Von: Thomas Zimmermann Betreff: [SDL] [PATCH] Make static variables const Datum: Tue, 19 May 2009 19:45:37 +0200 Hi, this is a set of simple changes which make some of SDL's internal static arrays constant. The purpose is to shrink the number of write-able static bytes and thus increase the number of memory pages shared between SDL applications. The patch set is against trunk@4513. Each of the attached patch files is specific to a sub-system. The set is completed by a second mail, because of the list's 40 KiB limit. The files readelf-r4513.txt and readelf-const-patch.txt where made by calling 'readelf -S libSDL.so'. They show the difference in ELF sections without and with the patch. Some numbers measured on my x86-64: Before [13] .rodata PROGBITS 00000000000eaaa0 000eaaa0 0000000000008170 0000000000000000 A 0 0 32 [19] .data.rel.ro PROGBITS 00000000003045e0 001045e0 00000000000023d0 0000000000000000 WA 0 0 32 [23] .data PROGBITS 00000000003076e0 001076e0 0000000000004988 0000000000000000 WA 0 0 32 After [13] .rodata PROGBITS 00000000000eaaa0 000eaaa0 0000000000009a50 0000000000000000 A 0 0 32 [19] .data.rel.ro PROGBITS 0000000000306040 00106040 0000000000002608 0000000000000000 WA 0 0 32 [23] .data PROGBITS 0000000000309360 00109360 0000000000002e88 0000000000000000 WA 0 0 32 The size of the write-able data section decreased considerably. Some entries became const-after-relocation, while most of its content went straight into the read-only data section. Best regards, Thomas

SDL on DirectFB

Supports:

- Hardware YUV overlays
- OpenGL - software only
- 2D/3D accelerations (depends on directfb driver)
- multiple displays
- windows

What you need:

DirectFB 1.0.1, 1.2.x, 1.3.0
Kernel-Framebuffer support: required: vesafb, radeonfb .... 
Mesa 7.0.x	   - optional for OpenGL

/etc/directfbrc

This file should contain the following lines to make
your joystick work and avoid crashes:
------------------------
disable-module=joystick
disable-module=cle266
disable-module=cyber5k
no-linux-input-grab
------------------------

To disable to use x11 backend when DISPLAY variable is found use

export SDL_DIRECTFB_X11_CHECK=0

To disable the use of linux input devices, i.e. multimice/multikeyboard support,
use

export SDL_DIRECTFB_LINUX_INPUT=0

To use hardware accelerated YUV-overlays for YUV-textures, use:

export SDL_DIRECTFB_YUV_DIRECT=1

This is disabled by default. It will only support one 
YUV texture, namely the first. Every other YUV texture will be
rendered in software.

In addition, you may use (directfb-1.2.x)

export SDL_DIRECTFB_YUV_UNDERLAY=1

to make the YUV texture an underlay. This will make the cursor to
be shown.

Simple Window Manager
=====================

The driver has support for a very, very basic window manager you may
want to use when runnning with "wm=default". Use

export SDL_DIRECTFB_WM=1

to enable basic window borders. In order to have the window title rendered,
you need to have the following font installed:

/usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/FreeSans.ttf

OPENGL Support
==============

As of this writing 20070810 you need to pull Mesa from git and do the following:

------------------------
cd mesa 
make linux-directfb
make

echo Installing - please enter sudo pw.

sudo make install INSTALL_DIR=/usr/local/dfb_GL
cd src/mesa/drivers/directfb
make
sudo make install INSTALL_DIR=/usr/local/dfb_GL
------------------------

To run the SDL - testprograms:

export SDL_VIDEODRIVER=directfb
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/dfb_GL/lib
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/dfb_GL/libGL.so.7

./testgl
