* 'xen/fbdev' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen:
  xen pvfb: Inhibit VM_IO flag to be set on vmalloc-ed framebuffers.
  fb-defio: Inhibit VM_IO flag to be set on vmalloc-ed framebuffers.
  fb-defio: If FBINFO_VIRTFB is defined, do not set VM_IO flag.
  Fix toogle whether xenbus driver should be built as module or part of kernel.

Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 7164bb4393 fb-defio: If FBINFO_VIRTFB is defined, do not set VM_IO flag.
Most users (except sh_mobile_lcdcfb.c) get their framebuffer from
vmalloc. Setting VM_IO is not necessary as the memory obtained
from vmalloc is System RAM type and is not susceptible to PCI memory
constraints.

Krzysztof Helt f5c15d0b37 fb: remove fb_save_state() and fb_restore_state operations
Remove fb_save_state() and fb_restore_state operations from frame buffer layer.
They are used only in two drivers:
1. savagefb  - and cause bug #11248
2. uvesafb

Usage of these operations is misunderstood in both drivers so kill these
operations, fix the bug #11248 and avoid confusion in the future.

Tested on Savage 3D/MV card and the patch fixes the bug #11248.

The frame buffer layer uses these funtions during switch between graphics
and text mode of the console, but these drivers saves state before
switching of the frame buffer (in the fb_open) and after releasing it (in
the fb_release).  This defeats the purpose of these operations.

Krzysztof Helt 537a1bf059 fbdev: add mutex for fb_mmap locking
Add a mutex to avoid a circular locking problem between the mm layer
semaphore and fbdev ioctl mutex through the fb_mmap() call.

Also, add mutex to all places where smem_start and smem_len fields change
so the mutex inside the fb_mmap() is actually used.  Changing of these
fields before calling the framebuffer_register() are not mutexed.

This is 2.6.31 material.  It removes one lockdep (fb_mmap() and
register_framebuffer()) but there is still another one (fb_release() and
register_framebuffer()).  It also cleans up handling of the smem_start and
smem_len fields used by mutexed section of the fb_mmap().

Dave Airlie 4410f39109 fbdev: add support for handoff from firmware to hw framebuffers
With KMS we have ran into an issue where we really want the KMS fb driver
to be the one running the console, so panics etc can be shown by switching
out of X etc.

However with vesafb/efifb built-in, we end up with those on fb0 and the
KMS fb driver on fb1, driving the same piece of hw, so this adds an fb
info flag to denote a firmware fbdev, and adds a new aperture base/size
range which can be compared when the hw drivers are installed to see if
there is a conflict with a firmware driver, and if there is the firmware
driver is unregistered and the hw driver takes over.

It uses new aperture_base/size members instead of comparing on the fix
smem_start/length, as smem_start/length might for example only cover the
first 1MB of the PCI aperture, and we could allocate the kms fb from 8MB
into the aperture, thus they would never overlap.

Andrea Righi 1f5e31d7e5 fbmem: don't call copy_from/to_user() with mutex held
Avoid calling copy_from/to_user() with fb_info->lock mutex held in fbmem
ioctl().

fb_mmap() is called under mm->mmap_sem (A) held, that also acquires
fb_info->lock (B); fb_ioctl() takes fb_info->lock (B) and does
copy_from/to_user() that might acquire mm->mmap_sem (A), causing a
deadlock.

NOTE: it doesn't push down the fb_info->lock in each own driver's
fb_ioctl(), so there are still potential deadlocks elsewhere.

Jesse Barnes cfafca8067 fbdev: fbcon: console unregistration from unregister_framebuffer
This allows for proper console unregistration via the VT layer, and updates
the FB layer to use it.  This makes debugging new console drivers much easier,
since you can properly clean them up before unloading.

[adaplas]
unregister_framebuffer() is typically called as part of the driver's
module_exit(). Doing so otherwise will freeze the machine as the VT layer is
holding reference counts on fbcon, and fbcon on the driver.  With this change,
it allows unregister_framebuffer() to be called safely anywhere as needed.

Additions from the original:  If multiple drivers are used by fbcon, and if
one of them unregisters, a driver will take over the consoles vacated by the
outgoing one (via set_con2fb_map).   Once only the outgoing driver remains,
then fbcon will unbind from the VT layer (if CONFIG_HW_CONSOLE_UNBINDING is
set to y).

It is important that these drivers implement fb_open() and fb_release()
just to ensure that no other process is using the driver. Likewise, these
drivers _must_ check the return value of unregister_framebuffer().

fb_set_var() will query fbcon the requirement, then it will query the driver

cannot handle fbcon's requirement, then fb_set_var() will fail.

For example, if a particular driver supports 2 modes where:

mode1 = can only display 8x16 bitmaps
mode2 = can display any bitmap

then if current mode = mode2 and current font = 12x22

fbset <mode1> /* mode1 cannot handle 12x22 */

Paul Mundt 5e841b88d2 fb: fsync() method for deferred I/O flush.
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.

(akpm: nuke unneeded ifdefs, forward-delcare struct dentry)

Jaya Kumar 60b59beafb fbdev: mm: Deferred IO support
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().

Richard Purdie 37ce69a57f backlight: Rework backlight/fb interaction simplifying, lots
fb_info->bl_mutex is badly thought out and the backlight class doesn't
need it if the framebuffer/backlight register/unregister order is
consistent, particularly after the backlight locking fixes.

Fix the drivers to use the order:

backlight_device_register()
register_framebuffer()
unregister_framebuffer()
backlight_device_unregister()

and turn bl_mutex into a lock for the bl_curve data only.

Richard Purdie 994efacdf9 backlight/fbcon: Add FB_EVENT_CONBLANK
The backlight class wants notification whenever the console is blanked
but doesn't get this when hardware blanking fails and software blanking
is used. Changing FB_EVENT_BLANK to report both would be a behaviour
change which could confuse the console layer so add a new event for
software blanking and have the backlight class listen for both.

Antonino A. Daplas 256154fbc3 [PATCH] fbdev: statically link the framebuffer notification functions
The backlight and lcd subsystems can be notified by the framebuffer layer
of blanking events.  However, these subsystems, as a whole, can function
independently from the framebuffer layer.  But in order to enable to the
lcd and backlight subsystems, the framebuffer has to be compiled also,
effectively sucking in a huge amount of unneeded code.

To prevent dependency problems, separate out the framebuffer notification
mechanism from the framebuffer layer and permanently link it to the kernel.

Antonino A. Daplas e614b18dce [PATCH] VT binding: Update fbcon to support binding
The control for binding/unbinding is moved from fbcon to the console layer.
Thus the fbcon sysfs attributes, attach and detach, are also gone.

    1. Add a notifier event that tells fbcon if a framebuffer driver has been
       unregistered.  If no registered driver remains, fbcon will unregister
       itself from the console layer.

    2. Replaced calls to give_up_console() with unregister_con_driver().

    3. Still use take_over_console() instead of register_con_driver() to
       maintain compatibility

    4. Respect the parameter first_fb_vc and last_fb_vc instead of using 0 and
       MAX_NR_CONSOLES - 1. These parameters are settable by the user.

    5. When fbcon is completely unbound from the console layer, fbcon will
       also release (iow, decrement module reference counts to zero) all fbdev
       drivers. In other words, a bind or unbind request from the console layer
       will propagate down to the framebuffer drivers.

    6. If fbcon is not bound to the console, it will ignore all notifier
       events (except driver registration and unregistration) and all sysfs
       requests.

In order for this feature to work, an interface will be needed.  The most
appropriate is sysfs.  However, the framebuffer console has no sysfs entry
yet.  This will create a sysfs class device entry for fbcon under
/sys/class/graphics.

Add a class_device entry 'fbcon' under class 'graphics'.  Console-specific
attributes which where previously under class/graphics/fb[x] are moved to
class/graphics/fbcon.  These attributes, 'con_rotate' and 'con_rotate_all',
are also renamed to 'rotate' and 'rotate_all' respectively.
