Since commit [1] consolidated console configuration in
drivers/video/console, DUMMY_CONSOLE has always been enabled, since the
dependency is always satisfied.
There is no point in trying to allow it to be configured out, since
(a) it's tiny, and (b) if VT_CONSOLE is enabled, we must have a working
console driver by the time con_init(vt.c) runs, and only dummycon is
guaranteed to work (vgacon may be configured in, but that doesn't mean
we have a VGA device).
So just remove the fake dependency.

When CONFIG_VGACON_SOFT_SCROLLBACK is selected, the VGA display memory
index and vc_visible_origin don't change when scrollback is activated.
The actual screen content is saved away and the scrollbackdata is copied
over it. However the vt code, and /dev/vcs devices in particular, still
expect vc_origin to always point at the actual screen content not the
displayed scrollback content.
So adjust vc_origin to point at the saved screen content when scrollback
is active and set it back to vc_visible_origin when restoring the screen.
This fixes /dev/vcsa<n> that return scrollback content when they
shouldn't (onli /dev/vcsa without a number should), and also fixes
/dev/vcsu that should return scrollback content when scrollback is
active but currently doesn't.
An unnecessary call to vga_set_mem_top() is also removed.

Having FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER only when fbdev+fbcon are

checking the wrong option, fbcon is build as part of fb.ko, so we must

It's been a pretty good while since kernel modesetting was introduced.
It has almost entirely replaced previous solutions which required
userspace modesetting, and I can't even recall any drivers off the top
of my head for modern day hardware that don't only support one or the
other. Even nvidia's ugly blob does not require the use of nomodeset,
and only requires that nouveau be blacklisted.
Effectively, the only thing nomodeset does in the year 2018 is disable
your graphics drivers. Since VESA is a thing, this will give many users
the false impression that they've actually fixed an issue they were
having with their machine simply because the laptop will boot up to a
degraded GUI. This of course, is never actually the case.
Things get even worse when you consider that there's still an enormous
amount of tutorials users find on the internet that still suggest adding
nomodeset, along with various users who have been around long enough to
still suggest it.
There really isn't any legitimate reason I can see for this to be an
option that's used by anyone else other then developers, or properly
informed users. So, let's end the confusion and start printing warnings
whenever it's enabled.

Currently fbcon claims fbdevs as soon as they are registered and takes over
the console as soon as the first fbdev gets registered.
This behavior is undesirable in cases where a smooth graphical bootup is
desired, in such cases we typically want the contents of the framebuffer
(typically a vendor logo) to stay in place as is.
The current solution for this problem (on embedded systems) is to not
enable fbcon.
This commit adds a new FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER config option,
which when enabled defers fbcon taking over the console from the dummy
console until the first text is displayed on the console. Together with the
"quiet" kernel commandline option, this allows fbcon to still be used
together with a smooth graphical bootup, having it take over the console as
soon as e.g. an error message is logged.
Note the choice to detect the first console output in the dummycon driver,
rather then handling this entirely inside the fbcon code, was made after
2 failed attempts to handle this entirely inside the fbcon code. The fbcon
code is woven quite tightly into the console code, making this to only
feasible option.

This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv, m32r,
metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device drivers.
I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to ensure
that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely unused in
mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the respective
ports to start with and getting them included in upstream, but also saw
no point in keeping the port alive without any users.
In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely
different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company
in charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software
ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf
CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It seems
that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not used the
custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In contrast,
CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively maintained
kernel ports tend to all be used across multiple licensees.
The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at
https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/. Unlike the original plans, I'm not
marking any ports as deprecated but remove them all at once after I made
sure that they are all unused. Some architectures (notably tile, mn10300,
and blackfin) are still being shipped in products with old kernels,
but those products will never be updated to newer kernel releases.
After this series, we still have a few architectures without mainline
gcc support:
- unicore32 and hexagon both have very outdated gcc releases, but the
maintainers promised to work on providing something newer. At least
in case of hexagon, this will only be llvm, not gcc.
- openrisc, risc-v and nds32 are still in the process of finishing their
support or getting it added to mainline gcc in the first place.
They all have patched gcc-7.3 ports that work to some degree, but
complete upstream support won't happen before gcc-8.1. Csky posted
their first kernel patch set last week, their situation will be similar.

The S390 architecture does not support any graphics hardware,
but with the latest support for Virtio GPU in Linux and Virtio
GPU emulation in QEMU, it's possible to enable graphics for
S390 using the Virtio GPU device.
To enable display we need to enable the Linux Virtual Terminal (VT)
layer for S390. But the VT subsystem initializes quite early
at boot so we need a dummy console driver till the Virtio GPU
driver is initialized and we can run the framebuffer console.
The framebuffer console over a Virtio GPU device can be run
in combination with the serial SCLP console (default on S390).
The SCLP console can still be accessed by management applications
(eg: via Libvirt's virsh console).

we would also need to enable the dummy console. So let's remove the
HAS_IOMEM dependency.
Move this dependency to sub menu items and console drivers that use
io memory.

Set the resource type when we reserve VGA-related I/O port resources.
The resource code doesn't actually look at the type, so it inserts
resources without a type in the tree correctly even without this change.
But if we ever print a resource without a type, it looks like this:
vga+ [??? 0x000003c0-0x000003df flags 0x0]
Setting the type means it will be printed correctly as:
vga+ [io 0x000003c0-0x000003df]

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

There's a bunch of folks who're trying to make printk less
contended and faster, but there's a problem: printk uses the
console_lock, and the console lock has become the BKL for all things
fbdev/fbcon, which in turn pulled in half the drm subsystem under that
lock. That's awkward.
There reasons for that is probably just a historical accident:
- fbcon is a runtime option of fbdev, i.e. at runtime you can pick
whether your fbdev driver instances are used as kernel consoles.
Unfortunately this wasn't implemented with some module option, but
through some module loading magic: As long as you don't load
fbcon.ko, there's no fbdev console support, but loading it (in any
order wrt fbdev drivers) will create console instances for all fbdev
drivers.
- This was implemented through a notifier chain. fbcon.ko enumerates
all fbdev instances at load time and also registers itself as
listener in the fbdev notifier. The fbdev core tries to register new
fbdev instances with fbcon using the notifier.
- On top of that the modifier chain is also used at runtime by the
fbdev subsystem to e.g. control backlights for panels.
- The problem is that the notifier puts a mutex locking context
between fbdev and fbcon, which mixes up the locking contexts for
both the runtime usage and the register time usage to notify fbcon.
And at runtime fbcon (through the fbdev core) might call into the
notifier from a printk critical section while console_lock is held.
- This means console_lock must be an outer lock for the entire fbdev
subsystem, which also means it must be acquired when registering a
new framebuffer driver as the outermost lock since we might call
into fbcon (through the notifier) which would result in a locking
inversion if fbcon would acquire the console_lock from its notifier
callback (which it needs to register the console).
- console_lock can be held anywhere, since printk can be called
anywhere, and through the above story, plus drm/kms being an fbdev
driver, we pull in a shocking amount of locking hiercharchy
underneath the console_lock. Which makes cleaning up printk really
hard (not even splitting console_lock into an rwsem is all that
useful due to this).
There's various ways to address this, but the cleanest would be to
make fbcon a compile-time option, where fbdev directly calls the fbcon
register functions from register_framebuffer, or dummy static inline
versions if fbcon is disabled. Maybe augmented with a runtime knob to
disable fbcon, if that's needed (for debugging perhaps).
But this could break some users who rely on the magic "loading
fbcon.ko enables/disables fbdev framebuffers at runtime" thing, even
if that's unlikely. Hence we must be careful:
1. Create a compile-time dependency between fbcon and fbdev in the
least minimal way. This is what this patch does.
2. Wait at least 1 year to give possible users time to scream about
how we broke their setup. Unlikely, since all distros make fbcon
compile-in, and embedded platforms only compile stuff they know they
need anyway. But still.
3. Convert the notifier to direct functions calls, with dummy static
inlines if fbcon is disabled. We'll still need the fb notifier for the
other uses (like backlights), but we can probably move it into the fb
core (atm it must be built-into vmlinux).
4. Push console_lock down the call-chain, until it is down in
console_register again.
5. Finally start to clean up and rework the printk/console locking.

console: implement lockdep support for console_lock
On the patch itself:
- Switch CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE to be a boolean, using the overall
CONFIG_FB tristate to decided whether it should be a module or
built-in.
- At first I thought I could force the build depency with just a dummy
symbol that fbcon.ko exports and fb.ko uses. But that leads to a
module depency cycle (it works fine when built-in).
Since this tight binding is the entire goal the simplest solution is
to move all the fbcon modules (and there's a bunch of optinal
source-files which are each modules of their own, for no good
reason) into the overall fb.ko core module. That's a bit more than
what I would have liked to do in this patch, but oh well.

Note that we take x and y as unsigned now. But they are absolute
coordinates, so this is no problem.

Given every user of mda_vram_base expects a pointer, let
mda_vram_base be a pointer to u16.
The offset calculation in mda_detect had to be adjusted by / 2 (due to
different pointer arithmetic now).
We introduce a cast to a value returned from VGA_MAP_MEM. But I will
change VGA_MAP_MEM to return a pointer later too. But vgacon needs a
similar change first.

Add a scrollback buffers for each VGA console. The benefit is that
the scrollback history is not flushed when switching between consoles
but is persistent.
The buffers are allocated on demand when a new console is opened.
This breaks tools like clear_console that rely on flushing the
scrollback history by switching back and forth between consoles
which is why this feature is disabled by default.
Use the escape sequence \e[3J instead for flushing the buffer.

This new callback is in preparation for persistent scrollback buffer
support for VGA consoles.
With a single scrollback buffer for all consoles, we could flush the
buffer just by invocating consw->con_switch(). But when each VGA console
has its own scrollback buffer, we need a new callback to tell the
video console driver which buffer to flush.

fbcon can deal with vc_hi_font_mask (the upper 256 chars) and adjust
the vc attrs dynamically when vc_hi_font_mask is changed at
fbcon_init(). When the vc_hi_font_mask is set, it remaps the attrs in
the existing console buffer with one bit shift up (for 9 bits), while
it remaps with one bit shift down (for 8 bits) when the value is
cleared. It works fine as long as the font gets updated after fbcon
was initialized.
However, we hit a bizarre problem when the console is switched to
another fb driver (typically from vesafb or efifb to drmfb). At
switching to the new fb driver, we temporarily rebind the console to
the dummy console, then rebind to the new driver. During the
switching, we leave the modified attrs as is. Thus, the new fbcon
takes over the old buffer as if it were to contain 8 bits chars
(although the attrs are still shifted for 9 bits), and effectively
this results in the yellow color texts instead of the original white
color, as found in the bugzilla entry below.
An easy fix for this is to re-adjust the attrs before leaving the
fbcon at con_deinit callback. Since the code to adjust the attrs is
already present in the current fbcon code, in this patch, we simply
factor out the relevant code, and call it from fbcon_deinit().

The code is mirrorred in scrolldelta implementations of both vgacon

perform a common cleanup and further changes.
While we are moving the code, make it linear and save one indentation
level. This is done by returning from the "!lines" then-branch
immediatelly. This allows flushing the else-branch 1 level to the
left, obviously.
Few more new lines and comments were added too.

Scrolling helpers scrup and scrdown both accept 'top' and 'bottom' as
unsigned int. Number of lines 'nr' is accepted as int, but all callers
pass down unsigned too. So change the type of 'nr' to unsigned too.
Now, promote unsigned int from the helpers up to the con_scroll
hook which actually accepted all those as signed int.
Next, the 'dir' parameter can have only two values and we define
constants for that: SM_UP and SM_DOWN. Switch them to enum and do
proper type checking on 'dir' too.
Finally, document the behaviour of the hook.

Since commit 27a4c827c3
fbcon: use the cursor blink interval provided by vt
two attempts have been made at fixing a possible hang caused by
cursor_timer_handler. That function registers a timer to be triggered at
"jiffies + fbcon_ops.cur_blink_jiffies".
A new case had been encountered during initialisation of clcd-pl11x:
fbcon_fb_registered
do_fbcon_takeover
-> do_register_con_driver
fbcon_startup
(A) add_cursor_timer (with cur_blink_jiffies = 0)
-> do_bind_con_driver
visual_init
fbcon_init
(B) cur_blink_jiffies = msecs_to_jiffies(vc->vc_cur_blink_ms);
If we take an softirq anywhere between A and B (and we do),
cursor_timer_handler executes indefinitely.
Instead of patching all possible paths that lead to this case one at a
time, fix the issue at the source and initialise cur_blink_jiffies to
200ms when allocating fbcon_ops. This was its default value before
aforesaid commit. fbcon_cursor or fbcon_init will refine this value
downstream.

Architectures which support VGA console must define screen_info
structurture from "uapi/linux/screen_info.h". Otherwise undefined
symbol error occurs. Usually it's defined in "setup.c" for each
architecture.
If an architecture does not support VGA console (ARC's case) there are 2
ways: define a dummy instance of screen_info or add a negative
dependency for VGA_CONSOLE in to prevent selecting this option.
I've implemented the second way. However the best solution is to add
HAVE_VGA_CONSOLE option for targets which support VGA console. Then
turn off VGA_CONSOLE by default and add dependency to HAVE_VGA_CONSOLE.
But right now it's better to just add a negative dependency for ARC and
then consider how to collaborate about this issue with maintainers of
other architectures.

Commit 27a4c827c3 ("fbcon: use the cursor blink interval provided by
vt") unconditionally removes the cursor blink timer. Unfortunately that
wreaks havoc under some circumstances. An easily reproducible way is to
use both the framebuffer console and a debug serial port as the console
output for kernel messages (e.g. "console=ttyS0 console=tty1" on the
kernel command-line. Upon boot this triggers a warning from within the
del_timer_sync() function because it is called from IRQ context:

Since strsep is used to tokenize the options string, after each option
match the code should use "continue" to get the next token from strsep.
This patch applies this pattern consistently.
Previously, for "scrollback:" and "map:" the parse code would return
(unconditionally: strsep ensures *options != ','), causing any
following option to be ignored, while for "vc:" the parse code would
go on to parse further options within the same token, which could lead
to invalid input being accepted.

The framebuffer code uses the current background color to fill the border
when switching consoles, however, this results in inconsistent behavior.
For example:
- start Midnigh Commander
- the border is black
- switch to another console and switch back
- the border is cyan
- type something into the command line in mc
- the border is cyan
- switch to another console and switch back
- the border is black
- press F9 to go to menu
- the border is black
- switch to another console and switch back
- the border is dark blue
When switching to a console with Midnight Commander, the border is random
color that was left selected by the slang subsystem.
This patch fixes this inconsistency by always using black as the
background color when switching consoles.

Touching the VGA resources on an IVB EFI machine causes hard hangs when

Apparently this also prevents unclaimed register errors on hsw and
hard machine hangs on my i855gm when trying to unbind fbcon.
Also, we want this to make I915_FBDEV=n safe.
v2: Rebase and pimp commit message.
v3: We also need to unregister the vga console, otherwise the unbind
of the fb console before module unload might resurrect it again.
v4: Ignore errors when the vga console is already unregistered - this
can happen when e.g. reloading i915.ko.

The vc_data.vc_uni_pagedir filed is currently long int, supposedly to
be served generically. This, however, leads to lots of cast to
pointer, and rather it worsens the readability significantly.
Actually, we have now only a single uni_pagedir map implementation,
and this won't change likely. So, it'd be much more simple and
error-prone to just use the exact pointer for struct uni_pagedir
instead of long.
Ditto for vc_uni_pagedir_loc. It's a pointer to the uni_pagedir, thus
it can be changed similarly to the exact type.

The vgacon driver prepares a two element array of uni_pagedir_loc and
uses the second item as its own reference counter for sharing the
uni_pagedir. And the code assumes blindly that the second item is
available if the assigned vc_uni_pagedir isn't the standard one, which
might be wrong (although currently it's so).
This patch fixes that wrong assumption, and gives a slight cleanup
along with it: namely, instead of array, just give the uni_pagedir_loc
and a separate refcount variable. It makes the code a bit more
understandable at first glance.

When FB_EVENT_FB_UNBIND is sent, fbcon has two paths, one path taken
when there is another frame buffer to switch any affected vcs to and
another path when there isn't.
In the case where there is another frame buffer to use,
fbcon_fb_unbind calls set_con2fb_map to remap all of the affected vcs
to the replacement frame buffer. set_con2fb_map will eventually call
con2fb_release_oldinfo when the last vcs gets unmapped from the old
frame buffer.
con2fb_release_oldinfo frees the fbcon data that is hooked off of the
fb_info structure, including the cursor timer.
In the case where there isn't another frame buffer to use,
fbcon_fb_unbind simply calls fbcon_unbind, which doesn't clear the
con2fb_map or free the fbcon data hooked from the fb_info
structure. In particular, it doesn't stop the cursor blink timer. When
the fb_info structure is then freed, we end up with a timer queue
pointing into freed memory and "bad things" start happening.
This patch first changes con2fb_release_oldinfo so that it can take a
NULL pointer for the new frame buffer, but still does all of the
deallocation and cursor timer cleanup.
Finally, the patch tries to replicate some of what set_con2fb_map does
by clearing the con2fb_map for the affected vcs and calling the
modified con2fb_release_info function to clean up the fb_info structure.

STI text console (sticon) was broken on 64bit machines with more than
4GB RAM and this lead in some cases to a kernel crash.
Since sticon uses the 32bit STI API it needs to keep pointers to memory
below 4GB. But on a 64bit kernel some memory regions (e.g. the kernel
stack) might be above 4GB which then may crash the kernel in the STI
functions.
Additionally sticon didn't selected the built-in framebuffer fonts by
default. This is now fixed.
On a side-note: Theoretically we could enhance the sticon driver to
use the 64bit STI API. But - beside the fact that some machines don't
provide a 64bit STI ROM - this would just add complexity.

fbdev provides framebuffer hotplugging, hence, we need to allow fbcon to
unbind from framebuffers. Unfortunately, fbcon_fb_unbind() cannot unbind
from the last framebuffer, unless console-unbinding is supported.
Fixing fbcon_unbind() to return 0 caused some horrible NULL-derefs in the
VT layer and I couldn't figure out why. Hence, lets just require
console-unbinding so fbdev hotplugging works with fbcon.

Pull drm updates from Dave Airlie:
"Okay this is the big one, I was stalled on the fbdev pull req as I
stupidly let fbdev guys merge a patch I required to fix a warning with
some patches I had, they ended up merging the patch from the wrong
place, but the warning should be fixed. In future I'll just take the
patch myself!
Outside drm:
There are some snd changes for the HDMI audio interactions on haswell,
they've been acked for inclusion via my tree. This relies on the
wound/wait tree from Ingo which is already merged.
Major changes:
AMD finally released the dynamic power management code for all their
GPUs from r600->present day, this is great, off by default for now but
also a huge amount of code, in fact it is most of this pull request.
Since it landed there has been a lot of community testing and Alex has
sent a lot of fixes for any bugs found so far. I suspect radeon might
now be the biggest kernel driver ever :-P p.s. radeon.dpm=1 to enable
dynamic powermanagement for anyone.
New drivers:
Renesas r-car display unit.
Other highlights:
- core: GEM CMA prime support, use new w/w mutexs for TTM
reservations, cursor hotspot, doc updates
- dvo chips: chrontel 7010B support
- i915: Haswell (fbc, ips, vecs, watermarks, audio powerwell),
Valleyview (enabled by default, rc6), lots of pll reworking, 30bpp
support (this time for sure)
- nouveau: async buffer object deletion, context/register init
updates, kernel vp2 engine support, GF117 support, GK110 accel
support (with external nvidia ucode), context cleanups.
- exynos: memory leak fixes, Add S3C64XX SoC series support, device
tree updates, common clock framework support,
- qxl: cursor hotspot support, multi-monitor support, suspend/resume
support
- mgag200: hw cursor support, g200 mode limiting
- shmobile: prime support
- tegra: fixes mostly
I've been banging on this quite a lot due to the size of it, and it
seems to okay on everything I've tested it on."

Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo:
"Surprisingly, Lai and I didn't break too many things implementing
custom pools and stuff last time around and there aren't any follow-up
changes necessary at this point.
The only change in this pull request is Viresh's patches to make some
per-cpu workqueues to behave as unbound workqueues dependent on a boot
param whose default can be configured via a config option. This leads
to higher processing overhead / lower bandwidth as more work items are
bounced across CPUs; however, it can lead to noticeable powersave in
certain configurations - ~10% w/ idlish constant workload on a
big.LITTLE configuration according to Viresh.
This is because per-cpu workqueues interfere with how the scheduler
perceives whether or not each CPU is idle by forcing pinned tasks on
them, which makes the scheduler's power-aware scheduling decisions
less effective.
Its effectiveness is likely less pronounced on homogenous
configurations and this type of optimization can probably be made
automatic; however, the changes are pretty minimal and the affected
workqueues are clearly marked, so it's an easy gain for some
configurations for the time being with pretty unintrusive changes."

The current Makefile rules to build font support are messy and buggy.
Replace them by Kconfig rules:
- Introduce CONFIG_FONT_SUPPORT, which controls the building of all font
code,
- Select CONFIG_FONT_SUPPORT for all drivers that use fonts,
- Select CONFIG_FONT_8x16 for all drivers that default to the VGA8x16
font,
- Drop the bogus console dependency for CONFIG_VIDEO_VIVI,
- Always process drivers/video/console/Makefile, as some drivers need
fonts even if CONFIG_VT is not set.
