The main change introduced in this patch is the removal of the back-and-forth between DDX and the driver. The DDX now allocates the InputInfoRec and fills it with default values. The DDX processes common options (and module-specific default options, if appropriate) before passing the initialised struct to the driver. The driver may do module-specific initializations and return Success or an error code in the case of a failure.

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.
