Rewrote SurfaceFlinger's buffer management from the ground-up.
The design now support an arbitrary number of buffers per surface, however the current implementation is limited to four. Currently only 2 buffers are used in practice.
The main new feature is to be able to dequeue all buffers at once (very important when there are only two).
A client can dequeue all buffers until there are none available, it can lock all buffers except the last one that is used for composition. The client will block then, until a new buffer is enqueued.
The current implementation requires that buffers are locked in the same order they are dequeued and enqueued in the same order they are locked. Only one buffer can be locked at a time.
eg. Allowed sequence: DQ, DQ, LOCK, Q, LOCK, Q
eg. Forbidden sequence: DQ, DQ, LOCK, LOCK, Q, Q
(in this case the state is dumped without the proper locks held which could result to a crash)
in addition, the last transaction and swap times are printed to the dump as well as the time spent
*currently* in these function. For instance, if SF is unresponsive because eglSwapBuffers() is stuck,
this will show up here.
what happened is that the efective pixel format is calculated by SF but Surface nevew had access to it directly.
in particular this caused query(FORMAT) to return the requested format instead of the effective format.
now, all destruction path, go through the purgatory which is emptied when ~ISurface is called, but we also make sure to remove the surface from the current list from there (in case a client forgot to request the destruction explicitely).
- Currently the lock/unlock path is naive and is done for each drawing operation (glDrawElements and glDrawArrays). this should be improved eventually.
- factor all the lock/unlock code in SurfaceBuffer.
- fixed "showupdate" so it works even when we don't have preserving eglSwapBuffers().
- improved the situation with the dirty-region and fixed a problem that caused GL apps to not update.
- make use of LightRefBase() where needed, instead of duplicating its implementation
- add LightRefBase::getStrongCount()
- renamed EGLNativeWindowSurface.cpp to FramebufferNativeWindow.cpp
- disabled copybits test, since it clashes with the new gralloc api
- Camera/Video will be fixed later when we rework the overlay apis
Surfaces are now destroyed once all references from the clients are gone, but they go through a partial destruction as soon as the window manager requests it.
This last part is still buggy. see comments in SurfaceFlinger::destroySurface()
The WindowManager side of Surface.java holds a SurfaceControl, while the client-side holds a Surface. When the client is in the system process, Surface.java holds both (which is a problem we'll try to fix later).
