don't hold drawlock duing vga enable and disable, but just zero
the function pointers under drawlock *before* disabling the vga
device.
holding the drawlock while calling out into enable and disable
is not a good idea. with vgavesa, this might deadlock when
userspace realemu tries to print in a rio window with vgavesa.
in 9front, screen blanking is always initiated from process context,
so there is no need for a kproc anymore.
care has been taken for the race between vesadisable() and vesablank()
by acquiering the drawlock prior calling scr->dev->enable() and
scr->dev->disable(). this also has the side effect of accelerated
fills and scrolls not being called during device disable.
Prior to switching display, switch to text mode 3, which
is supported by anything, then set display, search for the
desired mode, load it if found. If not found, set the display
to the old one and switch to the old mode back.
the boolcopy optimization doesnt doesnt use Buffer.alpha, tho
the debug function dumpbuf() still can dereference it. to keep
it simple, always have Buffer.alpha point to the channel or
&ones when not used.
previously ircrc dialed through /net itself and resolved ips on its own. this prevented the use of an ip address, and also prevented use of ipv6. now you can use an ip, or a dns name that resolves to ipv6. the -T flag is also added to use tlsclient for encrypted connections.
At least on some NVIDIA cards the default scaling mode makes
black borders visible on all sides, even on native resolution.
This patch adds a generic "scaling MODE" command to vgactl
and adds support for it on VESA through NVIDIA VBE OEM extension.
It hasn't been tested on any other video cards, but shouldn't
break anything as the scaling mode is only set on write to vgactl.
we have to call tmpmap() with interrupts disabled as the map
is a per cpu and a interrupt can preempt us while we where
commited to use a entry but *before* we wrote it!
tmpunmap() already calls coherence() before flushpg() so it
is not needed after tmpunmap().
splhi() in l2free() isnt needed as l2free() is always called
with interrupts disabled from mmuswitch() and mmurelease().
fpsave needs to disable the fpu! otherwise we won't catch
the mathtrap() in the kernel or when context switching to
another process that will attempt to use it.
