fbdev: kyro: Use devm_ioremap_wc() for screen mem

2025-07-27T17:56:51+00:00

Replace the manual pci_ioremap_wc() call for mapping screen memory with the device-managed devm_ioremap_wc() variant. This simplifies the driver's resource management by ensuring the memory is automatically unmapped when the driver detaches from the device.

fbdev: kyro: Use devm_ioremap() for mmio registers

2025-07-27T17:56:51+00:00

Replace the manual ioremap() call for the MMIO registers with the device-managed devm_ioremap() variant. This simplifies the driver's resource management by ensuring the memory is automatically unmapped when the driver detaches from the device.

fbdev: kyro: Add missing PCI memory region request

2025-07-27T17:56:51+00:00

The kyro framebuffer driver did not request its PCI memory regions, which could lead to conflicts with other drivers. This change addresses the task "Request memory regions in all fbdev drivers" from the file Documentation/gpu/todo.rst. This is addressed by using the managed device functions pcim_enable_device() and pcim_request_all_regions(). This simplifies the code by making error handling and driver removal cleanup automatic for these resources. Signed-off-by: Giovanni Di Santi Signed-off-by: Helge Deller

fbdev/kyro: Use fbdev I/O helpers

2023-08-04T13:54:36+00:00

Set struct fb_ops and with FB_DEFAULT_IOMEM_OPS, fbdev's initializer for I/O memory. Sets the callbacks to the cfb_ and fb_io_ functions. Select the correct modules with Kconfig's FB_IOMEM_HELPERS token. The macro and token set the currently selected values, so there is no functional change. v3: * use _IOMEM_ in commit message v2: * updated to use _IOMEM_ tokens Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann Reviewed-by: Sam Ravnborg Acked-by: Helge Deller Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20230803184034.6456-22-tzimmermann@suse.de

fbdev: Remove FBINFO_DEFAULT from framebuffer_alloc()'ed structs

2023-07-24T14:50:38+00:00

The flag FBINFO_DEFAULT is 0 and has no effect, as struct fbinfo.flags has been allocated to zero by framebuffer_alloc(). So do not set it. Flags should signal differences from the default values. After cleaning up all occurrences of FBINFO_DEFAULT, the token will be removed. v4: * clarify commit message (Geert, Dan) v2: * fix commit message (Miguel) Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann Acked-by: Sam Ravnborg Cc: Helge Deller Cc: Nicolas Ferre Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt Cc: Ferenc Bakonyi Cc: "K.

fbdev: kyro: make some const read-only arrays static and reduce type size

2023-07-20T05:52:54+00:00

Don't populate the const read-only arrays on the stack but instead make them static const. Use smaller types to use less storage for the arrays. Also makes the object code a little smaller. Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King Signed-off-by: Helge Deller

fbdev: Rename fb_mem*() helpers

2023-05-18T09:07:54+00:00

Update the names of the fb_mem*() helpers to be consistent with their regular counterparts. Hence, fb_memset() now becomes fb_memset_io(), fb_memcpy_fromfb() now becomes fb_memcpy_fromio() and fb_memcpy_tofb() becomes fb_memcpy_toio(). No functional changes. v6: * update new file fb_io_fops.c Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann Reviewed-by: Arnd Bergmann Reviewed-by: Sam Ravnborg Reviewed-by: Sui Jingfeng Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20230512102444.5438-8-tzimmermann@suse.de

fbdev: Add support for the nomodeset kernel parameter

2022-11-16T12:26:25+00:00

Support the kernel's nomodeset parameter for all PCI-based fbdev drivers that use aperture helpers to remove other, hardware-agnostic graphics drivers. The parameter is a simple way of using the firmware-provided scanout buffer if the hardware's native driver is broken. The same effect could be achieved with per-driver options, but the importance of the graphics output for many users makes a single, unified approach worthwhile. With nomodeset specified, the fbdev driver module will not load. This unifies behavior with similar DRM drivers. In DRM helpers, modules first check the nomodeset parameter before registering the PCI driver. As fbdev has no such module helpers, we have to modify each driver individually. The name 'nomodeset' is slightly misleading, but has been chosen for historical reasons. Several drivers implemented it before it became a general option for DRM. So keeping the existing name was preferred over introducing a new one. v2: * print a warning if a driver does not init (Helge) * wrap video_firmware_drivers_only() in helper Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann Reviewed-by: Javier Martinez Canillas Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20221111133024.9897-3-tzimmermann@suse.de
