2009-01-16drm: initial KMS config fixesJesse Barnes
When mode setting is first initialized, the driver will call into drm_helper_initial_config() to set up an initial output and framebuffer configuration. This routine is responsible for probing the available connectors, encoders, and crtcs, looking for modes and putting together something reasonable (where reasonable is defined as "allows kernel messages to be visible on as many displays as possible"). However, the code was a bit too aggressive in setting default modes when none were found on a given connector. Even if some connectors had modes, any connectors found lacking modes would have the default 800x600 mode added to their mode list, which in some cases could cause problems later down the line. In my case, the LVDS was perfectly available, but the initial config code added 800x600 modes to both of the detected but unavailable HDMI connectors (which are on my non-existent docking station). This ended up preventing later code from setting a mode on my LVDS, which is bad. This patch fixes that behavior by making the initial config code walk through the connectors first, counting the available modes, before it decides to add any default modes to a possibly connected output. It also fixes the logic in drm_target_preferred() that was causing zeroed out modes to be set as the preferred mode for a given connector, even if no modes were available.

2008-12-29drm: drop DRM_IOCTL_MODE_REPLACEFB, add+remove works just as well.Kristian H�gsberg
The replace fb ioctl replaces the backing buffer object for a modesetting framebuffer object. This can be acheived by just creating a new framebuffer backed by the new buffer object, setting that for the crtcs in question and then removing the old framebuffer object.

2008-12-29drm: sanitise drm modesetting API + remove unused hotplugJakob Bornecrantz
The initially merged modesetting API has some uglies in it, this cleans up the struct members and ioctl ordering for initial submission. It also removes the unneeded hotplug infrastructure. airlied:- I've pulled this patch in from git modesetting-gem tree. Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>
2008-12-29DRM: add mode setting supportDave Airlie
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.
