The original XGI kernel driver strobed 0xB03F each time a page was
allocated to back a GART page. When the driver was converted to use
the DRM SG interface, this code was lost. Returning it fixes a long
standing issue where the X-server would work fine the first time, but
acceleration commands would be ignored on the second X-server
invocation.
Since the heaps weren't marked as uninitialized, SG memory was never
re-allocated. This prevented the X-server from being able to restart
without re-loading the kernel module.
The DRM_XGI_PCIE_ALLOC and DRM_XGI_FB_ALLOC ioctls (and the matching
free ioctls) are unified to DRM_XGI_ALLOC. The desired memory region
is selected by xgi_mem_alloc::location. The region is magically
encoded in xgi_mem_alloc::index, which is used to release the memory.
Bump to version 0.11.0. This update requires a new DDX.
Pass the master's file pointer, as supplied to xgi_bootstrap, to
xgi_cmdlist_initialize. Associate that pointer with the memory
allocated for the command list buffer. By doing this the memory will
be automatically cleaned up when the master closes the device. This
allows the removal of some clean up code.
When the GE is shut down, an empty command packet without a begin-link
must be sent. After this command is sent, wait for the hardware to go
idle. Finally, turn off the GE and disable MMIO.
The core DRM lastclose routine automatically destroys all mappings and
releases SG memory. XP10 DRM and DDX assumed this data stayed around
until module unload. xgi_bootstrap was reworked to recreate all these
mappings. In addition, the drm_addmap for the GART backing store was
moved into the kernel. This causes a change to the ioctl protocol and
a version bump.
Based on review comments from airlied, XGI_CHECK_PCI_CONFIG is
removed. He believes (and I tend to agree) that this is a largely
unnecessary workaround for a bug elsewhere.
