Intel X.Org Driver package, an open source 2D graphics driver for the X Window System as implemented by X.org, has reached version 2.21.8.
Chris Wilson has released yet another version of xf86-video-intel drivers, which features some interesting changes.
Highlights of Intel X.Org Driver 2.21.8:
• A PolyFillRect operation is only marked if it is unclipped; • A potential NULL dereference of damage is now prevented when checking for COW support; • The invalidation of a clone, after dirtying the pixmap via the CPU, has been fixed; • Discarding an operation before requiring it for a fallback is now prevented; • A memory leak, which occurred when replacing the clone under certain circumstances, has been fixed.
A complete list of changes and improvements can be found in the official announcement.
