sticore: don't activate unsupported GSC STI cards on HPPA

2008-07-30T16:41:43+00:00

On HPPA there exists some older GSC graphics cards, which need special
graphic-card-BIOS patching to become supported.  Since we don't have yet
implemented the patching, it's better to detect such cards in advance,
inform to the user that there are known problems and to not activate the
card.

Problematic GSC cards and BIOS versions are:
* Hyperdrive/Hyperbowl (A4071A) graphics card series:
   * ID = 0x2BCB015A (Version 8.04/8)
   * ID = 0x2BCB015A (Version 8.04/11)
* Thunder 1 VISUALIZE 48 card:
   * ID = 0x2F23E5FC (Version 8.05/9)
* Thunder 2 VISUALIZE 48 XP card:
   * ID = 0x2F8D570E (Version 8.05/12)
* Some Hyperion and ThunderHawk GSC cards

video/console/stico{n,re}.c: make code static

2008-07-26T19:00:12+00:00

This patch makes the following needlessly global code static:
 - sticon.c: sticonsole_init()
 - sticore.c: struct default_sti
 - sticore.c: sti_init_graph()
 - sticore.c: sti_inq_conf()
 - sticore.c: sti_rom_copy()
 - sticore.c: sti_select_fbfont()
 - sticore.c: sti_select_font()
 - sticore.c: sti_get_wmode_rom()
 - sticore.c: sti_read_rom()

[PARISC] Clean up sti_flush

2007-08-27T04:29:23+00:00

sti_flush is supposed to flush the caches so we can execute the STI rom
we copied to memory. Anything more than flush_icache_range is overkill.

Fixes a missing symbol when built as a module.

[PARISC] fix section mismatch in parisc STI video drivers

2007-05-27T16:14:53+00:00

Hi Kyle,

this patch fixes various section mismatches in the sti graphics driver:
WARNING: drivers/built-in.o(.text.sticore_pci_init+0xac): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:sti_try_rom_generic (after 'sticore_pci_init')
WARNING: drivers/built-in.o(.text.sticore_pci_init+0xe4): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:sticore_check_for_default_sti (after 'sticore_pci_init')
WARNING: drivers/built-in.o(.text.sti_get_rom+0x18): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:sti_init_roms (after 'sti_get_rom')
(and others).

Basically it's a replacement of __init by __devinit.
Please apply, Helge

fbcon: font setting should check limitation of driver

2007-05-08T18:15:31+00:00

fbcon_set_font() will now check if the new font dimensions can be drawn by the
driver (by checking pixmap.blit_x and blit_y).  Similarly, add 2 new
parameters to get_default_font(), font_w and font_h, to further aid in the
font selection process.

[PATCH] Don't pass boot parameters to argv_init[]

2006-03-31T20:18:53+00:00

The boot cmdline is parsed in parse_early_param() and
parse_args(,unknown_bootoption).

And __setup() is used in obsolete_checksetup().

	start_kernel()
		-> parse_args()
			-> unknown_bootoption()
				-> obsolete_checksetup()

If __setup()'s callback (->setup_func()) returns 1 in
obsolete_checksetup(), obsolete_checksetup() thinks a parameter was
handled.

If ->setup_func() returns 0, obsolete_checksetup() tries other
->setup_func().  If all ->setup_func() that matched a parameter returns 0,
a parameter is seted to argv_init[].

Then, when runing /sbin/init or init=app, argv_init[] is passed to the app.
If the app doesn't ignore those arguments, it will warning and exit.

This patch fixes a wrong usage of it, however fixes obvious one only.

Kill various warnings when built using ioremap.
Remove stifb_{read,write} functions, which are now obsolete (and stack abusers!)
