I just changed DRM to alternative between zero and POLLIN.... This will make the DRM poll() function work like the kernel expects it to and still work with existing X servers. Can someone please get this incorrect code out of the X server?
As I mentioned earlier, setting driverSwapMethod to DRI_KERNEL_SWAP seems to work for the savage driver. I bet it works for many others too.
I'd rather see the whole context-switching code in the shared code given a good shaking out & fixed properly. Ie. we should apply the same knife to the shared DRI code that has been cutting the dead flesh out of DRM.
AFAICT this tells the common DRI code not to use the DRM file handle. Once this is proven to work with all drivers we could axe the code for the other methods.
But it won't fix the code that's out there now, which is the backwards compatibility concern.
