console: rename acquire/release_console_sem() to console_lock/unlock()

2011-01-26T00:50:06+00:00

The -rt patches change the console_semaphore to console_mutex.  As a
result, a quite large chunk of the patches changes all
acquire/release_console_sem() to acquire/release_console_mutex()

This commit makes things use more neutral function names which dont make
implications about the underlying lock.

The only real change is the return value of console_trylock which is
inverted from try_acquire_console_sem()

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

lxfb: fix incorrect __init annotation

2010-06-29T22:29:31+00:00

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x196e8): Section mismatch in reference from the
variable lxfb_driver to the function .init.text:lxfb_probe() The variable
lxfb_driver references the function __init lxfb_probe()

This changes lxfb_probe and friends to use __devinit, and also adds
__devexit to lxfb_remove.

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

2010-03-30T13:02:32+00:00

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

lxfb: properly alloc cmap in all cases and don't leak the memory

2009-02-11T22:25:34+00:00

We weren't properly allocating the cmap for depths greater than 8bpp,
which caused pain for things like DirectFB.  Also, we never freed the cmap
memory upon module unload..

pci: use pci_ioremap_bar() in drivers/video

2009-01-06T23:59:26+00:00

Use the newly introduced pci_ioremap_bar() function in drivers/video.
pci_ioremap_bar() just takes a pci device and a bar number, with the goal
of making it really hard to get wrong, while also having a central place
to stick sanity checks.

OLPC: gxfb/lxfb: add DCON panel modes to framebuffer drivers

2008-04-28T15:58:40+00:00

Since there's no way to autodetect panel modes, we're forced to hardcode them
in the driver and add a big fat #ifdef.  The OLPC DCON needs a specific mode
line (at 1200x900).  This adds it to both gxfb and lxfb.

(Jordan said: We could probably detect the panel mode, but there isn't any
reason to since the panel timings are well known and won't change.  While OFW
detection would be good computer science fu, it would be a wasted effort since
its so easy to hard code them into the table.)

lxfb: add power management functionality

2008-04-28T15:58:39+00:00

This adds the ability to suspend/resume the lxfb driver, which includes:
  - Register and palette saving code; registers are stored in lxfb_par.
    A few MSR values are saved as well.
  - lx_powerup and lx_powerdown functions which restore/save registers and
    enable/disable graphic engines.
  - lxfb_suspend/lxfb_resume

Originally based on a patch by Jordan Crouse.
