2005-09-09[PATCH] nvidiafb: Use CVT to get mode for digital displaysAntonino A. Daplas
If no EDID block is probed, if the display is digital and if no mode option is specified by the user, get the timings by CVT instead of using the global mode database.

2005-09-09[PATCH] fbdev: Add VESA Coordinated Video Timings (CVT) supportAntonino A. Daplas
The Coordinated Video Timings (CVT) is the latest standard approved by VESA concerning video timings generation. It addresses the limitation of GTF which is designed mainly for CRT displays. CRT's have a high blanking requirement (as much as 25% of the horizontal frame length) which artificially increases the pixelclock. Digital displays, on the other hand, needs to conserve the pixelclock as much as possible. The GTF also does not take into account the different aspect ratios in its calculation. The new function added is fb_find_mode_cvt(). It is called by fb_find_mode() if it recognizes a mode option string formatted for CVT. The format is: <xres>x<yres>[M][R][-<bpp>][<at-sign><refresh>][i][m] The 'M' tells the function to calculate using CVT. On it's own, it will compute a timing for CRT displays at 60Hz. If the 'R' is specified, 'reduced blanking' computation will be used, best for flatpanels. The 'i' and the 'm' is for 'interlaced mode' and 'with margins' respectively. To determine if CVT was used, check for dmesg for something like this: CVT Mode - <pix>M<n>[-R], ie: .480M3-R (800x600 reduced blanking) where: pix - product of xres and yres, in MB M - is a CVT mode n - the aspect ratio (3 - 4:3; 4 - 5:4; 9 - 16:9, 15:9; A - 16:10) -R - reduced blanking Signed-off-by: Antonino Daplas <adaplas@pol.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-09-09[PATCH] radeonfb: Only request resources we needDaniel Burcaw
This patch changes radeon to request only resources 0 and 2 instead of all 3. This works around problems with some setups where BAR 1 (IO BAR) has not been assigned by the firmware since it's not used on the machine and the kernel fails to assign something to it due to the card being between a P2P bridge that was configured without an IO range at all.

2005-09-09[PATCH] framebuffer: bit_putcs() optimization for 8x* fontsKnut Petersen
This trivial patch gives a performance boost to the framebuffer console Constructing the bitmaps that are given to the bitblit functions of the framebuffer drivers is time consuming. Here we avoide a call to the slow fb_pad_aligned_buffer(). The patch replaces that call with a simple but much more efficient bytewise copy. The kernel spends a significant time at this place if you use 8x* fonts. Every pixel displayed on your screen is prepared here. Some benchmark results: Displaying a file of 2000 lines with 160 characters each takes 889 ms system time using cyblafb on my system (I´m using a 1280x1024 video mode, resulting in a 160x64 character console) Displaying the same file with the enclosed patch applied to 2.6.13 only takes 760 ms system time, saving 129 ms or 14.5%. Font widths other than 8 are not affected. The advantage and correctness of this patch should be obvious.

2005-09-09[PATCH] framebuffer: new driver for cyberblade/i1 graphics coreKnut Petersen
This is a framebuffer driver for the Cyberblade/i1 graphics core. Currently tridenfb claims to support the cyberblade/i1 graphics core. This is of very limited truth. Even vesafb is faster and provides more working modes and a much better quality of the video signal. There is a great number of bugs in tridentfb ... but most often it is impossible to decide if these bugs are real bugs or if fixing them for the cyberblade/i1 core would break support for one of the other supported chips. Tridentfb seems to be unmaintained,and documentation for most of the supported chips is not available. So "fixing" cyberblade/i1 support inside of tridentfb was not an option, it would have caused numerous if(CYBERBLADEi1) else ... cases and would have rendered the code to be almost unmaintainable. A first version of this driver was published on 2005-07-31. A fix for a bug reported by Jochen Hein was integrated as well as some changes requested by Antonino A. Daplas. A message has been added to tridentfb to inform current users of tridentfb to switch to cyblafb if the cyberblade/i1 graphics core is detected. This patch is one logical change, but because of the included documentation it is bigger than 70kb. Therefore it is not sent to lkml and linux-fbdev-devel, Signed-off-by: Knut Petersen <Knut_Petersen@t-online.de> Cc: Muli Ben-Yehuda <mulix@mulix.org> Acked-by: Antonino Daplas <adaplas@pol.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-09-09[PATCH] matroxfb: read MGA PInS data on PowerPCIan Romanick
This updates the matroxfb code so that it can find the PInS data embedded in the BIOS on PowerPC cards. The process for finding the data is different on OpenFirmware cards than on x86 cards, and the code for doing so was missing. After patching, building, installing, and booting a kernel, you should grep for "PInS" in /var/log/messages. You should see two messages in the log: PInS data found at offset XXXXX PInS memtype = X On the GXT135p card I get "31168" and "5". The first value is irrelevant, but it's presence lets me know that the PInS data was actually found. On a GXT130p, the second value should be 3. Since I don't have access to that hardware, if someone can verify that, I will submit a follow-on patch that rips out all the memtype parameter stuff.

2005-09-09[PATCH] vga text console and stty cols/rowsSamuel Thibault
Some people use 66-cells braille devices for reading the console, and hence would like to reduce the width of the screen by using: stty cols 66 However, the vga text console doesn't behave correctly: the 14 first characters of the second line are put on the right of the first line and so forth. Here is a patch to correct that. It corrects the disp_end and offset registers of the vga board on console resize and console switch. On usual screens, you then correctly get a right and/or bottom blank margin. On some laptop panels, the output is resized so that text actually gets magnified, which can be great for some people (see http://dept-info.labri.fr/~thibault/ls.jpg ).

2005-09-07[PATCH] w100fb: Rewrite for platform independenceRichard Purdie
The code w100fb was based on was horribly Sharp SL-C7x0 specific and there was little else that could be done as I had no access to anything else with a w100 in it. There is no real documentation about this chipset available. Ian Molton has access to other platforms with the w100 (Toshiba e-series) and so between us, we've improved w100fb and made it platform independent. Ian Molton also added support for the very similar w3220 and w3200 chipsets. There are a lot of changes here and it nearly amounts to a rewrite of the driver but it has been extensively tested and is being used in preference to the original driver in the Zaurus community. I'd therefore like to update the mainline code to reflect this.

2005-09-05[PATCH] I2C: Kill i2c_algorithm.id (6/7)Jean Delvare
In theory, there should be no more users of I2C_ALGO_* at this point. However, it happens that several drivers were using I2C_ALGO_* for adapter ids, so we need to correct these before we can get rid of all the I2C_ALGO_* definitions. Note that this also fixes a bug in media/video/tvaudio.c: /* don't attach on saa7146 based cards, because dedicated drivers are used */ if ((adap->id & I2C_ALGO_SAA7146)) return 0; This test was plain broken, as it would succeed for many more adapters than just the saa7146: any those id would share at least one bit with the saa7146 id.

Reported by: Pavel Kysilka (Bugzilla Bug 5059) The intelfb driver does not keep resolution set with fbset after switching to anot console and back. Steps to reproduce: initial options: tty1,tty2 - 1024x768-60 1) tty1 - fbset after booting (1024x768-60) 2) tty1 - fbset 800x600-100 tty1: 800x600-100 3) swith to tty2, swith to tty1 tty1: 1024x768-60 (the same resolution as default from kernel booting) This bug is caused by intelfb unintentionally destroying info->flags in set_par(). Therefore the flag, FBINFO_MISC_USEREVENT used to notify fbcon of a mode change was cleared causing the above problem. This bug though is not intelfb specific, as other drivers may also be affected. The fix is to save info->flags in a local variable before calling any of the driver hooks. A more definitive fix (for post 2.6.13) is to separate info->flags into one that is set by the driver and another that is set by core fbdev/fbcon.

>> vesafb: mode is 800x600x16, linelength=1600, pages=16 >> vesafb: scrolling: redraw >> vesafb: Truecolor: size=0:5:6:5, shift=0:11:5:0 >> mtrr: type mismatch for fc000000,1000000 old: write-back new: write- >> combining Range is already set to write-back, vesafb attempts to add a write-combining mtrr (default for vesafb). >> mtrr: size and base must be multiples of 4 kiB This is a bug, vesafb attempts to add a size < PAGE_SIZE triggering the messages below. To eliminate the warning messages, you can add the option mtrr:2 to add a write-back mtrr for vesafb. Or just use nomtrr option. 1. Fix algorithm for finding the best power of 2 size with mtrr_add(). 2. Add option to choose the mtrr type by extending the mtrr boot option: mtrr:n where n 0 = no mtrr (equivalent to using the nomtrr option) 1 = uncachable 2 = write back 3 = write combining (default) 4 = write through Signed-off-by: Antonino Daplas <adaplas@pol.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-07-27[PATCH] clean up inline static vs static inlineJesper Juhl
`gcc -W' likes to complain if the static keyword is not at the beginning of the declaration. This patch fixes all remaining occurrences of "inline static" up with "static inline" in the entire kernel tree (140 occurrences in 47 files). While making this change I came across a few lines with trailing whitespace that I also fixed up, I have also added or removed a blank line or two here and there, but there are no functional changes in the patch.

2005-07-27[PATCH] fbdev: update info->cmap when setting cmap from user-/kernelspace.Michal Januszewski
The fb_info struct, as defined in include/linux/fb.h, contains an element that is supposed to hold the current color map: struct fb_cmap cmap; /* Current cmap */ This cmap is currently never updated when either fb_set_cmap() or fb_set_user_cmap() are called. As a result, info->cmap contains the default cmap that was set by a device driver/fbcon and a userspace application using the FBIOGETCMAP ioctl will not always get the *currently* used color map. The patch fixes this by making sure the cmap is copied to info->cmap after it is set correctly. It moves most of the code that is responsible for setting the cmap to fb_set_cmap() and out of fb_set_user_cmap() to avoid code-duplication.

2005-07-27[PATCH] fbcon: don't repaint the cursor when it is disabled.Michal Januszewski
Currently even when the cursor is disabled (`setterm -cursor off`), it is still repainted as a black rectangle the size of a single char. This can be seen, for example, by chvt'ing to a free tty, disabling the cursor and doing `dd if=3D/dev/urandom of=3D/dev/fb0`. The patch changes this behaviour by avoiding painting anything when the cursor is disabled.

2005-07-27[PATCH] fbdev: colormap fixesJon Smirl
Color maps have up to 256 entries. 4096/256 allows for 16 characters per line. The format for a cmap entry is "%02x%c%4x%4x%4x\n" %02x entry %c transp %4x red %4x blue %4x green You can read the color_map with cat fb0/color_map.
