2006-06-26[PATCH] imacfb: Add Intel-based Macintosh Framebuffer SupportEdgar Hucek
This patch adds a new framebuffer driver for the Intel Based macs. This framebuffer is needed when booting from EFI to get something out the box.

2006-06-26[PATCH] fbdev: Fix logo rotation if width != heightAntonino A. Daplas
Logo drawing crashes or produces a corrupt display if the logo width and height are not equal. The dimensions are transposed prior to the actual rotation and the width is used instead of the height in the actual rotation code. These produce a corrupt image.

2006-06-26[PATCH] neofb: fix unblank logic interfering with lid toggled backlightChristian Trefzer
This is a fix for the most annoying problem that remained with neofb: After "setterm -powersave powerdown" the console blanker will disable the backlight after the given timeout expires. If this happens after the lid has been shut, we read "LCD off" from the register and store that in the driver. Once the lid is opened, the backlight turns on, but any key press that would awaken the blanked console will switch the backlight off again. The workaround so far was to use the "display config toggle" Fn key combo - once if no external display is attached, otherwise as often as required to restore the desired display setup. The following patch fixes the issue at least for the LCD-only case, with no external monitor attached. Other display setup permutations are pending further testing, but so far I can guarantee at least no negative change in behaviour, if any at all.

nVidia is churning out chipsets like there's no tomorrow. And even though the pci_device_id table now has numerous entries, it is still not guaranteed that all supported devices are included or will be included. Fortunately, nvidiafb has chipset detection logic built in. So, change the contents of the pci_device_id table so it will capture all nVidia devices of the display class. Unsupported chipsets will then be filtered out by nvidiafb's detection logic.

2006-06-26[PATCH] fbdev: More accurate sync range extrapolationAntonino A. Daplas
The EDID block should specify the display's operating limits (vertical and horizontal sync ranges, and maximum dot clock). If not given by the EDID block, the ranges are extrapolated from the modelist. However, the computation used is only a rough approximation, and the resulting values may not reflect the actual capability of the display. This problem is frequently encountered when the EDID block has a single entry, the single mode entry will fail validation. To prevent this, calculate the values based on the same method used in fb_validate_mode().

2006-06-26[PATCH] savagefb: Add state save and_restore hooksAntonino A. Daplas
Reported by: Rich (Bugzilla Bug 6417) "if savage driver is used in x.org together with savagefb, it results in seriously garbled and distorted screen - coupled with severe slowdowns." This bug is the result of Xorg unable to handle savagefb altering the hardware which results in X failing to start properly and/or failed console switching. Add savagefb_state_save and savagefb_state_restore. These hooks will only save and restore the extended VGA registers. Standard VGA registers will be left alone. This is enough to make savagefb play nicely with the latest Xorg savage driver, and perhaps with savage DRI. (Transient screen artifacts may appear before X loads and during console switches). (Unfortunately, blanking the screen also leaves Xorg in a blanked state, so I have to unblank the screen before Xorg loads. So I doubt if the transient screen artifacts will be completely invisible but hopefully it will only be for a shorter duration (not much).)

2006-06-26[PATCH] coredump: don't take tasklist_lockOleg Nesterov
This patch removes tasklist_lock from zap_threads(). This is safe wrt: do_exit: The caller holds mm->mmap_sem. This means that task which shares the same ->mm can't pass exit_mm(), so it can't be unhashed from init_task.tasks or ->thread_group lists. fork: None of sub-threads can fork after zap_process(leader). All processes which were created before this point should be visible to zap_threads() because copy_process() adds the new process to the tail of init_task.tasks list, and ->siglock lock/unlock provides a memory barrier. de_thread: It does list_replace_rcu(&leader->tasks, &current->tasks). So zap_threads() will see either old or new leader, it does not matter. However, it can change p->sighand, so we should use lock_task_sighand() in zap_process().

2006-06-26[PATCH] coredump: kill ptrace related stuffOleg Nesterov
With this patch zap_process() sets SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT while sending SIGKILL to the thread group. This means that a TASK_TRACED task 1. Will be awakened by signal_wake_up(1) 2. Can't sleep again via ptrace_notify() 3. Can't go to do_signal_stop() after return from ptrace_stop() in get_signal_to_deliver() So we can remove all ptrace related stuff from coredump path.

2006-06-26[PATCH] coredump: speedup SIGKILL sendingOleg Nesterov
With this patch a thread group is killed atomically under ->siglock. This is faster because we can use sigaddset() instead of force_sig_info() and this is used in further patches.

2006-06-26[PATCH] coredump: optimize ->mm users traversalOleg Nesterov
zap_threads() iterates over all threads to find those ones which share current->mm. All threads in the thread group share the same ->mm, so we can skip entire thread group if it has another ->mm. This patch shifts the killing of thread group into the newly added zap_process() function. This looks as unnecessary complication, but it is used in further patches.
