At the moment about half of the framebuffer drivers can return an error
code in fb_set_par. Until now it would be silently ignored by fbmem.c
and fbcon.c. This patch fixes fbmem.c to return the error code and
restore var on error.
But it is not clear in which video mode the device is when fb_set_par
fails. It would be good and reasonable if it were in the old state but
there is no guarantee that this is true for all existing drivers.
Additionally print a message if a failing fb_set_par is detected in
fbmem.c or fbcon.c.
Although most errors should be caught by the previous fb_check_var some
errors can't as they are dynamic (memory allocations, ...) and can only be
detected while performing the operations which is forbidden in
fb_check_var.
This patch shouldn't have a negative impact on normal operation as all
drivers return 0 on success. The impact in case of error depends heavily
on the driver and caller but it's expected to be better than before.

Many years ago when this driver was written, it had a use, but these
days it's nothing but trouble and distributions should not enable it
in any situation.
Pretty much every console device a sparc machine could see has a
bonafide real driver, making the PROM console hack unnecessary.
If any new device shows up, we should write a driver instead of
depending upon this crutch to save us. We've been able to take care
of this even when no chip documentation exists (sunxvr500, sunxvr2500)
so there are no excuses.

Catalin and kmemleak spotted a leak of a VC screen buffer in
vc_allocate() due to the following chain of events:
vc_allocate()
visual_init(init=1)
vc->vc_sw->con_init(init=1)
fbcon_init()
vc_resize()
vc->screen_buf = kmalloc()
vc->screen_buf = kmalloc()
The common way for the VC drivers is to set the screen dimension
parameters manually in the init case and only call vc_resize() for
!init - which allocates a screen buffer according to the new
dimensions.
fbcon instead would do vc_resize() unconditionally and afterwards set
the dimensions manually (again) for !init - i.e. completely upside
down. The vc_resize() allocated buffer would then get lost by
vc_allocate() allocating a fresh one.
Use vc_resize() only for actual resizing to close the leak.
Set the dimensions manually only in initialization mode to remove the
redundant setting in resize mode.

Uwe Geuder noted that he gets random bitmaps on a text console if he tried
to type extended characters (like the e acute). For him everything above
unicode 0xa0 was corrupted.
After some digging there seems to be a little culprit in vgacon since the
beginning of ages (well git). The function vgacon_font_get will store the
number of characters correctly in font->charcount but then calls to
vgacon_do_font_op(..., 0, 0). Which means only the lower 256 characters
are actually stored to the fontdata. The rest is left untouched. So the
next time that saved data is used, the garbled font appears. This happens
on every switch between text consoles.

Add mode setting support to the DRM layer.
This is a fairly big chunk of work that allows DRM drivers to provide
full output control and configuration capabilities to userspace. It was
motivated by several factors:
- the fb layer's APIs aren't suited for anything but simple
configurations
- coordination between the fb layer, DRM layer, and various userspace
drivers is poor to non-existent (radeonfb excepted)
- user level mode setting drivers makes displaying panic & oops
messages more difficult
- suspend/resume of graphics state is possible in many more
configurations with kernel level support
This commit just adds the core DRM part of the mode setting APIs.
Driver specific commits using these new structure and APIs will follow.

Add a call to cancel_work_sync() in fbcon_exit() to cancel any pending
work in the fbcon workqueue.
The current implementation of fbcon_exit() sets the fbcon workqueue
function info->queue.func to NULL, but does not assure that there is no
work pending when it does so. On occasion, depending on system timing,
there will still be pending work in the queue when fbcon_exit() is
called. This results in a null pointer deference when run_workqueue()
tries to call the queue's work function.

The commit aef7db4bd5 fixed the problem with
recursive locking in fb blanking code if blank is caused by user setting
the /sys/class/graphics/fb*/blank. However this broke the fbcon timeout
blanking.
If you use a driver that defines ->fb_blank operation and at the same time
that driver relies on other driver (e.g. backlight or lcd class) to blank
the screen, when the fbcon times out and tries to blank the fb, it will
call only fb driver blanker and won't notify the other driver. Thus FB
output is disabled, but the screen isn't blanked.
Restore fbcon blanking and at the same time apply the proper fix for the
above problem: if fbcon_blank is called with FBINFO_FLAG_USEREVENT, we are
already called through notification from fb_blank, thus we don't have to
blank the fb again.

mdacon incorrectly detects MDA hardware on systems without such graphics card.
One may load this module by chance, for example when doing some systematical
module-testing, and if there is no Monochrome Display Adapter attached ,
module init renders vc1-16 completely unusable.
I and others have run into this more than once. see [Bug 224522 - modprobe
mdacon freezes machine -> https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=224522 ]
for example
Apparently proper MDA detection seems to be broken for a long time - seems to
be related to those #ifdef TEST_MDA_B statements added by Edward Betts.
this commit back in 2002 made things even worse :
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git;a=commit;h=c72757b49c88914433244757fb4967fc63546685
It changed default vc allocation from 13-16 to 1-16 for no apparent reason
(!?) , and with that (and without X), mdacon grabs the vc you`re currently
sitting on and locks you out.
this is from Kconfig :
>config MDA_CONSOLE
> depends on !M68K && !PARISC && ISA
> tristate "MDA text console (dual-headed) (EXPERIMENTAL)"
> ---help---
> Say Y here if you have an old MDA or monochrome Hercules graphics
> adapter in your system acting as a second head ( = video card). You
> will then be able to use two monitors with your Linux system. Do not
> say Y here if your MDA card is the primary card in your system; the
> normal VGA driver will handle it.
As we can see mdacon is just meant as an additional driver for dual-head
setup, and since kernel 2.4.36 still defaults to vc13-16 , setting the default
back to that value again shouldn`t do any harm.
Hereby i'm reverting that change, setting default back to to vc13-16 again.
Besides the fact that mdacon may be rarely or never be used these days and
could perhaps put to trash anyway (pre-dinosaur hardware!), indeed this is not
a real solution, but at least it removes the unfortunate side-effect of
messing up the vc you`re working on.

the previous one only (where "foo" appears). So just temporarily set the

A command that causes a line feed while a background color is active,
such as
perl -e 'print "x" x 60, "\e[44m", "x" x 40, "\e[0m\n"'
and
perl -e 'print "x" x 40, "\e[44m\n", "x" x 40, "\e[0m\n"'
causes the line that was started as a result of the line feed to be completely
filled with the currently active background color instead of the default
color.
When scrolling, part of the current screen is memcpy'd/memmove'd to the new
region, and the new line(s) that will appear as a result are cleared using
memset. However, the lines are cleared with vc->vc_video_erase_char, causing
them to be colored with the currently active background color. This is
different from X11 terminal emulators which always paint the new lines with
the default background color (e.g. `xterm -bg black`).
The clear operation (\e[1J and \e[2J) also use vc_video_erase_char, so a new
vc->vc_scrl_erase_char is introduced with contains the erase character used
for scrolling, which is built from vc->vc_def_color instead of vc->vc_color.

The current attr_fgcol_ec / attr_bgcol_ec macros do a simple shift of bits
to get the color from vc_video_erase_char. For a monochrome display
however the attribute does not contain any color, only attribute bits.
Furthermore the reverse bit is lost because it is shifted out, the
resulting color is always 0.
This can bee seen on a monochrome console either directly or by setting it
to inverse mode via "setterm -inversescreen on" . Text is written with
correct color, fb_fillrects from a bit_clear / bit_clear_margins will get

As reported in Bugzilla Bug 9093, upon switching to X, a small rectangular
cursor can still be seen blinking in the upper left part of the screen. It is
fbcon's text cursor. This is caused by a strange ioctl(..., KDSETMODE,
KD_TEXT) call done by something in userspace, perhaps by X itself, while the
tty is still in graphics mode. And when the tty is in KD_TEXT mode, the
cursor timer is restarted.
Although this is a userspace problem, we can work around it by delaying the
restart of the cursor timer until an fbcon_switch() is called. In other
words, the cursor timer will not be restarted even if a KD_TEXT mode switch is
requested.

Various console drivers are able to resize the screen via the con_resize()
hook. This hook is also visible in userspace via the TIOCWINSZ, VT_RESIZE and
VT_RESIZEX ioctl's. One particular utility, SVGATextMode, expects that
con_resize() of the VGA console will always return success even if the
resulting screen is not compatible with the hardware. However, this
particular behavior of the VGA console, as reported in Kernel Bugzilla Bug
7513, can cause undefined behavior if the user starts with a console size
larger than 80x25.
To work around this problem, add an extra parameter to con_resize(). This
parameter is ignored by drivers except for vgacon. If this parameter is
non-zero, then the resize request came from a VT_RESIZE or VT_RESIZEX ioctl
and vgacon will always return success. If this parameter is zero, vgacon will
return -EINVAL if the requested size is not compatible with the hardware. The
latter is the more correct behavior.
With this change, SVGATextMode should still work correctly while in-kernel and
stty resize calls can expect correct behavior from vgacon.

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().

login and type:

type into an xterm:
while true; do echo "" > /dev/console; usleep 100000; done
while the above loop is running switch to the text console and back
again (Ctrl-Alt-F1 then Ctrl-Alt-F7)
... and the screen will be shifting (and wrapping) to the left.
This problem stems from continuously writing text to the system console (which
is in KD_TEXT mode) while the foreground console is in KD_GRAPHICS
mode. Somewhere along the way, console printing got confused and omitted the
KD_GRAPHICS/KD_TEXT test. Thus, vgacon attempted to scroll the screen of X,
which causes X to shift.
Fix by disallowing vgacon to touch the hardware when the vc is in KD_GRAPHICS
mode. A definitive fix entails a full audit of the console code.

driver that is mapped to it are both compiled statically. Currently, if fbcon
is loaded prior to the driver, the logo is not shown. Reverse the order, and
the code may attempt to draw the logo which is __initdata. By accident, this
bug is rarely seen because this method of loading the modules is not common
and secondly, a code in fb_prepare_logo() that checks the height of the logo
(now a random value) rarely succeeds.
Fix by drawing the logo only if both fbcon and the driver are statically
compiled.

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.
To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.
Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

Fix some possible unaligned accesses when accessing fields of 'image'
pointer. Indeed this pointer was obtained by allocating a block of memory
that embeds a temporary array plus an image structure. The temporary
buffer was located at the start of the allocated block and depending on its
size, the image structure which comes right after can be unaligned.
For example when using mini fonts (4x6) (cursor's width is 4 and its height
is 6) the temporary buf size is 6 bytes.
Therefore this patch moves the image structure to the start of the block
and moves the temporary buffer right after. It makes 'image' pointer
always aligned and since the tempo buf is a buffer of char, it's always
correctly aligned as well.
It also fixes the file header alignement.

Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.
The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.
Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.
This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
And put the old one back at the end:
set_irq_regs(old_regs);
Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
- update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
- profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
+ update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
+ profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
(*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
the input_dev struct.
(*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
pointer or not.
(*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
irq_handler_t.

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.

Add the ability to detach and attach the framebuffer console to and from the
vt layer. This is done by echo'ing any value to sysfs attributes located in
class/graphics/fbcon. The two attributes are:
attach - bind fbcon to the vt layer
detach - unbind fbcon from the vt layer
Once fbcon is detached from the vt layer, fbcon can be unloaded if compiled as
a module. This feature is quite useful for developers who work on the
framebuffer or console subsystem. This is also useful for users who want to
go to text mode or graphics mode without having to reboot.
Directly unloading the fbcon module is not possible because the vt layer
increments the module reference count for all bound consoles. Detaching fbcon
decrements the module reference count to zero so unloading becomes possible.
Detaching fbcon may interfere with X and/or DRM.

One of the limitations of the framebuffer console system is its inablity to
unload or detach itself from the console layer. And once it loads, it also
locks in framebuffer drivers preventing their unload. Although the con2fbmap
utility does provide a means to unload individual drivers, it requires that at
least one framebuffer driver is loaded for use by fbcon.
With this change, it is possible to detach fbcon from the console layer. If it
is detached, it will reattach the boot console driver (which is permanently
loaded) back to the console layer so the system can continue to work. As a
consequence, fbcon will also decrement its reference count of individual
framebuffer drivers, allowing all of these drivers to be unloaded even if
fbcon is still loaded.
Unless you use drivers that restores the display to text mode (rivafb and
i810fb, for example), detaching fbcon does require assistance from userspace
tools (ie, vbetools) for text mode to be restored completely. Without the
help of these tools, fbcon will leave the VGA console corrupted. The methods
that can be used will be described in Documentation/fb/fbcon.txt.
Because the vt layer also increments the module reference count for each
console driver, fbcon cannot be directly unloaded. It must be detached first
prior to unload.
Similarly, fbcon can be reattached to the console layer without having to
reload the module. A nice feature if fbcon is compiled statically.
Attaching and detaching fbcon is done via sysfs attributes. A class device
entry for fbcon is created in /sys/class/graphics. The two attributes that
controls this feature are detach and attach. Two other attributes that are
piggybacked under /sys/class/graphics/fb[n] that are fbcon-specific,
'con_rotate' and 'con_rotate_all' are moved to fbcon. They are renamed as
'rotate' and 'rotate_all' respectively.
Overall, this feature is a great help for developers working in the
framebuffer or console layer. There is not need to continually reboot the
kernel for every small change. It is also useful for regular users who wants
to choose between a graphical console or a text console without having to
reboot.
Example usage for x86:
/* start in text mode */
modprobe xxxfb
modprobe fbcon
/* graphical mode with fbcon using xxxfb */
echo 1 > /sys/class/graphics/fbcon/detach
/* back to text mode, will produce corrupt display unless vbetool is used */
rmmod xxxfb
modprobe yyyfb
/* back to graphical mode with fbcon using yyyfb */
Before trying out this feature, please read Documentation/fb/fbcon.txt.
This patch:
In order for fbcon to detach itself from the console layer, vgacon, which is a
boot console driver, must be fixed so it can retake the console multiple
times, not just during init. The following needs to be done:
- remove __init from the vgacon_startup, this is called again by
take_over_console().
- vc->rows and vc->cols are set manually by vgacon during init. After init,
vc_resize() can be used
- make sure the scrollback_buffer is not reallocated

VGA_MAP_MEM translates to ioremap() on some architectures. It makes sense
to do this to vga_vram_base, because we're going to access memory between
vga_vram_base and vga_vram_end.
But it doesn't really make sense to map starting at vga_vram_end, because
we aren't going to access memory starting there. On ia64, which always has
to be different, ioremapping vga_vram_end gives you something completely
incompatible with ioremapped vga_vram_start, so vga_vram_size ends up being
nonsense.
As a bonus, we often know the size up front, so we can use ioremap()
correctly, rather than giving it a zero size.

This patch contains the possible cleanups including the following:
- every file should #include the headers containing the prototypes for
it's global functions
- make needlessly global functions static
- kyro/STG4000Interface.h: #include video/kyro.h and linux/pci.h
instead of a manual "struct pci_dev"
- i810_main.{c,h}: prototypes for static functions belong to the
C file

updatescrollmode() must not select ywrap scrolling if
divides(vc->vc_font.height, yres) is not true as this is not supported by
the actual ywrap scrolling code.
The bug is triggered with e.g. mode 800x600, vxres 1024, vyres 8192, bpp
8, font dimensions 8x16, 8Mb video ram and FBINFO_HWACCEL_YWRAP set. If
those conditions are met, scrolling is broken and garbage is permanently
displayed at the bottom of the screen.
No regression, no possible side effects.
Definitely needed by cyblafb and probably needed by amifb.

Store struct display when setting all vc's. Otherwise, fbcon's behavior
becomes undefined, such as malpositioning of the cursor.

Do not pass the structure display since fbcon is already keeping the pointer
to the current display.
