MFC vt(4) improvements / sync with HEAD
These are largely dumbbell@'s changes. Most significantly they address the extreme performance degradation with VGA hardware. SVN revisions in this MFC: 269471 270290 270293 270322 270324 270329 270331 270336 270338 270340 270341 270342 270343 270388 270390 270404 270411 270412 270413 270431 270446 270448 270485 270587 270589 270613 270618 270620 270667 270702 270707 270708 270720 270721 270785 270786 Detailed commit list: r270290: Test if the cursor is shown only once Later, we just see if the "struct mouse_cursor" pointer is set. This avoids the need to mess with all the conditions several times; this has been error prone. While here, rename the variable "m" to a more meaningful "cursor", like it's done elsewhere in the code. r270293: Rename the "mouse_cursor" structure to "vt_mouse_cursor" At the same time, "w" and "h" members are now called "width" and "height". The goal is to have a more "public" structure, because it will soon be passed as argument to a new callback, replacing vd_bitbltchr_t. r269471 (ray): Fix vt_vga driver to draw not-8-bit-aligned fonts correctly. Still one bug here: mouse left some gaps on track when moving left. r270322: Add new vd_bitblt_text_t callback, and implement it for vt_vga Compared to the deprecated vd_bitbltchr_t callback, vd_bitblt_text_t receives: o the whole text buffer o the dirty area o the mouse cursor (map, position, colors) This allows the backend to perform optimization on how to draw things. The goal is to remove vd_bitbltchr_t and vd_putchar_t, once all driver are converted (only vt_vga is included in this commit). In vt_vga, this allows to draw the text and the cursor in one pass, without ever reading from video memory (because it has all the context). The main benefit is the speed improvement: no more slideshow during boot! Other bugs fixed in vt_vga are: o left-most characters are drawn properly (the left-most pixels were missing with bold characters and some wide letters such as 'm') o no more black square around the cursor o no cursor flickering when the text is scrolling There are still many problems to fix: the known issues are marked with "FIXME" inside the code. r270411: vt_fb: Implement vd_bitblt_text_t for vt_fb and derivatives r270412: creator_fb: Implement vd_bitblt_text_t r270413: ofwfb: Implement vd_bitblt_text_t r270324: vt_vga: Clip the draw area to never draw offscreen This fixes a bug when two windows use different fonts, but a longer- term solution is required. The dirty area should be stored as pixels, not character cells, because such coordinates don't have the same meaning in all windows, when using different fonts. r270329: Mark new mouse position as dirty only when it's actually displayed r270331: Store cursor bitmap & colors in struct vt_device This removes the need to specify them to each call to vd_bitblt_text_t and, therefore, simplifies the API. r270336: Give the window to vd_bitblt_text_t callback ... instead of both the buffer and the font. Again, this simplifies the API. r270338: The offset to center the text area is per-window now The previous global offset, based on the last loaded font, had no meaning for other windows. This caused a shifted text area, often partly out-of-screen. r270341: vt_vga: Remove a "FIXME" comment; the issue was solved in r270338 r270340: Don't run vt_set_border() and vt_flush() concurrently In the case of vt_vga, the two concurrent calls were writing to the same VGA registers, causing incorrect refresh of the screen. r270342: Use the actual size of the mouse when marking its position as dirty This fixes a bug where part of the cursor was not erased. r270343: Remove "FIXME" about multiple locking of vt_buf in vt_flush() After some testing, it appears that acquiring the lock once and keeping it longer is slower than taking it multiple times. While here, fix a typo in another comment. r270388: vt_vga: Give only the character part of term_char_t to vga_get_cp437() This fixes a bug where vga_get_cp437() was called with an invalid argument. The screen was then filled with '?' instead of the actual character. r270390: Fix a crash in vt_mark_mouse_position_as_dirty() when in textmode In textmode, no font is loaded, thus the page fault in vt_mark_mouse_position_as_dirty() when it wants the font width/height. For now, create a fake area for the textmode. This needs to be modified if vt_vga gains mouse support in textmode. While here, fix a build failure when SC_NO_CUTPASTE is defined: vt_mark_mouse_position_as_dirty() must not be included in this case. r270404: Fix cursor handling in vt_flush() There were situations where the cursor was not erased/redrawn or its position was marked as dirty even though it's not displayed. The code is now more straightforward. At the same, add a function to determine if the cursor covers a given area. This is used by backends to know if they need to draw the cursor. This new function should be paired with a new state in struct vt_device, called vd_mshown, which indicates if the cursor should be displayed. This again simplifies vd_bitblt_text_t callback's API. r270431: vt(4): Add vd_bitblt_bmp_t callback The code was already there in all backends, we just expose it. This is used to display the splash screen. r270446: Remove vd_bitbltchr_t It's replaced by vd_bitblt_text_t, which gives more context to the backend and allows it to perform more efficiently when redrawing a given area. r270448: Fix order of arguments (x <-> y) when showing the splash screen r270485: vt_vga: Fix the display of the splash screen r270587: Take font offset into account in vt_is_cursor_in_area() This fixes a "General protection fault" in vt_vga, where vt_is_cursor_in_area() erroneously reported that the cursor was over the text. This led to negative integers stored in "unsigned int" and chaos. r270589: The cursor coordinates are relative to the drawn area ... not the whole screen. Don't use font offsets in vt_mark_mouse_position_as_dirty(). This fixes a bug where the mouse position wasn't marked as dirty when approaching the borders of the drawn area. r270613: Store a rectangle for the drawable area, not just the top-left corner This allows backends to verify they do not draw outside of this area. This fixes a bug in vt_vga where the text was happily drawn over the right and bottom margins, when using the Gallant font. r270618: Intialize drawable area rectangle each time a font is loaded This also fixes a problem where early in boot, the area was zero, leading to nothing displayed for a few seconds. r270620: vt_vga: Use Write Mode 0 to draw group of 8 pixels using 3 or more colors This replaces the method based on Write Mode 3, which required reads from the video memory to load the latches. r270667: When creating a window buffer, fill it entirely ... not just the visible part. This fixes a bug where, when switching from eg. vt_vga to vt_fb (ie. the resolution goes up), the originally hidden, uninitialized area of the buffer is displayed on the screen. This leads to a missing text cursor when it's over an unitialized area. This was also visible when selecting text: the uninitialized area was not highlighted. Internally, this area was zeroed: characters were all 0x00000000, meaning the foreground and background color was black. Now, everything is filled with a space with a gray foreground color, like the visible area. While here, remove the check for the mute flag and always use TERMINAL_NORM_ATTR as the character attribute (ie. gray foreground, black background). r270702: Implement basic support for KDSETMODE ioctl With the current implementation, this allows an X11 server to tell the console it switches a particular window in "graphics mode". This information is used by the mouse handling code to ignore sysmouse events in the window taken by the X server: only him should receive those events. r270707: Pause the vt_flush() timer when the screen is up-to-date The timer is restarted whenever a window buffer is marked as dirty or the mouse cursor moves. There's still room for improvement. For instance, we should not mark a window buffer as dirty when this window isn't displayed. r270708: vt(4): Recompute the drawable area when the resolution changes This was only done when the font changed. r270720: vt(4): Fix mouse cursor handling in vt_fb/creator_vt/ofwfb There were two issues: 1. The area given to vt_is_cursor_in_area() was adding the drawable area offset, something already handled by this function. 2. The cursor was shifted on the screen by the offset of this area and thus was misplaced or not erased. Furthermore, when reaching the bottom or right borders, the cursor was either totally removed or not erased correctly. r270721: vt(4): If the terminal shrinks, make sure the mouse is inside the new area r270785: vt(4): Change vb_history_size from "int" to "unsigned int" CID: 1230002, 1230003 r270786: Indicate that KDSETRAD case falls through the next case CID: 1229953 Relnotes: Yes
