    drm/i915: framebuffer compression for pre-GM45 · 80824003
    Jesse Barnes 提交于
    This patch adds framebuffer compression (good for about ~0.5W power
    savings in the best case) support for pre-GM45 chips.  GM45+ have a new,
    more flexible FBC scheme that will be added in a separate patch.
    
    FBC can't always be enabled: the compressed buffer must be physically
    contiguous and reside in stolen space.  So if you have a large display
    and a small amount of stolen memory, you may not be able to take
    advantage of FBC.  In some cases, a BIOS setting controls how much
    stolen space is available.  Increasing this to 8 or 16M can help.
