Comments

Hello,

I would just like to politely draw attention to this again.  I would 
assume from the silence that the people who might review it don't think 
it is a completely wrong thing (that would not take long to say) but 
don't have the spare cycles to take a closer look.  Any idea when 
someone might have twenty minutes to review it?

Regards,

Michael

Can you give an example of when drmSetCursor2 would fail sometimes but
not always, enough to switch back and forth actively?

I'm not a huge fan of the patch because now errors could cause really
bizarre double-cursor, or no-cursor flickering, since there is no
guarantee that the swapover happens in the same frame.

We sort-of tried this in Weston for something else (we rendered
certain windows in overlays) and had to turn it off and go to always
SW because of the obnoxious flickering, at least until atomic landed.

Hello Jasper,

My case is virtual machine cursor pass-through.  VirtualBox has a 
setting which lets the user enable or disable guest-host cursor 
integration.  When it is enabled, the guest pointer position tracks the 
host one, and the guest cursor is rendered by the host.  When it is 
disabled, the guest and host pointer positions are independent, and in 
this case the guest renders its cursor itself in software.  The user can 
switch between the two at any time, though of course in practice 
switches do not occur in close succession.  But if integration was 
previously enabled, then the user disables it and the guest re-loads the 
previous cursor, it will be told that hardware rendering is not 
possible, which it was previously (and vice-versa).

Sorry that was so long - hope it was clear enough.

Regards,

Michael

Hi Michael,

Since the posting of this patch, the underlying code has
changed, e.g. the modesetting driver does use the
load_cursor_argb_check hook already now.

Can you check if this patch is still necessary,
and if so rebase it please ?

Thanks & Regards,

Hans
