Bug Description:
---------------------
In UXA mode, glsync will fail both with or without gnome. But in EXA mode, it will pass just under X, if turned on gnome-session it will fail too.    

Reproduce Steps:
---------------------
1. xinit&
2. gnome-session&
3. xdemo/glsync -s s(n,b)

Li Peng posted a patch that might help with this by preventing pipe/plane swaps w/DRI2, but I think this is really a more general DRI2 problem...
Comment 3 liuhaien 2009-01-11 23:50:20 UTC
this issue also happens on 915gm.
Comment 4 liuhaien 2009-02-23 18:42:00 UTC
on g45 using uxa,glsyn only fails with "-s b". "-s s" works well
Comment 5 zhao jian 2009-03-18 22:37:16 UTC
Now on gm45-32, with EXA it will be OK both with and without gnome. 
And with UXA, it will fail. With the following configuration:
Kernel_version:         2.6.29-rc6

Comment 6 Gordon Jin 2009-03-21 19:43:15 UTC
so changing the title to be UXA only.
Comment 7 Jesse Barnes 2009-03-30 17:33:29 UTC
The -sb failure is a dup of 20664, marking as such (and updating the description of 20664).

I tested with the newest code in both KMS and UMS mode. In KMS mode, it still fails. In UMS, "glsync -s b" will crash the X with the following info: 
(gdb) bt
#0  I830DRI2CopyRegion (pDraw=0xba8c798, pRegion=0xb8cf608,
    pDstBuffer=0xba60390, pSrcBuffer=0xba603a8) at i830_dri.c:322
#1  0xb7ee5cf5 in DRI2CopyRegion (pDraw=0xba8c798, pRegion=0xb8cf608, dest=0,
    src=1) at dri2.c:186
#2  0xb7ee65d7 in ProcDRI2CopyRegion () at dri2ext.c:251
#3  ProcDRI2Dispatch (client=0xba53250) at dri2ext.c:296
#4  0x0808676f in Dispatch () at dispatch.c:437
#5  0x0806c69d in main (argc=2, argv=0xbfafe064, envp=Cannot access memory at address 0xa
) at main.c:397

The new code is built with:

    Sync DRI2 CopyRegion to vertical retrace
Comment 9 Jesse Barnes 2009-06-04 08:26:56 UTC
You need a couple of other commits that came after that one, to avoid the crash if we don't find an overlapping crtc.  Please reopen if master still has the problem.
Comment 10 zhao jian 2009-06-19 01:34:44 UTC
I built with all the components in master, and it works well with KMS and UMS. But if I enable compiz, it will refreshed slowly that I can see one frame after another. 
Comment 11 Jesse Barnes 2009-06-19 10:07:11 UTC
That's expected behavior.  glsync -sb will swap its contents (this shouldn't wait because its front buffer isn't on-screen), then compiz will grab the front buffer contents and swap that to the screen at some point (which will be synchronized).  So you won't get the nice orange effect; you'll get whatever compiz happened to pick up that frame.

OK. Thanks. I verified this bug.
