![]() ![]() Fixed by r270322 http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=270322 vt(4): Add new vd_bitblt_text_t callback, and implement it for vt_vga Compared to the deprecated vd_bitbltchr_t callback, vd_bitblt_text_t receives: o the whole text buffer o the dirty area o the mouse cursor (map, position, colors) This allows the backend to perform optimization on how to draw things. The goal is to remove vd_bitbltchr_t and vd_putchar_t, once all driver are converted (only vt_vga is included in this commit). In vt_vga, this allows to draw the text and the cursor in one pass, without ever reading from video memory (because it has all the context). The main benefit is the speed improvement: no more slideshow during boot! |
