CT based mach64 cards were reported to hang on sparc64 boxes when
compiled with gcc-4.1.x and later.
Looking at this piece of code, it's no surprise. A critical
delay was implemented as an empty for() loop, and gcc 4.0.x
and previous did not optimize it away, so we did get a delay.
But gcc-4.1.x and later can optimize it away, and we get crashes.
Use a real udelay() to fix this. Fix verified on SunBlade100.

Currently sm501fb_crtsrc_store() won't allow the routing to be changed via
echos from userspace in to the sysfs file. The reason for this is that the
strnicmp() for both heads uses a sizeof() for the string length, which ends
up being strlen() + 1 (\0 in the normal case, but the echo gives a newline,
which is where the issue occurs), this then causes a mismatch and
subsequently bails with the -EINVAL.
In addition to this, the hardcoded lengths were then used for the store
length that was returned, which ended up being erroneous and resulting in a
write error. There's also no point in returning anything but the full
length since it will -EINVAL out on a mismatch well before then anyways.
sizeof("string") is great for making sure you have space in your buffer,
but rather less so for string comparisons :-)

Enabling the backlight by default appears to cause problems for many

enabled by users via a module parameter. Since PMAC users are known
to work, default to enabled in that case.

If you'll recall, over a year ago, I pointed out that the current
Radeon driver erroneously returns -EINVAL for valid blanking codes,
here is a link to that thread:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/1/28/6
No other driver does this, and it confuses the X server into thinking
that the device does not support blanking properly.
I looked again and there is simply no reason for the Radeon driver to
return -EINVAL for FB_BLANK_NORMAL. It claims it wants to do this in
order to convince fbcon to blank in software, right here:
if (fb_blank(info, blank))
fbcon_generic_blank(vc, info, blank);
to software blank the screen. But it only causes that to happen
in the FB_BLANK_NORMAL case.
That makes no sense because the Radeon code does this:
val |= CRTC_DISPLAY_DIS;
in the FB_BLANK_NORMAL case so should be blanking the hardware, and
there is therefore no reason to SW blank by returning -EINVAL.

Driver for the Silicon Motion SM501 multifunction device framebuffer
subsystem.
This driver supports both the CRT and LCD panel heads, with some simple
acceleration for the cursor plotting and support for screen panning. There
is no current support for bitblt/drawing engines, which should be added at
a later date.
This has been tested on a number of configurations, including PCI and
generic-bus, on PPC, ARM and SH4

fb_info->bl_mutex is badly thought out and the backlight class doesn't
need it if the framebuffer/backlight register/unregister order is
consistent, particularly after the backlight locking fixes.
Fix the drivers to use the order:
backlight_device_register()
register_framebuffer()
unregister_framebuffer()
backlight_device_unregister()
and turn bl_mutex into a lock for the bl_curve data only.

The backlight class wants notification whenever the console is blanked
but doesn't get this when hardware blanking fails and software blanking
is used. Changing FB_EVENT_BLANK to report both would be a behaviour
change which could confuse the console layer so add a new event for
software blanking and have the backlight class listen for both.

Convert internal semaphore to a mutex
Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
|
|
backlight_device->sem has a very specific use as documented in the
header file. The external users of this are using it for a different
reason, to serialise access to the update_status() method.
backlight users were supposed to implement their own internal
serialisation of update_status() if needed but everyone is doing
things differently and incorrectly. Therefore add a global mutex to
take care of serialisation for everyone, once and for all.
Locking for get_brightness remains optional since most users don't
need it.
Also update the lcd class in a similar way.

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.
To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.
Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

fb_videomode_to_var(): reset the virtual screen parameters when converting
from an fb_videomode to an fb_var_screeninfo.
Without this the old virtual screen parameters are kept. Hence you cannot
switch to a video mode with a lower resolution on frame buffer devices that
don't support virtual screens and panning, as values are not supposed to be
rounded down when they don't fit.
I also reordered the assignments to match the order of the individual members.
