Some chips appear to have the 2D engine hang during screen redraw,
typically in a sequence of copyarea operations. This appear to be
solved by adding a flush of the engine destination pixel cache
and waiting for the engine to be idle before issuing the accel
operation. The performance impact seems to be fairly small.
Here is a trace on an RV370 (PCI device ID 0x5b64), it records the
RBBM_STATUS register, then the source x/y, destination x/y, and
width/height used for the copy:
----------------------------------------

----------------------------------------
When things are going fine the copies complete before the next ROP is
even issued, but all of a sudden the 2D unit becomes active (bit 17 in
RBBM_STATUS) and the FIFO retry (bit 13) and FIFO pipeline busy (bit
14) are set as well. The FIFO begins to backup until it becomes full.
What happens next is the radeon_fifo_wait() times out, and we access
the chip illegally leading to a bus error which usually wedges the
box. None of this makes it to the console screen, of course :-)
radeon_fifo_wait() should be modified to reset the accelerator when
this timeout happens instead of programming the chip anyways.

Ker:xnel panic - not syncing: Irrecoverable deferred error trap.
----------------------------------------
Another quirk is that these copyarea calls will not happen until the
first drivers/char/vt.c:redraw_screen() occurs. This will only happen
if you 1) VC switch or 2) run "consolechars" or 3) unblank the screen.
This seems to happen because until a redraw_screen() the screen scrolling
method used by fbcon is not finalized yet. I've seen this with other fb
drivers too.
So if all you do is boot straight into X you will never see this bug on
the relevant chips.

I have a new PCI-E radeon RV380 series card (PCI device ID 5b64) that
hangs in my sparc64 boxes when the init scripts set the font. The problem
goes away if I disable acceleration.
I haven't figured out that bug yet, but along the way I found some
corrections to make based upon some auditing.
1) The RB2D_DC_FLUSH_ALL value used by the kernel fb driver
and the XORG video driver differ. I've made the kernel
match what XORG is using.
2) In radeonfb_engine_reset() we have top-level code structure
that roughly looks like:
if (family is 300, 350, or V350)
do this;
else
do that;
...
if (family is NOT 300, OR
family is NOT 350, OR
family is NOT V350)
do another thing;
this last conditional makes no sense, is always true,
and obviously was likely meant to be "family is NOT
300, 350, or V350". So I've made the code match the
intent.

This fixes a problem introduced with commit
b5f2f4d1a6d7efde39cfb5e1d034981c69f2214c
The commit added a wrong chip definition to radeonfb which causes
a blank console on my Laptop if radeonfb is loaded.
The patch
- renames PCI_CHIP_RS485_5975 to PCI_CHIP_RS482_5975
- corrects the chip family (RS480 instead of R300) for 0x5975
- ensures that PCI IDs are in ascending order in ati_ids.h

The current scheme works on static interpretation of text names, which
is wrong.
The output-device setting, for example, must be resolved via an alias
or similar to a full path name to the console device.
Paths also contain an optional set of 'options', which starts with a
colon at the end of the path. The option area is used to specify
which of two serial ports ('a' or 'b') the path refers to when a
device node drives multiple ports. 'a' is assumed if the option
specification is missing.
This was caught by the UltraSPARC-T1 simulator. The 'output-device'
property was set to 'ttya' and we didn't pick upon the fact that this
is an OBP alias set to '/virtual-devices/console'. Instead we saw it
as the first serial console device, instead of the hypervisor console.
The infrastructure is now there to take advantage of this to resolve
the console correctly even in multi-head situations in fbcon too.
Thanks to Greg Onufer for the bug report.

sysfs binary attributes
Well, first of all, I don't want to change so many files either.
What I do:
Adding a new parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in the
.read/.write methods for the sysfs binary attributes.
In fact, only the four lines change in fs/sysfs/bin.c and
include/linux/sysfs.h do the real work.
But I have to update all the files that use binary attributes
to make them compatible with the new .read and .write methods.
I'm not sure if I missed any. :(
Why I do this:
For a sysfs attribute, we can get a pointer pointing to the
struct attribute in the .show/.store method,
while we can't do this for the binary attributes.
I don't know why this is different, but this does make it not
so handy to use the binary attributes as the regular ones.
So I think this patch is reasonable. :)
Who benefits from it:
The patch that exposes ACPI tables in sysfs
requires such an improvement.
All the table binary attributes share the same .read method.
Parameter "struct bin_attribute *" is used to get
the table signature and instance number which are used to
distinguish different ACPI table binary attributes.
Without this parameter, we need to offer different .read methods
for different ACPI table binary attributes.
This is impossible as there are various ACPI tables on different
platforms, and we don't know what they are until they are loaded.

sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game. After
deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper,
so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners. Note that
often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to
accessing removed modules.
This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner. Note that with
this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the
backing module from being unloaded.
For more info regarding lifetime rule cleanup, please read the
following message.

Fix a regression on Apple iBook1. Changes in the clock init code caused an
incorrect XCLK frequency to be used leading to a corrupted display.

Reorganize atyfb clock init code so command line clock overrides are effective
for all chips. The old code would silently ignore some of the command line
clock overrides with some chips.

I have a problem with blanking. The soundcard uses speakers of the monitor.
Sound is muted when the screen blanks due to a bug in aty128fb.c.
Here is a fragment of linux/fb.h
/* VESA Blanking Levels */
#define VESA_NO_BLANKING 0
#define VESA_VSYNC_SUSPEND 1
#define VESA_HSYNC_SUSPEND 2
#define VESA_POWERDOWN 3
enum {
/* screen: unblanked, hsync: on, vsync: on */
FB_BLANK_UNBLANK = VESA_NO_BLANKING,
/* screen: blanked, hsync: on, vsync: on */
FB_BLANK_NORMAL = VESA_NO_BLANKING + 1,
/* screen: blanked, hsync: on, vsync: off */
FB_BLANK_VSYNC_SUSPEND = VESA_VSYNC_SUSPEND + 1,
/* screen: blanked, hsync: off, vsync: on */
FB_BLANK_HSYNC_SUSPEND = VESA_HSYNC_SUSPEND + 1,
/* screen: blanked, hsync: off, vsync: off */
FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN = VESA_POWERDOWN + 1
};
So FB_BLANK_NORMAL is 1, FB_BLANK_VSYNC_SUSPEND is 2,
FB_BLANK_HSYNC_SUSPEND is 3, FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN is 4.
And now:
blank = FB_BLANK_NORMAL (1)
blank & FB_BLANK_HSYNC_SUSPEND (1 & 3) is true,
so normal blank caused hsync suspend and sound is muted.
