drm: fix up fbdev Kconfig defaults

2023-09-18T08:52:55+00:00

As a result of the recent Kconfig reworks, the default settings for the framebuffer interfaces changed in unexpected ways: Configurations that leave CONFIG_FB disabled but use DRM now get DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION by default. This also turns on the deprecated /dev/fb device nodes for machines that don't actually want it. In turn, configurations that previously had DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION enabled now only get the /dev/fb front-end but not the more useful framebuffer console, which is not selected any more. We had previously decided that any combination of the three frontends (FB_DEVICE, FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE and LOGO) should be selectable, but the new default settings mean that a lot of defconfig files would have to get adapted. Change the defaults back to what they were in Linux 6.5: - Leave DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION turned off unless CONFIG_FB is enabled. Previously this was a hard dependency but now the two are independent. However, configurations that enable CONFIG_FB probably also want to keep the emulation for DRM, while those without FB presumably did that intentionally in the past. - Leave FB_DEVICE turned off for FB=n. Following the same logic, the deprecated option should not automatically get enabled here, most users that had FB turned off in the past do not want it, even if they want the console - Turn the FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE option on if DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION is set to avoid having to change defconfig files that relied on it being selected unconditionally in the past. This also makes sense since both LOGO and FB_DEVICE are now disabled by default for builds without CONFIG_FB, but DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION would make no sense if all three are disabled.

fbdev: Split frame buffer support in FB and FB_CORE symbols

2023-07-22T10:25:04+00:00

Currently the CONFIG_FB option has to be enabled even if no legacy fbdev drivers are needed (e.g: only to have support for framebuffer consoles). The DRM subsystem has a fbdev emulation layer, but depends on CONFIG_FB and so it can only be enabled if that dependency is enabled as well. That means fbdev drivers have to be explicitly disabled if users want to enable CONFIG_FB, only to use fbcon and/or the DRM fbdev emulation layer. This patch introduces a non-visible CONFIG_FB_CORE symbol that could be enabled just to have core support needed for CONFIG_DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION, allowing CONFIG_FB to be disabled (and automatically disabling all the fbdev drivers). Nothing from fb_backlight.o and fbmon.o is used by the DRM fbdev emulation layer so these two objects can be compiled out when CONFIG_FB is disabled.

sticon: make sticon_set_def_font() void and remove op parameter

There are many places c->vc_cell_height is used in the code of vgacon_cursor(). Caching the value to a local variable makes the code much easier to follow.

video: Move HP PARISC STI core code to shared location

2023-04-20T08:04:51+00:00

STI core files have been located in console and fbdev code. Move the source code and header to the directories for video helpers. Also update the config and build rules such that the code depends on the config symbol CONFIG_STI_CORE, which STI console and STI framebuffer select automatically. Cleans up the console makefile and prepares PARISC to implement fb_is_primary_device() within the arch/ directory. No functional changes.
