video: Add helpers for decoding screen_info

The plain values as stored in struct screen_info need to be decoded
before being used. Add helpers that decode the type of video output
and the framebuffer I/O aperture.

Old or non-x86 systems may not set the type of video directly, but
only indicate the presence by storing 0x01 in orig_video_isVGA. The
decoding logic in screen_info_video_type() takes this into account.
It then follows similar code in vgacon's vgacon_startup() to detect
the video type from the given values.

A call to screen_info_resources() returns all known resources of the
given screen_info. The resources' values have been taken from existing
code in vgacon and vga16fb. These drivers can later be converted to
use the new interfaces.

v2:
* return ssize_t from screen_info_resources()
* don't call __screen_info_has_lfb() unnecessarily

video: logo: LOGO should depend on FB_CORE i.s.o. FB

If CONFIG_FB_CORE=y and CONFIG_FB=n, the frame buffer bootup logos can
no longer be enabled. Fix this by making CONFIG_LOGO depend on
CONFIG_FB_CORE instead of CONFIG_FB, as there is no good reason for the

video: Add auxiliary display drivers to Graphics support menu

The drivers in this subsystem are for either character-based or monochrome
LCD controllers. Which can fall into the same category of the DRM/KMS and
fbdev drivers, that are located under the "Graphics support" menu.

fbdev: Handle video= parameter in video/cmdline.c

Handle the command-line parameter video= in video/cmdline.c. Implement
the fbdev helper fb_get_options() on top. Will allows to handle the
kernel parameter in DRM without fbdev dependencies.

Note that __video_get_options() has the meaning of its return value
inverted compared to fb_get_options(). The new helper returns true if
the adapter has been enabled, and false otherwise.

There is the ofonly parameter, which disables output for non-OF-based
framebuffers. It is only for offb and looks like a workaround. The actual
purpose it not clear to me. Use 'video=off' or 'nomodeset' instead.

drm: Move nomodeset kernel parameter to drivers/video

Move the nomodeset kernel parameter to drivers/video to make it
available to non-DRM drivers. Adapt the interface, but keep the DRM
interface drm_firmware_drivers_only() to avoid churn within DRM. The
function should later be inlined into callers.

The parameter disables any DRM graphics driver that would replace a
driver for firmware-provided scanout buffers. It is an option to easily
fallback to basic graphics output if the hardware's native driver is
broken. Moving it to a more prominent location wil make it available
to fbdev as well.

v2:
* clarify the meaning of the nomodeset parameter (Javier)

drm: Implement DRM aperture helpers under video/

Implement DRM's aperture helpers under video/ for sharing with other
sub-systems. Remove DRM-isms from the interface. The helpers track
the ownership of framebuffer apertures and provide hand-over from
firmware, such as EFI and VESA, to native graphics drivers.

Other subsystems, such as fbdev and vfio, also have to maintain ownership
of framebuffer apertures. Moving DRM's aperture helpers to a more public
location allows all subsystems to interact with each other and share a
common implementation.

The aperture helpers are selected by the various firmware drivers within
DRM and fbdev, and the VGA text-console driver.

The original DRM interface is kept in place for use by DRM drivers.

v3:
* prefix all interfaces with aperture_ (Javier)
* rework and simplify documentation (Javier)
* rename struct dev_aperture to struct aperture_range
* rebase onto latest DRM

video: Kconfig: move drm and fb into separate menus

At the moment the "Device Drivers / Graphics support" kernel config page
looks rather messy, with DRM and fbdev driver selections on the same
page, some on the top level Graphics support page, some under their
respective subsystems.

If I'm not mistaken, this is caused by the drivers depending on other
things than DRM or FB, which causes Kconfig to arrange the options in
not-so-neat manner.

Both DRM and FB have a main menuconfig option for the whole DRM or FB
subsystem. Optimally, this would be enough to arrange all DRM and FB
options under the respective subsystem, but for whatever reason this
doesn't work reliably.

This patch adds an explicit submenu for DRM and FB, making it much
clearer which options are related to FB, and which to DRM.

If we create proper platform-devices in x86 boot-code, we can use simplefb
for VBE or EFI framebuffers, too. However, there is normally no OF support
so we introduce a platform_data object so x86 boot-code can pass the
parameters via plain old platform-data.

This also removes the OF dependency as it is not needed. The headers
provide proper dummies for the case OF is disabled.

Furthermore, we move the FORMAT-definitions to the common platform header
so initialization code can use it to transform "struct screen_info" to
the right format-name.

drivers/video: implement a simple framebuffer driver

A simple frame-buffer describes a raw memory region that may be rendered
to, with the assumption that the display hardware has already been set
up to scan out from that buffer.

This is useful in cases where a bootloader exists and has set up the
display hardware, but a Linux driver doesn't yet exist for the display
hardware.

Examples use-cases include:

* The built-in LCD panels on the Samsung ARM chromebook, and Tegra
devices, and likely many other ARM or embedded systems. These cannot
yet be supported using a full graphics driver, since the panel control
should be provided by the CDF (Common Display Framework), which has been
stuck in design/review for quite some time. One could support these
panels using custom SoC-specific code, but there is a desire to use
common infra-structure rather than having each SoC vendor invent their
own code, hence the desire to wait for CDF.

* Hardware for which a full graphics driver is not yet available, and
the path to obtain one upstream isn't yet clear. For example, the
Raspberry Pi.

* Any hardware in early stages of upstreaming, before a full graphics
driver has been tackled. This driver can provide a graphical boot
console (even full X support) much earlier in the upstreaming process,
thus making new SoC or board support more generally useful earlier.

video: mxsfb: Adapt to new videomode API

commit 6cd2c7db4 (videomode: videomode_from_timing work) changed the name of
the function from videomode_from_timing() to videomode_from_timings().

commit 32ed6ef1 (videomode: create enum for videomode's display flags) changed
the 'data_flags' field in videomode structure to 'flags'

Adapt to these changes in order to fix the following errors:

drivers/video/mxsfb.c:761:3: error: too many arguments to function 'videomode_from_timing'
drivers/video/mxsfb.c:761:7: error: void value not ignored as it ought to be

drivers/video/mxsfb.c:770:9: error: 'struct videomode' has no member named 'data_flags'

Also, select VIDEOMODE_HELPER instead of OF_VIDEOMODE, as this one is
deprecated.

video: fb: vt8500: Convert framebuffer drivers to standardized binding

Now that a display timing binding is available, convert our almost identical
binding to use the standard binding.

This patch converts the vt8500 and wm8505 framebuffer drivers and
associated dts/dtsi files to use the standard binding as defined in
bindings/video/display-timing.txt.

There are two side-effects of making this conversion:

1) The fb node should now be in the board file, rather than the soc file as
the display-timing node is a child of the fb node.

2) We still require a bits per pixel property to initialize the framebuffer
for the different lcd panels. Rather than including this as part of the
display timing, it is moved into the framebuffer node.

I have also taken the opportunity to alphabetise the includes of each
driver to avoid double-ups.

videomode: simplify videomode Kconfig and Makefile

This patch simplifies videomode related Kconfig and Makefile. After this
patch, there's only one non-user selectable Kconfig option left,
VIDEOMODE_HELPERS. The reasons for the change:

* Videomode helper functions are not something that should be shown in
the kernel configuration options. The related code should just be
included if it's needed, i.e. selected by drivers using videomode.

* There's no need to have separate Kconfig options for videomode and
display_timing. First of all, the amount of code for both is quite
small. Second, videomode depends on display_timing, and display_timing
in itself is not really useful, so both would be included in any case.

* CONFIG_VIDEOMODE is a bit vague name, and CONFIG_VIDEOMODE_HELPERS
describes better what's included.

video: mmp display subsystem

Add mmp display subsystem to support Marvell MMP display controllers.

This subsystem contains 4 parts:
--fb folder
--core.c
--hw folder
--panel folder

1. fb folder contains implementation of fb. fb get path and overlay
from common interface and operates on these structures.

2. core.c provides common interface for a hardware abstraction. Major
parts of this interface are:

a) Path: path is a output device connected to a panel or HDMI TV. Main
operations of the path is set/get timing/output color. fb operates
output device through path structure.

b) Ovly: Ovly is a buffer shown on the path.

Ovly describes frame buffer and its source/destination size, offset,
input color, buffer address, z-order, and so on. Each fb device maps
to one overlay.

3. hw folder contains implementation of hardware operations defined by
core.c. It registers paths for fb use.

4. panel folder contains implementation of panels. It's connected to
path. Panel drivers would also regiester panels and linked to path
when probe.

For cases where the graphics driver knows there can be only one

function of_get_videomode is added, that gets a struct videomode from DT.

# 8714c0ce 17-Dec-2012 Steffen Trumtrar <s.trumtrar@pengutronix.de>

video: add display_timing and videomode

Add display_timing structure and the according helper functions. This allows
the description of a display via its supported timing parameters.

Also, add helper functions to convert from display timings to a generic videomode
structure.

The struct display_timing specifies all needed parameters to describe the signal
properties of a display in one mode. This includes
- ranges for signals that may have min-, max- and typical values
- single integers for signals that can be on, off or are ignored
- booleans for signals that are either on or off

As a display may support multiple modes like this, a struct display_timings is
added, that holds all given struct display_timing pointers and declares the
native mode of the display.

Although a display may state that a signal can be in a range, it is driven with
fixed values that indicate a videomode. Therefore graphic drivers don't need all
the information of struct display_timing, but would generate a videomode from
the given set of supported signal timings and work with that.

The video subsystems all define their own structs that describe a mode and work
with that (e.g. fb_videomode or drm_display_mode). To slowly replace all those
various structures and allow code reuse across those subsystems, add struct
videomode as a generic description.

This patch only includes the most basic fields in struct videomode. All missing
fields that are needed to have a really generic video mode description can be
added at a later stage.

and S3C2450 SoCs so that we can merge the mach-xxx directories
and plat-s3c24xx dir. to just one mach-s3c24xx for them.

I think this should be sent to upstream via samsung tree because
this touches many samsung stuff.

Resurrect Intel740 driver: i740fb

This is a resurrection of an old (like 2.4.19) out-of-tree driver for
Intel740 graphics cards and adaptation for recent kernels. The old driver by
Andrey Ulanov is located at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/i740fbdev/files/

This is a new driver based on skeletonfb, using most of the low level HW code
from the old driver. The DDC code is completely new.

The driver was tested on two 8MB cards: Protac AG240D and Diamond Stealth II
G460.

video: s3c-fb: Add support EXYNOS4 FIMD

This patch adds struct s3c_fb_driverdata s3c_fb_data_exynos4 for EXYNOS4
and adds lcd clock gating support.

FIMD driver needs two clocks for FIMD IP and LCD pixel clock. Previously,
both clocks are provided by using bus clock such as HCLK. However, EXYNOS4
can not select HCLK for LCD pixel clock because the EXYNOS4 FIMD IP does not
have the CLKSEL bit of VIDCON0. So, FIMD driver should provide the lcd clock
using SCLK_FIMD as LCD pixel clock for EXYNOS4.

The driver selects enabling lcd clock according to has_clksel which means
the CLKSEL bit of VIDCON0. If there is has_clksel, the driver will not
enable the lcd clock using SCLK_FIMD because bus clock using HCLK is used
a LCD pixel clock.

kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERT

The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
only small devices.

This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
references to the option throughout the kernel. A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).

Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
are making should enable it.

video: Fix the HGA framebuffer driver

Resurrected some old hardware and fixed up the hgafb driver to work
again. Only tested with fbcon, since most fbdev-based software appears
to only support 12bpp and up. It does not appear that this driver has
worked for at least the entire 2.6.x series, perhaps since 2002.

Hercules graphics hardware uses packed pixels horizontally, but rows are
not linear. In other words, the pixels are not packed vertically. This
means that custom imageblit, fillrect and copyarea need to be written
specific to the hardware.

* Removed the experimental acceleration option, since it is required
for the hardware to work.
* Fixed imageblit to work with fb_image's wider than 8 pixels.
* Updated configuration text (HGA hardware is from 1984)

Commit f601441916d1e19291d0b4f044b4a7551e2924d0 ("imxfb: add support for

after the menuconfig FB. This breaks the menu, presenting most of the

Moving the symbol to the start of the file, just like HAVE_FB_ATMEL, fixes
the problem without breaking it for iMX25 configurations (tested with
ARCH=arm, no build).

This patch adds a config option to enable procfs entries for direct

to no as this is really ugly and should not be needed if the driver
works correct (and if it doesn't, it needs to be fixed).
That stuff is really something that should
- not be needed at all (the driver should be capable of doing it)
- not be there (debugfs would be better for such things)
So add this option just for backwards compatiblity.

- Allocate without ioremapping
- Allocate at defined physical addresses
- Allows larger VRAM area and larger allocations

The upcoming DSS2 uses VRAM manager.

VRAM area size can be defined in kernel config, board file or with

matroxfb: make CONFIG_FB_MATROX_MULTIHEAD=y mandatory

I would like to get rid of option CONFIG_FB_MATROX_MULTIHEAD and just
always enable it. There are many reasons for doing this:

* CONFIG_FB_MATROX_MULTIHEAD=y is what all x86 distributions do, so it
definitely works or we would know by now.

* Building the matroxfb driver with CONFIG_FB_MATROX_MULTIHEAD not set
results in the following build warning:

drivers/video/matrox/matroxfb_crtc2.c: In function 'matroxfb_dh_open':
drivers/video/matrox/matroxfb_crtc2.c:265: warning: the address of 'matroxfb_global_mxinfo' will always evaluate as 'true'
drivers/video/matrox/matroxfb_crtc2.c: In function 'matroxfb_dh_release':
drivers/video/matrox/matroxfb_crtc2.c:285: warning: the address of 'matroxfb_global_mxinfo' will always evaluate as 'true'

This is nothing to be worried about, the driver will work fine, but build
warnings are still annoying.

* The trick to get multihead support without CONFIG_FB_MATROX_MULTIHEAD,
which is described in the config help text, no longer works: you can't
load the same kernel module more than once.

* I fail to see how CONFIG_FB_MATROX_MULTIHEAD=y would make the code
significantly slower, contrary to what the help text says. A few extra
parameters on the stack here and there can't really slow things down in
comaprison to the rest of the code, and register access.

* The driver built without CONFIG_FB_MATROX_MULTIHEAD is larger than the
driver build with CONFIG_FB_MATROX_MULTIHEAD=y by 8%.

* One less configuration option makes things simpler. We add options
all the time, being able to remove one for once is nice. It improves
testing coverage. And I don't think the Matrox adapters are still
popular enough to warrant overdetailed configuration settings.

* We should be able to unobfuscate the driver code quite a bit after
this change (patches follow.)

# deb2d2ec 10-Aug-2009 Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

PCI/GPU: implement VGA arbitration on Linux

Background:
Graphic devices are accessed through ranges in I/O or memory space. While most
modern devices allow relocation of such ranges, some "Legacy" VGA devices
implemented on PCI will typically have the same "hard-decoded" addresses as
they did on ISA. For more details see "PCI Bus Binding to IEEE Std 1275-1994
Standard for Boot (Initialization Configuration) Firmware Revision 2.1"
Section 7, Legacy Devices.

The Resource Access Control (RAC) module inside the X server currently does
the task of arbitration when more than one legacy device co-exists on the same
machine. But the problem happens when these devices are trying to be accessed
by different userspace clients (e.g. two server in parallel). Their address
assignments conflict. Therefore an arbitration scheme _outside_ of the X
server is needed to control the sharing of these resources. This document
introduces the operation of the VGA arbiter implemented for Linux kernel.

fbdev: remove cyblafb driver

A tridentfb driver has all the functionality of the cyblafb driver without
the bugs of the latter.

Changes to the tridentfb driver:

- FBINFO_READS_FAST added to the tridentfb. The cyblafb used a blitter
for scrolling which is faster than color expansion on Cyberblade
chipsets. The blitter is slower on a discrete Blade3D core. Use the
blitter for scrolling in the tridentfb only for integrated Blade3D
cores. Now, scrolling speed is about equal for the tridentfb and the
cyblafb.

- a copyright notice addition is done on request of Jani Monoses (the
first author of the tridentfb).

Tested on AGP Blade3D card and PCChips

fbdev/drm: fix Kconfig submenu mess in "Graphics support"

Submenus of the graphics support "Support for frame buffer devices" and
"Direct Rendering Manager (XFree86 4.1.0 and higher DRI support)" are
broken in half after latest changes for Intel 915 mode setting support.

The DRM subsection is broken because one option is put outside the choice
section it depends on.

The frame buffers part is broken then due to circular dependency. Fix
this by make Intel frame buffers depend on CONFIG_INTEL_AGP.

Kconfigs are broken by d2f59357700487a8b944f4f7777d1e97cf5ea2ed

drm/i915: select framebuffer support automatically

Migration helper.

The i915 driver recently added a 'depends on FB' rule to its
Kconfig entry - which silently turns off DRM_I915 if someone
has a working config but no CONFIG_FB selected, and upgrades
to the latest upstream kernel.

Norbert Preining reported this problem:

Bug-Entry : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12599
Subject : dri /dev node disappeared with 2.6.29-rc1

So change it to "select FB", which auto-selects framebuffer
support. This way the driver keeps working, regardless of
whether FB was enabled before or not.

Kconfig select's of interactive options can be problematic to
dependencies and can cause build breakages - but in this case
it's safe because it's a leaf entry with no dependencies of its
own.

( There is some minor circular dependency fallout as FB_I810
and FB_INTEL also used 'depends on FB' constructs - update
those to "select FB" too. )

[ARM] pxafb: add support for overlay1 and overlay2 as framebuffer devices

PXA27x and later processors support overlay1 and overlay2 on-top of the
base framebuffer (although under-neath the base is also possible). They
support palette and no-palette RGB formats, as well as YUV formats (only
available on overlay2). These overlays have dedicated DMA channels and
behave in a similar way as a framebuffer.

This heavily simplified and re-structured work is based on the original
pxafb_overlay.c (which is pending for mainline merge for a long time).

The major problems with this pxafb_overlay.c are (if you are interested
in the history):

1. heavily redundant (the control logics for overlay1 and overlay2 are
actually identical except for some small operations, which are now
abstracted into a 'pxafb_layer_ops' structure)

2. a lot of useless and un-tested code (two workarounds which are now
fixed on mature silicons)

3. cursorfb is actually useless, hardware cursor should not be used
this way, and the code was actually un-tested for a long time.

The code in this patch should be self-explanatory, I tried to add minimum
comments. As said, this is basically simplified, there are several things
still on the pending list:

1. palette mode is un-supported and un-tested (although re-using the
palette code of the base framebuffer is actually very easy now with
previous clean-up patches)

2. fb_pan_display for overlay(s) is un-supported

3. the base framebuffer can actually be abstracted by 'pxafb_layer' as
well, which will help further re-use of the code and keep a better
and consistent structure. (This is the reason I named it 'pxafb_layer'
instead of 'pxafb_overlay' or something alike)

See Documentation/fb/pxafb.txt for additional usage information.

video: sh_mobile_lcdcfb deferred io support

This patch adds sh_mobile_lcdcfb deferred io support for SYS panels.

The LCDC hardware block managed by the sh_mobile_lcdcfb driver supports
RGB or SYS panel configurations. SYS panels come with an external display
controller that is resposible for refreshing the actual LCD panel. RGB
panels are controlled directly by the LCDC and they need to be refreshed
by the LCDC hardware.

In the case of SYS panels we can save some power by configuring the LCDC
hardware block in one-shot mode. In this one-shot mode panel refresh is
managed by software. This works well together with deferred io since it
allows us to stop clocks for most of the time and only enable clocks when
we actually want to trigger an update. When there is no fbdev activity
the clocks are kept stopped which allows us to deep sleep.

The refresh rate in deferred io mode is set using platform data. The same
platform data can also be used to disable deferred io mode.

As with other deferred io frame buffers user space code should use fsync()
on the frame buffer device to trigger an update.

This is the SuperH Mobile LCDC frame buffer driver V2, adding support for
the LCDC block found in SuperH Mobile processors. The hardware supports
up to two LCD panels per LCDC block, and both RGB and SYS interfaces can
be used to hook up LCD panels/modules.

The device driver is a regular platform driver, so LCD configuration and
board specific hooks are passed to the driver using platform data. LCD
modules using SYS interface often require special configuration using the
SYS bus, and to solve this cleanly the driver provides SYS interface
operations to the board code.

Tested on sh7723 and sh7722 processors with a SYS16A QVGA panel and WVGA
panels using RGB16 and RGB18 interfaces.

fbdev: intelfb: add support for the Intel Integrated Graphics Controller 965G/965GM

Add support for the 965G and 965GM graphic chipsets to the intelfb driver. I
have a notebook with an Intel Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics
Controller and with the attached patch the framebuffer comes up. I have
tested it a bit with DirectFB to make sure it is working stable.

I also have an Intel Mobile GM945 and I compared the results, the programming
interface of the 9xx series from Intel is mostly the same, so I think the
patch should add all the functionality which the 945GM has.

fbdev: powerpc: driver for Freescale 8610 and 5121 DIU

The following features are supported:
plane 0 works as a regular frame buffer, can be accessed by /dev/fb0
plane 1 has two AOIs (area of interest), can be accessed by /dev/fb1 and /dev/fb2
plane 2 has two AOIs, can be accessed by /dev/fb3 and /dev/fb4
Special ioctls support AOIs

All /dev/fb* can be used as regular frame buffer devices, except hardware
change can only be made through /dev/fb0. Changing pixel clock has no effect
on other fbs.

Limitation of usage of AOIs:
AOIs on the same plane can not be horizonally overlapped
AOIs have horizonal order, i.e. AOI0 should be always on top of AOI1
AOIs can not beyond phisical display area. Application should check AOI geometry
before changing physical resolution on /dev/fb0

required command line parameters to preallocate memory for frame buffer diufb.

optional command line parameters to set modes and monitor
video=fslfb:[resolution][,bpp][,monitor]
Syntax:

Resolution
xres x yres-bpp@refresh_rate, the -bpp and @refresh_rate are optional
eg, 1024x768, 1280x1024, 1280x1024-32, 1280x1024@60, 1280x1024-32@60, 1280x480-32@60

Bpp
bpp=32, bpp=24, or bpp=16

Monitor
monitor=0, monitor=1, monitor=2
0 is DVI
1 is Single link LVDS
2 is Double link LVDS

Note: switching monitor is a board feather, not DIU feather. MPC8610HPCD has three
monitor ports to swtich to. MPC5121ADS doesn't have additional monitor port. So switching
monirot port for MPC5121ADS has no effect.

If compiled as a module, it takes pamameters mode, bpp, monitor with the same syntax above.

xen pvfb: Para-virtual framebuffer, keyboard and pointer driver

This is a pair of Xen para-virtual frontend device drivers:
drivers/video/xen-fbfront.c provides a framebuffer, and
drivers/input/xen-kbdfront provides keyboard and mouse.

The backends run in dom0 user space.

The two drivers are not in two separate patches, because the
intermediate step (one driver, not the other) is somewhat problematic:
the backend in dom0 needs both drivers, and will refuse to complete
device initialization unless they're both present.

x86_64 EFI boot support: EFI frame buffer driver

This patch adds Graphics Output Protocol support to the kernel. UEFI2.0 spec
deprecates Universal Graphics Adapter (UGA) protocol and only Graphics Output
Protocol (GOP) is produced. Therefore, the boot loader needs to query the
UEFI firmware with appropriate Output Protocol and pass the video information
to the kernel. As a result of GOP protocol, an EFI framebuffer driver is
needed for displaying console messages. The patch adds a EFI framebuffer
driver. The EFI frame buffer driver in this patch is based on the Intel Mac
framebuffer driver.

The ELILO bootloader takes care of passing the video information as
appropriate for EFI firmware.

The framebuffer driver has been tested in i386 kernel and x86_64 kernel on EFI
platform.

uvesafb: the driver core

uvesafb is an enhanced version of vesafb. It uses a userspace helper (v86d)
to execute calls to the x86 Video BIOS functions. The driver is not limited
to any specific arch and whether it works on a given arch or not depends on
that arch being supported by the userspace daemon. It has been tested on
x86_32 and x86_64.

A single BIOS call is represented by an instance of the uvesafb_ktask
structure. This structure contains a buffer, a completion struct and a
uvesafb_task substructure, containing the values of the x86 registers, a flags
field and a field indicating the length of the buffer. Whenever a BIOS call
is made in the driver, uvesafb_exec() builds a message using the uvesafb_task
substructure and the contents of the buffer. This message is then assigned a
random ack number and sent to the userspace daemon using the connector
interface.

The message's sequence number is used as an index for the uvfb_tasks array,
which provides a mapping from the messages coming from userspace to the
in-kernel uvesafb_ktask structs.

The userspace daemon performs the requested operation and sends a reply in the
form of a uvesafb_task struct and, optionally, a buffer. The seq and ack
numbers in the reply should be exactly the same as those in the request.

Each message from userspace is processed by uvesafb_cn_callback() and after
passing a few sanity checks leads to the completion of a BIOS call request.

fb: epson1355fb: kill off dead sh support

The SH board that was the only user for this code was removed entirely from
the kernel quite some time ago, so there's no reason to leave the stubs in
place. Additionally this driver was completely broken anyways, so there's
not really a lot of point in fixing it up either.

I can't imagine that this driver gets any testing on ARM either, given that
FB_BLANK_UNBLANKING doesn't exist, and kills the build regardless of which
platform is compiling. This fixes that, too.

It wouldn't be a lot of work to finish the platform device conversion and
go with a generic 8-bit read/write_reg and kill off the architecture
dependence completely, should someone have any use for this driver.

ACPI: video: output switch sysfs support

Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_OUTPUT_CONTROL and CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO.

After loading output.ko and video.ko, you would have
/sys/class/video_output and several device acpi_videoNum there.

For example, I got acpi_video0, acpi_video1,acpi_video2,and acpi_video3
under /sys/class/video_output on my T40.
I can query the status of output device0 by running " cat
/sys/class/video_output/acpi_video0
" The return value is defined in ACPI SPEC B.5.5 _DCS(Return the
Status of Output Device). Also you can turn off video1 and turn on
video0 by " echo 0 > acpi_video1; echo 0x80000000 > acpi_video0".
Please reference ACPI SPEC B.5.7 _DSS for the parameter definition.

Please note that it may or may NOT works purely depending on if
your vendor providing correct ACPI video extension support in bios.
the driver output.ko and video.ko just works like a interface to

- via-pmu allows the backlight to be grabbed, in which case we need to

[PATCH] fbdev: statically link the framebuffer notification functions

The backlight and lcd subsystems can be notified by the framebuffer layer
of blanking events. However, these subsystems, as a whole, can function
independently from the framebuffer layer. But in order to enable to the
lcd and backlight subsystems, the framebuffer has to be compiled also,
effectively sucking in a huge amount of unneeded code.

To prevent dependency problems, separate out the framebuffer notification
mechanism from the framebuffer layer and permanently link it to the kernel.

- much faster for almost all modes (e.g. 1280x1024-16bpp
draws more than 41 full screens of text instead of about 25
full screens of text per second on authors Epia 5000)
- module init/exit code fixed
- bugs triggered by console rotation fixed
- lots of minor improvements
- startup modes suitable for high performance scrolling
in all directions

This diff also contains a lot of white space fixes.

No side effects are possible, only one single graphics core is affected.

[PATCH] fbcon/fbdev: Move softcursor out of fbdev to fbcon

According to Jon Smirl, filling in the field fb_cursor with soft_cursor for
drivers that do not support hardware cursors is redundant. The soft_cursor
function is usable by all drivers because it is just a wrapper around
fb_imageblit. And because soft_cursor is an fbcon-specific hook, the file is
moved to the console directory.

Thus, drivers that do not support hardware cursors can leave the fb_cursor
field blank. For drivers that do, they can fill up this field with their own
version.

The end result is a smaller code size. And if the framebuffer console is not
loaded, module/kernel size is also reduced because the soft_cursor module will
also not be loaded.

[PATCH] nvidiafb: Fix absence of cursor in nvidiafb

A recent change in nvidiafb caused nvidiafb_cursor to always return -ENXIO
instead of using the soft_cursor. This will happen if the parameter "hwcur"
is not set, which happens to be the default.

[PATCH] s3c2410fb: ARM S3C2410 framebuffer driver

This set of two patches add support for the framebuffer of the Samsung S3C2410
ARM SoC. This driver was started about one year ago and is now used on iPAQ
h1930/h1940, Acer n30 and probably other s3c2410-based machines I'm not aware
of. I've also heard yesterday that it's working also on iPAQ rx3715/rx3115
(s3c2440-based machines).

[PATCH] i810fb: Add i2c/DDC support

Add ddc/i2c support for i810fb. This will allow the driver to get display
information, especially for monitors with fickle timings. The i2c support
depends on CONFIG_FB_I810_GTF.

Changed __init* to __devinit*

[PATCH] framebuffer: new driver for cyberblade/i1 graphics core

This is a framebuffer driver for the Cyberblade/i1 graphics core.

Currently tridenfb claims to support the cyberblade/i1 graphics core. This
is of very limited truth. Even vesafb is faster and provides more working
modes and a much better quality of the video signal. There is a great
number of bugs in tridentfb ... but most often it is impossible to decide
if these bugs are real bugs or if fixing them for the cyberblade/i1 core
would break support for one of the other supported chips.

Tridentfb seems to be unmaintained,and documentation for most of the
supported chips is not available. So "fixing" cyberblade/i1 support inside
of tridentfb was not an option, it would have caused numerous
if(CYBERBLADEi1) else ... cases and would have rendered the code to be
almost unmaintainable.

A first version of this driver was published on 2005-07-31. A fix for a
bug reported by Jochen Hein was integrated as well as some changes
requested by Antonino A. Daplas.

A message has been added to tridentfb to inform current users of tridentfb
to switch to cyblafb if the cyberblade/i1 graphics core is detected.

This patch is one logical change, but because of the included documentation
it is bigger than 70kb. Therefore it is not sent to lkml and
linux-fbdev-devel,

[PATCH] sisfb update

This lifts sisfb from version 1.7.17 to version 1.8.9. Changes include:

- Added support for XGI V3XT, V5, V8, Z7 chipsets, including POSTing of
all of these chipsets.

- Added support for latest SiS chipsets (761).

- Added support for SiS76x memory "hybrid" mode.

- Added support for new LCD resolutions (eg 1280x854, 856x480).

- Fixed support for 320x240 STN panels (for embedded devices).

- Fixed many HDTV modes (525p, 750p, 1080i).

- Fixed PCI config register reading/writing to use proper kernel
functions for this purpose.

- Fixed PCI ROM handling to use the kernel's proper functions.

- Removed lots of "typedef"s.

- Removed lots of code which was for X.org/XFree86 only.

- Fixed coding style in many places.

- Removed lots of 2.4 cruft.

- Reduced stack size by unifying two previously separate structs into
one.

- Added new hooks for memory allocation (for DRM). Now the driver can
truly handle multiple cards, including memory management.

- Fixed numerous minor bugs.

[PATCH] Framebuffer driver for Arc LCD board

Add support for the Arc monochrome LCD board.

The board uses KS108 controllers to drive individual 64x64 LCD matrices.
The board can be paneled in a variety of setups such as 2x1=128x64,
4x4=256x256 and so on. The board/host interface is through GPIO.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
