This lets the DRI2 clients rely on the server to notify them when they need to get new buffers. Without this, OpenGL clients poll the server in glViewport() which can be a performance problems and also isn't completely correct behaviour. We bump the DRI2 protocol minor to indicate the availability of the event, which the DRI2 clients can use to avoid polling. This speeds up various piglit and oglc test cases as well as real applications.

X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.
