[Bug 916196] [NEW] gdk_cairo_region_create_from_surface() broken on big endian

 

Public bug reported:

When using gdk_cairo_region_create_from_surface() on a big endian
system, the points in the resulting region get reversed in horizontal
groups of 8.  I've attached an example program that clearly shows the
problem, and I'll attach screenshots from running it on  amd64 (little
endian, works) and ppc (big endian, does not work).

The output from the program when running on ppc is

R 0: 0
R 1: 0
R 2: 0
R 3: 0
R 4: 0
R 5: 0
R 6: 0
R 7: 8
R 8: 8
R 9: 8

but the expected output is

R 0: 1
R 1: 2
R 2: 3
R 3: 4
R 4: 5
R 5: 6
R 6: 7
R 7: 8
R 8: 9
R 9: 10

Since the text output is wrong, my conclusion is that the bug is in
gdk_cairo_region_create_from_surface(), and not in
gtk_widget_shape_combine_region().
