About the Xserver for rockchip

[Randy Li]

Hello Tomasz:
  Heiko told me you are in charge of the graphics part of chromium, I 
think I had better told you the developing status of the xorg xserver in 
rockchip. Currently the graphics department released a modification
version of xserver which would support the libMali, but the way to 
support it is some kind of hacker which disabled the original mesa gl 
support.
https://github.com/rockchip-linux/xserver/commit/bae12718e76d50d7388a93a251ef6777f6ca4850#diff-92a9ba7d51895d2d69c5c893fa0f658dL792

   Since the code base of that is really a mess, I rebase the branch 
rockchip with the xserver branch 1.18 from upstream, it is there
https://github.com/rockchip-linux/xserver/tree/rockchip-1.18
But the version I made would omit some pixels when it is drawing, I have 
not found out why.

What I actually said was that Tomasz did the original VPU driver used on 
veyron chromebooks, so may be interested in your current work on that :-) .

Also ChromeOS moved from X11 to use Freon instead, so I'm not sure if ChromeOS 
cares about that anymore.

Didn't Mark do a lot of changes on your xserver, so maybe he knows what might 
be going wrong?

I don't what the problem it's, I haven't a chance to try Randy's issue yet.

Hi Randy

Did you re-test it with this patch: 
https://github.com/rockchip-linux/xserver/commit/bfee8067608b9dcbf6dae0ed897ae1295fdef7f2

Thanks.

Yes, I am rewriting the VPU driver. The last topic is
something different ideas from chromium's decoder settings API
in linux-media

And Mark is thinking about moving forward to wayland.

No, I have merged that patch in my branch, just forget to push it 
recently it.
Your branch works fine now, it may be caused some mistakes when I was 
rebasing. It is not serious problem for now.
