[ANNOUNCE] xf86-video-intel 2.21.14

Release 2.21.14 (2013-08-04) ============================ A few updates for the top-end Haswell systems (notably GT3 and GT3e systems), in particular, setting the appropriate thread counts for the larger GPU and handling a few scaling issues with the emedded DRAM. More important than the performance tuning though is a fix for a critical issue encountered by a few people on gen4/gen5 systems. * Initial performance tuning for HSW:GT3e * Fix a crash with Planetary Annihilation * Disable triple buffering for compositors * Reserve space in the exec buffer array for deferred VBOs. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67504 Complete list of changes since 2.21.13 -------------------------------------- Chris Wilson (43): intel: Source our PCI IDs table from the copy in the kernel intel: Cross-check an unnamed chipset against the list of known PCI-IDs intel: Remove the SDV from the list of identified chipsets intel: Set the correct marketing names for Ironlake, Sandybridge and Ivybridge intel: Replace the codename in the user facing string for unknown Haswell parts intel: Only print the unique chipset names uxa: Clear up the common intel directory uxa: Colocate architecture source files with backend implementation sources intel: Move some backend specific macros out of the common header intel: Remove some unused macros intel: Always define the PCI-IDs intel: Remove the unused bridge PCI-IDs sna/gen7: Set appropriate thread counts for Valleyview^Baytrail sna/gen7: Rename Valleyview to Baytrail sna/gen7: Use ivb/byt/hsw shorthand for generation checking sna/gen7: Prefer GPU spans for Baytrail as well configure: Print a summary of compilation options sna: Allow PutImage to utilise userptr for busy targets intel: Remove the unused SDV PCI IDs uxa: Add the missing include to silence the compiler warning sna: Fix limit on stipples to only use immediate operands for <= 32 dwords sna: Restore driver info upon FreeScreen uxa: Fix incorrect include path sna: Composite region is already in dst drawable space sna/dri: Prevent stale DRI buffers from a NULL dereference sna: Cleanup along all error paths in sna_pre_init() intel: Suppress some extremely noisy warnings sna: Suppress a few harmless warnings sna/dri: Tidy up applying damage to the Pixmap when copying regions Suppress a bunch of compiler warnings for using constant strings Suppress misleading warnings for -Wmaybe-uninitialized sna/gen4: Hide an unused function sna/gen7: Set appropriate constants for Haswell GT3 sna: Allow CPU access to scanouts if WT cached sna: Fix interaction between WT mapping of scanouts and allocating from stolen sna: Relax readback constraint for CPU mappings of scanouts sna/glyphs: Allow glyphs-to-dst to discard CA masks for a8 glyphs sna: Don't force inline string-ops for the general memcpy_blt routine sna: Add a few more details to the log for mode switching sna/dri: Disable TripleBuffering by default for compositors sna: Reserve relocation entries for the deferred VBO sna: Mark the entire userptr proxy chain as flush/non-reusable 2.21.14 release Damien Lespiau (1): uxa/display: Keep the EDID blob around for the lifetime of an output Egbert Eich (1): Add support for the dell backlight interface git tag: 2.21.14 http://xorg.freedesktop.org/archive/individual/driver/xf86-video-intel-2.21.14.tar.bz2 MD5: cec86adb1746aaa349280af546b335af xf86-video-intel-2.21.14.tar.bz2 SHA1: 238bd3cbf6e8f471280a163fc47efa8cc5501da4 xf86-video-intel-2.21.14.tar.bz2 SHA256: cc74d482dfd1f6b87773233a6d5c36118039b42fe7f8d99ee28bda7b78aa3b49 xf86-video-intel-2.21.14.tar.bz2 http://xorg.freedesktop.org/archive/individual/driver/xf86-video-intel-2.21.14.tar.gz MD5: 284baa4f151c2383d5096dcdabc55b54 xf86-video-intel-2.21.14.tar.gz SHA1: a2cd1313916aa7d40851174799311ca3b86e51ff xf86-video-intel-2.21.14.tar.gz SHA256: 502170600e8a18ebb97fadf88958e057d1a22f62185ee7f2b21774d5dd5da726 xf86-video-intel-2.21.14.tar.gz -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
