XAA does it like this:

XAAInit() wraps pScreen's CreatePixmap and DestroyPixmap, and
CloseScreen. XAA's CloseScreen unwraps all of these functions again. So
that's why this problem never showed up while using XAA and the old fb
manager.

I strongly assume that simply unwrapping the pScreen CreatePixmap and
DestroyPixmap pointers is not the real fix, but it would at least do for
now.

At a closer look, in my driver's ScreenInit, the order of wrapping
pScreen->CloseScreen is the following:

- - fbScreenInit(): fbCloseScreen() only frees private data, and returns
TRUE. This is obviously meant to be the last one in the chain - but see
immediately below.

- - fbPictureInit() calls miPictureInit which calls PictureInit(). The
last one wraps CloseScreen with PictureCloseScreen() which makes sure
it's the last one executed as it does not simply call the next
CloseScreen wrapper at its end, but right at start. So, the essence of
PictureCloseScreen() is done AFTER all other CloseScreen()'s are
finished.  All its subroutines (PictureResetFilters(), CloseIndexed())
do only free private data, so no harm there.

- - DGA: Its CloseScreen wrapper only frees private data.

- - EXA/XAA - see below

- - miInitializeBackingStore() - mibstore.c: Its miBSCloseScreen() only
frees private data.

- - miDCInitialize() - init sw cursor - midispcur.c: miDCCloseScreen() is
the bad guy, calling pScreen->DestroyPixmap for freeing cursor data.
(EXA is already destroyed by that time).

- - xf86InitCursor() - init hw cursor - ramdac/xf86Cursor.c:
xf86CursorCloseScreen() unwraps everything, frees private data and
eventually calls xf86SetCursor with a null-cursor.

- - shadowfb (eventually): ShadowCloseScreen() only unwraps and frees
private data.

- - DPMS: CloseScreen() unwraps, frees private data and calls
pScrn->DPMSSet() for (re-)enabling the display. That's an interesting
one since it is also called AFTER the driver's own CloseScreen(), but
granted, this fact is mentioned in the comment before the call. (My
driver circumvents this call by setting pScrn->vtSema to FALSE at the
end of its own CloseScreen()).

- - Xv: Its CloseScreen() wrapper unwraps, frees private data; it also
eventually calls FreeGC (dix/gc.c) which itself ALSO eventually calls
pScreen->DestroyPixmap. So basically, this one could be a trouble maker
as well.

- - And finally, the driver's CloseScreen(): This is called FIRST:
Restores display mode, unmaps memory, frees int10 data, frees some
private data, [deregisters the XAA hooks | calls EXA's DriverFini()],
destroys the cursor InfoRec, frees shadow framebuffer, frees xv
adaptors, and proceeds to next CloseScreen wrapper.


- From looking at this closely, I get the impression that EXA is somewhat
not conforming to the standard behavior, as it does not wrap
CloseScreen() itself, but relies on the driver to call DriverFini()
which is executed at a different time than a potential exaCloseScreen()
would. DriverFini() not only destroys the offscreen memory manager, but
all EXA related stuff in connection with the pScreen in question.

While XAA's XAADestroyInfoRec(), which is called from the driver's
CloseScreen(), only frees the pixmap cache, EXA's DriverFini() destroys
... EXA basically. Without unwrapping the pointers it wrapper in
DriverInit().

So, the proper solution (for now?) would be,

1) either wrap closeScreen() in exaDriverInit(), and unwrap everything
there, or

2) unwrap everything in DriverFini() (which is certainly easier to do
quickly).
