fbcon: when font is freed, clear also vc_font.data

2013-05-08T03:33:07+00:00

commit e6637d5427d2af9f3f33b95447bfc5347e5ccd85 upstream.

commit ae1287865f5361fa138d4d3b1b6277908b54eac9

    fbcon: don't lose the console font across generic->chip driver switch

uses a pointer in vc->vc_font.data to load font into the new driver.
However if the font is actually freed, we need to clear the data
so that we don't reload font from dangling pointer.

Lovely conflict in radeon/evergreen_cs.c between commit de0babd60d8d
("drm/radeon: enforce use of radeon_get_ib_value when reading user cmd")
and the new changes that modified that evergreen_dma_cs_parse()
function.

fbcon: clear the logo bitmap from the margin area

2013-02-22T01:22:16+00:00

Explicitly clear_margins when clearing the logo, in case the font dimensions
are non-integral to the framebuffer dimensions.

Merge branch 'console-fixes' into drm-next

2013-02-08T02:13:43+00:00

(not the fbcon maintainer pull 2)

fix bug in vgacon on bootup and fbcon losing fonts on startup.

* console-fixes: (50 commits)
  fbcon: don't lose the console font across generic->chip driver switch
  vgacon/vt: clear buffer attributes when we load a 512 character font (v2)

fbcon: fix locking harder

2013-02-08T02:02:43+00:00

Okay so Alan's patch handled the case where there was no registered fbcon,
however the other path entered in set_con2fb_map pit.

In there we called fbcon_takeover, but we also took the console lock in a couple
of places. So push the console lock out to the callers of set_con2fb_map,

this means fbmem and switcheroo needed to take the lock around the fb notifier
entry points that lead to this.

This should fix the efifb regression seen by Maarten.

fb: Yet another band-aid for fixing lockdep mess

2013-02-08T02:02:41+00:00

I've still got lockdep warnings even after Alan's patch, and it seems that
yet more band aids are required to paper over similar paths for
unbind_con_driver() and unregister_con_driver().  After this hack, lockdep
warnings are finally gone.

fb: rework locking to fix lock ordering on takeover

2013-02-08T02:02:40+00:00

Adjust the console layer to allow a take over call where the caller
already holds the locks.  Make the fb layer lock in order.

This is partly a band aid, the fb layer is terminally confused about the
locking rules it uses for its notifiers it seems.

fbcon: don't lose the console font across generic->chip driver switch

2013-02-07T02:37:19+00:00

If grub2 loads efifb/vesafb, then when systemd starts it can set the console
font on that framebuffer device, however when we then load the native KMS
driver, the first thing it does is tear down the generic framebuffer driver.

The thing is the generic code is doing the right thing, it frees the font
because otherwise it would leak memory. However we can assume that if you
are removing the generic firmware driver (vesa/efi/offb), that a new driver
*should* be loading soon after, so we effectively leak the font.

However the old code left a dangling pointer in vc->vc_font.data and we
can now reuse that dangling pointer to load the font into the new
driver, now that we aren't freeing it.

vgacon/vt: clear buffer attributes when we load a 512 character font (v2)

2013-02-07T02:37:03+00:00

When we switch from 256->512 byte font rendering mode, it means the
current contents of the screen is being reinterpreted. The bit that holds
the high bit of the 9-bit font, may have been previously set, and thus
the new font misrenders.

The problem case we see is grub2 writes spaces with the bit set, so it
ends up with data like 0x820, which gets reinterpreted into 0x120 char
which the font translates into G with a circumflex. This flashes up on
screen at boot and is quite ugly.

A current side effect of this patch though is that any rendering on the
screen changes color to a slightly darker color, but at least the screen
no longer corrupts.

v2: as suggested by hpa, always clear the attribute space, whether we
are are going to or from 512 chars.
