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.
this would happen is the window is made visible but the client didn't render yet into it. This happens often with SurfaceView.
Instead of filling the window with solid black, SF would simply ignore it which could lead to more disturbing artifacts.
in theory the window manager should not display a window before it has been drawn into, but it does happen occasionnaly.
This change makes SurfaceHolder.setType(GPU) obsolete (it's now ignored).
Added an API to android_native_window_t to allow extending the functionality without ever breaking binary compatibility. This is used to implement the new set_usage() API. This API needs to be called by software renderers because the default is to use usage flags suitable for h/w.
The current gralloc allocates buffer memory for render targets that will typically have NPOT dimensions. Assuming that the vendor driver supports converting the resulting NPOT android_native_buffer_t to a NPOT EGLImage, SurfaceFlinger calls glEGLImageTargetTexture2DOES(), and uses glGetError() to test whether the GL can support creating an EGL target texture with the specified NPOT EGLImage. If it is supported, the DIRECT_TEXTURE flag remains set, otherwise it is cleared.
Tangentially, if the driver advertises the GL_ARB_texture_non_power_of_two extension, the NPOT_EXTENSION flag is set, otherwise it is cleared.
If the driver supported creating an EGL target texture from a NPOT source EGLImage, it implicitly creates a NPOT texture. This does not need any glScalef() texture coordinate correction in LayerBase::drawWithOpenGL(). However, the same driver may not advertise the GL_ARB_texture_non_power_of_two extension nor generally support NPOT textures that were not derived from EGLImages. So SurfaceFlinger may flag only DIRECT_TEXTURE, not NPOT_EXTENSION.
Therefore, the test in LayerBase::drawWithOpenGL() should only perform the glScalef() if neither NPOT_EXTENSION or DIRECT_TEXTURE are flagged. Otherwise scaling is applied to NPOT EGL target textures when none is required.

doesn't happen because the visibility never changes. With this change
the overlay parameter and position will be committed when either the visibility
of the window changes, or on the first call to visibility resolved, if it
hasn't already been done.

fix [1947273] the DimLayer causes the whole screen to update during transactions
we can't use a texture of 1/4th of the screen for the dim layer, because the mdp internal input resultion is alwyas integers and for very small blits of a couple pixels the scale factor can get way out of range, for instance for a 7 pixels source, the scale factor would be either 7 (7/1) or 3.5 (7/2) instead of 4 (7/1.75). This caused the mdp to fail in some cases and revert to software. we now always use a texture of the actual screen size, so the problem will never happen. This burns 300KB of pmem instead of 21KB. On devices with a larger screen we might want to use a smaller texture and tile it by hand.

Allow the qemu.sf.lcd_density property to override the value of ro.sf.lcd_density
ro.sf.lcd_density is usually defined in the build.prop file which is parsed by init
before anything else. Since its name begins with "ro.", this property is write-once
and cannot later be modified, e.g. in /system/etc/init.goldfish.sh.
In other words, you cannot use "emulator -prop ro.sf.lcd_density=<value>", since
it is impossible to override the value defined in build.prop
This patch modifies the system to recognize "qemu.sf.lcd_density" as an override
value, which can be set with "emulator -prop qemu.sf.lcd_density=<value>", forcing
a specific density.
A later patch will allow the emulator to automatically set this property depending
on AVD hardware configuration settings.
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).

log the geomerty of surfaces causing an out of memory in SurfaceFlinger.
ANDROID_swap_rectangle allows to specify the rectangle affected by eglSwapBuffers(), anything outside of this rectangle is unchanged. in particular EGL_BUFFER_DESTROYED only applies to that rectangle. This extension as well as EGL_BUFFER_PRESERVED allow major optimizations on surfaceflinger, which can redraw only the dirty area during compositing.
However, ANDROID_swap_rectangle allows further optimizations in EGL by reducing the amount of copy-back needed. ANDROID_swap_rectangle is particularily important for software implementations.
- 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
First, the window manager tells us when a surface is no longer needed. At this point, several things happen:
- the surface is removed from the active/visible list
- it is added to a purgatory list, where it waits for all clients to release their reference
- it destroys all data/state that can be spared
Later, when all clients are done, the remains of the Surface are disposed off: it is removed from the purgatory and destroyed.
In particular its gralloc buffers are destroyed at that point (when we're sure nobody is using them anymore).
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).
