      PCI/GPU: implement VGA arbitration on Linux · deb2d2ec
      由 Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于 
      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.

      i.MX31: fix framebuffer locking regressions · 20de03da
      由 Guennadi Liakhovetski 提交于 
      Recent framebuffer locking patches first made affected systems unbootable,
then the dead-lock has been fixed but as of 2.6.31-rc4 the framebuffer on
mx3 machines doesn't work. Fix this.

      fbcon: don't use vc_resize() on initialization · 0035fe00
      由 Johannes Weiner 提交于 
      Catalin and kmemleak spotted a leak of a VC screen buffer in
vc_allocate() due to the following chain of events:

	vc_allocate()
	  visual_init(init=1)
	    vc->vc_sw->con_init(init=1)
              fbcon_init()
	        vc_resize()
	          vc->screen_buf = kmalloc()
	  vc->screen_buf = kmalloc()

The common way for the VC drivers is to set the screen dimension
parameters manually in the init case and only call vc_resize() for
!init - which allocates a screen buffer according to the new
dimensions.

fbcon instead would do vc_resize() unconditionally and afterwards set
the dimensions manually (again) for !init - i.e. completely upside
down.  The vc_resize() allocated buffer would then get lost by
vc_allocate() allocating a fresh one.

Use vc_resize() only for actual resizing to close the leak.

Set the dimensions manually only in initialization mode to remove the
redundant setting in resize mode.

The kmemleak trace from Catalin:

      viafb: fix rmmod bug · 52159444
      由 Florian Tobias Schandinat 提交于 
      This fixes a bug caused by changing pointers (viafb_mode, viafb_mode1)
assigned by module_param.  It reduces driver complexity by not needlessly
changing these vars as they are only read once and removing now
superfluous code.

On unpatched kernels loading viafb with viafb_mode or viafb_mode1 option
used and afterwards unloading it results in:

This is caused by the current code changing the pointers assigned by
module_param.  During unload it tries to free the memory the pointers
point at which is now part of an internal structure.

The patch simply avoids changing the pointers.  This is okay as they are
read only once during the initialization process.

      fbcon: fix rotate upside down crash · 93274e4d
      由 Stefani Seibold 提交于 
      Fix the rotate_ud() function not to crash in case of a font which has not
a width of multiple by 8: The inner loop of the font pixel copy should not
access a bit outside the font memory area.  Subtract the shift offset from
the font width will prevent this.

      fbmon: work around compiler bug in gcc-2.4.2 · 3730793d
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      There's some odd bug in gcc-4.2 where it miscompiles a simple loop whent
he loop counter is of type 'unsigned char' and it should count to 128.

The compiler will incorrectly decide that a trivial loop like this:

	unsigned char i, ...

	for (i = 0; i < 128; i++) {
		..

is endless, and will compile it to a single instruction that just
branches to itself.

This was triggered by the addition of '-fno-strict-overflow', and we
could play games with compiler versions and go back to '-fwrapv'
instead, but the trivial way to avoid it is to just make the loop
induction variable be an 'int' instead.

Thanks to Krzysztof Oledzki for reporting and testing and to Troy Moure
for digging through assembler differences and finding it.

      connector: make callback argument type explicit · 0741241c
      由 Mike Frysinger 提交于 
      The connector documentation states that the argument to the callback
function is always a pointer to a struct cn_msg, but rather than encode it
in the API itself, it uses a void pointer everywhere.  This doesn't make
much sense to encode the pointer in documentation as it prevents proper C
type checking from occurring and can easily allow people to use the wrong
pointer type.  So convert the argument type to an explicit struct cn_msg
pointer.

      video: sm501fb: Early initialization of mm_lock mutex. · f50bf2b2
      由 Paul Mundt 提交于 
      Commit 537a1bf0 (fbdev: add mutex for
fb_mmap locking) introduces a ->mm_lock mutex for protecting smem
assignments. Unfortunately in the case of sm501fb these happen quite
early in the initialization code, well before the mutex_init() that takes
place in register_framebuffer(), leading to:

   Badness at kernel/mutex.c:207

   Pid : 1, Comm:          swapper
   CPU : 0                 Not tainted  (2.6.31-rc1-00284-g529ba0d9-dirty #2273)

   PC is at __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x72/0x1bc
   PR is at __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x66/0x1bc
   ...

matroxfb appears to have the same issue and has solved it with an early
mutex_init(), so we do the same for sm501fb.
