vgacon: clean up global screen_info instances

2023-10-17T08:17:02+00:00

To prepare for completely separating the VGA console screen_info from the one used in EFI/sysfb, rename the vgacon instances and make them local as much as possible. ia64 and arm both have confurations with vgacon and efi, but the contents never overlaps because ia64 has no EFI framebuffer, and arm only has vga console on legacy platforms without EFI. Renaming these is required before the EFI screen_info can be moved into drivers/firmware. The ia64 vga console is actually registered in two places from setup_arch(), but one of them is wrong, so drop the one in pcdp.c and fix the one in setup.c to use the correct conditional. x86 has to keep them together, as the boot protocol is used to switch between VGA text console and framebuffer through the screen_info data.

treewide: Convert macro and uses of section(foo) to section("foo")

2020-10-25T21:51:49+00:00

Use a more generic form for __section that requires quotes to avoid complications with clang and gcc differences. Remove the quote operator # from compiler_attributes.h __section macro. Convert all unquoted __section(foo) uses to quoted __section("foo"). Also convert __attribute__((section("foo"))) uses to __section("foo") even if the __attribute__ has multiple list entry forms.

docs: arm: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rst

2019-07-15T12:20:24+00:00

Converts ARM the text files to ReST, preparing them to be an architecture book. The conversion is actually: - add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs; - fix tables markups; - add some lists markups; - mark literal blocks; - adjust title markups. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.
