linux-toradex.git/drivers/video/console, branch v3.2.27 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules locking, video: Annotate vga console lock as raw 2011-09-13T09:12:04+00:00 Thomas Gleixner tglx@linutronix.de 2009-07-25T14:17:02+00:00 6b2c1800f1d3a608af952cfbd57f8f1a71c5d9b4 The vga_lock lock can be taken in atomic context and therefore cannot be preempted on -rt - annotate it. In mainline this change documents the low level nature of the lock - otherwise there's no functional difference. Lockdep and Sparse checking will work as usual.

fbcon: fix situation where fbcon gets deinitialised and can't reinit. 2011-03-22T08:22:19+00:00 Dave Airlie airlied@redhat.com 2010-12-21T01:41:17+00:00 32b98bf8752c5483481f77d48934aba26c967fcd Situation as follow: 2 GPUs + vesafb + kms. GPU 1 is primary, vesafb binds to it as fb0 radeon loads GPU 0 loads as fb1 GPU 1 loads, vesafb gets kicked off which causes fb0 to unbind console, which causes the dummy console to rebind. this means fbcon_deinit gets called, which calls fbcon_exit since the console isn't bound anymore and we set fbcon_has_exited. GPU 1 creates a new fb0 which is primary and we want to be console. fbcon_fb_registered gets called sets the primary up and calls set_con2fb_map, however as fbcon_has_exited is set nothing further ever happens. This patch bypasses the fbcon_has_exited and checks if the console is unbound, if its unbound it calls the fbcon_takeover which calls the vt layer to call the fbcon_startup method and everthing works.

Situation as follow:
2 GPUs + vesafb + kms.

GPU 1 is primary, vesafb binds to it as fb0
radeon loads
GPU 0 loads as fb1
GPU 1 loads, vesafb gets kicked off which causes fb0 to unbind
console, which causes the dummy console to rebind.

this means fbcon_deinit gets called, which calls fbcon_exit
since the console isn't bound anymore and we set fbcon_has_exited.

GPU 1 creates a new fb0 which is primary and we want to be console.
fbcon_fb_registered gets called sets the primary up and calls set_con2fb_map,
however as fbcon_has_exited is set nothing further ever happens.

This patch bypasses the fbcon_has_exited and checks if the console is unbound,
if its unbound it calls the fbcon_takeover which calls the vt layer to
call the fbcon_startup method and everthing works.

(Tile Blitting Operation in framebuffer console). The old mask 0x01 for vc_cursor_type detects CUR_NONE, CUR_LOWER_THIRD and every second mode value as "software cursor".

This commit makes things use more neutral function names which dont make

The only real change is the return value of console_trylock which is

This patch also paves the way to switching console_sem from a semaphore to
