* Generation 6 (SandyBridge) and later support
automatic downclocking of the GPU offering
substantial battery use reductions.
* As we're playing with fire here, only use on
mobile devices SandyBridge or later.
* This is testing stable on my SandyBridge laptop,
however I need further confirmation of the
functionality of this.
* Move clock gating into a function in the power.cpp
file
* Reworked code style completely.
* Improved the behaviour of the particles.
* Made particles smaller (2,5x performance gain).
* Cleaned unnecessary includes.
* Tried improving performance with glCallList - performance dropped even more.
* Tried improving performance with glDrawArrays - no noticeable performance changes.
Wherever I found an alert prompting to save changes, I used the
button labeling 'Cancel', 'Don't save', 'Save' with the first button
left aligned, 2nd and 3rd right aligned.
I added the shortcuts 'd' for 'Don't save, and 's' for 'Save' where
not already set.
The topic was discussed at
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.os.haiku.devel/23244
The discussion died down, I hope I made changes everyone can live with.
* Prevent driver from picking up IvyBridge
for the moment. (VESA works for the moment)
* We get a white screen of doom. Looks as though
supporting IvyBridge will require more than
just basic fixups.
* This was needed to find a bug while
working on IvyBridge support.
* Code looks a bit cleaner as well now.
* If something goes wrong, user is now
better notified via syslog
* Added the aforementioned functions.
* create_area_etc() now takes a guard size parameter.
* The thread_info::stack_base/end range now refers to the usable range
only.
* sys/select.h was not self contained before, this fixes#9327
* index is defined as a function in string.h, fixed resulting name
collision in glut_shapes.c
* A modified version of TriEdgeAI's original work.
* Cleaned up style problems
* Some virtual functions didn't mesh properly with
ones defined in the OpenGL kit (Draw for example)
* Wrote Jamfile
* Add missing include cstdlib for rand
* Not in image yet as it still needs gcc2 testing
- When creating a stack frame, we now look at the current function's
state to determine if the last executed statement was a function call.
Still need to determine the call destination in order to look up
the latter function, retrieve its return type, and then request
retrieval of the actual return value if applicable.
- CreateStackTrace() now takes a parameter indicating whether or not
to try and retrieve full frame information. This in turn is passed
on to SpecificImageDebugInfo, where e.g. DwarfImageDebugInfo can
use it to avoid constructing variables and parameters. This is
used by ThreadHandler since, when it requests the top frame for
its stepping calculations, this additional data/work is completely
unnecessary.
- If a template type parameter resolves to a void type, gcc doesn't
actually generate a type attribute for the instantiation, leading
to a crash in CreateType(). Was observable with MemoryDeleter and
others.
A few attribute names that used to be "Audio:..." were changed a
while ago to the more general "Media:...". Applied those changes.
Fixes#9316, thanks ttcoder!
