Description:
there is no accelerated rendering on the secondary screen in dual head mode
when the secondary screen is rotated.

I am aware of virtual framebuffer limits of 2048x2048 on intel integrated
graphics, but that is not the problem here since it works if the second monitor
is not rotated. When both screens are non-rotated everything works fine with
both screens side by side(2960 pixels wide) as long as i don't start a
compositing window manager.

I have intel integrated graphics:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82Q35 Express Integrated
Graphics Controller (rev 02)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation 82Q35 Express Integrated Graphics
Controller (rev 02)

I have two monitors as reported by xrandr:
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 2704 x 1280, maximum 4096 x 4096

I can un-rotate the right/DVI screen and then there is no problem, but when it
is rotated rendering becomes laggy...
glxgears shows about 10 fps on the right screen while it is 60 on the left
screen(for a reasonably large glxgears window. For small glxgear windows the
framerate is limited to 60 on the straight monitor, but somehow vsync does not
work on the rotated monitor so there the fps goes to something like 300 for
small glxgear windows)
Also dragging windows and scrolling large scrollareas is slow and looks
jaggedy.
When the rotate screen is rotated back into normal orientation nothing is
wrong. Then vsync works on both screens and rendering is fast.

Additional info:
os: archlinux x86_64
package version: 2.20.19-1


I have no manual configuration in /etc/X11 whatsoever.
xorg log shows this after the xrandr command that rotates the second screen:
[ 21599.275] (II) intel(0): Allocated new frame buffer 2752x1280 stride 11008,
untiled
[ 21599.317] (II) intel(0): Allocated new frame buffer 1280x1024 stride 8192,
tiled

when I set it back to non-rotated it shown only one new line:
[ 26053.553] (II) intel(0): Allocated new frame buffer 3008x1050 stride 12032,
untiled


I found an ubuntu bugreport that says that this bug(presuming it's the same)
was solved upstream in 2.3.1 but apparently it is back
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/174650

Steps to reproduce:
* attach two monitors
* assign the above configuration:
> xrandr --output VGA1 --mode 1680x1050 --primary
> xrandr --output DVI1 --right-of VGA1 --rotate left
* run glxgears on both screens and observe the big difference(also looks better
on the non-rotated screen)

I'd be glad to provide more information but for the moment I think this sums it
up pretty much. If you want to see specific logs or command, please let me know
