chipset type match one of those given in the
-      &s.code;chipsets&e.code; and &s.code;PCIchipsets&e.code; lists.
-      The &s.code;PCIchipsets&e.code; list includes a list of the PCI
-      device IDs supported by the driver.  The list should be terminated
-      with an entry with PCI ID &s.code;-1&e.code;".  The
-      &s.code;chipsets&e.code; list is a table mapping the driver's
-      internal chipset tokens to names, and should be terminated with
-      a &s.code;NULL&e.code; entry.  Only those entries with a
-      corresponding entry in the &s.code;PCIchipsets&e.code; list are
-      considered.  The order of precedence is: config file chipset,
-      config file ChipID, probed PCI device ID.
-
-      In cases where a driver handles PCI chipsets with more than one
-      vendor ID, it may set &s.code;vendorID&e.code; to
-      &s.code;0&e.code;, and OR each devID in the list with (the
-      vendor&nbsp;ID&nbsp;&lt;&lt;&nbsp;16).
-
-      Entity index numbers for confirmed matches are returned as an
-      array via &s.code;foundEntities&e.code;.  The PCI information,
-      chipset token and device section for each match are found in the
-      &s.code;EntityInfoRec&e.code; referenced by the indices.
-
-      The function return value is the number of confirmed matches.  A
-      return value of &s.code;-1&e.code; indicates an internal error.
-      The returned &s.code;foundEntities&e.code; array should be freed
-      by the driver with &s.code;xfree()&e.code; when it is no longer
-      needed in cases where the return value is greater than zero.

-The primary function for registration of resources is:
-    <quote><p>
-    &s.code;resPtr xf86RegisterResources(int entityIndex, resList list,
-			&f.indent;int access)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      This function tries to register the resources in
-      &s.code;list&e.code;.  If list is &s.code;NULL&e.code; it tries
-      to determine the resources automatically.  This only works for
-      entities that provide a generic way to read out the resource ranges
-      they decode.  So far this is only the case for PCI devices.  By
-      default the PCI resources are registered as shared
-      (&s.code;ResShared&e.code;) if the driver wants to set a different
-      access type it can do so by specifying the access flags in the
-      third argument.  A value of &s.code;0&e.code; means to use the
-      default settings.  If for any reason the resource broker is not
-      able to register some of the requested resources the function will
-      return a pointer to a list of the failed ones.  In this case the
-      driver may be able to move the resource to different locations.
-      In case of PCI bus entities this is done by passing the list of
-      failed resources to &s.code;xf86ReallocatePciResources()&e.code;.
-      When the registration succeeds, the return value is
-      &s.code;NULL&e.code;.
-
-    </quote>
-
-    &s.code;resPtr xf86ReallocatePciResources(int entityIndex, resPtr pRes)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      This function takes a list of PCI resources that need to be
-      reallocated and returns &s.code;NULL&e.code when all relocations are
-      successful.
-      &s.code;xf86RegisterResources()&e.code; should be called again to
-      register the relocated resources with the broker.
-      If the reallocation fails, a list of the resources that could not be

-      This function tries to find a block range of size

-      bound by &s.code;window_start&e.code; and &s.code;window_end&e.code;
-      with the alignment specified in &s.code;align_mask&e.code;.
-      Optionally a list of resource ranges which should be avoided within
-      the window can be supplied.  On failure a zero-length range of
-      type &s.code;ResEnd&e.code; will be returned.
-
-    </quote>
-    &s.code;resRange xf86GetSparse(long type, memType fixed_bits,
-			&f.indent;memType decode_mask, memType address_mask,
-			&f.indent;resPtr avoid)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      This function is like the previous one, but attempts to find a
-      sparse range instead of a block range.  Here three values have to
-      be specified: the &s.code;address_mask&e.code; which marks all
-      bits of the mask part of the address, the &s.code;decode_mask&e.code;
-      which masks out the bits which are hardcoded and are therefore
-      not available for relocation and the values of the fixed bits.
-      The function tries to find a base that satisfies the given condition.
-      If the function fails it will return a zero range of type
-      &s.code;ResEnd&e.code;.  Optionally it might be passed a list of
-      resource ranges to avoid.

-Some PCI devices are broken in the sense that they return invalid size
-information for a certain resource.  In this case the driver can supply
-the correct size and make sure that the resource range allocated for
-the card is large enough to hold the address range decoded by the card.
-The function &s.code;xf86FixPciResource()&e.code; can be used to do this:
-    <quote><p>
-    &s.code;Bool xf86FixPciResource(int entityIndex, unsigned int prt,
-				&f.indent;CARD32 alignment, long type)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      This function fixes a PCI resource allocation.  The
-      &s.code;prt&e.code; parameter contains the number of the PCI base
-      register that needs to be fixed (&s.code;0-5&e.code;, and
-      &s.code;6&e.code; for the BIOS base register).  The size is
-      specified by the alignment.  Since PCI resources need to span an
-      integral range of size &s.code;2^n&e.code;, the alignment also
-      specifies the number of addresses that will be decoded.  If the
-      driver specifies a type mask it can override the default type for
-      PCI resources which is &s.code;ResShared&e.code;.  The resource
-      broker needs to know that to find a matching resource range.  This
-      function should be called before calling
-      &s.code;xf86RegisterResources()&e.code;.  The return value is
-      &s.code;TRUE&e.code; when the function succeeds.

-      The driver can pass three functions: one for I/O access, one for
-      memory access and one for combined memory and I/O access.  If the
-      memory access and combined access functions are identical the
-      common level assumes that the memory access cannot be controlled
-      independently of I/O access, if the I/O access function and the
-      combined access functions are the same it is assumed that I/O can
-      not be controlled independently.  If memory and I/O have to be
-      controlled together all three values should be the same.  If a
-      non &s.code;NULL&e.code; value is passed as third argument it is
-      interpreted as an address where to store the old access record.
-      If the third argument is &s.code;NULL&e.code; it will be assumed
-      that the generic access should be enabled before replacing the
-      access functions.  Otherwise it will be disabled.  The driver may
-      enable them itself using the returned values.  It should do this
-      from its replacement access functions as the generic access may
-      be disabled by the common level on certain occasions.  If replacement
-      functions are specified they must control all resources of the
-      specific type registered for the entity.

-      Processes a list of options according to the information in the
-      array of &s.code;OptionInfoRecs&e.code; (&s.code;optinfo&e.code;).
-      The resulting information is stored in the &s.code;value&e.code;

-      &s.code;FALSE&e.code; otherwise.  The &s.code;type&e.code; field
-      is used to determine the expected value type for each option.
-      Each option in the list of options for which there is a name match
-      (but not necessarily a value type match) is marked as used.
-      Warning messages are printed when option values don't match the
-      types specified in the optinfo data.
-
-      NOTE: If this function is called before a driver's screen number
-      is known (e.g., from the &s.code;ChipProbe()&e.code; function) a
-      &s.code;scrnIndex&e.code; value of &s.code;-1&e.code; should be
-      used.
-
-      NOTE 2: Given that this function stores into the
-      &s.code;OptionInfoRecs&e.code; pointed to by &s.code;optinfo&e.code,
-      the caller should ensure the &s.code;OptionInfoRecs&e.code; are
-      (re-)initialised before the call, especially if the caller expects
-      to use the predefined option values as defaults.
-
-      The &s.code;OptionInfoRec&e.code; is defined as follows:
-
-      <verb>
-      typedef struct {
-          double freq;
-          int units;
-      } OptFrequency;

-      </verb>
-
-      &s.code;OPTV_FREQ&e.code; can be used for options values that are
-      frequencies.  These values are a floating point number with an
-      optional unit name appended.  The unit name can be one of "Hz",
-      "kHz", "k", "MHz", "M".  The multiplier associated with the unit
-      is stored in &s.code;freq.units&e.code;, and the scaled frequency
-      is stored in &s.code;freq.freq&e.code;.  When no unit is specified,
-      &s.code;freq.units&e.code; is set to &s.code;0&e.code;, and
-      &s.code;freq.freq&e.code; is unscaled.
-
-      &s.code;OPTV_PERCENT&e.code; can be used for option values that are
-      specified in percent (e.g. "20%"). These values are a floating point
-      number with a percent sign appended. If the percent sign is missing,
-      the parser will fail to match the value.
-
-      Typical usage is to setup an array of
-      &s.code;OptionInfoRecs&e.code; with all fields initialised.
-      The &s.code;value&e.code; and &s.code;found&e.code; fields get
-      set by &s.code;xf86ProcessOptions()&e.code;.  For cases where the
-      value parsing is more complex, the driver should specify
-      &s.code;OPTV_STRING&e.code;, and parse the string itself.  An
-      example of using this option handling is included in the
-      <ref id="sample" name="Sample Driver"> section.

-<sect>Offscreen Memory Manager
-<p>
-
-Management of offscreen video memory may be handled by the XFree86
-framebuffer manager.  Once the offscreen memory manager is running,
-drivers or extensions may allocate, free or resize areas of offscreen
-video memory using the following functions (definitions taken from
-&s.code;xf86fbman.h&e.code;):
-
-<code>
-    typedef struct _FBArea {
-        ScreenPtr    pScreen;
-        BoxRec       box;
-        int          granularity;
-        void         (*MoveAreaCallback)(struct _FBArea*, struct _FBArea*)
-        void         (*RemoveAreaCallback)(struct _FBArea*)
-        DevUnion     devPrivate;
-    } FBArea, *FBAreaPtr;
-
-    typedef void (*MoveAreaCallbackProcPtr)(FBAreaPtr from, FBAreaPtr to)
-    typedef void (*RemoveAreaCallbackProcPtr)(FBAreaPtr)
-
-    FBAreaPtr xf86AllocateOffscreenArea (
-        ScreenPtr pScreen,
-        int width, int height,
-        int granularity,
-        MoveAreaCallbackProcPtr MoveAreaCallback,
-        RemoveAreaCallbackProcPtr RemoveAreaCallback,
-        pointer privData
-    )
-
-    void xf86FreeOffscreenArea (FBAreaPtr area)
-
-    Bool xf86ResizeOffscreenArea (
-	FBAreaPtr area
-	int w, int h
-    )
-</code>
-
-The function:
-<quote>
-    &s.code;Bool xf86FBManagerRunning(ScreenPtr pScreen)&e.code;
-</quote>
-
-can be used by an extension to check if the driver has initialized
-the memory manager.  The manager is not available if this returns
-&s.code;FALSE&e.code; and the functions above will all fail.
-
-
-&s.code;xf86AllocateOffscreenArea()&e.code; can be used to request a
-rectangle of dimensions &s.code;width&e.code; x &s.code;height&e.code;
-(in pixels) from unused offscreen memory.  &s.code;granularity&e.code;
-specifies that the leftmost edge of the rectangle must lie on some
-multiple of &s.code;granularity&e.code; pixels.  A granularity of zero
-means the same thing as a granularity of one - no alignment preference.
-A &s.code;MoveAreaCallback&e.code; can be provided to notify the requester
-when the offscreen area is moved.  If no &s.code;MoveAreaCallback&e.code;
-is supplied then the area is considered to be immovable.  The
-&s.code;privData&e.code; field will be stored in the manager's internal
-structure for that allocated area and will be returned to the requester
-in the &s.code;FBArea&e.code; passed via the
-&s.code;MoveAreaCallback&e.code;.  An optional
-&s.code;RemoveAreaCallback&e.code; is provided.  If the driver provides
-this it indicates that the area should be allocated with a lower priority.
-Such an area may be removed when a higher priority request (one that
-doesn't have a &s.code;RemoveAreaCallback&e.code;) is made.  When this
-function is called, the driver will have an opportunity to do whatever
-cleanup it needs to do to deal with the loss of the area, but it must
-finish its cleanup before the function exits since the offscreen memory
-manager will free the area immediately after.
-
-&s.code;xf86AllocateOffscreenArea()&e.code; returns &s.code;NULL&e.code;
-if it was unable to allocate the requested area.  When no longer needed,
-areas should be freed with &s.code;xf86FreeOffscreenArea()&e.code;.
-
-&s.code;xf86ResizeOffscreenArea()&e.code; resizes an existing
-&s.code;FBArea&e.code;.  &s.code;xf86ResizeOffscreenArea()&e.code;
-returns &s.code;TRUE&e.code; if the resize was successful.  If
-&s.code;xf86ResizeOffscreenArea()&e.code; returns &s.code;FALSE&e.code;,
-the original &s.code;FBArea&e.code; is left unmodified.  Resizing an
-area maintains the area's original &s.code;granularity&e.code;,
-&s.code;devPrivate&e.code;, and &s.code;MoveAreaCallback&e.code;.
-&s.code;xf86ResizeOffscreenArea()&e.code; has considerably less overhead
-than freeing the old area then reallocating the new size, so it should
-be used whenever possible.

-
-&s.code;FullBox&e.code; represents the area of the framebuffer that the

-<sect>Colormap Handling<label id="cmap">
-<p>
-
-A generic colormap handling layer is provided within the XFree86 common
-layer.  This layer takes care of most of the details, and only requires
-a function from the driver that loads the hardware palette when required.
-To use the colormap layer, a driver calls the
-&s.code;xf86HandleColormaps()&e.code; function.

-    <quote><p>
-      This function must be called after the default colormap has been
-      initialised.  The &s.code;pScrn-&gt;gamma&e.code; field must also
-      be initialised, preferably by calling &s.code;xf86SetGamma()&e.code;.
-      &s.code;maxColors&e.code; is the number of entries in the palette.
-      &s.code;sigRGBbits&e.code; is the size in bits of each color
-      component in the DAC's palette.  &s.code;loadPalette&e.code;
-      is a driver-provided function for loading a colormap into the
-      hardware, and is described below.  &s.code;setOverscan&e.code; is
-      an optional function that may be provided when the overscan color
-      is an index from the standard LUT and when it needs to be adjusted
-      to keep it as close to black as possible.  The
-      &s.code;setOverscan&e.code; function programs the overscan index.
-      It shouldn't normally be used for depths other than 8.
-      &s.code;setOverscan&e.code; should be set to &s.code;NULL&e.code;
-      when it isn't needed.  &s.code;flags&e.code; may be set to the

-      present marks DPMS as being enabled for that screen.  The
-      &s.code;set&e.code; function is called whenever the DPMS level
-      changes, and is used to program the requested level.
-      &s.code;flags&e.code; is currently not used, and should be

-<sect>The Loader
-<p>
-
-This section describes the interfaces to the module loader.  The loader
-interfaces can be divided into two groups: those that are only available to
-the XFree86 common layer, and those that are also available to modules.
-
-<sect1>Loader Overview
-<p>
-
-The loader is capable of loading modules in a range of object formats,
-and knowledge of these formats is built in to the loader.  Knowledge of
-new object formats can be added to the loader in a straightforward
-manner.  This makes it possible to provide OS-independent modules (for
-a given CPU architecture type).  In addition to this, the loader can
-load modules via the OS-provided &s.code;dlopen(3)&e.code; service where
-available.  Such modules are not platform independent, and the semantics
-of &s.code;dlopen()&e.code; on most systems results in significant
-limitations in the use of modules of this type.  Support for
-&s.code;dlopen()&e.code; modules in the loader is primarily for
-experimental and development purposes.
-
-Symbols exported by the loader (on behalf of the core X server) to
-modules are determined at compile time.  Only those symbols explicitly
-exported are available to modules.  All external symbols of loaded
-modules are exported to other modules, and to the core X server.  The
-loader can be requested to check for unresolved symbols at any time,
-and the action to be taken for unresolved symbols can be controlled by
-the caller of the loader.  Typically the caller identifies which symbols
-can safely remain unresolved and which cannot.
-
-NOTE:  Now that ISO-C allows pointers to functions and pointers to data to
-have different internal representations, some of the following interfaces
-will need to be revisited.
-
-<sect1>Semi-private Loader Interface
-<p>
-
-The following is the semi-private loader interface that is available to the
-XFree86 common layer.
-
-  <quote><p>
-  &s.code;void LoaderInit(void)&e.code;
-  <quote><p>
-    The &s.code;LoaderInit()&e.code; function initialises the loader,
-    and it must be called once before calling any other loader functions.
-    This function initialises the tables of exported symbols, and anything
-    else that might need to be initialised.
-
-  </quote>
-
-  &s.code;void LoaderSetPath(const char *path)&e.code;
-  <quote><p>
-    The &s.code;LoaderSetPath()&e.code; function initialises a default
-    module search path.  This must be called if calls to other functions
-    are to be made without explicitly specifying a module search path.
-    The search path &s.code;path&e.code; must be a string of one or more
-    comma separated absolute paths.  Modules are expected to be located
-    below these paths, possibly in subdirectories of these paths.
-
-  </quote>
-
-  &s.code;pointer LoadModule(const char *module, const char *path,
-		&f.indent;const char **subdirlist, const char **patternlist,
-		&f.indent;pointer options, const XF86ModReqInfo * modreq,
-		&f.indent;int *errmaj, int *errmin)&e.code;
-  <quote><p>
-    The &s.code;LoadModule()&e.code; function loads the module called
-    &s.code;module&e.code;.  The return value is a module handle, and
-    may be used in future calls to the loader that require a reference
-    to a loaded module.  The module name &s.code;module&e.code; is
-    normally the module's canonical name, which doesn't contain any
-    directory path information, or any object/library file prefixes of
-    suffixes.  Currently a full pathname and/or filename is also accepted.
-    This might change.  The other parameters are:
-
-      &s.code;path&e.code;
-	<quote><p>
-		  An optional comma-separated list of module search paths.
-                  When &s.code;NULL&e.code;, the default search path is used.
-
-	</quote>
-
-      &s.code;subdirlist&e.code;
-	<quote><p>
-		  An optional &s.code;NULL&e.code; terminated list of
-		  subdirectories to search.  When &s.code;NULL&e.code;,
-		  the default built-in list is used (refer to
-		  &s.code;stdSubdirs&e.code; in &s.code;loadmod.c&e.code;).
-		  The default list is also substituted for entries in
-		  &s.code;subdirlist&e.code; with the value
-		  &s.code;DEFAULT_LIST&e.code;.  This makes is possible
-		  to augment the default list instead of replacing it.
-		  Subdir elements must be relative, and must not contain
-		  &s.code;".."&e.code;.  If any violate this requirement,
-		  the load fails.
-
-	</quote>
-
-      &s.code;patternlist&e.code;
-	<quote><p>
-		  An optional &s.code;NULL&e.code; terminated list of
-		  POSIX regular expressions used to connect module
-		  filenames with canonical module names.  Each regex
-		  should contain exactly one subexpression that corresponds
-		  to the canonical module name.  When &s.code;NULL&e.code;,
-		  the default built-in list is used (refer to
-		  &s.code;stdPatterns&e.code; in
-		  &s.code;loadmod.c&e.code;).  The default list is also
-		  substituted for entries in &s.code;patternlist&e.code;
-		  with the value &s.code;DEFAULT_LIST&e.code;.  This
-		  makes it possible to augment the default list instead
-		  of replacing it.
-
-	</quote>
-
-      &s.code;options&e.code;
-	<quote><p>
-		  An optional parameter that is passed to the newly
-		  loaded module's &s.code;SetupProc&e.code; function
-		  (if it has one).  This argument is normally a
-		  &s.code;NULL&e.code; terminated list of
-		  &s.code;Options&e.code;, and must be interpreted that
-		  way by modules loaded directly by the XFree86 common
-		  layer.  However, it may be used for application-specific
-		  parameter passing in other situations.
-
-		  When loading ``external'' modules (modules that don't
-		  have the standard entry point, for example a
-		  special shared library) the options parameter can be
-		  set to &s.code;EXTERN_MODULE&e.code; to tell the
-		  loader not to reject the module when it doesn't find
-		  the standard entry point.
-
-	</quote>
-
-      &s.code;modreq&e.code;
-	<quote><p>
-		  An optional &s.code;XF86ModReqInfo*&e.code; containing
-		  version/ABI/vendor information to requirements to
-		  check the newly loaded module against.  The main
-		  purpose of this is to allow the loader to verify that
-		  a module of the correct type/version before running
-		  its &s.code;SetupProc&e.code; function.
-
-		  The &s.code;XF86ModReqInfo&e.code; struct is defined
-		  as follows:
-<verb>
-typedef struct {
-	CARD8        majorversion;  /* MAJOR_UNSPEC */
-	CARD8        minorversion;  /* MINOR_UNSPEC */
-	CARD16       patchlevel;    /* PATCH_UNSPEC */
-	const char * abiclass;      /* ABI_CLASS_NONE */
-	CARD32       abiversion;    /* ABI_VERS_UNSPEC */
-	const char * moduleclass;   /* MOD_CLASS_NONE */
-} XF86ModReqInfo;
-</verb>
-
-		  The information here is compared against the equivalent
-		  information in the module's
-		  &s.code;XF86ModuleVersionInfo&e.code; record (which
-		  is described below).  The values in comments above
-		  indicate ``don't care'' settings for each of the fields.
-		  The comparisons made are as follows:
-
-                    &s.code;majorversion&e.code;
-			<quote><p>
-				   Must match the module's majorversion
-				   exactly.
-
-			</quote>
-                    &s.code;minorversion&e.code;
-			<quote><p>
-				   The module's minor version must be
-				   no less than this value.  This
-				   comparison is only made if
-				   &s.code;majorversion&e.code; is
-				   specified and matches.
-
-			</quote>
-                    &s.code;patchlevel&e.code;
-			<quote><p>
-				   The module's patchlevel must be no

-                    &s.code;abiversion&e.code;
-			<quote><p>
-				   Must be consistent with the module's

-
-	</quote>
-
-      &s.code;errmaj&e.code;
-	<quote><p>
-		  An optional pointer to a variable holding the major
-		  part or the error code.  When provided,
-		  &s.code;*errmaj&e.code; is filled in when
-		  &s.code;LoadModule()&e.code; fails.

-
-      &s.code;errmin&e.code;

-
-  &s.code;void UnloadModule(pointer mod)&e.code;
-  <quote><p>
-    This function unloads the module referred to by the handle mod.
-    All child modules are also unloaded recursively.  This function must
-    not be used to directly unload modules that are child modules (i.e.,

-
-<sect1>Module Requirements
-<p>
-
-Modules must provide information about themselves to the loader, and
-may optionally provide entry points for "setup" and "teardown" functions
-(those two functions are referred to here as &s.code;SetupProc&e.code;
-and &s.code;TearDownProc&e.code;).
-
-The module information is contained in the
-&s.code;XF86ModuleVersionInfo&e.code; struct, which is defined as follows:

-The module version information, and the optional &s.code;SetupProc&e.code;
-and &s.code;TearDownProc&e.code; entry points are found by the loader
-by locating a data object in the module called "modnameModuleData",
-where "modname" is the canonical name of the module.  Modules must
-contain such a data object, and it must be declared with global scope,
-be compile-time initialised, and is of the following type:
-

-
-The vers parameter must be initialised to a pointer to a correctly

-    When defined, this function is called by the loader after successfully

-    and are described above. When the &s.code;SetupProc&e.code; is
-    successful it must return a non-&s.code;NULL&e.code; value.  The
-    loader checks this, and if it is &s.code;NULL&e.code; it unloads
-    the module and reports the failure to the caller of
-    &s.code;LoadModule()&e.code;.  If the &s.code;SetupProc&e.code;
-    does things that need to be undone when the module is unloaded,
-    it should define a &s.code;TearDownProc&e.code;, and return a

-<sect1>Functions for printing messages
-<p>
-
-  <quote><p>
-    &s.code;ErrorF(const char *format, ...)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      This is the basic function for writing to the error log (typically
-      stderr and/or a log file).  Video drivers should usually avoid
-      using this directly in favour of the more specialised functions
-      described below.  This function is useful for printing messages
-      while debugging a driver.
-
-    </quote>
-
-    &s.code;FatalError(const char *format, ...)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      This prints a message and causes the Xserver to abort.  It should
-      rarely be used within a video driver, as most error conditions
-      should be flagged by the return values of the driver functions.
-      This allows the higher layers to decide how to proceed.  In rare
-      cases, this can be used within a driver if a fatal unexpected
-      condition is found.
-
-    </quote>
-
-    &s.code;xf86ErrorF(const char *format, ...)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      This is like &s.code;ErrorF()&e.code;, except that the message is
-      only printed when the Xserver's verbosity level is set to the
-      default (&s.code;1&e.code;) or higher.  It means that the messages
-      are not printed when the server is started with the
-      &s.cmd;-quiet&e.cmd; flag.  Typically this function would only be
-      used for continuing messages started with one of the more specialised
-      functions described below.

-
-    &s.code;xf86ErrorFVerb(int verb, const char *format, ...)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      Like &s.code;xf86ErrorF()&e.code;, except the minimum verbosity
-      level for which the message is to be printed is given explicitly.
-      Passing a &s.code;verb&e.code; value of zero means the message
-      is always printed.  A value higher than &s.code;1&e.code; can be
-      used for information would normally not be needed, but which might
-      be useful when diagnosing problems.

-
-    &s.code;xf86Msg(MessageType type, const char *format, ...)&e.code;
-    <quote><p>
-      This is like &s.code;xf86ErrorF()&e.code;, except that the message
-      is prefixed with a marker determined by the value of
-      &s.code;type&e.code;.  The marker is used to indicate the type of
-      message (warning, error, probed value, config value, etc).  Note
-      the &s.code;xf86Verbose&e.code; value is ignored for messages of

-
-    &s.code;xf86DrvMsg(int scrnIndex, MessageType type, const char *format, ...)&e.code;

-      clearly indicates which driver/screen the message is for.  If

-      NOTE: This function can only be used after the

-      fields:
-
-        &s.code;modePool&e.code;
-	<quote><p>

-
-      The first stage of this function checks that the
-      &s.code;virtualX&e.code; and &s.code;virtualY&e.code; values
-      supplied (if greater than zero) are consistent with the line pitch
-      and &s.code;maxHeight&e.code; limitations.  If not, an error
-      message is printed, and the return value is &s.code;-1&e.code;.
-
-      The second stage sets up the mode pool, eliminating immediately
-      any modes that exceed the driver's line pitch limits, and also
-      the virtual width and height limits (if greater than zero).  For
-      each mode removed an informational message is printed at verbosity
-      level &s.code;2&e.code;.  If the mode pool ends up being empty,
-      a warning message is printed, and the return value is
-      &s.code;0&e.code;.
-
-      The final stage is to lookup each mode name, and fill in the remaining
-      parameters.  If an error condition is encountered, a message is
-      printed, and the return value is &s.code;-1&e.code;.  Otherwise,
-      the return value is the number of valid modes found
-      (&s.code;0&e.code; if none are found).
-
-      Even if the supplied mode names include duplicates, no two names will
-      ever match the same mode.  Furthermore, if the supplied mode names do not
-      yield a valid mode (including the case where no names are passed at all),
-      the function will continue looking through the mode pool until it finds
-      a mode that survives all checks, or until the mode pool is exhausted.
-
-      A message is only printed by this function when a fundamental
-      problem is found.  It is intended that this function may be called
-      more than once if there is more than one set of constraints that
-      the driver can work within.
-
-      If this function returns &s.code;-1&e.code;, the
-      &s.code;ChipPreInit()&e.code; function should return
-      &s.code;FALSE&e.code;.
-
-      &s.code;clockRanges&e.code; is a linked list of clock ranges
-      allowed by the driver.  If a mode doesn't fit in any of the defined
-      &s.code;clockRanges&e.code;, it is rejected.  The first
-      &s.code;clockRange&e.code; that matches all requirements is used.
-      This structure needs to be initialized to NULL when allocated.
-
-      &s.code;clockRanges&e.code; contains the following fields:
-
-        &s.code;minClock&nl;
-        maxClock&e.code;
-	<quote><p>
-		The lower and upper mode clock bounds for which the rest
-		of the &s.code;clockRange&e.code; parameters apply.
-		Since these are the mode clocks, they are not scaled
-		with the &s.code;ClockMulFactor&e.code; and
-		&s.code;ClockDivFactor&e.code;.  It is up to the driver
-		to adjust these values if they depend on the clock
-		scaling factors.

-
-	</quote>
-        &s.code;ClockMulFactor&nl;
-        ClockDivFactor&e.code;
-	<quote><p>
-		Scaling factors that are applied to the mode clocks ONLY
-		before selecting a clock index (when there is no
-		programmable clock) or a &s.code;SynthClock&e.code;
-		value.  This is useful for drivers that support pixel
-		multiplexing or that need to scale the clocks because
-		of hardware restrictions (like sending 24bpp data to an
-		8 bit RAMDAC using a tripled clock).
-
-		Note that these parameters describe what must be done
-		to the mode clock to achieve the data transport clock
-		between graphics controller and RAMDAC.  For example
-		for &s.code;2:1&e.code; pixel multiplexing, two pixels
-		are sent to the RAMDAC on each clock.  This allows the
-		RAMDAC clock to be half of the actual pixel clock.
-		Hence, &s.code;ClockMulFactor=1&e.code; and
-		&s.code;ClockDivFactor=2&e.code;.  This means that the
-		clock used for clock selection (ie, determining the
-		correct clock index from the list of discrete clocks)
-		or for the &s.code;SynthClock&e.code; field in case of
-		a programmable clock is:  (&s.code;mode-&gt;Clock *
-		ClockMulFactor) / ClockDivFactor&e.code;.
-
-	</quote>
-	&s.code;PrivFlags&e.code;
-	<quote><p>
-		This field is copied into the
-		&s.code;mode-&gt;PrivFlags&e.code; field when this
-		&s.code;clockRange&e.code; is selected by
-		&s.code;xf86ValidateModes()&e.code;.  It allows the
-		driver to find out what clock range was selected, so it
-		knows it needs to set up pixel multiplexing or any other
-		range-dependent feature.  This field is purely
-		driver-defined: it may contain flag bits, an index or
-		anything else (as long as it is an &s.code;INT&e.code;).
-	</quote>
-
-      Note that the &s.code;mode-&gt;SynthClock&e.code; field is always
-      filled in by &s.code;xf86ValidateModes()&e.code;: it will contain
-      the ``data transport clock'', which is the clock that will have
-      to be programmed in the chip when it has a programmable clock, or
-      the clock that will be picked from the clocks list when it is not
-      a programmable one.  Thus:
-
-         &s.code;mode-&gt;SynthClock =

-
-    The public data structures used by the vgahw module are

-      This function allocates a &s.code;vgaHWRec&e.code; structure, and

-      from the driver's &s.code;ChipPreInit()&e.code; function.  The
-      &s.code;vgaHWRec&e.code; is zero-allocated, and the following

-
-        &s.code;ModeReg.DAC[]&e.code;

-      in such a way that when the standard VGA I/O port value is added
-      to it the correct offset into the MMIO area results.  That means
-      that these functions are only suitable when the VGA I/O ports are
-      made available in a direct mapping to the MMIO space.  If that is

-<sect1>VGA Register Access Functions
-<p>
-
-    The vgahw module abstracts access to the standard VGA registers by
-    using a set of functions held in the &s.code;vgaHWRec&e.code;.  When
-    the &s.code;vgaHWRec&e.code; is created these function pointers are
-    initialised with the set of standard VGA I/O register access functions.
-    In addition to these, the vgahw module includes a basic set of MMIO
-    register access functions, and the &s.code;vgaHWRec&e.code; function
-    pointers can be initialised to these by calling the
-    &s.code;vgaHWSetMmioFuncs()&e.code; function described above.  Some
-    drivers/platforms may require a different set of functions for VGA
-    access.  The access functions are described here.

-<sect>Some notes about writing a driver<label id="sample">
-<p>
-
-<em>NOTE: some parts of this are not up to date</em>
-
-The following is an outline for writing a basic unaccelerated driver
-for a PCI video card with a linear mapped framebuffer, and which has a
-VGA core.  It is includes some general information that is relevant to
-most drivers (even those which don't fit that basic description).
-
-The information here is based on the initial conversion of the Matrox
-Millennium driver to the ``new design''.  For a fleshing out and sample
-implementation of some of the bits outlined here, refer to that driver.
-Note that this is an example only.  The approach used here will not be
-appropriate for all drivers.
-
-Each driver must reserve a unique driver name, and a string that is used
-to prefix all of its externally visible symbols.  This is to avoid name
-space clashes when loading multiple drivers.  The examples here are for
-the ``ZZZ'' driver, which uses the ``ZZZ'' or ``zzz'' prefix for its externally
-visible symbols.
-
-
-<sect1>Include files
-<p>
-
-  All drivers normally include the following headers:
-  <quote>
-    &s.code;"xf86.h"&nl;
-    "xf86_OSproc.h"&nl;
-    "xf86_ansic.h"&nl;
-    "xf86Resources.h"&e.code;
-  </quote>
-  Wherever inb/outb (and related things) are used the following should be
-  included:
-  <quote>
-    &s.code;"compiler.h"&e.code;
-  </quote>
-  Note: in drivers, this must be included after &s.code;"xf86_ansic.h"&e.code;.
-
-  Drivers that need to access PCI vendor/device definitions need this:
-  <quote>
-    &s.code;"xf86PciInfo.h"&e.code;
-  </quote>
-
-  Drivers that need to access the PCI config space need this:
-  <quote>
-    &s.code;"xf86Pci.h"&e.code;
-  </quote>
-
-  Drivers using the mi banking wrapper need:
-
-  <quote>
-    &s.code;"mibank.h"&e.code;
-  </quote>
-
-  Drivers that initialise a SW cursor need this:
-  <quote>
-    &s.code;"mipointer.h"&e.code;
-  </quote>
-
-  All drivers implementing backing store need this:
-  <quote>
-    &s.code;"mibstore.h"&e.code;
-  </quote>
-
-  All drivers using the mi colourmap code need this:
-  <quote>
-    &s.code;"micmap.h"&e.code;
-  </quote>
-
-  If a driver uses the vgahw module, it needs this:
-  <quote>
-    &s.code;"vgaHW.h"&e.code;
-  </quote>
-
-  Drivers supporting VGA or Hercules monochrome screens need:
-  <quote>
-    &s.code;"xf1bpp.h"&e.code;
-  </quote>
-
-  Drivers supporting VGA or EGC 16-colour screens need:
-  <quote>
-    &s.code;"xf4bpp.h"&e.code;
-  </quote>
-
-  Drivers using cfb need:
-  <quote>
-    &s.code;#define PSZ 8&nl;
-    #include "cfb.h"&nl;
-    #undef PSZ&e.code;
-  </quote>
-
-  Drivers supporting bpp 16, 24 or 32 with cfb need one or more of:
-  <quote>
-    &s.code;"cfb16.h"&nl;
-    "cfb24.h"&nl;
-    "cfb32.h"&e.code;
-  </quote>
-
-  The driver's own header file:
-  <quote>
-    &s.code;"zzz.h"&e.code;
-  </quote>
-
-  Drivers must NOT include the following:
-
- <quote>
-    &s.code;"xf86Priv.h"&nl;
-    "xf86Privstr.h"&nl;
-    "xf86_libc.h"&nl;

-    any OS header
- </quote>
-
-
-<sect1>Data structures and initialisation
-<p>
-
-<itemize>
-  <item>The following macros should be defined:
-    <code>
-#define VERSION <version-as-an-int>
-#define ZZZ_NAME "ZZZ"         /* the name used to prefix messages */
-#define ZZZ_DRIVER_NAME "zzz"  /* the driver name as used in config file */
-#define ZZZ_MAJOR_VERSION <int>
-#define ZZZ_MINOR_VERSION <int>
-#define ZZZ_PATCHLEVEL    <int>
-    </code>
-<p>
-    NOTE: &s.code;ZZZ_DRIVER_NAME&e.code; should match the name of the
-    driver module without things like the "lib" prefix, the "_drv" suffix
-    or filename extensions.
-<p>
-
-  <item>A DriverRec must be defined, which includes the functions required
-    at the pre-probe phase.  The name of this DriverRec must be an
-    upper-case version of ZZZ_DRIVER_NAME (for the purposes of static
-    linking).
-<p>
-    <code>
-DriverRec ZZZ = {
-    VERSION,
-    ZZZ_DRIVER_NAME,
-    ZZZIdentify,
-    ZZZProbe,
-    ZZZAvailableOptions,
-    NULL,
-    0
-};
-    </code>
-
-  <item>Define list of supported chips and their matching ID:
-<p>
-    <code>
-static SymTabRec ZZZChipsets[] = {
-    { PCI_CHIP_ZZZ1234, "zzz1234a" },
-    { PCI_CHIP_ZZZ5678, "zzz5678a" },
-    { -1,               NULL }
-};
-    </code>
-<p>
-    The token field may be any integer value that the driver may use to
-    uniquely identify the supported chipsets.  For drivers that support
-    only PCI devices using the PCI device IDs might be a natural choice,
-    but this isn't mandatory.  For drivers that support both PCI and other
-    devices (like ISA), some other ID should probably used.  When other
-    IDs are used as the tokens it is recommended that the names be
-    defined as an &s.code;enum&e.code; type.
-<p>
-  <item>If the driver uses the &s.code;xf86MatchPciInstances(&e.code;)
-    helper (recommended for drivers that support PCI cards) a list that
-    maps PCI IDs to chip IDs and fixed resources must be defined:
-<p>
-    <code>
-static PciChipsets ZZZPciChipsets[] = {
-    { PCI_CHIP_ZZZ1234, PCI_CHIP_ZZZ1234, RES_SHARED_VGA },
-    { PCI_CHIP_ZZZ5678, PCI_CHIP_ZZZ5678, RES_SHARED_VGA },
-    { -1,               -1,               RES_UNDEFINED }
-}
-    </code>
-<p>
-  <item>Define the &s.code;XF86ModuleVersionInfo&e.code; struct for the
-    driver.  This is required for the dynamically loaded version:
-<p>
-    <code>
-static XF86ModuleVersionInfo zzzVersRec =
-{
-    "zzz",
-    MODULEVENDORSTRING,
-    MODINFOSTRING1,
-    MODINFOSTRING2,
-    XF86_VERSION_CURRENT,
-    ZZZ_MAJOR_VERSION, ZZZ_MINOR_VERSION, ZZZ_PATCHLEVEL,
-    ABI_CLASS_VIDEODRV,
-    ABI_VIDEODRV_VERSION,
-    MOD_CLASS_VIDEODRV,
-    {0,0,0,0}
-};
-    </code>
-<p>
-  <item>Define a data structure to hold the driver's screen-specific data.
-    This must be used instead of global variables.  This would be defined
-    in the &s.code;"zzz.h"&e.code; file, something like:
-<p>
-    <code>
-typedef struct {
-    type1  field1;
-    type2  field2;
-    int    fooHack;
-    Bool   pciRetry;
-    Bool   noAccel;
-    Bool   hwCursor;
-    CloseScreenProcPtr CloseScreen;
-    OptionInfoPtr Options;
-    ...
-} ZZZRec, *ZZZPtr;
-    </code>
-<p>
-  <item>Define the list of config file Options that the driver accepts.  For
-    consistency between drivers those in the list of ``standard'' options
-    should be used where appropriate before inventing new options.
-<p>
-    <code>
-typedef enum {
-    OPTION_FOO_HACK,
-    OPTION_PCI_RETRY,
-    OPTION_HW_CURSOR,
-    OPTION_NOACCEL
-} ZZZOpts;
-
-static const OptionInfoRec ZZZOptions[] = {
-  { OPTION_FOO_HACK,  "FooHack",   OPTV_INTEGER, {0}, FALSE },
-  { OPTION_PCI_RETRY, "PciRetry",  OPTV_BOOLEAN, {0}, FALSE },
-  { OPTION_HW_CURSOR, "HWcursor",  OPTV_BOOLEAN, {0}, FALSE },
-  { OPTION_NOACCEL,   "NoAccel",   OPTV_BOOLEAN, {0}, FALSE },
-  { -1,               NULL,        OPTV_NONE,    {0}, FALSE }
-};
-    </code>
-<p>
-</itemize>
-
-<sect1>Functions
-<p>
-
-
-<sect2>SetupProc
-<p>
-
-    For dynamically loaded modules, a &s.code;ModuleData&e.code;
-    variable is required.  It is should be the name of the driver
-    prepended to "ModuleData".  A &s.code;Setup()&e.code; function is
-    also required, which calls &s.code;xf86AddDriver()&e.code; to add
-    the driver to the main list of drivers.
-
-    <code>
-static MODULESETUPPROTO(zzzSetup);
-
-XF86ModuleData zzzModuleData = { &amp;zzzVersRec, zzzSetup, NULL };
-
-static pointer
-zzzSetup(pointer module, pointer opts, int *errmaj, int *errmin)
-{
-    static Bool setupDone = FALSE;

-
-    if (!setupDone) {

-         * The return value must be non-NULL on success even though
-         * there is no TearDownProc.
-         */
-        return (pointer)1;
-    } else {
-        if (errmaj) *errmaj = LDR_ONCEONLY;
-        return NULL;
-    }
-}
-    </code>
-
-<sect2>GetRec, FreeRec
-<p>
-
-    A function is usually required to allocate the driver's
-    screen-specific data structure and hook it into the
-    &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code;'s &s.code;driverPrivate&e.code; field.
-    The &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code;'s &s.code;driverPrivate&e.code; is
-    initialised to &s.code;NULL&e.code;, so it is easy to check if the
-    initialisation has already been done.  After allocating it, initialise
-    the fields.  By using &s.code;xnfcalloc()&e.code; to do the allocation
-    it is zeroed, and if the allocation fails the server exits.
-<p>
-    NOTE:
-    When allocating structures from inside the driver which are defined
-    on the common level it is important to initialize the structure to
-    zero.
-    Only this guarantees that the server remains source compatible to
-    future changes in common level structures.
-
-    <code>
-static Bool
-ZZZGetRec(ScrnInfoPtr pScrn)
-{
-    if (pScrn->driverPrivate != NULL)
-        return TRUE;
-    pScrn->driverPrivate = xnfcalloc(sizeof(ZZZRec), 1);
-    /* Initialise as required */
-    ...
-    return TRUE;
-}
-    </code>
-
-    Define a macro in &s.code;"zzz.h"&e.code; which gets a pointer to
-    the &s.code;ZZZRec&e.code; when given &s.code;pScrn&e.code;:
-
-    <code>
-#define ZZZPTR(p) ((ZZZPtr)((p)->driverPrivate))
-    </code>
-
-    Define a function to free the above, setting it to &s.code;NULL&e.code;
-    once it has been freed:
-
-    <code>
-static void
-ZZZFreeRec(ScrnInfoPtr pScrn)
-{
-    if (pScrn->driverPrivate == NULL)
-        return;
-    xfree(pScrn->driverPrivate);
-    pScrn->driverPrivate = NULL;
-}
-    </code>
-
-<sect2>Identify
-<p>
-
-    Define the &s.code;Identify()&e.code; function.  It is run before
-    the Probe, and typically prints out an identifying message, which
-    might include the chipsets it supports.  This function is mandatory:
-
-    <code>
-static void
-ZZZIdentify(int flags)
-{
-    xf86PrintChipsets(ZZZ_NAME, "driver for ZZZ Tech chipsets",
-                      ZZZChipsets);
-}
-    </code>
-
-<sect2>Probe
-<p>
-
-    Define the &s.code;Probe()&e.code; function.  The purpose of this
-    is to find all instances of the hardware that the driver supports,
-    and for the ones not already claimed by another driver, claim the
-    slot, and allocate a &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code;.  This should be
-    a minimal probe, and it should under no circumstances leave the
-    state of the hardware changed.  Because a device is found, don't
-    assume that it will be used.  Don't do any initialisations other
-    than the required &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code; initialisations.
-    Don't allocate any new data structures.
-
-    This function is mandatory.
-
-    NOTE: The &s.code;xf86DrvMsg()&e.code; functions cannot be used from
-    the Probe.

-<sect2>AvailableOptions
-<p>
-
-    Define the &s.code;AvailableOptions()&e.code; function. The purpose
-    of this is to return the available driver options back to the
-    -configure option, so that an xorg.conf file can be built and the
-    user can see which options are available for them to use.
-
-<sect2>PreInit
-<p>
-
-    Define the &s.code;PreInit()&e.code; function.  The purpose of
-    this is to find all the information required to determine if the
-    configuration is usable, and to initialise those parts of the
-    &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code; that can be set once at the beginning
-    of the first server generation.  The information should be found in
-    the least intrusive way possible.
-
-    This function is mandatory.
-
-    NOTES:
-    <enum>
-      <item>The &s.code;PreInit()&e.code; function is only called once
-	 during the life of the X server (at the start of the first
-	 generation).
-
-      <item>Data allocated here must be of the type that persists for
-	 the life of the X server.  This means that data that hooks into
-	 the &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code;'s &s.code;privates&e.code;
-	 field should be allocated here, but data that hooks into the
-	 &s.code;ScreenRec&e.code;'s &s.code;devPrivates&e.code; field
-	 should not be allocated here.  The &s.code;driverPrivate&e.code;
-	 field should also be allocated here.
-
-      <item>Although the &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code; has been allocated
-	 before this function is called, the &s.code;ScreenRec&e.code;
-	 has not been allocated.  That means that things requiring it
-	 cannot be used in this function.
-
-      <item>Very little of the &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code; has been
-	 initialised when this function is called.  It is important to
-	 get the order of doing things right in this function.

-
-    Define the &s.code;SwitchMode()&e.code; function if mode switching
-    is supported by the driver.
-
-    <code>

-
-    Define the &s.code;EnterVT()&e.code; and &s.code;LeaveVT()&e.code;
-    functions.
-
-    These functions are mandatory.
-
-    <code>
-static Bool

-    </code>
-
-<sect2>CloseScreen
-<p>
-
-    Define the &s.code;CloseScreen()&e.code; function:
-
-    This function is mandatory.  Note that it unwraps the previously
-    wrapped &s.code;pScreen-&gt;CloseScreen&e.code;, and finishes by
-    calling it.
-
-    <code>
-static Bool
-ZZZCloseScreen(int scrnIndex, ScreenPtr pScreen)

-
-<sect2>SaveScreen
-<p>
-
-    Define the &s.code;SaveScreen()&e.code; function (the screen
-    blanking function).  When using the vgahw module, this will typically
-    be:
-
-    <code>
-static Bool
-ZZZSaveScreen(ScreenPtr pScreen, int mode)
-{
-    return vgaHWSaveScreen(pScreen, mode);
-}
-    </code>
-
-    This function is mandatory.  Before modifying any hardware register
-    directly this function needs to make sure that the Xserver is active
-    by checking if &s.code;pScrn&e.code; is non-NULL and for
-    &s.code;pScrn->vtSema == TRUE&e.code;.
-
-<sect2>FreeScreen
-<p>
-
-    Define the &s.code;FreeScreen()&e.code; function.  This function
-    is optional.  It should be defined if the &s.code;ScrnInfoRec&e.code;
-    &s.code;driverPrivate&e.code; field is used so that it can be freed
-    when a screen is deleted by the common layer for reasons possibly
-    beyond the driver's control.  This function is not used in during
-    normal (error free) operation.  The per-generation data is freed by
-    the &s.code;CloseScreen()&e.code; function.
-
-    <code>
-static void
-ZZZFreeScreen(int scrnIndex, int flags)
-{
-    /*
-     * If the vgahw module is used vgaHWFreeHWRec() would be called
-     * here.
-     */
-    ZZZFreeRec(xf86Screens[scrnIndex]);

+    <title>The xorg.conf File</title>
+
+    <para>
+The xorg.conf file format is similar to the old format, with the following
+changes:
+    </para>
+
+    <sect2>
+      <title>&k.device; section</title>
+
+      <para>
+    The &k.device; sections are similar to what they used to be, and
+    describe hardware-specific information for a single video card.
+    &k.device;
+    Some new keywords are added:
+
+
+	<variablelist>
+	  <varlistentry><term>Driver "drivername"</term>
+	    <listitem><para>
+        Specifies the name of the driver to be used for the card.  This
+        is mandatory.
+	      </para></listitem></varlistentry>
+	  <varlistentry><term>BusID "busslot"</term>
+	    <listitem><para>
+        Specifies uniquely the location of the card on the bus.  The
+        purpose is to identify particular cards in a multi-headed
+        configuration.  The format of the argument is intentionally
+        vague, and may be architecture dependent.  For a PCI bus, it
+        is something like "bus:slot:func".
+	      </para></listitem></varlistentry>
+	</variablelist>
+      </para>
+
+      <para>
+    A &k.device; section is considered ``active'' if there is a reference
+    to it in an active &k.screen; section.
+      </para>
+    </sect2>
+
+    <sect2>
+      <title>&k.screen; section</title>
+
+      <para>
+    The &k.screen; sections are similar to what they used to be.  They
+    no longer have a &k.driver; keyword, but an &k.identifier; keyword
+    is added.  (The &k.driver; keyword may be accepted in place of the
+    &k.identifier; keyword for compatibility purposes.)  The identifier
+    can be used to identify which screen is to be active when multiple
+    &k.screen; sections are present.  It is possible to specify the active
+    screen from the command line.  A default is chosen in the absence
+    of one being specified.  A &k.screen; section is considered ``active''
+    if there is a reference to it either from the command line, or from
+    an active &k.serverlayout; section.
+      </para>
+    </sect2>
+
+    <sect2>
+      <title>&k.inputdevice; section</title>
+
+      <para>
+    The &k.inputdevice; section is a new section that describes
+    configuration information for input devices.  It replaces the old
+    <emphasis>Keyboard</emphasis>, <emphasis>Pointer</emphasis> and <emphasis>XInput</emphasis>
+    sections.  Like the &k.device; section, it has two mandatory keywords:
+    &k.identifier; and &k.driver;.  For compatibility purposes the old
+    <emphasis>Keyboard</emphasis> and <emphasis>Pointer</emphasis> sections are
+    converted by the parser into &k.inputdevice; sections as follows:
+
+	<variablelist>
+	  <varlistentry><term><emphasis>Keyboard</emphasis></term>
+	    <listitem><literallayout>
+             &k.identifier; "Implicit Core Keyboard"
+             &k.driver; "keyboard"
+	      </literallayout></listitem></varlistentry>
+	  <varlistentry><term><emphasis>Pointer</emphasis></term>
+	    <listitem><literallayout>
+             &k.identifier; "Implicit Core Pointer"
+             &k.driver; "mouse"
+	      </literallayout></listitem></varlistentry>
+	</variablelist>
+      </para>
+
+      <para>
+    An &k.inputdevice; section is considered active if there is a
+    reference to it in an active &k.serverlayout; section.  An
+    &k.inputdevice; section may also be referenced implicitly if there
+    is no &k.serverlayout; section, if the <option>-screen</option> command
+    line options is used, or if the &k.serverlayout; section doesn't
+    reference any &k.inputdevice; sections.  In this case, the first
+    sections with drivers "keyboard" and "mouse" are used as the core
+    keyboard and pointer respectively.
+      </para>
+    </sect2>
+
+    <sect2>
+      <title>&k.serverlayout; section</title>
+
+      <para>
+    The &k.serverlayout; section is a new section that is used to identify
+    which &k.screen; sections are to be used in a multi-headed configuration,
+    and the relative layout of those screens.  It also identifies which
+    &k.inputdevice; sections are to be used.  Each &k.serverlayout; section
+    has an identifier, a list of &k.screen; section identifiers, and a list of
+    &k.inputdevice; section identifiers.  &k.serverflags; options may also be
+    included in a &k.serverlayout; section, making it possible to override
+    the global values in the &k.serverflags; section.
+      </para>
+
+      <para>
+    A &k.serverlayout; section can be made active by being referenced on
+    the command line.  In the absence of this, a default will be chosen
+    (the first one found).  The screen names may optionally be followed
+    by a number specifying the preferred screen number, and optionally
+    by information specifying the physical positioning of the screen,
+    either in absolute terms or relative to another screen (or screens).
+    When no screen number is specified, they are numbered according to
+    the order in which they are listed.  The old (now obsolete) method
+    of providing the positioning information is to give the names of
+    the four adjacent screens.  The order of these is top, bottom, left,
+    right.  Here is an example of a &k.serverlayout; section for two
+    screens using the old method, with the second located to the right
+    of the first:
+
+	<programlisting>
+      Section "ServerLayout"
+        Identifier "Main Layout"
+        Screen     0 "Screen 1" ""  ""  ""  "Screen 2"
+        Screen     1 "Screen 2"
+        Screen     "Screen 3"
+      EndSection
+	</programlisting>
+      </para>
+
+      <para>
+    The preferred way of specifying the layout is to explicitly specify
+    the screen's location in absolute terms or relative to another
+    screen.
+      </para>
+
+      <para>
+    In the absolute case, the upper left corner's coordinates are given
+    after the <emphasis>Absolute</emphasis> keyword.  If the coordinates are
+    omitted, a value of <code>(0,0)</code> is assumed.  An example
+    of absolute positioning follows:
+
+	<programlisting>
+      Section "ServerLayout"
+        Identifier "Main Layout"
+        Screen     0 "Screen 1" Absolute 0 0
+        Screen     1 "Screen 2" Absolute 1024 0
+        Screen     "Screen 3" Absolute 2048 0
+      EndSection
+	</programlisting>
+      </para>
+
+      <para>
+    In the relative case, the position is specified by either using one of
+    the following keywords followed by the name of the reference screen:
+
+	<simplelist type='vert' columns='1'>
+	  <member><emphasis>RightOf</emphasis></member>
+	  <member><emphasis>LeftOf</emphasis></member>
+	  <member><emphasis>Above</emphasis></member>
+	  <member><emphasis>Below</emphasis></member>
+	  <member><emphasis>Relative</emphasis></member>
+	</simplelist>
+      </para>
+
+      <para>
+    When the <emphasis>Relative</emphasis> keyword is used, the reference screen
+    name is followed by the coordinates of the new screen's origin
+    relative to reference screen.  The following example shows how to use
+    some of the relative positioning options.
+
+	<programlisting>
+      Section "ServerLayout"
+        Identifier "Main Layout"
+        Screen     0 "Screen 1"
+        Screen     1 "Screen 2" RightOf "Screen 1"
+        Screen     "Screen 3" Relative "Screen 1" 2048 0
+      EndSection
+	</programlisting>
+      </para>
+    </sect2>
+
+    <sect2>
+      <title>Options</title>
+
+      <para>
+    Options are used more extensively.  They may appear in most sections
+    now.  Options related to drivers can be present in the &k.screen;,
+    &k.device; and &k.monitor; sections and the &k.display; subsections.
+    The order of precedence is &k.display;, &k.screen;, &k.monitor;,
+    &k.device;.  Options have been extended to allow an optional value
+    to be specified in addition to the option name.  For more details
+    about options, see the <link linkend="options">Options</link> section
+    for details.
+      </para>
+    </sect2>
+  </sect1>
+
+  <sect1>
+    <title>Driver Interface</title>
+
+    <para>
+The driver interface consists of a minimal set of entry points that are
+required based on the external events that the driver must react to.
+No non-essential structure is imposed on the way they are used beyond
+that.  This is a significant difference compared with the old design.
+    </para>
+
+    <para>
+The entry points for drawing operations are already taken care of by
+the framebuffer code (including, XAA).  Extensions and enhancements to
+framebuffer code are outside the scope of this document.
+    </para>
+
+    <para>
+This approach to the driver interface provides good flexibility, but does
+increase the complexity of drivers.  To help address this, the XFree86
+common layer provides a set of ``helper'' functions to take care of things
+that most drivers need.  These helpers help minimise the amount of code
+duplication between drivers.  The use of helper functions by drivers is
+however optional, though encouraged.  The basic philosophy behind the
+helper functions is that they should be useful to many drivers, that
+they should balance this against the complexity of their interface.  It
+is inevitable that some drivers may find some helpers unsuitable and
+need to provide their own code.
+    </para>
+
+    <para>
+Events that a driver needs to react to are:

+    <title>Resource Access Control Introduction</title>
+
+    <para>
+Graphics devices are accessed through ranges in I/O or memory space.
+While most modern graphics devices allow relocation of such ranges many
+of them still require the use of well established interfaces such as
+VGA memory and IO ranges or 8514/A IO ranges.  With modern buses (like
+PCI) it is possible for multiple video devices to share access to these
+resources.  The RAC (Resource Access Control) subsystem provides a
+mechanism for this.
+    </para>
+
+    <sect2>
+      <title>Terms and Definitions</title>
+
+      <sect3>
+	<title>Bus</title>
+
+	<para>
+    ``Bus'' is ambiguous as it is used for different things: it may refer
+    to physical incompatible extension connectors in a computer system.
+    The RAC system knows two such systems: The ISA bus and the PCI bus.
+    (On the software level EISA, MCA and VL buses are currently treated
+    like ISA buses).  ``Bus'' may also refer to logically different
+    entities on a single bus system which are connected via bridges.  A
+    PCI system may have several distinct PCI buses connecting each other
+    by PCI-PCI bridges or to the host CPU by HOST-PCI bridges.
+	</para>
+
+	<para>
+    Systems that host more than one bus system link these together using
+    bridges.  Bridges are a concern to RAC as they might block or pass
+    specific resources.  PCI-PCI bridges may be set up to pass VGA
+    resources to the secondary bus.  PCI-ISA buses pass any resources not

+    When a mode validation helper supplied by the XFree86-common layer is

+This function may also modify the effective timings and clock of the passed
+mode.  These have been stored in the mode's <structfield>Crtc*</structfield> and
+<structfield>SynthClock</structfield> elements, and have already been adjusted for
+interlacing, doublescanning, multiscanning and clock multipliers and dividers.
+The function should not modify any other mode field, unless it wants to modify
+the mode timings reported to the user by <function>xf86PrintModes()</function>.
+      </para>
+
+      <para>
+The function is called once for every mode in the xorg.conf Monitor section
+assigned to the screen, with <parameter>flags</parameter> set to
+<constant>MODECHECK_INITIAL</constant>.  It is subsequently called for every mode
+in the xorg.conf Display subsection assigned to the screen, with
+<parameter>flags</parameter> set to <constant>MODECHECK_FINAL</constant>.  In the second
+case, the mode will have successfully passed all other tests.  In addition,

+set as if the mode to be validated were to be the last mode accepted.

+In effect, calls with MODECHECK_INITIAL are intended for checks that do not

+The XFree86 common layer's screen specific data (the actual data in use

+time, and it is the responsibility of the Drivers' <function>Probe()</function>
+and <function>PreInit()</function> functions to finish filling them in based
+on both data provided on the command line and data provided from the

+As well as containing screen-specific data that the XFree86 common layer
+(including essential parts of the server infrastructure as well as helper

+Per-screen driver specific data that cannot be accommodated with the

+data structure, a pointer to which is assigned to the
+<structname>ScrnInfoRec</structname>'s <structfield>driverPrivate</structfield> field.  This
+is per-screen data that persists across server generations (as does the

+The XFree86 common layer has knowledge of generic access control mechanisms
+for devices on certain bus systems (currently the PCI bus) as well as
+of methods to enable or disable access to the buses itself.  Furthermore
+it can access information on resources decoded by these devices and if
+necessary modify it.
+      </para>
+
+      <para>
+When first starting the Xserver collects all this information, saves it
+for restoration, checks it for consistency, and if necessary, corrects
+it.  Finally it disables all resources on a generic level prior to
+calling any driver function.
+      </para>
+
+      <para>
+When the <function>Probe()</function> function of each driver is called the
+device sections are matched against the devices found in the system.
+The driver may probe devices at this stage that cannot be identified by
+using device independent methods.  Access to all resources that can be
+controlled in a device independent way is disabled.  The
+<function>Probe()</function> function should register all non-relocatable
+resources at this stage.  If a resource conflict is found between
+exclusive resources the driver will fail immediately.  Optionally the
+driver might specify an <function>EntityInit()</function>,
+<function>EntityLeave()</function> and <function>EntityEnter()</function> function.
+      </para>
+
+      <para>
+<function>EntityInit()</function> can be used to disable any shared resources
+that are not controlled by the generic access control functions.  It is
+called prior to the PreInit phase regardless if an entity is active or
+not.  When calling the <function>EntityInit()</function>,
+<function>EntityEnter()</function> and <function>EntityLeave()</function> functions
+the common level will disable access to all other entities on a generic
+level.  Since the common level has no knowledge of device specific
+methods to disable access to resources it cannot be guaranteed that
+certain resources are not decoded by any other entity until the
+<function>EntityInit()</function> or <function>EntityEnter()</function> phase is
+finished.  Device drivers should therefore register all those resources
+which they are going to disable.  If these resources are never to be
+used by any driver function they may be flagged <constant>ResInit</constant>
+so that they can be removed from the resource list after processing all
+<function>EntityInit()</function> functions.  <function>EntityEnter()</function>
+should disable decoding of all resources which are not registered as
+exclusive and which are not handled by the generic access control in
+the common level.  The difference to <function>EntityInit()</function> is
+that the latter one is only called once during lifetime of the server.

+In <function>PreInit()</function> phase each driver should check if any

+If it needs to access resources it has disabled during
+<function>EntitySetup()</function> it can do so provided it has registered
+these and will disable them before returning from
+<function>PreInit()</function>.  This also applies to all other driver
+functions.  Several functions are provided to request resource ranges,
+register these, correct PCI config space and add replacements for the
+generic access functions.  Resources may be marked ``disabled'' or
+``unused'' during OPERATING stage.  Although these steps could also be

+need to be placed under RAC.  Available are the frame buffer operations,
+the pointer operations and the colormap operations.  Any operation that

+   stage.  Since the replacement functions are registered in
+   <function>PreInit()</function> the driver will have to enable these

+Since access switching latencies are an issue during Xserver operation,
+the common level attempts to minimize the number of entities that need
+to be placed under RAC control.  When a wrapped operation is called,
+the <function>EnableAccess()</function> function is called before control is
+passed on.  <function>EnableAccess()</function> checks if a screen is under
+access control.  If not it just establishes bus routing and returns.
+If the screen needs to be under access control,
+<function>EnableAccess()</function> determines which resource types
+(<literal remap="tt">MEM</literal>, <literal remap="tt">IO</literal>) are required.  Then it tests
+if this access is already established.  If so it simply returns.  If
+not it disables the currently established access, fixes bus routing and
+enables access to all entities registered for this screen.

+      This function tries to register the resources in
+      <parameter>list</parameter>.  If list is <constant>NULL</constant> it tries
+      to determine the resources automatically.  This only works for
+      entities that provide a generic way to read out the resource ranges
+      they decode.  So far this is only the case for PCI devices.  By
+      default the PCI resources are registered as shared
+      (<constant>ResShared</constant>) if the driver wants to set a different
+      access type it can do so by specifying the access flags in the
+      third argument.  A value of <constant>0</constant> means to use the
+      default settings.  If for any reason the resource broker is not
+      able to register some of the requested resources the function will
+      return a pointer to a list of the failed ones.  In this case the
+      driver may be able to move the resource to different locations.
+      In case of PCI bus entities this is done by passing the list of
+      failed resources to <function>xf86ReallocatePciResources()</function>.
+      When the registration succeeds, the return value is

+Some PCI devices are broken in the sense that they return invalid size

+    <title>The XFree86 X Video Extension (Xv) Device Dependent Layer</title>
+
+    <para>
+XFree86 offers the X Video Extension which allows clients to treat video
+as any another primitive and ``Put'' video into drawables.  By default,
+the extension reports no video adaptors as being available since the
+DDX layer has not been initialized.  The driver can initialize the DDX
+layer by filling out one or more <literal remap="tt">XF86VideoAdaptorRecs</literal>
+as described later in this document and passing a list of
+<literal remap="tt">XF86VideoAdaptorPtr</literal> pointers to the following function:
+
+      <programlisting>
+    Bool xf86XVScreenInit(ScreenPtr pScreen,
+                          XF86VideoAdaptorPtr *adaptPtrs,
+                          int num);
+      </programlisting>
+    </para>
+
+    <para>
+After doing this, the extension will report video adaptors as being
+available, providing the data in their respective
+<literal remap="tt">XF86VideoAdaptorRecs</literal> was valid.
+<function>xf86XVScreenInit()</function> <emphasis>copies</emphasis> data from the structure
+passed to it so the driver may free it after the initialization.  At
+the moment, the DDX only supports rendering into Window drawables.
+Pixmap rendering will be supported after a sufficient survey of suitable
+hardware is completed.

+    <title>The Loader</title>
+
+    <para>
+This section describes the interfaces to the module loader.  The loader
+interfaces can be divided into two groups: those that are only available to
+the XFree86 common layer, and those that are also available to modules.
+    </para>
+
+    <sect2>
+      <title>Loader Overview</title>
+
+      <para>
+The loader is capable of loading modules in a range of object formats,
+and knowledge of these formats is built in to the loader.  Knowledge of
+new object formats can be added to the loader in a straightforward
+manner.  This makes it possible to provide OS-independent modules (for
+a given CPU architecture type).  In addition to this, the loader can
+load modules via the OS-provided <function>dlopen(3)</function> service where
+available.  Such modules are not platform independent, and the semantics
+of <function>dlopen()</function> on most systems results in significant
+limitations in the use of modules of this type.  Support for
+<function>dlopen()</function> modules in the loader is primarily for
+experimental and development purposes.
+      </para>
+
+      <para>
+Symbols exported by the loader (on behalf of the core X server) to
+modules are determined at compile time.  Only those symbols explicitly
+exported are available to modules.  All external symbols of loaded
+modules are exported to other modules, and to the core X server.  The
+loader can be requested to check for unresolved symbols at any time,
+and the action to be taken for unresolved symbols can be controlled by
+the caller of the loader.  Typically the caller identifies which symbols
+can safely remain unresolved and which cannot.
+      </para>
+
+      <para>
+NOTE:  Now that ISO-C allows pointers to functions and pointers to data to
+have different internal representations, some of the following interfaces
+will need to be revisited.

+
+    <para>
+The following is an outline for writing a basic unaccelerated driver
+for a PCI video card with a linear mapped framebuffer, and which has a
+VGA core.  It is includes some general information that is relevant to
+most drivers (even those which don't fit that basic description).
+    </para>
+
+    <para>
+The information here is based on the initial conversion of the Matrox
+Millennium driver to the ``new design''.  For a fleshing out and sample
+implementation of some of the bits outlined here, refer to that driver.
+Note that this is an example only.  The approach used here will not be
+appropriate for all drivers.
+    </para>
+
+    <para>
+Each driver must reserve a unique driver name, and a string that is used
+to prefix all of its externally visible symbols.  This is to avoid name
+space clashes when loading multiple drivers.  The examples here are for
+the ``ZZZ'' driver, which uses the ``ZZZ'' or ``zzz'' prefix for its externally
+visible symbols.
