For reasons I've kidna stopped reviewing these patches. I don't really
agree with the details of the lease uapi as implemented. But that's
nothing that can't be fixed with a few flags, and leases always need an
explicit opt-in from the compositor now, so still possible to do
reasonable architecture on top in the future. Worst case we fake just the
parts that X needs from this version of leases, we've done that kind of
stuff in the past.
This here otoh is an uapi change that we can't ever undo or contain,
because as soon as we allow anyone to read kms state they will do so. And
do so in lots of very interesting and abusive ways. E.g. there's already
apps who try to second-guess the vblank timings with the vblank ioctl
(which accidentally works everywhere, not just on the master), and ofc get
it wrong, except for the case the developer tested on. Or without
uevent/udev events you can't do efficient output probing, which means
we'll see endless amounts of polling (we had to stop giving accurate data
in the sysfs interface already, for exactly this reasons, because someone
thought polling outputs once per second was a smart idea).
So given the huge possibilities of abuse, do we really, really need all
this, and is there not any way to create a bit of protocol to pass the
relevant data from X to clients? From your presentation is sounded like
current xrandr is (almost) there ...
Thanks, Daniel
