Hi,
I have prepared a patch to generate an AmigaOS4 shared library from the
pixman sources. My first question is whether you would, in principle,
include something like this in the main git? And if, how can I best
distribute the patch? The patch is quite large as it is about 300k is
size. Apart from a patch that I submitted previously and a small style
correction (which I will remove subsequently) it doesn't change anything
to existing files. It, however, adds some new files to a new amiga
directory, which hosts stubs and other related files necessary to build
a real AmigaOS shared library, and some makefile in a similar fashion as
the Win32 port does. A preliminary patch is accessible using the
http://www.sebastianbauer.info/ex/pixman-amiga.diff URI.
Another question is about fast path caches in pixman-utils.c. I didn't
study what the fast path cache (nor what a fast path) is all about but
as on AmigaOS TLS cannot be achieved that easily and all code and data
is shared for all clients, I would like to extend that code portion by a
compile-time optional data access arbitration method. Would you, in
principle accept this change as well, assuming a suitable implementation
is provided?
Thanks a lot!
Best
Sebastian
