Jesse's initial patch commit said:
"At panic time (i.e. when oops_in_progress is set) we should try a bit
harder to update the screen and make sure output gets to the VT, since
some drivers are capable of flipping back to it.
So make sure we try to unblank and update the display if called from a
panic context."
I've enhanced this to add a flag to the vc that console layer can set to
indicate they want this behaviour to occur. This also adds support to
fbcon for that flag and adds an fb flag for drivers to indicate they want
to use the support. It enables this for KMS drivers.

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Many new laptops now come with 2 gpus, one to be used for low power
modes and one for gaming/on-ac applications. These GPUs are typically
wired to the laptop panel and VGA ports via a multiplexer unit which
is controlled via ACPI methods.
4 combinations of systems typically exist - with 2 ACPI methods.
Intel/ATI - Lenovo W500/T500 - use ATPX ACPI method
ATI/ATI - some ASUS - use ATPX ACPI Method
Intel/Nvidia - - use _DSM ACPI method
Nvidia/Nvidia - - use _DSM ACPI method.
TODO:
This patch adds support for the ATPX method and initial bits
for the _DSM methods that need to written by someone with
access to the hardware.
Add a proper non-debugfs interface - need to get some proper
testing first.
v2: add power up/down support for both devices
on W500 puts i915/radeon into D3 and cuts power to radeon.
v3: redo probing methods, no DMI list, drm devices call to
register with switcheroo, it tries to find an ATPX method on
any device and once there is two devices + ATPX it inits the
switcher.
v4: ATPX msg handling using buffers - should work on more machines
v5: rearchitect after more mjg59 discussion - move ATPX handling to
radeon driver.
v6: add file headers + initial nouveau bits (to be filled out).
v7: merge delayed switcher code.
v8: avoid suspend/resume of gpu that is off
v9: rearchitect - mjg59 is always right. - move all ATPX code to
radeon, should allow simpler DSM also proper ATRM handling
v10: add ATRM support for radeon BIOS, add mutex to lock vgasr_priv
v11: fix bug in resuming Intel for 2nd time.
v12: start fixing up nvidia code blindly.
v13: blindly guess at finishing nvidia code
v14: remove radeon audio hacks - fix up intel resume more like upstream
v15: clean up printks + remove unnecessary igd/dis pointers
mount debugfs
/sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch - should exist if ATPX detected

Remove fb_save_state() and fb_restore_state operations from frame buffer layer.
They are used only in two drivers:
1. savagefb - and cause bug #11248
2. uvesafb
Usage of these operations is misunderstood in both drivers so kill these
operations, fix the bug #11248 and avoid confusion in the future.
Tested on Savage 3D/MV card and the patch fixes the bug #11248.
The frame buffer layer uses these funtions during switch between graphics
and text mode of the console, but these drivers saves state before
switching of the frame buffer (in the fb_open) and after releasing it (in
the fb_release). This defeats the purpose of these operations.

fbcon makes the (reasonable) assumption that it only needs to program the
hardware once, when fbcon_init() is called for the foreground console.
This doesn't always play well with vgacon because vgacon_deinit() is only
doing its job when the last console it owns is closed (when switching from
vgacon to fbcon, that's usually *after* fbcon_init() has set the new
mode).
Depending on the hardware this can cause the wrong framebuffer location to
be scanned out (e.g. reproduced on nv05 with the nouveau framebuffer
driver).

Attempting to unload a framebuffer module calls unregister_framebuffer()
which in turn gets fbcon to release it. If fbcon has no framebuffers
linked to a console, it will also unbind itself from the console driver.
However, if fbcon never registered itself as a console driver, the unbind
will fail causing the framebuffer device entry to persist. In most cases
this failure will result in an oops when attempting to access the now
non-existent device.
This patch ensures that the fbcon unbind request will succeed even if a
bind was never done. It tracks if a successful bind ever occurred & will
only attempt to unbind if needed. If there never was a bind, it simply
returns with no error.

At the moment about half of the framebuffer drivers can return an error
code in fb_set_par. Until now it would be silently ignored by fbmem.c
and fbcon.c. This patch fixes fbmem.c to return the error code and
restore var on error.
But it is not clear in which video mode the device is when fb_set_par
fails. It would be good and reasonable if it were in the old state but
there is no guarantee that this is true for all existing drivers.
Additionally print a message if a failing fb_set_par is detected in
fbmem.c or fbcon.c.
Although most errors should be caught by the previous fb_check_var some
errors can't as they are dynamic (memory allocations, ...) and can only be
detected while performing the operations which is forbidden in
fb_check_var.
This patch shouldn't have a negative impact on normal operation as all
drivers return 0 on success. The impact in case of error depends heavily
on the driver and caller but it's expected to be better than before.

Many years ago when this driver was written, it had a use, but these
days it's nothing but trouble and distributions should not enable it
in any situation.
Pretty much every console device a sparc machine could see has a
bonafide real driver, making the PROM console hack unnecessary.
If any new device shows up, we should write a driver instead of
depending upon this crutch to save us. We've been able to take care
of this even when no chip documentation exists (sunxvr500, sunxvr2500)
so there are no excuses.

Catalin and kmemleak spotted a leak of a VC screen buffer in
vc_allocate() due to the following chain of events:
vc_allocate()
visual_init(init=1)
vc->vc_sw->con_init(init=1)
fbcon_init()
vc_resize()
vc->screen_buf = kmalloc()
vc->screen_buf = kmalloc()
The common way for the VC drivers is to set the screen dimension
parameters manually in the init case and only call vc_resize() for
!init - which allocates a screen buffer according to the new
dimensions.
fbcon instead would do vc_resize() unconditionally and afterwards set
the dimensions manually (again) for !init - i.e. completely upside
down. The vc_resize() allocated buffer would then get lost by
vc_allocate() allocating a fresh one.
Use vc_resize() only for actual resizing to close the leak.
Set the dimensions manually only in initialization mode to remove the
redundant setting in resize mode.

Uwe Geuder noted that he gets random bitmaps on a text console if he tried
to type extended characters (like the e acute). For him everything above
unicode 0xa0 was corrupted.
After some digging there seems to be a little culprit in vgacon since the
beginning of ages (well git). The function vgacon_font_get will store the
number of characters correctly in font->charcount but then calls to
vgacon_do_font_op(..., 0, 0). Which means only the lower 256 characters
are actually stored to the fontdata. The rest is left untouched. So the
next time that saved data is used, the garbled font appears. This happens
on every switch between text consoles.

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.

The current implementation of fbcon_exit() sets the fbcon workqueue
function info->queue.func to NULL, but does not assure that there is no
work pending when it does so. On occasion, depending on system timing,
there will still be pending work in the queue when fbcon_exit() is
called. This results in a null pointer deference when run_workqueue()
tries to call the queue's work function.
Fixes errors on shutdown similar to these:
Console: switching to colour dummy device 80x25
Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000000

The commit aef7db4bd5 fixed the problem with
recursive locking in fb blanking code if blank is caused by user setting
the /sys/class/graphics/fb*/blank. However this broke the fbcon timeout
blanking.
If you use a driver that defines ->fb_blank operation and at the same time
that driver relies on other driver (e.g. backlight or lcd class) to blank
the screen, when the fbcon times out and tries to blank the fb, it will
call only fb driver blanker and won't notify the other driver. Thus FB
output is disabled, but the screen isn't blanked.
Restore fbcon blanking and at the same time apply the proper fix for the
above problem: if fbcon_blank is called with FBINFO_FLAG_USEREVENT, we are
already called through notification from fb_blank, thus we don't have to
blank the fb again.

Updatescrollmode is marked inline, but it's big and is called only from
non-critical codepaths (fbcon_resize, fbcon_switch, fbcon_modechanged).
Dropping it saves almost 800 bytes of text size.

There's no point in checking diff == c->vc_rows, because it can be true
only when count == 0, but we already checked that. Additionally move
variables used only in one block to this block.

This reverts commit c9e587abfd, and the
subsequent commits that fixed it up:
- afa9b649 "fbcon: prevent cursor disappearance after switching to 512
character font"
- d850a2fa "vt/fbcon: fix background color on line feed"
- 7fe3915a "vt/fbcon: update scrl_erase_char after 256/512-glyph font
switch"
by request of Alan Cox. Quoth Alan:
"Unfortunately it's wrong and its been causing breakages because
various apps like ncurses expect our previous (and correct)
behaviour."
Alexander sent out a similar patch.
