We continue in InitOutput() with the following part of code:
/*
* Match up the screens found by the probes against those specified
* in the config file. Remove the ones that won't be used. Sort
* them in the order specified.
*/
/*
* What is the best way to do this?
*
* For now, go through the screens allocated by the probes, and
* look for screen config entry which refers to the same device
* section as picked out by the probe.
*
*/

for (layout = xf86ConfigLayout.screens; layout->screen != NULL;

GDevPtr dev =
xf86GetDevFromEntity(xf86Screens[i]->entityList[j],
xf86Screens[i]->entityInstanceList[j]);

As we previously saw xf86NumScreens increased each time a new ScrnInfoRec was allocated in xf86Screens[]. Also xf86ConfigLayout describes the active layout of xorg.conf (see section 3.2.2.2). The code scans the devices of all screens of the xf86ConfigLayout (until the NULL terminating in the list is found) and compares each with the ones resulted from the probe and stored now at the xf86Screens[] fields. If a match is found the xf86Screens[i] confScreen field is filled with the specific confScreenRec value. confScreen is of type confScreenPtr which we find in section 3.2.2.2, defined as:
typedef struct _confscreenrec {
char * id;
int screennum;
int defaultdepth;
int defaultbpp;
int defaultfbbpp;
MonPtr monitor;
GDevPtr device;
int numdisplays;
DispPtr displays;
int numxvadaptors;
confXvAdaptorPtr xvadaptors;
pointer options;
} confScreenRec, *confScreenPtr;
|
The two confScreenPtr that are resulted from the this case study xorg.conf fill each confScreen field of the two ScrnInfoRec formed in the example of section 3.2.2.6.
xf86GetDevFromEntity() is implemented as:
GDevPtr
xf86GetDevFromEntity(int entityIndex, int instance)
{
int i;
/* We might not use AddDevtoEntity */
if ( (!xf86Entities[entityIndex]->devices) ||
(!xf86Entities[entityIndex]->devices[0]) )
return NULL;
if (entityIndex >= xf86NumEntities ||
instance >= xf86Entities[entityIndex]->numInstances)
return NULL;
for (i = 0; i < xf86Entities[entityIndex]->numInstances; i++)
if (xf86Entities[entityIndex]->devices[i]->screen == instance)
break;
return xf86Entities[entityIndex]->devices[i];
}

The global array xf86Screens[], the array of all ScrnInfoRec is sorted according to the screen number of the xorg.conf file.
NOTES:
Blue colored text indicates that a value is assigned to a ScrnInfoRec field.
