This means we only have to do one fill_rect() per line and the whole process
ends up being ~10% faster than before.
Also added a read_tsc() syscall to give userspace access to the TSC.
To start painting, call:
gui$get_window_backing_store()
Then finish up with:
gui$release_window_backing_store()
Process will retain the underlying GraphicsBitmap behind the scenes.
This fixes racing between the WindowServer and GUI clients.
This patch also adds a WSWindowLocker that is exactly what it sounds like.
Make PageDirectory retainable and have each Region co-own the PageDirectory
they're mapped into. When unmapped, Region has no associated PageDirectory.
This allows Region to automatically unmap itself when destroyed.
Previously we'd blit every pixel in every window that intersected any dirty
rect to the back buffer. With this patch, we limit ourselves to blitting the
pixels inside the actual dirty rects.
There's still a lot of optimizations to make in this code.
There is some trouble here with the asynchronous nature of WindowServer
and the single per-window backing store we're drawing into. If we start
repainting a widget with a pending invalidation, that invalidation might
get flushed by the WindowServer mid-paint.
