Introduction + +With XFree86 4.x and the Direct Rendering Interface (DRI), hardware acceler- +ated 3D graphics can be considered a standard feature on Linux workstations. +Support for other operating systems, such as FreeBSD, is underway. + +This document describes how to use the DRI system and troubleshoot problems +which may occur. Readers should have a basic understanding of Linux, X and +OpenGL. See the resources section at the end for more documentation and +software downloads. + +This document does not cover compilation or installation of XFree86 4.x. It +is assumed that you've already installed a Linux distribution which includes +XFree86 4.x or that you're an experienced Linux developer who has compiled +the DRI for himself. DRI download, compilation and installation instructions +can be found at http://dri.sourceforge.net/DRIcompile.html + +Edits, corrections and updates to this document may be mailed to <brian@tung- +stengrahpics.com>. + +3. Supported Architectures & Hardware + +3.1 CPU Architectures + +The architectures currently supported by the DRI have grown from the initial +Intel i386 systems to now include the Alpha Processor and the Sun SPARC +machines. + +Intel's SSE (a.k.a. Katmai) instructions are used in optimized vertex trans- +formation functions in Mesa-based drivers. This requires a recent Linux ker- +nel both at compile and runtime. See the DRI Compile Guide for compile-time +requirements. At runtime a check is made to determine if the CPU can execute +SSE instructions. They're disabled otherwise. + +AMD's 3DNow! instructions are also used in optimized vertex transformation +functions in the Mesa-based DRI drivers. 3DNow! is supported in most ver- +sions of Linux. Like the SSE optimizations, a runtime check is made to +determine if the CPU can execute 3DNow! instructions. + +Alpha-based systems can use Compaq's optimized math library for improved 3D +performance. See the DRI Compilation Guide for details. + +3.2 Graphics Hardware + +XFree86 4.2 (or later versions) includes 3D acceleration for the following +graphics hardware: + + o 3dfx, supported on Intel x86, AMD and Alpha: + + o Voodoo5 5500 + + o Voodoo4 4500 + + o Voodoo3 3500 TV + + o Voodoo3 3000 AGP + + o Voodoo3 3000 PCI + + o Voodoo3 2000 AGP + + o Voodoo3 2000 PCI + + o Voodoo Banshee + + o Velocity 100/200 + + There are many configurations of 3dfx cards on the market. Not all have + been tested. + + o Matrox, supported on Intel x86 and AMD: + + o Matrox G200 + + o Matrox G400 + + o Intel i810/i815/i830 (motherboard chipsets) + + o i810 + + o i810-dc100 + + o i810e + + o i815 + + o i830 + + o ATI Rage 128, supported on Intel x86, AMD and Alpha: + + o Rage Fury + + o Rage Magnum + + o XPERT 2000 + + o XPERT 128 + + o XPERT 99 + + o All-in-Wonder 128 + + o Rage 128 PCI (Alpha-based systems) + + Note that both PCI and AGP versions of Rage 128 based cards are sup- + ported at this time. + + o ATI Radeon, supported on Intel x86, AMD and Alpha: + + o Radeon SDR AGP + + o Radeon DDR AGP + + o Radeon 32MB SDR PCI (Alpha-based systems) + + o Radeon 7000, M6 (RV100) + + o Radeon 7200 (R100) + + o Radeon 7500, M7 (RV200) + + o Radeon 8500, 9100 (R200) + + o Radeon 9000, M9 (RV250) + + o 3Dlabs, supported on Intel x86 and AMD: + + o Oxygen GMX 2000 (MX/Gamma based). Note: this driver is no longer + being actively developed. + +Support for other hardware is underway. Most of the DRI development work is +funded by contracts with IHVs. These contracts often prevent us from +announcing drivers before they're released. Queries about upcoming drivers +may not be answerable. + +4. Prerequisite Software + + o The DRI is available in XFree86 4.0 and later. + + o Some hardware drivers require specific versions of the Linux kernel for + AGP support, etc. See section 10 for specifics. + + o You DO NOT need to install Mesa separately. The parts of Mesa needed + for hardware acceleration are already in the XFree86/DRI project. + +5. Kernel Modules + +3D hardware acceleration requires a DRI kernel module that's specific to your +graphics hardware. + +The DRI kernel module version must exactly match your running kernel version. +Since there are so many versions of the kernel, it's difficult to provide +precompiled kernel modules. + +While the Linux source tree includes the DRI kernel module sources, the lat- +est DRI kernel sources will be found in the DRI source tree. + +See the DRI Compilation Guide for information on compiling the DRI kernel +modules. + +XFree86 4.0.1 added automatic kernel module loading to the X server. On +Linux, the X server uses modprobe to load kernel modules. In Linux 2.4.x the +DRM kernel modules should be kept in /lib/modules/2.4.x/ker- +nel/drivers/char/drm/ for automatic loading to work. + +Optionally, DRM kernel modules can be loaded manually with insmod prior to +starting the X server. + +You can verify that the kernel module was installed with lsmod, checking the +X server startup log, and checking that /proc/dri/0 exists. + +6. XF86Config file + +The XFree86 configuration file is usually found in /etc/X11/XF86Config. This +section describes the parts which must be specially set for the DRI. + +First, the XF86Config file must load the GLX and DRI modules: + + Section "Module" + ... + # This loads the GLX module + Load "glx" + # This loads the DRI module + Load "dri" + EndSection + +Next, the DRI section can be used to restrict access to direct rendering. A +client can only use direct rendering if it has permission to open the +/dev/dri/card? file(s). The permissions on these DRI device files is con- +trolled by the "DRI" section in the XF86Config file. + +If you want all of the users on your system to be able to use direct-render- +ing, then use a simple DRI section like this: + + Section "DRI" + Mode 0666 + EndSection + +This section will allow any user with a current connection to the X server to +use direct rendering. + +If you want to restrict the use of direct-rendering to a certain group of +users, then create a group for those users by editing the /etc/group file on +your system. For example, you may want to create a group called xf86dri and +place two users (e.g., fred and jane) in that group. To do that, you might +add the following line to /etc/group: + + xf86dri:x:8000:fred,jane + +You have to be careful that the group id (8000 in this example) is unique. + +Then you would use the following DRI section: + + Section "DRI" + Group "xf86dri" + Mode 0660 + EndSection + +This would limit access to direct-rendering to those users in the xf86dri +group (fred and jane in this example). When other users tried to use direct +rendering, they would fall back to unaccelerated indirect rendering. + +[Note that there is a known bug in XFree86 4.0 that prevents some changes to +the DRI section from taking effect. Until this bug is fixed, if you change +the DRI section, please also remove the /dev/dri directory with the rm -rf +/dev/dri command.] + +Finally, the XF86Config file needs Device and Screen sections specific to +your hardware. Look in section 10: Hardware-Specific Information and Trou- +bleshooting for details. + +7. Memory usage + +Using the 3D features of a graphics card requires more memory than when it's +just used as a 2D device. Double buffering, depth buffering, stencil +buffers, textures, etc. all require extra graphics memory. These features +may require four times the memory used for a simple 2D display. + +If your graphics card doesn't have a lot of memory (less than 16MB, for exam- +ple), you may have to reduce your screen size and/or color depth in order to +use 3D features. Reducing the screen resolution will also leave more space +for texture images, possibly improving 3D performance. If, for example, you +play Quake3 at 1024x768 but start your display at 1600x1200 you might con- +sider restarting X at 1024x768 in order to maximize your texture memory +space. + +The documentation included with your card should have information about maxi- +mum screen size when using 3D. + +8. Using 3D Acceleration + +This section describes how to link your application with libGL.so and verify +that you are in fact using 3D acceleration. + +8.1 libGL.so + +Your OpenGL program must link with the libGL.so.1.2 library provided by +XFree86. The libGL.so.1.2 library contains a GLX protocol encoder for indi- +rect/remote rendering and DRI code for accessing hardware drivers. In par- +ticular, be sure you're not using libGL.so from another source such as Mesa +or the Utah GLX project. + +Unless it was built in a special way, the libGL.so library does not contain +any 3D hardware driver code. Instead, libGL.so dynamically loads the appro- +priate 3D driver during initialization. + +Most simple OpenGL programs also use the GLUT and GLU libraries. A source +for these libraries is listed in the Resources section below. + +8.2 Compiling and linking an OpenGL program + +A simple GLUT/OpenGL program may be compiled and linked as follows: + + gcc program.c -I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lglut -lGLU -lGL -o program + +The -I option is used to specify where the GL/glut.h (and possibly the +GL/gl.h and GL/glu.h) header file may be found. + +The -L options specify where the libglut.so and the X libraries are located. +libGL.so and libGLU.so should be in /usr/lib, as specified by the +Linux/OpenGL ABI standard. + +The -lglut -lGLU -lGL arguments specify that the application should link with +the GLUT, GLU and GL libraries, in that order. + +8.3 Running your OpenGL program + +Simply typing ./program in your shell should execute the program. + +If you get an error message such as + + gears: error in loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot + open shared object file: No such file or directory + +if means that the libGL.so.1 file is not the right location. Proceed to the +trouble shooting section. + +8.4 libOSMesa.so + +OSMesa (Off-Screen Mesa) is an interface and driver for rendering 3D images +into a user-allocated block of memory rather than an on-screen window. It +was originally developed for Mesa before Mesa became part of the XFree86/DRI +project. It can now be used with the XFree86/DRI libGL.so as well. + +libOSMesa.so implements the OSMesa interface and it must be linked with your +application if you want to use the OSMesa functions. You must also link with +libGL.so. For example: + + gcc osdemo.c -lOSMesa -lGLU -lGL -o osdemo + +In stand-alone Mesa this interface was compiled into the monolithic libGL.so +(formerly libMesaGL.so) library. In XFree86 4.0.1 and later this interface +is implemented in a separate library. + +8.5 glxinfo + +glxinfo is a useful program for checking which version of libGL you're using +as well as which DRI-based driver. Simply type glxinfo and examine the +OpenGL vendor, renderer, and version lines. Among the output you should see +something like this: + + OpenGL vendor string: VA Linux Systems, Inc. + OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Voodoo3 20000224 + OpenGL version string: 1.2 Mesa 3.4 + +or this: + + OpenGL vendor string: VA Linux Systems, Inc. + OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect + OpenGL version string: 1.2 Mesa 3.4 + +The first example indicates that the 3dfx driver is using Voodoo3 hardware. +The second example indicates that no hardware driver was found and indirect, +unaccelerated rendering is being used. + +If you see that indirect rendering is being used when direct rendering was +expected, proceed to the troubleshooting section. + +glxinfo also lists all of the GLX-enhanced visuals available so you can +determine which visuals are double-bufferd, have depth (Z) buffers, stencil +buffers, accumulation buffers, etc. + +8.6 Environment Variables + +The libGL.so library recognizes three environment variables. Normally, none +of them need to be defined. If you're using the csh or tcsh shells, type +setenv VARNAME value to set the variable. Otherwise, if you're using sh or +bash, type export VARNAME=value. + + 1. LIBGL_DEBUG, if defined will cause libGL.so to print error and diagnos- + tic messages. This can help to solve problems. Setting LIBGL_DEBUG to + verbose may provide additional information. + + 2. LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT, if defined this will force libGL.so to always + use indirect rendering instead of hardware acceleration. This can be + useful to isolate rendering errors. + + 3. LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH can be used to override the default directories + which are searched for 3D drivers. The value is one or more paths sep- + arated by colons. In a typical XFree86 installation, the 3D drivers + should be in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/ and LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH need + not be defined. Note that this feature is disabled for set-uid pro- + grams. This variable replaces the LIBGL_DRIVERS_DIR env var used in + XFree86 4.0. + + 4. MESA_DEBUG, if defined, will cause Mesa-based 3D drivers to print user + error messages to stderr. These are errors that you'd otherwise detect + by calling glGetError. + +Mesa-based drivers (this includes most of the drivers listed above) also +observe many of the existing Mesa environment variables. These include the +MESA_DEBUG and MESA_INFO variables. + +9. General Trouble Shooting + +This section contains information to help you diagnose general problems. See +below for additional information for specific hardware. + +9.1 Bus Mastering + +DMA-based DRI drivers (that's most DRI drivers) cannot function unless bus +mastering is enabled for your graphics card. By default, some systems don't +having bus mastering on. You should enable it in your BIOS. + +Alternately, you can check the status of bus mastering and change the setting +from within Linux. There may be similar procedures for other operating sys- +tems. + +Run lspci (as root) and find the information describing your graphics +adapter. For example: + + 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 440BX/ZX - 82443BX/ZX Host bridge (rev 03) + 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 440BX/ZX - 82443BX/ZX AGP bridge (rev 03) + 00:07.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82371AB PIIX4 ISA (rev 02) + 00:07.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82371AB PIIX4 IDE (rev 01) + 00:07.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82371AB PIIX4 USB (rev 01) + 00:07.3 Bridge: Intel Corporation 82371AB PIIX4 ACPI (rev 02) + 00:11.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 08) + 00:12.0 SCSI storage controller: Symbios Logic Inc. (formerly NCR) 53c895 (rev 02) + 00:14.0 Multimedia audio controller: Ensoniq ES1371 [AudioPCI-97] (rev 08) + 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: 3Dfx Interactive, Inc.: Unknown device 0009 (rev 01) + +The bus, device, and function number comprise the device id, which is conven- +tionally written in the form bus:dev.func, or in this case 01:00.0. + +Use the setpci command to examine bit two of register 4 for your graphics +card. This will indicate whether or not bus mastering is enabled. + + setpci -s 01:00.0 4.w + +A hexadecimal value will be printed. Convert the least significant digit to +binary. For example, if you see 3, that's 0011 in binary (bit two is 0). If +you see 7, that's 0111 in binary (bit two is 1). In the first example, bus +mastering is disabled. It's enabled in the second example. + +The following shell script will enabled bus mastering for your graphics card +and host bridge. Run it as root. + + #!/bin/bash + dev=01:00.0 # change as appropriate + echo Enabling bus mastering on device $dev + setpci -s $dev 4.w=$(printf %x $((0x$(setpci -s $dev 4.w)|4))) + dev=00:00.0 + echo Enabling bus mastering on host bridge $dev + setpci -s $dev 4.w=$(printf %x $((0x$(setpci -s $dev 4.w)|4))) + +You can check if this worked by running the first setpci command again. + +9.2 The X Server + + 1. Before you start the X server, verify the appropriate 3D kernel module + is installed. Type lsmod and look for the appropriate kernel module. + For 3dfx hardware you should see tdfx, for example. + + 2. Verify you're running XFree86 4.0 (or newer) and not an older version. + If you run xdpyinfo and look for the following line near the top: + + vendor release number: 4000 + + 3. Verify that your XF86Config file (usually found at /etc/X11/XF86Config) + loads the glx and dri modules and has a DRI section. + + See the Software Resources section below for sample XF86Config files. + + 4. Examine the messages printed during X server startup and check that the + DRM module loaded. Using the Voodoo3 as an example: + + (==) TDFX(0): Write-combining range (0xf0000000,0x2000000) + (II) TDFX(0): Textures Memory 7.93 MB + (0): [drm] created "tdfx" driver at busid "PCI:1:0:0" + (0): [drm] added 4096 byte SAREA at 0xc65dd000 + (0): [drm] mapped SAREA 0xc65dd000 to 0x40013000 + (0): [drm] framebuffer handle = 0xf0000000 + (0): [drm] added 1 reserved context for kernel + (II) TDFX(0): [drm] Registers = 0xfc000000 + (II) TDFX(0): visual configs initialized + (II) TDFX(0): Using XFree86 Acceleration Architecture (XAA) + Screen to screen bit blits + Solid filled rectangles + 8x8 mono pattern filled rectangles + Indirect CPU to Screen color expansion + Solid Lines + Dashed Lines + Offscreen Pixmaps + Driver provided NonTEGlyphRenderer replacement + Setting up tile and stipple cache: + 10 128x128 slots + (==) TDFX(0): Backing store disabled + (==) TDFX(0): Silken mouse enabled + (0): X context handle = 0x00000001 + (0): [drm] installed DRM signal handler + (0): [DRI] installation complete + (II) TDFX(0): direct rendering enabled + + 5. After the X server has started, verify that the required X server + extensions are loaded. Run xdpyinfo and look for the following entries + in the extensions list: + + GLX + SGI-GLX + XFree86-DRI + +9.3 Linking, running and verifying 3D acceleration + +After you've verified that the X server and DRI have started correctly it's +time to verify that the GL library and hardware drivers are working cor- +rectly. + + 1. Verify that you're using the correct libGL.so library with ldd. The + /usr/lib and /usr/X11R6/lib directories are expected locations for + libGL.so. + + Example: + + % ldd /usr/local/bin/glxinfo + libglut.so.3 => /usr/local/lib/libglut.so.3 (0x40019000) + libGLU.so.1 => /usr/local/lib/libGLU.so.1 (0x40051000) + libGL.so.1 => /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 (0x40076000) + libXmu.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmu.so.6 (0x402ee000) + libXi.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXi.so.6 (0x40301000) + libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x40309000) + libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40325000) + libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x40419000) + libXt.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6 (0x404bd000) + libSM.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6 (0x40509000) + libICE.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6 (0x40512000) + libXext.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x40529000) + libvga.so.1 => /usr/lib/libvga.so.1 (0x40537000) + libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x4057d000) + /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000) + + 2. You may also double check that libGL.so is in fact DRI-capable. Run + strings libGL.so.1.2 | grep DRI and look for symbols prefixed with + "XF86DRI", such as "XF86DRIQueryExtension". + + 3. To be safe one should run ldconfig after installing libGL.so to be sure + the runtime loader will find the proper library. + + 4. Verify that the appropriate 3D driver is in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/ + For example, the 3dfx driver will be named tdfx_dri.so. + + 5. Set the LIBGL_DEBUG environment variable. This will cause libGL.so to + print an error message if it fails to load a DRI driver. Any error + message printed should be self-explanatory. + + 6. Run glxinfo. Note the line labeled "OpenGL renderer string". It + should have a value which starts with "Mesa DRI" followed by the name + of your hardware. + + 7. Older Linux OpenGL applications may have been linked against Mesa's GL + library and will not automatically use libGL.so. In some cases, making + symbolic links from the Mesa GL library to libGL.so.1 will solve the + problem: + + ln -s libGL.so.1 libMesaGL.so.3 + + In other cases, the application will have to be relinked against the + new XFree86 libGL.so. + + It is reported that part of the problem is that running ldconfig will + silently rewrite symbolic links based on the SONAME field in libraries. + +If you're still having trouble, look in the next section for information spe- +cific to your graphics card. + +10. Hardware-Specific Information and Troubleshooting + +This section presents hardware-specific information for normal use and trou- +bleshooting. + +10.1 3dfx Banshee, Voodoo3, Voodoo4 and Voodoo5 Series + +10.1.1 Requirements + +The 3dfx DRI driver requires special versions of the 3dfx Glide library. +Different versions of Glide are needed for Banshee/Voodoo3 than for +Voodoo4/5. The Glide libraries can be downloaded from the DRI website. + +10.1.2 Configuration + +Your XF86Config file's device section must specify the tdfx device. For +example: + + Section "Device" + Identifier "Voodoo3" + VendorName "3dfx" + Driver "tdfx" + EndSection + +Or, + + Section "Device" + Identifier "Voodoo5" + VendorName "3dfx" + Driver "tdfx" + EndSection + +The Screen section should then reference the Voodoo device: + + Section "Screen" + Identifier "Screen 1" + Device "Voodoo3" + Monitor "High Res Monitor" + DefaultDepth 16 + Subsection "Display" + Depth 16 + Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" + ViewPort 0 0 + EndSubsection + EndSection + +Or, + + Section "Screen" + Identifier "Screen 1" + Device "Voodoo5" + Monitor "High Res Monitor" + DefaultDepth 24 + Subsection "Display" + Depth 16 + Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" + ViewPort 0 0 + EndSubsection + Subsection "Display" + Depth 24 + Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" + ViewPort 0 0 + EndSubsection + EndSection + +The kernel module for 3dfx hardware is named tdfx.o and should be installed +in /lib/modules/2.4.x/kernel/drivers/char/drm/. It will be automatically +loaded by the Xserver if needed. + +The DRI 3D driver for 3dfx hardware should be in /usr/X11R6/lib/mod- +ules/dri/tdfx_dri.so. This will be automatically loaded by libGL.so. + +The Voodoo5 supports 3D rendering in 16 and 32 bpp modes. When running in +32bpp mode an 8-bit stencil buffer and 24-bit Z (depth) buffer are offered. +When running in 16bpp mode only a 16-bit Z (depth) buffer is offered and +stencil is implemented in software. + +A software-based accumulation buffer is available in both 16 and 32bpp modes. + +10.1.3 Troubleshooting + + o If you try to run an OpenGL application and see an error message similar + to + + gd error (glide): gd error (glide): grSstSelect: non-existent SSTgd error (glide): grSstSelect: non-existent SSTS + + it means that you have the wrong version of the Glide library for your + hardware. + + o 3D acceleration for Banshee and Voodoo3 is only supported in the 16 + bit/pixel screen mode. Use xdpyinfo to verify that all your visuals are + depth 16. Edit your XF86Config file if needed. + + o The /dev/3dfx device is not used for DRI; it's only for Glide on older + 3dfx hardware. + + o Different versions of Glide are needed for Voodoo3 and Voodoo5. See the + DRI website's resources page to download the right version of Glide. + + o Voodoo4/5 may be run at 24bpp (instead of 32bpp, the default) but 3D + acceleration is not supported in that mode. 32bpp mode is fully 3D + accelerated. + +10.1.4 Performance and Features + + o Normally, buffer swapping in double-buffered applications is synchro- + nized to your monitor's refresh rate. This may be overridden by setting + the FX_GLIDE_SWAPINTERVAL environment variable. The value of this vari- + able indicates the maximum number of swap buffer commands can be + buffered. Zero allows maximum frame rate. + + o On Voodoo4/5, rendering with 16-bits/texel textures is faster than using + 32-bit per texel textures. The internalFormat parameter to glTexImage2D + can be used to control texel size. Quake3 and other games let you con- + trol this as well. + + o The glTexEnv mode GL_BLEND is not directly supported by the Voodoo3 + hardware. It can be accomplished with a multipass algorithm but it's + not implemented at this time. Applications which use that mode, such as + the Performer Town demo, may become sluggish when falling back to soft- + ware rendering to render in that mode. + + o The Voodoo3/Banshee driver reverts to software rendering under the fol- + lowing conditions: + + o Setting GL_LIGHT_MODEL_COLOR_CONTROL to GL_SEPARATE_SPECULAR_COLOR. + + o Enabling line stippling or polygon stippling. + + o Enabling point smoothing or polygon smoothing. + + o Enabling line smoothing when line width is not 1.0.

First, stencil operations are + implemented in hardware when the screen is configured for 32 bits/pixel. + Second, the GL_BLEND texture env mode is fully supported in hardware. + Third, glColorMask is fully supported in hardware when the screen is + configured for 32 bits/pixel. + + o As of January, 2001 the second VSA-100 chip on the Voodoo5 is not yet + operational. Therefore, the board isn't being used to its full capac- + ity. The second VSA-100 chip will allow Scan-Line Interleave (SLI) mode + for full-screen applications and games, potentially doubling the sys- + tem's fill rate.

With this implementation, on a G400 drawing directly +from AGP memory (exported to the client), throughput of up to 1 GB/sec has +been measured. + +Additionally Compaq's funding has produced several new extensions in Mesa, +including one (packed_depth_stencil_MESA) which enables Read/DrawPixels func- +tionality to operate directly on the packed 24/8 depth/stencil buffers of +this hardware. + +In order to access this functionality, the application must ensure that all +pixel processing operations are disabled. There are in addition a fairly +complex set of rules regarding which packing/unpacking modes must be used, +and which data formats are supported, and alignment constraints. See the +files in lib/GL/mesa/src/drv/mga/DOCS for a summary of these. The extension +definitions are included in the Mesa 3.4 source distribution. + +10.3.4 IRQ Assignment + +There have been problems in the past with the MGA driver being very sluggish +when the DRI is enabled (to the point of being unusable.) This is caused by +the graphics card not having an interrupt assigned to it. The current DRI +trunk will attempt to detect this condition and bail out gracefully. + +The solution to the above problem is to assign an interrupt to your graphics +card. This is something you must turn on in your system BIOS configuration. +Please consult your system BIOS manual for instructions on how to enable an +interrupt for your graphics card. + +10.3.5 MGA HAL lib + +MGAHALlib.a is a binary library Matrox has provided for use under Linux to +expose functionality for which they can not provide documentation.

General Limitations and Known Bugs + +11.1 OpenGL + +The following OpenGL features are not supported at this time: overlays, +stereo, hardware-accelerated indirect rendering. + +OpenGL-like functionality is provided with the Mesa library. XFree86 4.1.0 +uses Mesa 3.4.2. Subsequent releases of XFree86 will use newer versions of +Mesa. When newer versions of Mesa are available, the 3D drivers can be +updated without reinstalling XFree86 or libGL.so. + +11.2 GLX + +The GLX 1.3 API is exported but none of the new 1.3 functions are opera- +tional. + +The new glXGetProcAddressARB function is fully supported. + +GLXPixmap rendering is only supported for indirect rendering contexts. This +is a common OpenGL limitation. Attempting to use a direct rendering context +with a GLXPixmap will result in an X protocol error. + +11.3 Debugging + +Debugging DRI drivers with gdb can be difficult because of the locking +involved. When debugging OpenGL applications, you should avoid stepping +inside the GL functions. If you're trying to debug a DRI driver it's recom- +mended that you do so remotely, from a second system. + +11.4 Scheduling + +When you run multiple GL applications at once you may notice poor time slic- +ing. This is due to an interaction problem with the Linux scheduler which +will be addressed in the future. + +11.5 libGL.so and dlopen() + +A number of popular OpenGL applications on Linux (such as Quake3, HereticII, +Heavy Gear 2, etc) dynamically open the libGL.so library at runtime with +dlopen(), rather than linking with -lGL at compile/link time. + +If dynamic loading of libGL.so is not implemented carefully, there can be a +number of serious problems. Here are the things to be careful of in your +application: + + o Specify the RTLD_GLOBAL flag to dlopen(). If you don't do this then + you'll likely see a runtime error message complaining that _glapi_Con- + text is undefined when libGL.so tries to open a hardware-specific + driver. Without this flag, nested opening of dynamic libraries does not + work. + + o Do not close the library with dlclose() until after XCloseDisplay() has + been called. When libGL.so initializes itself it registers several + callbacks functions with Xlib. When XCloseDisplay() is called those + callback functions are called. If libGL.so has already been unloaded + with dlclose() this will cause a segmentation fault. + + o Your application should link with -lpthread. On Linux, libGL.so uses + the pthreads library in order to provide thread safety. There is appar- + ently a bug in the dlopen()/dlclose() code which causes crashes if the + library uses pthreads but the parent application doesn't. The only + known work-around is to link the application with -lpthread. + +Some applications don't yet incorporate these procedures and may fail. For +example, changing the graphics settings in some video games will expose this +problem. The DRI developers are working with game vendors to prevent this +problem in the future. + +11.6 Bug Database + +The DRI bug database which includes bugs related to specific drivers is at +the SourceForge DRI Bug Database + +Please scan both the open and closed bug lists to determine if your problem +has already been reported and perhaps fixed. + +12.

Introduction + +This document describes the support for fonts in XFree86. Installing fonts +(section 2., page 1) is aimed at the casual user wishing to install fonts in +XFree86; the rest of the document describes the font support in more detail. + +We assume some familiarity with digital fonts. If anything is not clear to +you, please consult Appendix: Background (section 5., page 1) at the end of +this document for background information. + +1.1 Two font systems + +XFree86 includes two font systems: the core X11 fonts system, which is pre- +sent in all implementations of X11, and the Xft fonts system, which is not +currently distributed with implementations of X11 that are not based on +XFree86 but will hopefully be included by them in the future + +The core X11 fonts system is directly derived from the fonts system included +with X11R1 in 1987, which could only use monochrome bitmap fonts. Over the +years, it has been more or less happily coerced into dealing with scalable +fonts and rotated glyphs. + +Xft was designed from the start to provide good support for scalable fonts, +and do so efficiently. Unlike the core fonts system, it supports features +such as anti-aliasing and sub-pixel rasterisation. Perhaps more importantly, +it gives applications full control over the way glyphs are rendered, making +fine typesetting and WYSIWIG display possible. Finally, it allows applica- +tions to use fonts that are not installed system-wide for displaying docu- +ments with embedded fonts. + +Xft is not compatible with the core fonts system: usage of Xft requires mak- +ing fairly extensive changes to toolkits (user-interface libraries). While +XFree86 will continue to maintain the core fonts system, toolkit authors are +encouraged to switch to Xft as soon as possible. + +2. Installing fonts + +This section explains how to configure both Xft and the core fonts system to +access newly-installed fonts. + +2.1 Configuring Xft + +Xft has no configuration mechanism itself, rather it relies upon the fontcon- +fig library to configure and customize fonts. That library is not specific +to XFree86 or indeed on any particular font output mechanism. This discus- +sion describes how fontconfig, rather than Xft, works. + +2.1.1 Installing fonts in Xft + +Fontconfig looks for fonts in a set of well-known directories that include +all of XFree86's standard font directories (`/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/lib/fonts/*') +by default) as well as a directory called `.fonts/' in the user's home direc- +tory. Installing a font for use by Xft applications is as simple as copying +a font file into one of these directories. + + $ cp lucbr.ttf ~/.fonts/ + +Fontconfig will notice the new font at the next opportunity and rebuild its +list of fonts. If you want to trigger this update from the command line (for +example in order to globally update the system-wide Fontconfig information), +you may run the command `fc-cache'. + + $ fc-cache + +2.1.2 Fine-tuning Xft + +Fontconfig's behaviour is controlled by a set of configuration files: a sys- +tem-wide configuration file, `/etc/fonts/fonts.conf', and a user-specific +file called `.fonts.conf' in the user's home directory (this can be overrid- +den with the `FONTCONFIG_FILE' environment variable). + +Every Fontconfig configuration file must start with the following boiler- +plate: + + <?xml version="1.0"?> + <!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd"> + <fontconfig> + +In addition, every Fontconfig configuration file must end with the following +line: + + </fontconfig> + +The default Fontconfig configuration file includes the directory `~/.fonts/' +in the list of directories searched for font files, and this is where user- +specific font files should be installed. In the unlikely case that a new +font directory needs to be added, this can be done with the following syntax: + + <dir>/usr/local/share/fonts/</dir> + +Another useful option is the ability to disable anti-aliasing (font smooth- +ing) for selected fonts. This can be done with the following syntax: + + <match target="font"> + <test qual="any" name="family"> + <string>Lucida Console</string> + </test> + <edit name="antialias" mode="assign"> + <bool>false</bool> + </edit> + </match> + +Anti-aliasing can be disabled for all fonts by the following incantation: + + <match target="font"> + <edit name="antialias" mode="assign"> + <bool>false</bool> + </edit> + </match> + +Xft supports sub-pixel rasterisation on LCD displays. XFree86 should auto- +matically enable this feature on laptops and when using an LCD monitor con- +nected with a DVI cable; you can check whether this was done by typing + + $ xdpyinfo -ext RENDER | grep sub-pixel + +If this doesn't print anything, you will need to configure Render for your +particular LCD hardware manually; this is done with the following syntax: + + <match target="font"> + <edit name="rgba" mode="assign"> + <const>rgb</const> + </edit> + </match> + +The string `rgb' within the `<const>'...`</const>' specifies the order of +pixel components on your display, and should be changed to match your hard- +ware; it can be one of `rgb (normal LCD screen), `bgr' (backwards LCD +screen), `vrgb' (LCD screen rotated clockwise) or `vbgr' (LCD screen rotated +counterclockwise). + +2.1.3 Configuring applications + +Because most current applications use the core fonts system by default, it is +necessary to explicitly configure them to use Xft. How this is done depends +on the application. + +XTerm can be set to use Xft by using the `-fa' command line option or by set- +ting the `XTerm*faceName' resource: + + XTerm*faceName: Courier + +or + + $ xterm -fa "Courier" + +For applications based on GTK+ 2.0 (including GNOME 2 applications), the +environment variable `GDK_USE_XFT' should be set to `1': + + $ export GDK_USE_XFT=1 + +GTK+ 2.2 uses Xft by default. + +For KDE applications, you should select ``Anti-alias fonts'' in the ``Fonts'' +panel of KDE's ``Control Center''. Note that this option is misnamed: it +switches KDE to using Xft but doesn't enable anti-aliasing in case it was +disabled by your Xft configuration file. + +(What about Mozilla?) + +2.1.4 Troubleshooting + +If some Xft-based applications don't seem to notice the changes you are mak- +ing to your configuration files, they may be linked against the XFree86 4.2 +version of Xft. In order to fix the problem, you should relink them against +a current version of Xft; on most systems, it is enough to install the cur- +rent version of the Xft and Fontconfig libraries. + +If, for some reason, you cannot upgrade the shared libraries, please check +the Xft(3) manual page included with XFree86 4.2 for the configuration mecha- +nisms of the previous version of Xft. + +2.2 Configuring the core X11 fonts system + +Installing fonts in the core system is a two step process. First, you need +to create a font directory that contains all the relevant font files as well +as some index files. You then need to inform the X server of the existence +of this new directory by including it in the font path. + +2.2.1 Installing bitmap fonts + +The XFree86 server can use bitmap fonts in both the cross-platform BDF format +and the somewhat more efficient binary PCF format. (XFree86 also supports +the obsolete SNF format.) + +Bitmap fonts are normally distributed in the BDF format. Before installing +such fonts, it is desirable (but not absolutely necessary) to convert the +font files to the PCF format. This is done by using the command `bdftopcf', +e.g. + + $ bdftopcf courier12.bdf + +You will then want to compress the resulting PCF font files: + + $ gzip courier12.pcf + +After the fonts have been converted, you should copy all the font files that +you wish to make available into a arbitrary directory, say +`/usr/local/share/fonts/bitmap/'. You should then create the index file +`fonts.dir' by running the command `mkfontdir' (please see the mkfontdir(1) +manual page for more information): + + $ mkdir /usr/local/share/fonts/bitmap/ + $ cp *.pcf.gz /usr/local/share/fonts/bitmap/ + $ mkfontdir /usr/local/share/fonts/bitmap/ + +All that remains is to tell the X server about the existence of the new font +directory; see Setting the server font path (section 2.2.4, page 1) below. + +2.2.2 Installing scalable fonts + +The XFree86 server supports scalable fonts in four formats: Type 1, Speedo, +TrueType and CIDFont. This section only applies to the former three; for +information on CIDFonts, please see Installing CIDFonts (section 2.2.3, page +1) later in this document. + +Installing scalable fonts is very similar to installing bitmap fonts: you +create a directory with the font files, and run `mkfontdir' to create an +index file called `fonts.dir'. + +There is, however, a big difference: `mkfontdir' cannot automatically recog- +nise scalable font files. For that reason, you must first index all the font +files in a file called `fonts.scale'. While this can be done by hand, it is +best done by using the `mkfontscale' utility. + + $ mkfontscale /usr/local/share/fonts/Type1/ + $ mkfontdir /usr/local/share/fonts/Type1/ + +Under some circumstances, it may be necessary to modify the `fonts.scale' +file generated by mkfontscale; for more information, please see the mkfont- +dir(1) and mkfontscale(1) manual pages and Core fonts and internationalisa- +tion (section 4.1, page 1) later in this document. + +2.2.3 Installing CID-keyed fonts + +The CID-keyed font format was designed by Adobe Systems for fonts with large +character sets. A CID-keyed font, or CIDFont for short, contains a collec- +tion of glyphs indexed by character ID (CID). + +In order to map such glyphs to meaningful indices, Adobe provide a set of +CMap files. The PostScript name of a font generated from a CIDFont consists +of the name of the CIDFont and the name of the CMap separated by two dashes. +For example, the font generated from the CIDFont `Munhwa-Regular' using the +CMap `UniKS-UCS2-H' is called + + Munhwa-Regular--UniKS-UCS2-H + +The CIDFont code in XFree86 requires a very rigid directory structure. The +main directory must be called `CID' (its location defaults to +`/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID' but it may be located anywhere), and it should +contain a subdirectory for every CID collection. Every subdirectory must +contain subdirectories called CIDFont (containing the actual CIDFont files), +CMap (containing all the needed CMaps), AFM (containing the font metric +files) and CFM (initially empty). For example, in the case of the font +Munhwa-Regular that uses the CID collection Adobe-Korea1-0, the directory +structure should be as follows: + + CID/Adobe-Korea1/CIDFont/Munhwa-Regular + CID/Adobe-Korea1/CMap/UniKS-UCS2-H + CID/Adobe-Korea1/AFM/Munhwa-Regular.afm + CID/Adobe-Korea1/CFM/ + CID/fonts.dir + CID/fonts.scale + +After creating this directory structure and copying the relevant files, you +should create a <`tt/fonts.scale/' file. This file has the same format as in +the case of (non-CID) scalable fonts, except that its first column contains +PostScript font names with the extension `.cid' appended rather than actual +filenames: + + 1 + Adobe-Korea1/Munhwa-Regular--UniKS-UCS2-H.cid \ + -adobe-munhwa-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso10646-1 + +(both names on the same line). Running `mkfontdir' creates the `fonts.dir' +file: + + $ cd /usr/local/share/fonts/CID + $ mkfontdir + +Finally, you should create the font metrics summary files in the directory +`CFM' by running the command `mkcfm': + + $ mkcfm /usr/local/share/fonts/CID + +If no CFM files are available, the server will still be able to use the CID +fonts but querying them will take a long time. You should run `mkcfm' again +whenever a change is made to any of the CID-keyed fonts, or when the CID- +keyed fonts are copied to a machine with a different architecture. + +2.2.4 Setting the server's font path + +The list of directories where the server looks for fonts is known as the font +path. Informing the server of the existence of a new font directory consists +of putting it on the font path. + +The font path is an ordered list; if a client's request matches multiple +fonts, the first one in the font path is the one that gets used. When match- +ing fonts, the server makes two passes over the font path: during the first +pass, it searches for an exact match; during the second, it searches for +fonts suitable for scaling. + +For best results, scalable fonts should appear in the font path before the +bitmap fonts; this way, the server will prefer bitmap fonts to scalable fonts +when an exact match is possible, but will avoid scaling bitmap fonts when a +scalable font can be used. (The `:unscaled' hack, while still supported, +should no longer be necessary in XFree86 4.0 and later.) + +You may check the font path of the running server by typing the command + + $ xset q + +2.2.4.1 Temporary modification of the font path + +The `xset' utility may be used to modify the font path for the current ses- +sion. The font path is set with the command xset fp; a new element is added +to the front with xset +fp, and added to the end with xset fp+. For example, + + $ xset +fp /usr/local/fonts/Type1 + $ xset fp+ /usr/local/fonts/bitmap + +Conversely, an element may be removed from the front of the font path with +`xset -fp', and removed from the end with `xset fp-'. You may reset the font +path to its default value with `xset fp default'. + +For more information, please consult the xset(1) manual page. + +2.2.4.2 Permanent modification of the font path + +The default font path (the one used just after server startup or after `xset +fp default') is specified in the X server's `XF86Config' file. It is com- +puted by appending all the directories mentioned in the `FontPath' entries of +the `Files' section in the order in which they appear. + + FontPath "/usr/local/fonts/Type1" + ... + FontPath "/usr/local/fonts/bitmap" + +For more information, please consult the XF86Config(5) manual page. + +2.2.5 Troubleshooting + +If you seem to be unable to use some of the fonts you have installed, the +first thing to check is that the `fonts.dir' files are correct and that they +are readable by the server (the X server usually runs as root, beware of NFS- +mounted font directories). If this doesn't help, it is quite possible that +you are trying to use a font in a format that is not supported by your +server. + +XFree86 supports the BDF, PCF, SNF, Type 1, Speedo, TrueType, OpenType and +CIDFont font formats. However, not all XFree86 servers come with all the +font backends configured in. + +On most platforms, the XFree86 servers are modular: the font backends are +included in modules that are loaded at runtime. The modules to be loaded are +specified in the `XF86Config' file using the `Load' directive: + + Load "type1" + +If you have trouble installing fonts in a specific format, you may want to +check the server's log file in order to see whether the relevant modules are +properly loaded. The list of font modules distributed with XFree86 is as +follows: + + o "bitmap": bitmap fonts (`*.bdf', `*.pcf' and `*.snf'); + + o "freetype": TrueType fonts (`*.ttf' and `*.ttc'), OpenType fonts + (`*.otf' and `*.otc') and Type 1 fonts (`*.pfa' and `*.pfb'); + + o "type1": alternate Type 1 backend (`*.pfa' and `*.pfb') and CIDFont + backend; + + o "xtt": alternate TrueType backend (`*.ttf' and `*.ttc'); + + o "speedo": Bitstream Speedo fonts (`*.spd'). + +Please note that the argument of the `Load' directive is case-sensitive. + +3. Fonts included with XFree86 + +3.1 Standard bitmap fonts + +The Sample Implementation of X11 (SI) comes with a large number of bitmap +fonts, including the `fixed' family, and bitmap versions of Courier, Times, +Helvetica and some members of the Lucida family. In the SI, these fonts are +provided in the ISO 8859-1 encoding (ISO Latin Western-European). + +In XFree86, a number of these fonts are provided in Unicode-encoded font +files instead. At build time, these fonts are split into font files encoded +according to legacy encodings, a process which allows us to provide the stan- +dard fonts in a number of regional encodings with no duplication of work. + +For example, the font file + + /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/6x13.bdf + +with XLFD + + -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso10646-1 + +is a Unicode-encoded version of the standard `fixed' font with added support +for the Latin, Greek, Cyrillic, Georgian, Armenian, IPA and other scripts +plus numerous technical symbols. It contains over 2800 glyphs, covering all +characters of ISO 8859 parts 1-5, 7-10, 13-15, as well as all European IBM +and Microsoft code pages, KOI8, WGL4, and the repertoires of many other char- +acter sets. + +This font is used at build time for generating the font files + + 6x13-ISO8859-1.bdf + 6x13-ISO8859-2.bdf + ... + 6x13-ISO8859-15.bdf + 6x13-KOI8-R.bdf + +with respective XLFDs + + -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1 + ... + -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso8859-15 + -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-60-koi8-r + +The standard short name `fixed' is normally an alias for + + -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1 + +3.2 The ClearlyU Unicode font family + +The ClearlyU family of fonts provides a set of 12 pt, 100 dpi proportional +fonts with many of the glyphs needed for Unicode text. Together, the fonts +contain approximately 7500 glyphs. + +The main ClearlyU font has the XLFD + + -mutt-clearlyu-medium-r-normal--17-120-100-100-p-101-iso10646-1 + +and resides in the font file + + /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/cu12.pcf.gz + +Additional ClearlyU fonts include + + -mutt-clearlyu alternate glyphs-medium-r-normal--17-120-100-100-p-91-iso10646-1 + -mutt-clearlyu pua-medium-r-normal--17-120-100-100-p-111-iso10646-1 + -mutt-clearlyu arabic extra-medium-r-normal--17-120-100-100-p-103-fontspecific-0 + -mutt-clearlyu ligature-medium-r-normal--17-120-100-100-p-141-fontspecific-0 + +The Alternate Glyphs font contains additional glyph shapes that are needed +for certain languages. A second alternate glyph font will be provided later +for cases where a character has more than one commonly used alternate shape +(e.g. the Urdu heh). + +The PUA font contains extra glyphs that are useful for certain rendering pur- +poses. + +The Arabic Extra font contains the glyphs necessary for characters that don't +have all of their possible shapes encoded in ISO 10646. The glyphs are +roughly ordered according to the order of the characters in the ISO 10646 +standard. + +The Ligature font contains ligatures for various scripts that may be useful +for improved presentation of text. + +3.3 Standard scalable fonts + +XFree86 includes all the scalable fonts distributed with X11R6. + +3.3.1 Standard Type 1 fonts + +The IBM Courier set of fonts cover ISO 8859-1 and ISO 8859-2 as well as Adobe +Standard Encoding. These fonts have XLFD + + -adobe-courier-medium-*-*--0-0-0-0-m-0-*-* + +and reside in the font files + + /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/cour*.pfa + +The Adobe Utopia set of fonts only cover ISO 8859-1 as well as Adobe Standard +Encoding. These fonts have XLFD + + -adobe-utopia-*-*-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-1 + +and reside in the font files + + /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/UT*.pfa + +Finally, XFree86 also comes with Type 1 versions of Bitstream Courier and +Charter. These fonts have XLFD + + -bitstream-courier-*-*-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-iso8859-1 + -bitstream-charter-*-*-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-1 + +and reside in the font files + + /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/c*bt_.pfb + +3.3.2 Standard Speedo fonts + +XFree86 includes Speedo versions of the Bitstream Courier and Charter fonts. +In order to use these fonts, you should ensure that your X server is loading +the `Speedo' font backend; see Troubleshooting (section 2.2.5, page 1). + +These fonts cover all of ISO 8859-1 and almost all of ISO 8859-2. They have +XLFD name + + -bitstream-courier-*-*-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-*-* + -bitstream-charter-*-*-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-*-* + +and reside in the font files + + /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/font*.spd + +3.4 The Bigelow & Holmes Luxi family + +XFree86 includes the Luxi family of scalable fonts, in both TrueType and +Type 1 format. This family consists of the fonts Luxi Serif, with XLFD + + -b&h-luxi serif-medium-*-normal--*-*-*-*-p-*-*-* + +Luxi Sans, with XLFD + + -b&h-luxi sans-medium-*-normal--*-*-*-*-p-*-*-* + +and Luxi Mono, with XLFD + + -b&h-luxi mono-medium-*-normal--*-*-*-*-m-*-*-* + +Each of these fonts comes Roman, oblique, bold and bold oblique variants The +TrueType version have glyphs covering the basic ASCII Unicode range, the +Latin 1 range, as well as the Extended Latin range and some additional punc- +tuation characters. In particular, these fonts include all the glyphs needed +for ISO 8859 parts 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, 13 and 15, as well as all the glyphs in the +Adobe Standard encoding and the Windows 3.1 character set. + +The glyph coverage of the Type 1 versions is somewhat reduced, and only cov- +ers ISO 8859 parts 1, 2 and 15 as well as the Adobe Standard encoding. + +The Luxi fonts are original designs by Kris Holmes and Charles Bigelow. Luxi +fonts include seriffed, sans serif, and monospaced styles, in roman and +oblique, and normal and bold weights. The fonts share stem weight, x-height, +capital height, ascent and descent, for graphical harmony. + +The character width metrics of Luxi roman and bold fonts match those of core +fonts bundled with popular operating and window systems. + +The license terms for the Luxi fonts are included in the file `COPYRIGHT.BH', +as well as in the License document. + +Charles Bigelow and Kris Holmes from Bigelow and Holmes Inc. developed the +Luxi typeface designs in Ikarus digital format. + +URW++ Design and Development GmbH converted the Ikarus format fonts to True- +Type and Type1 font programs and implemented the grid-fitting "hints" and +kerning tables in the Luxi fonts. + +For more information, please contact <design@bigelowandholmes.com> or +<info@urwpp.de>, or consult the URW++ web site <URL:http://www.urwpp.de>. + +An earlier version of the Luxi fonts was made available under the name +Lucidux. This name should no longer be used due to trademark uncertainties, +and all traces of the Lucidux name have been removed from XFree86. + +4. More about core fonts + +This section describes XFree86-specific enhancements to the core X11 fonts +system. + +4.1 Core fonts and internationalisation + +The scalable font backends (Type 1, Speedo and TrueType) can automatically +re-encode fonts to the encoding specified in the XLFD in `fonts.dir'. For +example, a `fonts.dir' file can contain entries for the Type 1 Courier font +such as + + cour.pfa -adobe-courier-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-iso8859-1 + cour.pfa -adobe-courier-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-iso8859-2 + +which will lead to the font being recoded to ISO 8859-1 and ISO 8859-2 +respectively. + +4.1.1 The fontenc layer + +Three of the scalable backends (Type 1, Speedo, and the FreeType TrueType +backend) use a common fontenc layer for font re-encoding. This allows these +backends to share their encoding data, and allows simple configuration of new +locales independently of font type. + +Please note: the X-TrueType (X-TT) backend does not use the fontenc layer, +but instead uses its own method for font reencoding. If you are only inter- +ested in X-TT you may want to skip to Using Symbol Fonts (section 4.1.5, page +1), as the intervening information does not apply to X-TT. X-TT itself is +described in more detail in X-TrueType (section 4.2.3, page 1). + +In the fontenc layer, an encoding is defined by a name (such as iso8859-1), +possibly a number of aliases (alternate names), and an ordered collection of +mappings. A mapping defines the way the encoding can be mapped into one of +the target encodings known to fontenc; currently, these consist of Unicode, +Adobe glyph names, and arbitrary TrueType ``cmap''s. + +A number of encodings are hardwired into fontenc, and are therefore always +available; the hardcoded encodings cannot easily be redefined. These +include: + + o iso10646-1: Unicode; + + o iso8859-1: ISO Latin-1 (Western Europe); + + o iso8859-2: ISO Latin-2 (Eastern Europe); + + o iso8859-3: ISO Latin-3 (Southern Europe); + + o iso8859-4: ISO Latin-4 (Northern Europe); + + o iso8859-5: ISO Cyrillic; + + o iso8859-6: ISO Arabic; + + o iso8859-7: ISO Greek; + + o iso8859-8: ISO Hebrew; + + o iso8859-9: ISO Latin-5 (Turkish); + + o iso8859-10: ISO Latin-6 (Nordic); + + o iso8859-15: ISO Latin-9, or Latin-0 (Revised Western-European); + + o koi8-r: KOI8 Russian; + + o koi8-u: KOI8 Ukrainian (see RFC 2319); + + o koi8-ru: KOI8 Russian/Ukrainian; + + o koi8-uni: KOI8 ``Unified'' (Russian, Ukrainian, and Byelorussian); + + o koi8-e: KOI8 ``European,'' ISO-IR-111, or ECMA-Cyrillic; + + o microsoft-symbol and apple-roman: these are only likely to be useful + with TrueType symbol fonts. + +Additional encodings can be added by defining encoding files. When a font +encoding is requested that the fontenc layer doesn't know about, the backend +checks the directory in which the font file resides (not necessarily the +directory with fonts.dir!) for a file named `encodings.dir'. If found, this +file is scanned for the requested encoding, and the relevant encoding defini- +tion file is read in. The `mkfontdir' utility, when invoked with the `-e' +option followed by the name of a directory containing encoding files, can be +used to automatically build `encodings.dir' files. Please see the mkfont- +dir(1) manual page for more details. + +A number of encoding files for common encodings are included with XFree86. +Information on writing new encoding files can be found in Format of encodings +directory files (section 4.1.3, page 1) and Format of encoding files (section +4.1.4, page 1) later in this document. + +4.1.2 Backend-specific notes about fontenc + +4.1.2.1 The FreeType backend + +For TrueType and OpenType fonts, the FreeType backend scans the mappings in +order. Mappings with a target of PostScript are ignored; mappings with a +TrueType or Unicode target are checked against all the cmaps in the file. +The first applicable mapping is used. + +For Type 1 fonts, the FreeType backend first searches for a mapping with a +target of PostScript. If one is found, it is used. Otherwise, the backend +searches for a mapping with target Unicode, which is then composed with a +built-in table mapping codes to glyph names. Note that this table only cov- +ers part of the Unicode code points that have been assigned names by Adobe. + +Specifying an encoding value of adobe-fontspecific for a Type 1 font disables +the encoding mechanism. This is useful with symbol and incorrectly encoded +fonts (see Incorrectly encoded fonts (section 4.1.6, page 1) below). + +If a suitable mapping is not found, the FreeType backend defaults to +ISO 8859-1. + +4.1.2.2 Type 1 + +The Type 1 backend behaves similarly to the FreeType backend with Type 1 +fonts, except that it limits all encodings to 8-bit codes. + +4.1.2.3 Speedo + +The Speedo backend searches for a mapping with a target of Unicode, and uses +it if found. If none is found, the backend defaults to ISO 8859-1. + +The Speedo backend limits all encodings to 8-bit codes. + +4.1.3 Format of encoding directory files + +In order to use a font in an encoding that the font backend does not know +about, you need to have an `encodings.dir' file either in the same directory +as the font file used or in a system-wide location +(`/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/encodings/' by default). + +The `encodings.dir' file has a similar format to `fonts.dir'. Its first line +specifies the number of encodings, while every successive line has two +columns, the name of the encoding, and the name of the encoding file; this +can be relative to the current directory, or absolute. Every encoding name +should agree with the encoding name defined in the encoding file. For exam- +ple, + + 3 + mulearabic-0 /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/encodings/mulearabic-0.enc + mulearabic-1 /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/encodings/mulearabic-1.enc + mulearabic-2 /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/encodings/mulearabic-2.enc + +The name of an encoding must be specified in the encoding file's `STARTENCOD- +ING' or `ALIAS' line. It is not enough to create an `encodings.dir' entry. + +If your platform supports it (it probably does), encoding files may be com- +pressed or gzipped. + +The `encoding.dir' files are best maintained by the `mkfontdir' utility. +Please see the mkfontdir(1) manual page for more information. + +4.1.4 Format of encoding files + +The encoding files are ``free form,'' i.e. any string of whitespace is equiv- +alent to a single space. Keywords are parsed in a non-case-sensitive manner, +meaning that `size', `SIZE', and `SiZE' all parse as the same keyword; on the +other hand, case is significant in glyph names. + +Numbers can be written in decimal, as in `256', in hexadecimal, as in +`0x100', or in octal, as in `0400'. + +Comments are introduced by a hash sign `#'. A `#' may appear at any point in +a line, and all characters following the `#' are ignored, up to the end of +the line. + +The encoding file starts with the definition of the name of the encoding, and +possibly its alternate names (aliases): + + STARTENCODING mulearabic-0 + ALIAS arabic-0 + +The name of the encoding and its aliases should be suitable for use in an +XLFD font name, and therefore contain exactly one dash `-'. + +The encoding file may then optionally declare the size of the encoding. For +a linear encoding (such as ISO 8859-1), the SIZE line specifies the maximum +code plus one: + + SIZE 0x2B + +For a matrix encoding, it should specify two numbers. The first is the num- +ber of the last row plus one, the other, the highest column number plus one. +In the case of `jisx0208.1990-0' (JIS X 0208(1990), double-byte encoding, +high bit clear), it should be + + SIZE 0x75 0x80 + +In the case of a matrix encoding, a `FIRSTINDEX' line may be included to +specify the minimum glyph index in an encoding. The keyword `FIRSTINDEX' is +followed by two integers, the minimum row number followed by the minimum col- +umn number: + + FIRSTINDEX 0x20 0x20 + +In the case of a linear encoding, a `FIRSTINDEX' line is not very useful. If +for some reason however you chose to include on, it should be followed by a +single integer. + +Note that in most font backends inclusion of a `FIRSTINDEX' line has the side +effect of disabling default glyph generation, and this keyword should there- +fore be avoided unless absolutely necessary. + +Codes outside the region defined by the `SIZE' and `FIRSTINDEX' lines are +understood to be undefined. Encodings default to linear encoding with a size +of 256 (0x100). This means that you must declare the size of all 16 bit +encodings. + +What follows is one or more mapping sections. A mapping section starts with +a `STARTMAPPING' line stating the target of the mapping. The target may be +one of: + + o Unicode (ISO 10646): + + STARTMAPPING unicode + + o a given TrueType ``cmap'': + + STARTMAPPING cmap 3 1 + + o PostScript glyph names: + + STARTMAPPING postscript + +Every line in a mapping section maps one from the encoding being defined to +the target of the mapping. In mappings with a Unicode or TrueType mapping, +codes are mapped to codes: + + 0x21 0x0660 + 0x22 0x0661 + ... + +As an abbreviation, it is possible to map a contiguous range of codes in a +single line. A line consisting of three integers + + <it/start/ <it/end/ <it/target/ + +is an abbreviation for the range of lines + + start target + + start+1 target+1 + + ... + + end target+end-start + +For example, the line + + 0x2121 0x215F 0x8140 + +is an abbreviation for + + 0x2121 0x8140 + 0x2122 0x8141 + ... + 0x215F 0x817E + +Codes not listed are assumed to map through the identity (i.e. to the same +numerical value). In order to override this default mapping, you may specify +a range of codes to be undefined by using an `UNDEFINE' line: + + UNDEFINE 0x00 0x2A + +or, for a single code, + + UNDEFINE 0x1234 + +PostScript mappings are different. Every line in a PostScript mapping maps a +code to a glyph name + + 0x41 A + 0x42 B + ... + +and codes not explicitly listed are undefined. + +A mapping section ends with an ENDMAPPING line + + ENDMAPPING + +After all the mappings have been defined, the file ends with an ENDENCODING +line + + ENDENCODING + +In order to make future extensions to the format possible, lines starting +with an unknown keyword are silently ignored, as are mapping sections with an +unknown target. + +4.1.5 Using symbol fonts + +Type 1 symbol fonts should be installed using the adobe-fontspecific encod- +ing. + +In an ideal world, all TrueType symbol fonts would be installed using one of +the microsoft-symbol and apple-roman encodings. A number of symbol fonts, +however, are not marked as such; such fonts should be installed using +microsoft-cp1252, or, for older fonts, microsoft-win3.1. + +In order to guarantee consistent results (especially between Type 1 and True- +Type versions of the same font), it is possible to define a special encoding +for a given font. This has already been done for the ZapfDingbats font; see +the file `encodings/adobe-dingbats.enc'. + +4.1.6 Hints about using badly encoded fonts + +A number of text fonts are incorrectly encoded. Incorrect encoding is some- +times done by design, in order to make a font for an exotic script appear +like an ordinary Western text font on systems which are not easily extended +with new locale data. It is often the result of the font designer's laziness +or incompetence; for some reason, most people seem to find it easier to +invent idiosyncratic glyph names rather than follow the Adobe glyph list. + +There are two ways of dealing with such fonts: using them with the encoding +they were designed for, and creating an ad hoc encoding file. + +4.1.6.1 Using fonts with the designer's encoding + +In the case of Type 1 fonts, the font designer can specify a default encod- +ing; this encoding is requested by using the `adobe-fontspecific' encoding in +the XLFD name. Sometimes, the font designer omitted to specify a reasonable +default encoding, in which case you should experiment with `adobe-standard', +`iso8859-1', `microsoft-cp1252', and `microsoft-win3.1'. (The encoding +`microsoft-symbol' doesn't make sense for Type 1 fonts). + +TrueType fonts do not have a default encoding. However, most TrueType fonts +are designed with either Microsoft or Apple platforms in mind, so one of +`microsoft-symbol', `microsoft-cp1252', `microsoft-win3.1', or `apple-roman' +should yield reasonable results. + +4.1.6.2 Specifying an ad hoc encoding file + +It is always possible to define an encoding file to put the glyphs in a font +in any desired order. Again, see the `encodings/adobe-dingbats.enc' file to +see how this is done. + +4.1.6.3 Specifying font aliases + +By following the directions above, you will find yourself with a number of +fonts with unusual names --- with encodings such as `adobe-fontspecific', +`microsoft-win3.1' etc. In order to use these fonts with standard applica- +tions, it may be useful to remap them to their proper names. + +This is done by writing a `fonts.alias' file. The format of this file is very +simple: it consists of a series of lines each mapping an alias name to a font +name. A `fonts.alias' file might look as follows: + + "-ogonki-alamakota-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-2" \ + "-ogonki-alamakota-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-adobe-fontspecific" + +(both XLFD names on a single line). The syntax of the `fonts.alias' file is +more precisely described in the mkfontdir(1) manual page. + +4.2 Additional notes about scalable core fonts + +The FreeType backend (module `freetype', formerly known as xfsft) is able to +deal with both TrueType and Type 1 fonts. This puts it in conflict with the +X-TT and Type 1 backends respectively. + +If both the FreeType and the Type 1 backends are loaded, the FreeType backend +will be used for Type 1 fonts. If both the FreeType and X-TT backends are +loaded, X-TT will be used for TrueType fonts. + +4.2.1 Delayed glyph rasterisation + +Both FreeType and X-TT delay glyph rasterisation up to the time at which a +glyph is first used. For this reason, they only provide an approximate value +for the ``average width'' font property. + +Both backends also support an optimisation for character-cell fonts (fonts +with all glyph metrics equal, or terminal fonts). A font with an XLFD speci- +fying a character-cell spacing `c', as in + + -misc-mincho-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-jisx0208.1990-0 + +will not rasterise glyphs at metrics computation time, but instead trust the +font really to be a character-cell font. You are encouraged to make use of +this optimisation when useful, but be warned that not all monospaced fonts +are character-cell fonts. + +4.2.2 About the FreeType backend + +The FreeType backend (formerly xfsft) is a backend based on version 2 of the +FreeType library (see the FreeType web site <URL:http://www.freetype.org/>) +and has support for the ``fontenc'' style of internationalisation (see The +fontenc layer (section 4.1.1, page 1)). This backend supports TrueType font +files (`*.ttf'), OpenType font files (`*.otf'), TrueType Collections +(`*.ttc'), OpenType Collections (`*.otc') and Type 1 font files (`*.pfa' and +`*.pfb'). + +In order to access the faces in a TrueType Collection file, the face number +must be specified in the fonts.dir file before the filename within colons. +For example, + + :2:mincho.ttc -misc-mincho-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-jisx0208.1990-0 + +refers to face 2 in the `mincho.ttc' TrueType Collection file. + +The FreeType backend uses the fontenc layer in order to support recoding of +fonts; this was described in The fontenc layer (section 4.1.1, page 1) and +especially FreeType-specific notes about fontenc (section 4.1.2.1, page 1) +earlier in this document. + +4.2.3 About the X-TrueType TrueType backend + +The `X-TrueType' backend is a backend based on version 1 of the FreeType +library. X-TrueType doesn't use the `fontenc' layer for managing font encod- +ings, but instead uses its own database of encodings. + +X-TrueType extends the `fonts.dir' syntax with a number of options, collec- +tively known as `TTCap'. A `TTCap' entry follows the general syntax + + :option=value: + +and should be specified before the filename. + +The most useful TTCap option is used to specify the face number to use with +TTCs; this is the `fn' TTCap option. For example, face 2 of font file `min- +cho.ttc' is specified using: + + :fn=2:mincho.ttc -misc-mincho-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-jisx0208.1990-0 + +More information on the TTCap syntax, and on X-TrueType in general, may be +found on the X-TrueType home page <URL:http://x-tt.dsl.gr.jp/>. + +5. Appendix: background and terminology + +5.1 Characters and glyphs + +A computer text-processing system inputs keystrokes and outputs glyphs, small +pictures that are assembled on paper or on a computer screen. Keystrokes and +glyphs do not, in general, coincide: for example, if the system does generate +ligatures, then to the sequence of two keystrokes <f><i> will typically cor- +respond a single glyph. Similarly, if the system shapes Arabic glyphs in a +vaguely reasonable manner, then multiple different glyphs may correspond to a +single keystroke. + +The complex transformation rules from keystrokes to glyphs are usually fac- +tored into two simpler transformations, from keystrokes to characters and +from characters to glyphs. You may want to think of characters as the basic +unit of text that is stored e.g. in the buffer of your text editor. While +the definition of a character is intrinsically application-specific, a number +of standardised collections of characters have been defined. + +A coded character set is a set of characters together with a mapping from +integer codes --- known as codepoints --- to characters. Examples of coded +character sets include US-ASCII, ISO 8859-1, KOI8-R, and JIS X 0208(1990). + +A coded character set need not use 8 bit integers to index characters. Many +early systems used 6 bit character sets, while 16 bit (or more) character +sets are necessary for ideographic writing systems. + +5.2 Font files, fonts, and XLFD + +Traditionally, typographers speak about typefaces and founts. A typeface is +a particular style or design, such as Times Italic, while a fount is a +molten-lead incarnation of a given typeface at a given size. + +Digital fonts come in font files. A font file contains the information nec- +essary for generating glyphs of a given typeface, and applications using font +files may access glyph information in an arbitrary order. + +Digital fonts may consist of bitmap data, in which case they are said to be +bitmap fonts. They may also consist of a mathematical description of glyph +shapes, in which case they are said to be scalable fonts. Common formats for +scalable font files are Type 1 (sometimes incorrectly called ATM fonts or +PostScript fonts), TrueType and Speedo. + +The glyph data in a digital font needs to be indexed somehow. How this is +done depends on the font file format. In the case of Type 1 fonts, glyphs +are identified by glyph names. In the case of TrueType fonts, glyphs are +indexed by integers corresponding to one of a number of indexing schemes +(usually Unicode --- see below). + +The X11 core fonts system uses the data in a font file to generate font +instances, which are collections of glyphs at a given size indexed according +to a given encoding. + +X11 core font instances are usually specified using a notation known as the X +Logical Font Description (XLFD). An XLFD starts with a dash `-', and con- +sists of fourteen fields separated by dashes, for example: + + -adobe-courier-medium-r-normal--12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-1 + +Or particular interest are the last two fields `iso8859-1', which specify the +font instance's encoding. + +A scalable font is specified by an XLFD which contains zeroes instead of some +fields: + + -adobe-courier-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-iso8859-1 + +X11 font instances may also be specified by short name. Unlike an XLFD, a +short name has no structure and is simply a conventional name for a font +instance. Two short names are of particular interest, as the server will not +start if font instances with these names cannot be opened. These are +`fixed', which specifies the fallback font to use when the requested font +cannot be opened, and `cursor', which specifies the set of glyphs to be used +by the mouse pointer. + +Short names are usually implemented as aliases to XLFDs; the standard `fixed' +and `cursor' aliases are defined in + + /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/font/misc/fonts.alias + +5.3 Unicode + +Unicode (<URL:http://www.unicode.org>) is a coded character set with the goal +of uniquely identifying all characters for all scripts, current and histori- +cal. While Unicode was explicitly not designed as a glyph encoding scheme, +it is often possible to use it as such. + +Unicode is an open character set, meaning that codepoint assignments may be +added to Unicode at any time (once specified, though, an assignment can never +be changed). For this reason, a Unicode font will be sparse, meaning that it +only defines glyphs for a subset of the character registry of Unicode. + +The Unicode standard is defined in parallel with the international standard +ISO 10646. Assignments in the two standards are always equivalent, and we +often use the terms Unicode and ISO 10646 interchangeably. + +When used in the X11 core fonts system, Unicode-encoded fonts should have the +last two fields of their XLFD set to `iso10646-1'. + +6. References + +XFree86 comes with extensive documentation in the form of manual pages and +typeset documents. Before installing fonts, you really should read the font- +config(3) and mkfontdir(1) manual pages; other manual pages of interest +include X(7), Xserver(1), xset(1), Xft(3), xlsfonts(1) and showfont(1). In +addition, you may want to read the X Logical Font Description document, by +Jim Flowers, which is provided in the file `xc/doc/xlfd.PS.Z'. + +The latest released version of the XFree86 documentation (including this doc- +ument and all manual pages) is available as current XFree86 documentation +<URL:http://www.xfree86.org/current/>. + +The comp.fonts FAQ <URL:http://www.netmeg.net/faq/computers/fonts/>, which is +unfortunately no longer being maintained, contains a wealth of information +about digital fonts. + +Xft and Fontconfig are described on Keith Packard's Fontconfig site +<URL:http://www.fontconfig.org>. + +The xfsft home page <URL:http://www.dcs.ed.ac.uk/home/jec/programs/xfsft/> +has been superseded by this document, and is now obsolete; you may however +still find some of the information that it contains useful.

Fixes for all known bugs in the CompoundText parser and generator, + including: + * While adding a charset: + - Adding a charset with two different escape sequences (e.g. + ISO-8859-14) led to broken behaviour of the converter. Moreover + the second added would have priority over the first added. + - If an invalid escape sequence was detected by _XlcParseCharSet, it + was still used when generating compound text. + - Extended segment charsets with varying number of bytes per character + were treated like those with 1 byte per character. + - _XlcAddCT failed to copy its ct_sequence argument, thus leading to + bugs when this argument was a dynamically allocated string. + - Missing detection of different charsets having the same escape + sequence. + * Parsing Compound Text: + - The functions _XlcParseCT and _XlcGetCTInfo did not perform range + checks on the strings being parsed. Danger of core dump through + out-of-bounds string access if a malicious client provides malformed + text. + - Builtin extended segment charsets were not recognized because the + strncmp in _XlcGetCTInfo was returning false most of the time, due + to the embedded length bytes. + - Extended segment charsets in general would not be deactivated after + the specified number of bytes. + - In _XlcCheckCTSequence, extended segments with invalid embedded + length bytes would lead to out-of-bounds string accesses as well. + - Unrecognized escape sequences did not lead to a return value > 0. + - Left-to-right and right-to-left indicators (starting with 0x9b) were + just ignored, without leading to a return value > 0. + - If the source string was larger than the intermediate buffer, + multibyte characters could be split into pieces, leading to + conversion errors. + * Generating Compound Text: + - The length embedded in an extended segment prefix was always wrong. + - Long strings could give rise to extended segments with a length that + doesn't fit in the allowed 14 bits. + - After an extended segment, GL or GR designators would unnecessarily + be repeated. + - Bytes in the range 0x81..0x88, 0x8b..0x9a, 0x9c..0x9f in multibyte + encodings could not be output, would be thrown away. + - Byte 0x9b could not be output in the UTF-8 charset. + * udcInf.c was generating invalid Compound Text (invalid length in + extended segment). + * lcConv.c: If in the indirect converter, the first step led to no + output, the second step would still be called, possibly leading to + out-of-bounds accesses. + * lcUTF8.c: had knowledge about JISX0208.1983-0 but not about + JISX0208.1990-0. + (#4333, Bruno Haible). +1082.

Somebody else might have better +methods on doing it. This person is therefore invited to share this +experience with the rest of the world by adding it here. + +Paul Flinders has made some patches to gdb to add support for loadable +modules. This version of gdb is currently available as binary for +Linux/x86 on Paul's web site: + + www.dawa.demon.co.uk/xfree-gdb + +This web-site also contains the patches to gdb 4.18 so you may port it +to other platforms. + +It loads the module symbols and supports all gdb features like +breakpointing, disassembling and single stepping. It also shows the +exact location of a signal 11. Paul has fixed the code so that all of +this is working even if using modules compiled without -g. You can +find his latest version on his web site. + +If no module aware gdb is available the following hints might help: + +1. Use remote login. This can be done thru a network connection or + simply by connecting a serial console. This enables you to watch + the Xservers output while running set breakpoints with gdb etc. + Don't even try to run the Xserver from a system console. Whenever + something happens gdb waits for input. However the Xserver has + locked the system console including the keyboard, therefore you'll + never be able to send any input to gdb. Even if your process + doesn't crash or you haven't set any breakpoints a vt switch can be + hazardous: When doing vt switching a signal is sent; unless you did + + gdb> handle SIGUSR1 nostop + + gdb waits for you to continue the program which cannot happen as + you don't have access to gdb's console. + +2. You can compile any source file with debugging symbols to obtain + more information about where an error occurred. Simply go to the + directory which holds the corresponding object file and do: + + # rm <file>.o + # xc/config/util/makeg.sh <file>.o + + After relinking the server or module gdb is able to obtain the + necessary debugging information and will show the exact line in the + source where the error ccurred. See also: + xc/config/util/makeg.man. + +3. In some cases it might be useful to have the assembler output of a + compiled source file. This can be obtained by doing: + + # make <file>.s + + or + + # xc/config/util/makeg.sh <file>.s + + Make will use exactly the same rules it uses for building *.o files. + +4. In some cases it might be useful to set breakpoints in modules. If + no module aware gdb is available you should add a call to one of + the three dummy breakpoint functions + + xf86Break1(), xf86Break2() and xf86Break3() + + to the source file and recompile the module. You now just have to + set a breakpoint onto the appropriate dummy functions. These + functions are located in the core part of the server and therefore + will be available any time. + +5. Without module support gdb is not able to print the function where + an error occurred in a module. + + If you get a line like: + + (gdb) bt + #0 0x823b4f5 in ?? () + .... + + You may obtain the function the address belongs to by calling + LoaderPrintSymbol(): + + (gdb) call LoaderPrintSymbol(0x823b4f5) + + The symbol returned might not always be the name of the function + which contains the address. In case of static functions the symbol + is not known to the loader. However LoaderPrintSymbol() will print + the nearest known function and the offset from its start. You may + easily find the exact location of the address if you do: + + # objdump --disassemble <file>.o + + <file>.o is the name of the object file containing the symbol printed. + +6. Locating static symbols in modules is simpler if the module is a + single object file instead of a library. Such a object file can + easily be build from a library: # mkdir tmp # cd tmp; ar x + module-path/<libname>.a # ld -r *.o -o module-path/<name>.o + + When calling LoaderPrintSymbol() the closes public symbol will be + printed together with the offset from the symbol's address. If a + static symbol comes before the first public symbol in a module The + following trick may help: + + create a file 1-<name>.c in tmp/ + containing: + void Dummy-<name>() {} + + Compile it: + + # gcc -c 1-<name>.c + + and do the link step above. + + This way Dummy-<name>() will be the first public function in the + module. All addresses in static function can now be printed + relatively to this address if no other public function comes before + this static one. + +7. In some situations it is quite helpful to add debugging symbols to + the binary. This can be done per object file. Simply remove the + object file and do + + # makeg + + When looking for a bug in a module these debugging infos can be + very helpful: Calling LoaderPrintSymbol() as described above will + return a function and an offset giving the exact location of the + address with respect to this function entry point. When + disassembling an object file with debugging symbols: # objdump -d + -l <file>.o one will receive a disassembled output containing line + number information. Thus one can locate the exact line of code + where the error occurred. + +8. To quickly trace the value of a variable declared in a module three + dummy variables have been added to the core part: + + CARD32 xf86DummyVar1; + CARD32 xf86DummyVar2; + CARD32 xf86DummyVar3; + + The variable can be assigned to one of them. One can then use gdb + to return the value of this variable: + + gdb> p /x xf86DummyVar1 + +9. Sometimes it might be useful to check how the preprocessor replaced + symbols. One can obtain a preprocessed version of the source file + by doing: + + make <filename>.i + + This will generate a preprocessed source in <filename>.i. + +10. xfree() can catch if one tries to free a memory range twice. You + will get the message: + + Xalloc error: range already freed in Xrealloc() :-( + + To find the location from which xfree() was called one can + breakpoint on XfreeTrap(). The backtrace should show the origin of the + call this call. + +11. To access mapped physical memory the following functions might be + useful. + + These may be used to access physical memory that was mapped using + the flags VIDMEM_FRAMEBUFFER or VIDMEM_MMIO32: + + CARD8 xf86PeekFb8(CARD8 *p); + CARD16 xf86PeekFb16(CARD16 *p); + CARD32 xf86PeekFb32(CARD32 *p); + void xf86PokeFb8(CARD8 *p, CARD8 v); + void xf86PokeFb16(CARD16 *p, CARD16 v); + void xf86PokeFb32(CARD16 *p, CARD32 v); + + Physical memory which was mapped by setting VIDMEM_MMIO should be + accessed using the following.

The bulk of this note is devoted to enumerating what +remains to be done, along with other notes, broken down into various broad +categories. + +SPARC SunOS (aka Solaris) +------------------------- +- An overview of this XFree86 port is available in README.Solaris. +- The keyboard map code in hw/xfree86/os-support/sunos/sun_kbdEv.c needs + to be extended to handle more than only the sun5 keyboard I targeted it + for. Even for the sun5, the map is incomplete as several keys are not + mapped. What is there is just barely usable. +- On exit, the server will zero out /dev/fb, but that might not be the + right thing to do for all primary adapters. This does however + appear to emulate the behaviour of Sun's commercial servers. It also + eliminates the need for output drivers to save and restore video memory + contents. (They still need to save/restore the mode timing however.) + This also chimes into a long-standing XFree86 policy to not save/restore + video memory contents if the mode on entry is found to be non-VGA, a + policy several existing drivers comply with. +- The SBUS drivers (sunbw2, suncg14, suncg3, suncg6, sunffb, sunleo and + suntcx), the common layer's SBUS code and the fbdev driver have all + only been compile tested. There are likely to be Linux'isms within + them that remain to be dealt with. +- It still needs to be verified whether or not this work adversely + affected support for ix86 Solaris. + +UltraSPARC Linux +---------------- +- Although this code can be compiled using any Linux/SPARC64 kernel, it + can only run successfully using 2.4.12 or later. +- I haven't had time to sufficiently dig into XKB to properly configure it + for sun5 keyboards. Given XFree86 on Linux/SPARC has been around for a + while, it's likely someone has already done this, and I'd appreciate + receiving a copy of a working XF86Config input section. + +PowerPC Linux +------------- +- As mentioned above, kernel work is in progress to port this PCI scheme + to Linux/PowerPC. +- Aside from kernel work, the inX() and outX() definitions in compiler.h + will need to be changed to do something akin to their SPARC definitions, + i.e. consider their port argument to be a virtual address. + +Other Linux ports to multi-domain architectures +----------------------------------------------- +- Comments in os-support/bus/linuxPci.c document the kernel interface + required to port these changes. In short, Linux ports, such as Alpha + and mips, should follow SPARC and PowerPC's lead in providing support to + mmap() PCI devices through their /proc/bus/pci pseudo-files and to treat + such requests for host bridges as requests to mmap() space provided by + these bridges. + +Other OS's +---------- +- In the right hands, either linuxPci.c or sparcPci.c can be used as a + guide for what would need to be done to port this scheme to other OS's. + Perhaps the largest difference between the two (in terms of interface to + the common layer) is that the SunOS port includes internally generated + domain numbers in PCITAG's, whereas the Linux port doesn't need to. The + remainder of the PCI code (which is OS-independent) can handle either + scheme. +- Required entry points are xf86GetPciDomain(), xf86MapDomainMemory(), + xf86MapDomainIO() and xf86ReadDomainMemory(). Replacements for + xf86BusAccWindowsFromOS(), xf86PciBusAccWindowsFromOS() and + xf86AccResFromOS() might also be required. +- Development of these changes has detected the fact that the XFree86 port + to the PowerMax OS is broken, and has been for some time, i.e. since + shortly after its introduction, back in the 3.9* days. + +SPARC PCI (OS-independent) +-------------------------- +- The "Simba" PCI-to-PCI bridge used in SPARC's does not implement VGA + routing, as defined in the PCI specs. Fortunately, OpenPROM seems to + always route VGA resources to the bus with PCI connectors, but this also + causes the common layer to not mark any PCI adapter as primary. + +Multiple PCI domains (architecture- and OS-independent) +------------------------------------------------------- +- This implementation assumes every host-to-PCI bridge provides access to + a separate PCI domain. Each such domain provides three different + "address" spaces: PCI configuration, I/O and memory. The + implementation can also deal with situations where more than one PCI + domain share (different subsets of) the same PCI configuration space. I + have unconfirmed information that suggests it might be necessary to also + allow the sharing of PCI memory spaces. +- This implementation also assumes the CPU's physical address space + includes the entirety of each domain's I/O and memory spaces. I know + this'll need to be changed to deal with the so-called UniNorth bridge, + found on PowerPC's, which allows access to only a subset of the memory + space behind it. +- Ideally, the common layer should mark as primary up to one PCI adapter + per domain. This has yet to be done. +- Something needs to be done about PCI master aborts on primary buses. + For details on this, see my long-winded diatribe in sparcPci.c, and + related comments in linuxPci.c. Suffice it to say here that I see the + eventual implementation of host bridge drivers within XFree86 as + unavoidable at this point. +- DGA is broken on multi-domain platforms. The information passed to the + client to locate the framebuffer still needs to be revised. The best way + to deal with this is to change all drivers' OpenFramebuffer() function to + call a common layer routine to set the device name and displacements to be + returned to the DGA client. + +Output drivers +-------------- +Most drivers currently used on ix86 need(ed) source code changes. +- Calls to xf86ReadBIOS() and xf86MapVidMem() were replaced with calls to + xf86ReadDomainMemory() and xf86MapDomainMemory() respectively. Except + for the "ati" and "atimisc" modules, this has already been done. +- All ix86-style I/O port numbers need to be declared as an IOADDRESS, a + type defined in xf86Pci.h as "unsigned long". Such port numbers also + need to be offset by a displacement which is also defined as an + IOADDRESS. Before a driver's PreInit() is called, the common layer + makes this displacement available in ScrnInfoRec.domainIOBase. For + single-domain architectures, such as ix86, domainIOBase will always be + zero. Current use of vgaHWRec.PIOOffset has also been adjusted + accordingly. Some drivers have been changed to keep a copy of this + displacement in their private structure. Internally, an IOADDRESS is + actually a pointer that has been recasted to an unsigned long, but the + common layer "hides" this fact from the driver ABI, which means that I/O + port numbers, as seen by drivers, remain as integers rather than + addresses. Aside from the ati and atimisc modules, s3, sis and tseng + are the only modules left whose I/O still needs to be converted (I've + temporarily run out of steam). +- Note that these conversions are not necessarily sufficient to produce + drivers that will work on any given multi-domain architecture. A driver + that, for example, had endianness problems, still does. But, at least, + these conversions, along with the supporting common layer changes, make + PCI drivers more widely amenable to porting. +- rdinx(), wrinx(), modinx(), testrg(), testinx() and testinx2() are not + given enough information to allow for the relocation of their I/O. They + are consequently being deleted. The apm and ark drivers, the only + remaining callers of the first three, have been changed to use local + definitions instead. The last three (test*()) were already unused. +- As a temporary measure, these changes completely disable ISA-style + probing on SPARC's and PowerPC's. This means that driver calls to + xf86MatchIsaInstances(), while still valid, will always return detection + failure on SPARC's and PowerPC's. This will be dealt with when a more + general master abort handling scheme is implemented. +- I need to make a decision about the master abort issues mentionned above + before I can convert the "ati" and "atimisc" modules. Consequently, + these modules still need to be compiled with -DAVOID_CPIO on + multi-domain architectures, and support for Mach64 variants as + non-primary heads is not yet available. + +$XFree86: xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/Domain.note,v 1.2 2002/01/25 21:55:49 tsi Exp $ diff --git a/hw/xfree86/doc/devel/RAC.Notes b/hw/xfree86/doc/devel/RAC.Notes new file mode 100644 index 000000000..0aec9d795 --- /dev/null +++ b/hw/xfree86/doc/devel/RAC.Notes @@ -0,0 +1,696 @@ +I. Abstract +=========== + +Graphics devices are accessed thru 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. Up to version 3.3 of +XFree86 only a single graphics device could be driven. Therfore there +was no need to address the issue of sharing such memory or I/O ranges +among several devices. Starting with version 4.0 XFree86 is capable of +driving more than one graphics interface in a multi-head environment. +Therefore a mechanism needed to be designed which was capable of +controlling the sharing the access to memory and I/O ranges. In this +document we describe to use of the RAC (Resource Access Control) +system in the XFree86 server which provides the service of controlling +access to interface resources. + +II. Introduction +================ + +Terms and definitions: + +II.1. Bus +--------- + +'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, MC and VL buses are currently treated like +ISA buses). 'Bus' may always 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 RACY as they +require specific drivers. + +II.2. Entity +------------ + +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. + +II.3. Resource +-------------- + + '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. Resource 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 condition: + + address & mask == base + +with base & mask == base. Resources addressed in such a way are +considered sparse resources. + + +II.4. Server States +------------------ + +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 any entity resource is under resource access control. +During OPERATING state only those entities are controlled which +actually have shared resources that conflict with others. The +determination which entity is to be placed under RAC during OPERATING +state takes place after ScreenInit() during the first server +generation. This doesn't apply if only one screen is active: in this +case no RAC is needed and the screen is simply left enabled while the +server is active. + + +III. Theory of operation +======================== + +III.1. General +-------------- + +The common level 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. + + The user should provide a device section in XF86Config for each +graphics device installed in his system. Each such entity which is +never to be used as X display device might be marked as inactive by +adding the keyword "Inactive" to the device section. + +When the Probe() 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 Probe() 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 EntityInit(), +EntityLeave() and EntityEnter() function. + +EntityInit() 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 EntityInit(), EntityEnter() and EntityLeave() 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 EntityInit() or EntityEnter() 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 'ResInit' so that they can be +removed from the resource list after processing all EntityInit() +functions. EntityEnter() 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 +EntityInit() 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. EntityLeave() 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 PreInit() phase each driver should check if any sharable resources +it has registered during Probe() has been denied and take appropriate +action which could simply be to fail. If it needs to access resources +it has disabled during EntitySetup() it can do so provided it has +registered these and will disable them before returning from +PreInit(). 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 +ScreenInit(), this is not desirable. + +Following PreInit() 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 ScreenInit() +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 ScreenInit() 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: + +a. 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 (IO or MEM). + +b. A resource marked 'disabled' during OPERATING state will be ignored + entirely. + +c. 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. + +d. 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. + +The driver has the choice among different ways to control access to +certain resources: + +a. It can relay 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. + +b. 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 PreInit() stage. + Since the replacement functions are registered in PreInit() 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. + +c. 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. + +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 EnableAccess() function is called before +control is passed on. EnableAccess() 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, EnableAccess() determines +which resource types (MEM,IO) 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. + +III.3. Resource Types +--------------------- + +Resource have certain properties. When registering resources each +range is accompanied by a flag consisting of the or'ed flags of the +different properties the resource has. Each resource range may be +classified according to + +- its physical properties ie. if it addresses + memory (ResMem) or + I/O space (ResIo), +- if it addresses a + block (ResBlock) or + sparse (ResSparse) + range, +- its access properties. + +There are two known access properties: + +- ResExclusive + for resources which may not be shared with any other device and +- ResShared + for resources which can be disabled and therefore can be shared. + +If it is desirable to test a resource against any type a generic +access type 'ResAny' 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 (ResUnused) or during OPERATING state +(ResUnusedOpr). A resource only visible during the init functions (ie. +EntityInit(), EntityEnter() and EntityLeave() should be registered +with the flag 'ResInit'. A resource that might conflict with +background resource ranges may be flagged with 'ResBios'. 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 common/sf86Resources.h. + +IV. Available Functions +======================= + +The functions provided for resource management will be listed in order +of use in the driver. + +IV.1. Probe phase +----------------- + +In this stage 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 +XF86Config file to the devices: + + int xf86MatchPciInstances(const char *driverName, int vendorID, + SymTabPtr chipsets, PciChipsets *PCIchipsets, + GDevPtr *devList, int numDevs, DriverPtr drvp, + int **foundEntities); + + int xf86MatchIsaInstances(const char *driverName, SymTabPtr chipsets, + IsaChipsets *ISAchipsets, DriverPtr drvp, + FindIsaDevProc FindIsaDevice, GDevPtr *devList, + int numDevs, int **foundEntities); + +Both functions return the number of matched entities and their indices +in foundEntities list. + +They make use of several sub functions which are also available on the +driver level: + + Bool xf86ComparePciBusString(const char *busID, int bus, + int device, int func); + +and + + Bool xf86ParseIsaBusString(const char *busID); + +are called to interpret the busID in the device section. The functions: + + int xf86ClaimPciSlot(int bus, int device, int func, DriverPtr drvp, + int chipset, GDevPtr dev, Bool active); + + int xf86ClaimIsaSlot(DriverPtr drvp, int chipset, GDevPtr dev, Bool + active); + +are used to allocate the entities and initialize their data +structures. Both functions return the index of the newly allocated +entity record or (-1) should the function fail. Before probing an ISA +card + + Bool xf86IsPrimaryIsa(); + +gets called to determine if the primary card was not detected on the +PCI bus. + +Two helper functions are provided to aid configuring entities: + + Bool xf86ConfigActivePciEntity(ScrnInfoPtr pScrn, int entityIndex, + PciChipsets *p_chip, resList res, + EntityProc init, EntityProc enter, + EntityProc leave, pointer private); + Bool xf86ConfigActiveIsaEntity(ScrnInfoPtr pScrn, int entityIndex, + IsaChipsets *i_chip, resList res, + EntityProc init, EntityProc enter, + EntityProc leave, pointer private); + +They are used to register the init/enter/leave functions described +above as well as the non-relocatable resources. Generally the list of +fixed resources is obtained from the Isa/PciChipsets lists. However +an additional list of resources may be passed. Generally this is not +required. The init/enter/leave functions have to be of type + + typedef void (*EntityProc)(int entityIndex,pointer private); + +They are passed the entity index and a pointer to a private scratch +area. This are can be set up during Probe() and its address can be +passed to xf86ConfigActiveIsaEntity() xf86ConfigActivePciEntity() as +the last argument. + +These helper functions use: + + void xf86ClaimFixedResources(resList list, int entityIndex); + + To register the non relocatable resources which cannot be disabled + and which therefore would cause the server to fail immediately if + they were found to conflict. It also records non-relocatable but + sharable resources for processing after the Probe() phase. + + Bool xf86SetEntityFuncs(int entityIndex, EntityProc init, + EntityProc enter, EntityProc leave, pointer); + + This function registers the init/enter/leave() functions along with + the pointer to their private area to the entity. + + void xf86AddEntityToScreen(ScrnInfoPtr pScrn, int entityIndex); + + adds the entity to the screen. + +These functions are also available on the driver level. A detailed +Probe() function is listed below. For most drivers this can be used +with little change. + +Please note that VGA resources have to be claimed in Probe() +phase. Otherwise they are not routed to the bus. + +IV.2. PreInit() phase +--------------------- + +During this phase the remaining resource should be registered. +PreInit() should call + + EntityInfoPtr xf86GetEntityInfo(int entityIndex); + +To obtain a pointer to an EntityInfoRec for each entity it is able to +drive and check if any resource are listed in 'resources'. These have +been rejected in the post-Probe() phase. The driver should decide if +it can continue without using these or if it should fail. The pointer +to the EntityInfoRec should be freed if not needed any more. + +Several functions are provided to simplify resource registration: + + Bool xf86IsEntityPrimary(int entityIndex); + +is used to determine if the entity is the display device that is used +during boot-up and text mode. + + Bool xf86IsScreenPrimary(int scrnIndex); + +finds out if the primary entity is registered for the screen with +specified index. + + pciVideoPtr xf86GetPciInfoForEntity(int entityIndex); + +returns a pointer to the pciVideoRec of the specified entity. If the +entity is not a PCI device NULL is returned. + +The primary function for registration of resources is + + resPtr xf86RegisterResources(int entityIndex, resList list, int access); + +it tries to register the resources in 'list'. If list is NULL 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 (ResShared) 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 0 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 move +the resource to different locations. In case of PCI bus entities this +is done by passing the list of failed resources to + + resPtr xf86ReallocatePciResources(int entityIndex, resPtr pRes); + +this function returns a list of reallocated resource. This list needs +to be passed to xf86RegisterResources() again to be registered with +the broker. + +Two functions are provided to obtain a resource range of a given type: + + resRange xf86GetBlock(long type, memType size, + memType window_start, memType window_end, + memType align_mask, resPtr avoid); + resRange xf86GetSparse(long type, unsigned long fixed_bits, + unsigned long decode_mask, unsigned long address_mask, + resPtr avoid); + +The first one tries to find a block range of size 'size' and type +'type' in a window bound by window_start and window_end with the +alignment specified in alignment mask. Optionally a list of resource +ranges which should be avoided inside this window can be passed. On +failure it will return a zero range of type 'ResEnd'. + +The latter function does the same for sparse resources. A spares range +is determined by to parameters: the mask and the base value. An +address satisfying + + mask & address == base + +belongs to the specific spares range. 'mask' and 'base' themselves +have to satisfy: + + mask & base == base. + +Here three values have to be specified: the address mask which marks +all bits of the mask part of the address, the decode_mask which masks +out the bits which are hard coded 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 'ResEnd'. Optionally it might be +passed a list of resource ranges to avoid. + +Certain 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: + + Bool xf86FixPciResource(int entityIndex, unsigned int prt, CARD32 alignment, + long type); + +is used for that. The parameter prt contains the number of the PCI +base register that needs to be modified. A value of 6 refers to the +BIOS base register. The size is specified in the alignment +register. Since PCI resources need to span an integral range of the +size 2^n 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 'ResShared'. The resource +broker needs to know that to find a matching resource range. This +function should be called before calling xf86RegisterResources(). + + Bool xf86CheckPciMemBase(pciVideoPtr pPci, unsigned long base); + +checks that the memory base value specified in base matches one of the +PCI base address register values for the given PCI device. + +The driver may replace the generic access control functions for an +entity by it's own ones. + + void xf86SetAccessFuncs(EntityInfoPtr pEnt, xf86SetAccessFuncPtr funcs, + xf86SetAccessFuncPtr oldFuncs); + + with: + + typedef struct { + xf86AccessPtr mem; + xf86AccessPtr io; + xf86AccessPtr io_mem; + } xf86SetAccessFuncRec, *xf86SetAccessFuncPtr; + +is used for that. 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 +NULL value is passed as third argument it is interpreted as an address +where to store the old access records. If the third argument is NULL +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 his 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. + +To find out if specific resource range is conflicting with another +resource + + memType xf86ChkConflict(resRange *rgp, int entityIndex); + +may be called. If a non-zero value is returned a conflict is found. + + resPtr xf86SetOperatingState(resList list, int entityIndex, int mask); + +is used to set the state of a resource during OPERATING state. 'list' +holds a list to which 'mask' is to be applied. The parameter 'mask' +may have the value 'ResUnusedOpr' and 'ResDisableOpr'. The first one +should be used if a resource isn't used during OPERATING state however +decoded by the device while the latter one indicates that the resource +is not decoded during OPERATING state. Note that the resource ranges +have to match those specified during registration. If a range has been +specified starting at A and ending at B and suppose C us a value +satisfying A < C < B one may not specify the resource range (A,B) by +splitting it into two ranges (A,C) and (C,B). + +Two functions are provided for special cases: + + void xf86RemoveEntityFromScreen(ScrnInfoPtr pScrn, int entityIndex); + +may be used to remove an entity from a screen. This only makes sense +if a screen has more than one entity assigned or the screen is to be +deleted. No test is made if the screen has any entities left. + + void xf86DeallocateResourcesForEntity(int entityIndex, long type); + +deallocates all resources of a given type registered for a certain +entity from the resource broker list. + +IV.3. ScreenInit() phase +------------------------ + +Setting up the rac flags is all that remains to do in ScreenInit() +phase (Note that these flags might also be set up in PreInit() phase). +The ScrnInfoRec has separate flags for memory and PIO access: +racIoFlags and racMemFlags. They specifies which graphics operations +might require the use of resources which might be disabled for some +reason. Note that even exclusive resources might be disabled if they +are disabled along with shared resources. For example if a driver has +registered the VGA PIO resources and lets the common level disable +these by disabling PIO access in PCI config space (the standard way), +exclusive PCI PIO ranges will also be disabled.

Introduction + +This document describes how to download, compile and install the DRI. The +DRI provides 3D graphics hardware acceleration for the XFree86 project. This +information is intended for experienced Linux developers. Beginners are +probably better off installing precompiled packages. + +Edits, corrections and updates to this document may be mailed to <brian@tung- +stengraphics.com>. + +Last updated on 13 February 2002 by Brian Paul. + +3. Prerequisites + +You'll need the following: + + o An installation of XFree86 4.1 or later. The DRI tree has been pruned + down to minimize its size. But in order to build the DRI tree you need + to have recent X header files, etc. already installed. If you don't + have XFree86 4.1 (or later) installed you can probably install it from + RPMs (or another package format). Or, you can download XFree86 as + sources and compile/install it yourself. + + o At least 200MB of free disk space. If you compile for debugging (the -g + option) then you'll need about 600MB. + + o GCC compiler and related tools. + + o ssh (secure shell) if you're a DRI developer and don't want to use + anonymous CVS download. + + o A 2.4.x Linux Kernel. See below for details. + + o FreeBSD support is not currently being maintained and may not work. + +The DRI 3D drivers generally work on systems with Intel or AMD CPUs. How- +ever, limited support for Alpha and PowerPC support is underway. + +For 3dfx Voodoo hardware, you'll also need the Glide3 runtime library +(libglide3-v3.so for Voodoo3 or libglide3-v5.so for Voodoo4/5). These can be +downloaded from the DRI website. You can compile them yourself, but it's +often a painful process. + +For Matrox G200/G400, Intel i810/i830 or ATI Rage128/Radeon hardware, you'll +also need AGP support in your Linux kernel, either built-in or as a loadable +module. + +4. Linux Kernel Preparation + +Only the Linux 2.4.x kernels are currently supported by the DRI hardware +drivers. 2.5.x kernels may work, but aren't tested. + +Most of the DRI drivers require AGP support and using Intel Pentium III SSE +optimizations also requires an up-to-date Linux kernel. Configuring your +kernel correctly is very important, as features such as SSE optimizations +will be disabled if your kernel does not support them. Thus, if you have a +Pentium III processor, you must configure your kernel for the Pentium III +processor family. + +Building a new Linux kernel can be difficult for beginners but there are +resources on the Internet to help. This document assumes experience with +configuring, building and installing Linux kernels. + +Linux kernels can be downloaded from www.kernel.org + +Here are the basic steps for kernel setup. + + o Download the needed kernel and put it in /usr/src. Create a directory + for the source and unpack it. For example: + + cd /usr/src + rm -f linux + mkdir linux-2.4.x + ln -s linux-2.4.x linux + bzcat linux-2.4.x.tar.bz2 | tar xf - + + It is critical that /usr/src/linux point to your new kernel sources, + otherwise the kernel headers will not be used when building the DRI. + This will almost certainly cause compilation problems. + + o Read /usr/src/linux/Documentation/Changes. This file lists the minimum + requirements for all software packages required to build the kernel. + You must upgrade at least gcc, make, binutils and modutils to at least + the versions specified in this file. The other packages may not be + needed. If you are upgrading from Linux 2.2.x you must upgrade your + modutils package for Linux 2.4.x. + + o Configure your kernel. You might, for example, use make menuconfig and + do the following: + + o Go to Code maturity level options + + o Enable Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers + + o hit ESC to return to the top-level menu + + o Go to Processor type and features + + o Select your processor type from Processor Family + + o hit ESC to return to the top-level menu + + o Go to Character devices + + o Disable Direct Rendering Manager (XFree86 DRI support) since we'll + use the DRI code from the XFree86/DRI tree and will compile it + there. + + o Go to /dev/agpgart (AGP Support) (EXPERIMENTAL) (NEW) + + o Hit SPACE twice to build AGP support into the kernel + + o Enable all chipsets' support for AGP + + o It's recommended that you turn on MTRRs under Processor type and + Features, but not required. + + o Configure the rest of the kernel as required for your system (i.e. Eth- + ernet, SCSI, etc) + + o Exit, saving your kernel configuration. + + o Edit your /etc/lilo.conf file. Make sure you have an image entry as + follows (or similar): + + image=/boot/vmlinuz + label=linux.2.4.x + read-only + root=/dev/hda1 + + The important part is that you have /boot/vmlinuz without a trailing + version number. If this is the first entry in your /etc/lilo.conf AND + you haven't set a default, then this will be your default kernel. + + o Compile the new kernel. + + cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.x + make dep + make bzImage + make modules + make modules_install + make install + + Note that last make command will automatically run lilo for you. + + o Now reboot to use the new kernel. + +5. CPU Architectures + +In general, nothing special has to be done to use the DRI on different CPU +architectures. There are, however, a few optimizations that are CPU-depen- +dent. Mesa will determine at runtime which CPU-dependent optimizations +should be used and enable them where appropriate. + +5.1 Intel Pentium III Features + +The Pentium III SSE instructions are used in optimized vertex transformation +functions in the Mesa-based DRI drivers. On Linux, SSE requires a recent +kernel (such as 2.4.0-test11 or later) both at compile time and runtime. + +5.2 AMD 3DNow! Features + +AMD's 3DNow! instructions are used in optimized vertex transformation func- +tions in the Mesa-based DRI drivers. 3DNow! is supported in most versions of +Linux. + +5.3 Alpha Features + +On newer Alpha processors a significant performance increase can be seen with +the addition of the -mcpu= option to GCC. This option is dependent on the +architecture of the processor. For example, -mcpu=ev6 will build specifi- +cally for the EV6 based AXP's, giving both byte and word alignment access to +the DRI/Mesa drivers. + +To enable this optimization edit your xc/config/host.def file and add the +line: + +#define DefaultGcc2AxpOpt -O2 -mcpu=ev6 + +Additional speed improvements to 3D rendering can be achieved by installing +Compaq's Math Libraries (CPML) which can be obtained from http://www.sup- +port.compaq.com/alpha-tools/software/index.html + +Once installed, you can add this line to your host.def to build with the CPML +libraries: + +#define UseCompaqMathLibrary YES + +The host.def file is explained below. + +6. Downloading the XFree86/DRI CVS Sources + +The DRI project is hosted by SourceForge. The DRI source code, which is a +subset of the XFree86 source tree, is kept in a CVS repository there. + +The DRI CVS sources may be accessed either anonymously or as a registered +SourceForge user. It's recommended that you become a registered SourceForge +user so that you may submit non-anonymous bug reports and can participate in +the mailing lists. + +6.1 Anonymous CVS download: + + 1. Create a directory to store the CVS files: + + cd ~ + mkdir DRI-CVS + + You could put your CVS directory in a different place but we'll use + ~/DRI-CVS/ here. + + 2. Check out the CVS sources: + + cd ~/DRI-CVS + cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.dri.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/dri login + (hit ENTER when prompted for a password) + cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.dri.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/dri co xc + + The -z3 flag causes compression to be used in order to reduce the down- + load time. + +6.2 Registered CVS download: + + 1. Create a directory to store the CVS files: + + cd ~ + mkdir DRI-CVS + + You could put your CVS directory in a different place but we'll use + ~/DRI-CVS/ here. + + 2. Set the CVS_RSH environment variable: + + setenv CVS_RSH ssh // if using csh or tcsh + export CVS_RSH=ssh // if using sh or bash + + 3. Check out the CVS sources: + + cd ~/DRI-CVS + cvs -z3 -d:ext:YOURID@cvs.dri.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/dri co xc + + Replace YOURID with your CVS login name. You'll be prompted to enter + your sourceforge password. + + The -z3 flag causes compression to be used in order to reduce the down- + load time. + +6.3 Updating your CVS sources + +In the future you'll want to occasionally update your local copy of the DRI +source code to get the latest changes. This can be done with: + + cd ~/DRI-CVS + cvs -z3 update -dA xc + +The -d flag causes any new subdirectories to be created and -A causes most +recent trunk sources to be fetched, not branch sources. + +7. Mesa + +Most of the DRI 3D drivers are based on Mesa (the free implementation of the +OpenGL API). The relevant files from Mesa are already included in the +XFree86/DRI source tree. There is no need to download or install the Mesa +source files separately. + +Sometimes a newer version of Mesa will be available than the version included +in XFree86/DRI. Upgrading Mesa within XFree86/DRI is not always straightfor- +ward. It can be an error-prone undertaking, especially for beginners, and is +not generally recommended. The DRI developers will upgrade Mesa when appro- +priate. + +8. Compiling the XFree86/DRI tree + +8.1 Make a build tree + +Rather than placing object files and library files right in the source tree, +they're instead put into a parallel build tree. The build tree is made with +the lndir command: + + cd ~/DRI-CVS + ln -s xc XFree40 + mkdir build + cd build + lndir -silent -ignorelinks ../XFree40 + +The build tree will be populated with symbolic links which point back into +the CVS source tree. + +Advanced users may have several build trees for compiling and testing with +different options. + +8.2 Edit the host.def file + +The ~/DRI-CVS/build/xc/config/cf/host.def file is used to configure the +XFree86 build process. You can change it to customize your build options or +make adjustments for your particular system configuration + +The default host.def file will look something like this: + + #define DefaultCCOptions -Wall + (i386) #define DefaultGcc2i386Opt -O2 + (Alpha) #define DefaultGcc2AxpOpt -O2 -mcpu=ev6 (or similar) + #define LibraryCDebugFlags -O2 + #define BuildServersOnly YES + #define XF86CardDrivers vga tdfx mga ati i810 + #define LinuxDistribution LinuxRedHat + #define DefaultCCOptions -ansi GccWarningOptions -pipe + #define BuildXF86DRI YES + /* Optionally turn these on for debugging */ + /* #define GlxBuiltInTdfx YES */ + /* #define GlxBuiltInMga YES */ + /* #define GlxBuiltInR128 YES */ + /* #define GlxBuiltInRadeon YES */ + /* #define DoLoadableServer NO */ + #define SharedLibFont NO + +The ProjectRoot variable specifies where the XFree86 files will be installed. +We recommend installing the DRI files over your existing XFree86 installation +- it's generally safe to do and less error-prone. This policy is different +than what we used to recommend. + +If XFree86 4.x is not installed in /usr/X11R6/ you'll have to add the follow- +ing to the host.def file: + + #define ProjectRoot pathToYourXFree86installation + +Note the XF86CardDrivers line to be sure your card's driver is listed. + +If you want to enable 3DNow! optimizations in Mesa and the DRI drivers, you +should add the following: + + #define MesaUse3DNow YES + +You don't have to be using an AMD processor in order to enable this option. +The DRI will look for 3DNow! support and runtime and only enable it if appli- +cable. + +If you want to enable SSE optimizations in Mesa and the DRI drivers, you must +upgrade to a Linux 2.4.x kernel. Mesa will verify that SSE is supported by +both your processor and your operating system, but to build Mesa inside the +DRI you need to have the Linux 2.4.x kernel headers in /usr/src/linux. If +you enable SSE optimizations with an earlier version of the Linux kernel in +/usr/src/linux, Mesa will not compile. You have been warned. If you do have +a 2.4.x kernel, you should add the following: + + #define MesaUseSSE YES + +8.3 Compilation + +To compile the complete DRI tree: + + cd ~/DRI-CVS/build/xc/ + make World >& world.log + +Or if you want to watch the compilation progress: + + cd ~/DRI-CVS/build/xc/ + make World >& world.log & + tail -f world.log + +With the default compilation flags it's normal to get a lot of warnings dur- +ing compilation. + +Building will take some time so you may want to go check your email or visit +slashdot. + +WARNING: do not use the -j option with make. It's reported that it does not +work with XFree86/DRI. + +8.4 Check for compilation errors + +Using your text editor, examine world.log for errors by searching for the +pattern ***. + +Verify that the DRI kernel module(s) for your system were built: + + cd ~/DRI-CVS/build/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/drm/kernel + ls + +For the 3dfx Voodoo, you should see tdfx.o. For the Matrox G200/G400, you +should see mga.o. For the ATI Rage 128, you should see r128.o. For the ATI +Radeon, you should see radeon.o. For the Intel i810, you should see i810.o. + +If the DRI kernel module(s) failed to build you should verify that you're +using the right version of the Linux kernel. The most recent kernels are not +always supported. + +If your build machine is running a different version of the kernel than your +target machine (i.e. 2.2.x vs. 2.4.x), make will select the wrong kernel +headers. This can be fixed by explicitly setting the value of TREE. If the +path to your kernel source is /usr/src/linux-2.4.x, + + cd ~/DRI-CVS/build/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/drm/kernel + make TREE=/usr/src/linux-2.4.x/include + +or alternatively, edit Makefile to include this change. + +After fixing the errors, run make World again. Later, you might just compile +parts of the source tree but it's important that the whole tree will build +first. + +8.5 DRI kernel module installation + +The DRI kernel modules will be in ~/DRI-CVS/build/xc/pro- +grams/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/drm/kernel/. + +To load the appropriate DRM module in your running kernel you can either use +ismod and restart your X server or copy the kernel module to /lib/mod- +ules/2.4.x/kernel/drivers/char/drm/ then run depmod and restart your X +server. + +Make sure you first unload any older DRI kernel modules that might be already +loaded. + +Note that some DRM modules require that the agpgart module be loaded first. + +9. Normal Installation and Configuration + +Most users will want to install the new X server and use it in place of their +old X server. This section explains how to do that. + +Developers, on the other hand, may just want to test the X server without +actually installing it as their default server. If you want to do that, skip +to the next section. + +9.1 Installation + +Here are the installation commands: + + su + cd ~/DRI-CVS/build/xc + make install + +9.2 Update the XF86Config File + +You may need to edit your XF86Config file to enable the DRI. The config file +is usually installed as /etc/X11/XF86Config-4. See the DRI User Guide for +details, but basically, you need to load the "glx" and "dri" modules and add +a "DRI" section. + +On the DRI web site, in the resources section, you'll find example XF86Config +files for a number of graphics cards. These configuration files also setup +DRI options so it's highly recommended that you look at these examples. + +The XFree86 4.x server can generate a basic configuration file itself. Sim- +ply do this: + + cd /usr/X11R6/bin + ./XFree86 -configure + +A file named /root/XF86Config.new will be created. It should allow you to +try your X server but you'll almost certainly have to edit it. For example, +you should add HorizSync and VertRefresh options to the Monitor section and +Modes options to the Screen section. Also, the ModulePath option in the +Files section should be set to /usr/X11R6/lib/modules. + +9.3 Start the New X Server + +The new X server should be ready to use now. Start your X server in your +usual manner. Often times the startx command is used: + + startx + +10. Testing the Server Without Installing It + +As mentioned at the start of section 9, developers may want to simply run the +X server without installing it. This can save some time and allow you to +keep a number of X servers available for testing. + +10.1 Configuration + +As described in the preceding section, you'll need to create a configuration +file for the new server. Put the XF86Config file in your ~/DRI- +CVS/build/xc/programs/Xserver directory. + +Be sure the ModulePath option in your XF86Config file is set correctly. + +10.2 A Startup Script + +A simple shell script can be used to start the X server. Here's an example. + + #!/bin/sh + export DISPLAY=:0 + ./XFree86 -xf86config XF86Config & \ + sleep 2 + fvwm2 & + xset b off + xmodmap -e "clear mod4" + xsetroot -solid "#00306f" + xterm -geometry 80x40+0+0 + +You might name this script start-dri. Put it in your ~/DRI-CVS/build/xc/pro- +grams/Xserver directory. + +To test the server run the script: + + cd ~/DRI-CVS/build/xc/programs/Xserver + ./start-dri + +For debugging, you may also want to capture the log messages printed by the +server in a file. If you're using the C-shell: + + ./start-dri >& log + +11. Where To Go From Here + +At this point your X server should be up and running with hardware-acceler- +ated direct rendering. Please read the DRI User Guide for information about +trouble shooting and how to use the DRI-enabled X server for 3D applications. + + Generated from XFree86: xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/doc/sgml/DRIcomp.sgml,v 1.19 2002/11/26 01:05:50 dawes Exp $ + + +$XFree86: xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/doc/README.DRIcomp,v 3.16 2002/11/26 02:24:01 dawes Exp $ diff --git a/hw/xfree86/doc/devel/Registry b/hw/xfree86/doc/devel/Registry new file mode 100644 index 000000000..9c4111348 --- /dev/null +++ b/hw/xfree86/doc/devel/Registry @@ -0,0 +1,410 @@ +This is the XFree86 driver/module registry.

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 XF86Config 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 XF86Config file +<p> + + This is done at the start of the first server generation only. + + The XF86Config 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 + ``all or nothing''. It is enabled prior to calling driver probes, at + the start of subsequent server generations, and when VT switching + back to the Xserver. It is disabled at the end of server generations, + and when VT switching away from the Xserver. + + 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;. + + <quote> + &s.code;pciVideoPtr *xf86GetPciVideoInfo(void)&e.code; + <quote><p> + returns a pointer to a list of pointers to + &s.code;pciVideoRec&e.code; entries, of which there is one for + each detected PCI video card. The list is terminated with a + &s.code;NULL&e.code; pointer. If no PCI video cards were + detected, the return value is &s.code;NULL&e.code;. + + </quote> + </quote> + + After the bus probe, the resource broker is initialised. + + +<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> + </quote> + + <quote> + &s.code;void xf86PrintChipsets(const char *drvname, const char *drvmsg, + &f.indent;SymTabPtr chips)&e.code; + <quote> + This function provides an easy way for a driver's ChipIdentify + function to format the identification message. + </quote> + </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 XF86Config 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.

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;.

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 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.
