[Bug 30184] New: Take advantage of xrandr 1.3 features
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30184 Bug #: 30184 Summary: Take advantage of xrandr 1.3 features Product: Wine Version: 1.4-rc6 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: winex11.drv AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: adys.wh(a)gmail.com Classification: Unclassified See bug 30154 """ (In reply to comment #18)
Wine is a user level application, it's by definition a kernel/vidoe driver bug if doing a simple video modes query (just once at start up!) makes X block for several seconds.
I don't think anyone denied there was a driver/hardware bug involved as well. But that doesn't change the fact that the way XRandR is currently used in Wine causes completely unnecessary EDID polls. This doesn't happen just once on startup either. As the linked source shows, calling XRRGetScreenInfo() causes a poll. X11DRV_XRandR_GetCurrentMode() calls XRRGetScreenInfo(). This is what is used to implement the ENUM_CURRENT_SETTINGS part of the EnumDisplaySettings*() calls, and it's certainly not unheard of for applications to call those. You can certainly argue that this bug isn't a very high priority for Wine, and that it's more important to get the driver fixed so that polls aren't so expensive. You can't argue that Wine doesn't cause these polls.
Wine doesn't do anything of the listed below things as the reporter claims:
- wine is requesting the information again and again Calls to EnumDisplaySettings*() with ENUM_CURRENT_SETTINGS do this.
- and is forcing xrandr to do a reprobe instead of just getting the current information. Just about any XRandR 1.2 query will do this. The way to fix it is to use XRandR 1.3 RRGetScreenResourcesCurrent for querying, and e.g. RRScreenChangeNotify events to get notified of configuration changes. This is practically needed for proper multi-head support anyway, and listening for the appropriate events will also fix the issue where applications are unaware of mode changes by other applications.

I also changed it so that when *setting* a mode, the current mode information is polled to make sure we don't do that with outdated information. When just *getting* the current mode, the cached value is used.

Is something blocking this patch from getting into wine, or can we hope for a fix soon?
I think the big question is whether xrandr 1.3 supported well enough for this kind of change or should there be some kind of fallback mechanism to use the older protocol? I suspect (wild guessing really) most systems have a recent enough version of the xrandr library and Wine will be able to load the library fine. However, some drivers (NVIDIA BLOB) only recently started advertising support for >= 1.3 in their release notes. So I guess my question boils down to is if 1.3 xrandr libraries gracefully handle the case where they're matched up with older, less capable, drivers. We could just do it, call it an upstream problem, and be done with it but it would be nice to cover all the bases if we can. Please forgive my ignorance if this really is a non issue. I suspect at a minimum there should be a configure check for >= 1.3 headers. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Actually, as far as I am informed, previous proprietary NVidia drivers do not have any xrandr support at all. At least xrandr entirely ceased to work on my machine with an NVidia card.
