Release 3.0.2 replaces releases 3.0.0 and 3.0.1, which had severe issues of reliability and performance.
This release contains the following major change:
- Disable use of a single multi-message ioctl to read EDIDs. This was introduced
in release 3.0.0 to handle displays whose EDID otherwise failed to read. Under
certain conditions, this had a severe performance impact if there was no
EDID to be read. It may also have triggered an otherwise unexplained amdgpu
driver crash that was reported.
Lesser but noteworthy changes:
- Fixes build failure with configure --disable-usb
- Command configure --disable-drm now terminates with an error message.
Building without DRM has not worked for some time.
The development branch is now 3.0.3-dev.
A fuller description of the the changes in this release can be found in tile CHANGELOG.md in the source tree.
