[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1618122] Re: qemu-monitor screendump very slow

Date: Mon, 29 Aug 2016 18:55:16 -0000

** Description changed:

  qemu-monitor screendump often using 10-20% cpu usage of one core to take
  a small capture.
  
  Most of the CPU usage seems to come from libpixman. There were many
  reports of libpixman becoming 8 times slower in newer releases.

  Simple Valgrind Ir report.

- I tried taking a look on how to fix this, but it seems pixman is deeply
- enrooted inside the monitor.  I wanted to try to simply take whats on
- the display and memcpy it into .ppm format manually creating the file
- header, but I cant figure out where the raw display buffer/image is
- gotten from.

  For example this is DisplaySurface:
  
  struct DisplaySurface {
      pixman_format_code_t format;
      pixman_image_t *image;
      uint8_t flags;
  #ifdef CONFIG_OPENGL
      GLenum glformat;
      GLenum gltype;
      GLuint texture;
  #endif
  };
  
  Which as you can see already has the pixman_image_t. Maybe I should just
  work with that pixman_image_t?
  
  The most effective solution IMO seems to just memcpy from the display
  into a premade header for a .ppm or .bmp file assuming 24 or 32 bpp. No
  need for libpixman.
