fb: fsync() method for deferred I/O flush. · 5e841b88

Paul Mundt authored May 08, 2007

There are cases when we do not want to wait on the delay for automatically
updating the "real" framebuffer, this implements a simple ->fsync() hook
for explicitly flushing the deferred I/O work.  The ->page_mkwrite()
handler will rearm the work queue normally.

fbdev: mm: Deferred IO support · 60b59bea

Jaya Kumar authored May 08, 2007

This implements deferred IO support in fbdev.  Deferred IO is a way to delay
and repurpose IO.  This implementation is done using mm's page_mkwrite and
page_mkclean hooks in order to detect, delay and then rewrite IO.  This
functionality is used by hecubafb.

[adaplas]
This is useful for graphics hardware with no directly addressable/mappable
framebuffer. Implementing this will allow the "framebuffer" to be accesible
from user space via mmap().

fbdev: ignore VESA modes if framebuffer is disabled · 464bdd33

Antonino A. Daplas authored May 08, 2007

If the option vga=<VESA graphics mode> is added to the boot parameter, it will
activate graphics mode, but without any framebuffer support, the user is left
with an unusable display.

Change the behavior such that the user is instead prompted for another mode
(ala vga=ask).

NOTE: People can always use vbetool to set a graphics mode if this is really
desired, but the number of people doing this approaches zero.

nvidiafb: bring back generic ddc reading · 66fd1412

Antonino A. Daplas authored May 08, 2007

Make nvidiafb use fb_ddc_read(). This patch was submitted before but was
reverted due to problems in a non-x86 platform. This includes a fix for that
where ddc reading is bypassed if there is no DDC bus (duh).

intelfb: fix ring space calculation · 71c6efd9

Orczykowski, Juergen authored May 08, 2007

If there is less than RING_MIN_FREE available in the ring buffer,
dinfo->ring_space is set to a big value forcing wait_ring to return.

Fix by making ring space = 0 if ring space < RING_MIN_FREE.

aty128fb: fix blanking · 125e1137

Witold Filipczyk authored May 08, 2007

I have a problem with blanking. The soundcard uses speakers of the monitor.
Sound is muted when the screen blanks due to a bug in aty128fb.c.

Here is a fragment of linux/fb.h
/* VESA Blanking Levels */
#define VESA_NO_BLANKING        0
#define VESA_VSYNC_SUSPEND      1
#define VESA_HSYNC_SUSPEND      2
#define VESA_POWERDOWN          3

enum {
        /* screen: unblanked, hsync: on,  vsync: on */
        FB_BLANK_UNBLANK       = VESA_NO_BLANKING,

        /* screen: blanked,   hsync: on,  vsync: on */
        FB_BLANK_NORMAL        = VESA_NO_BLANKING + 1,

        /* screen: blanked,   hsync: on,  vsync: off */
        FB_BLANK_VSYNC_SUSPEND = VESA_VSYNC_SUSPEND + 1,

        /* screen: blanked,   hsync: off, vsync: on */
        FB_BLANK_HSYNC_SUSPEND = VESA_HSYNC_SUSPEND + 1,

        /* screen: blanked,   hsync: off, vsync: off */
        FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN     = VESA_POWERDOWN + 1
};

So FB_BLANK_NORMAL is 1, FB_BLANK_VSYNC_SUSPEND is 2,
FB_BLANK_HSYNC_SUSPEND is 3, FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN is 4.
And now:
blank = FB_BLANK_NORMAL (1)
blank & FB_BLANK_HSYNC_SUSPEND (1 & 3) is true,
so normal blank caused hsync suspend and sound is muted.
