drm: Implement DRM aperture helpers under video/

2022-06-27T09:07:55+00:00

Implement DRM's aperture helpers under video/ for sharing with other sub-systems. Remove DRM-isms from the interface. The helpers track the ownership of framebuffer apertures and provide hand-over from firmware, such as EFI and VESA, to native graphics drivers. Other subsystems, such as fbdev and vfio, also have to maintain ownership of framebuffer apertures. Moving DRM's aperture helpers to a more public location allows all subsystems to interact with each other and share a common implementation. The aperture helpers are selected by the various firmware drivers within DRM and fbdev, and the VGA text-console driver. The original DRM interface is kept in place for use by DRM drivers. v3: * prefix all interfaces with aperture_ (Javier) * rework and simplify documentation (Javier) * rename struct dev_aperture to struct aperture_range * rebase onto latest DRM * update MAINTAINERS entry Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann Reviewed-by: Javier Martinez Canillas Tested-by: Laszlo Ersek Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20220622140134.12763-3-tzimmermann@suse.de

nds32: Remove the architecture

2022-03-07T12:54:59+00:00

The nds32 architecture, also known as AndeStar V3, is a custom 32-bit RISC target designed by Andes Technologies. Support was added to the kernel in 2016 as the replacement RISC-V based V5 processors were already announced, and maintained by (current or former) Andes employees. As explained by Alan Kao, new customers are now all using RISC-V, and all known nds32 users are already on longterm stable kernels provided by Andes, with no development work going into mainline support any more. While the port is still in a reasonably good shape, it only gets worse over time without active maintainers, so it seems best to remove it before it becomes unusable. As always, if it turns out that there are mainline users after all, and they volunteer to maintain the port in the future, the removal can be reverted.

fbcon: Add option to enable legacy hardware acceleration

2022-02-02T14:16:26+00:00

Add a config option CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_LEGACY_ACCELERATION to enable bitblt and fillrect hardware acceleration in the framebuffer console. If disabled, such acceleration will not be used, even if it is supported by the graphics hardware driver. If you plan to use DRM as your main graphics output system, you should disable this option since it will prevent compiling in code which isn't used later on when DRM takes over. For all other configurations, e.g. if none of your graphic cards support DRM (yet), DRM isn't available for your architecture, or you can't be sure that the graphic card in the target system will support DRM, you most likely want to enable this option. In the non-accelerated case (e.g. when DRM is used), the inlined fb_scrollmode() function is hardcoded to return SCROLL_REDRAW and as such the compiler is able to optimize much unneccesary code away. In this v3 patch version I additionally changed the GETVYRES() and GETVXRES() macros to take a pointer to the fbcon_display struct. This fixes the build when console rotation is enabled and helps the compiler again to optimize out code.
