2007-09-13radeonfb: fix chip definition for Radeon Xpress 200M 0x5975aherrman@arcor.de
This fixes a problem introduced with commit b5f2f4d1a6d7efde39cfb5e1d034981c69f2214c The commit added a wrong chip definition to radeonfb which causes a blank console on my Laptop if radeonfb is loaded. The patch - renames PCI_CHIP_RS485_5975 to PCI_CHIP_RS482_5975 - corrects the chip family (RS480 instead of R300) for 0x5975 - ensures that PCI IDs are in ascending order in ati_ids.h Signed-off-by: Andreas Herrmann <aherrman@arcor.de> Tentatively-acked-by: Ben Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2007-09-11Subject: [PATCH] Intel FB pixel clock calculation fixKrzysztof Halasa
Intel framebuffer mis-calculated pixel clocks. The pixel clock (and thus both H and V sync) will be slower than requested, so if you set the minimum allowed the display may not sync. In case of really old CRT display it could theoretically damage it. I'm using it with PAL TV (using RGB input - SCART connector) and the bug prevented it from working at all (TV requirements are more strict and made the bug visible).

This builds upon my previous attempts to resolve some jitter problems seen with the Matrox G450 and G550 -based cards, including odd disparities observed between x86 and Power -based machines in a somewhat less hackish way (removing the hacked ifdefs). Apparently, preference should be given to use the DVI PLL when frequencies permit, the Standard PLL otherwise. The max pixel clock for the panellink interface is extracted from the PInS information on the card and used as a limit to determine which PLL to use. Signed-off-by: Paul A.

2007-08-11stifb: detect cards in double buffer mode more reliablyHelge Deller
Visualize-EG, Graffiti and A4450A graphics cards on PARISC can be configured in double-buffer and standard mode, but the stifb driver supports standard mode only. This patch detects double-buffered cards more reliable. It is a real bugfix for a very nasty problem for all parisc users which have wrongly configured their graphic card. The problem: The stifb graphics driver will not detect that the card is wrongly configured and then nevertheless just enables the graphics mode, which it shouldn't. In the end, the user will see no further updates / boot messages on the screen. We had documented this problem already on our FAQ (http://parisc-linux.org/faq/index.html#viseg "Why do I get corrupted graphics with my Vis-EG/Graffiti/A4450A card?") but people still run into this problem. So having this fix in as early as possible can help us.

2007-07-30[VIDEO]: Fix OOPS in all SBUS framebuffer drivers.David S. Miller
All of these drivers use a silly: struct all_info { struct fb_info info; struct foo_par par; }; struct all_info *all = kzalloc(sizeof(*all), GFP_KERNEL); all->info.par = &all->par; etc. etc. code sequence, basically replicating the provided framebuffer_alloc()/framebuffer_release(), and doing it badly. Not only is this massive code duplication, it also caused a bug in that we weren't setting the fb_info->device pointer which results in an OOPS when fb_is_primary_device() runs. Fix all of this by using framebuffer_{alloc,release}() and passing in "&of_device->dev" as the device pointer. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2007-07-20[SPARC]: Fix serial console device detection.David S. Miller
The current scheme works on static interpretation of text names, which is wrong. The output-device setting, for example, must be resolved via an alias or similar to a full path name to the console device. Paths also contain an optional set of 'options', which starts with a colon at the end of the path. The option area is used to specify which of two serial ports ('a' or 'b') the path refers to when a device node drives multiple ports. 'a' is assumed if the option specification is missing. This was caught by the UltraSPARC-T1 simulator. The 'output-device' property was set to 'ttya' and we didn't pick upon the fact that this is an OBP alias set to '/virtual-devices/console'. Instead we saw it as the first serial console device, instead of the hypervisor console. The infrastructure is now there to take advantage of this to resolve the console correctly even in multi-head situations in fbcon too. Thanks to Greg Onufer for the bug report.

Transform some calls to kmalloc/memset to a single kzalloc (or kcalloc). Here is a short excerpt of the semantic patch performing this transformation: @@ type T2; expression x; identifier f,fld; expression E; expression E1,E2; expression e1,e2,e3,y; statement S; @@ x = - kmalloc + kzalloc (E1,E2) ... when != \(x->fld=E;\|y=f(...,x,...);\|f(...,x,...);\|x=E;\|while(...)
