803a4e14a7 uvesafb,vesafb: create WC or WB PAT-entries
with an PAT-enabled kernel, when using uvesafb or vesafb, these drivers will
create uncached-minus PAT entries for the framebuffer memory because they use
ioremap() (not the *_cache or *_wc variants). When the framebuffer memory
intersects with the video RAM used by Xorg, the complete video RAM will be
mapped uncached-minus what results in a serve performance penalty.

Here are the correct MTRR entries created by uvesafb:
schlicht@netbook:~$ cat /proc/mtrr
reg00: base=0x000000000 ( 0MB), size= 2048MB, count=1: write-back
reg01: base=0x06ff00000 ( 1791MB), size= 1MB, count=1: uncachable
reg02: base=0x070000000 ( 1792MB), size= 256MB, count=1: uncachable
reg03: base=0x0d0000000 ( 3328MB), size= 16MB, count=1: write-combining

And here are the problematic PAT entries:
schlicht@netbook:~$ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/x86/pat_memtype_list
PAT memtype list:
write-back @ 0x0-0x1000
uncached-minus @ 0x6fedd000-0x6fee3000

uncached-minus @ 0xf5404000-0xf5405000
uncached-minus @ 0xfed00000-0xfed01000

Therefore I created the attached patch for uvesafb which uses ioremap_wc() to
create the correct PAT entries, as shown below:
schlicht@netbook:~$ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/x86/pat_memtype_list
PAT memtype list:

uncached-minus @ 0xf5404000-0xf5405000
uncached-minus @ 0xfed00000-0xfed01000

This results in a performance gain, objectively measurable with e.g.
x11perf -comppixwin10 -comppixwin100 -comppixwin500:
1: x11perf_xaa.log
2: x11perf_xaa_patched.log

       1                2 Operation
-------- ---------------- -----------------
124000.0 202000.0 ( 1.63) Composite 10x10 from pixmap to window
  3340.0  24400.0 ( 7.31) Composite 100x100 from pixmap to window
   131.0   1150.0 ( 8.78) Composite 500x500 from pixmap to window

You can see the serve performance gain when composing larger pixmaps to window.

The patches replace the ioremap() function with the variant matching the mtrr-
parameter. To create "write-back" PAT entries, the ioremap_cache() function
must be called after creating the MTRR entries, and the ioremap_cache() region
must completely fit into the MTRR region, this is why the MTRR region size is
now rounded up to the next power-of-two.

fc95c6d9b4 vesafb: use platform_driver_probe() instead of platform_driver_register()
Commit c2e13037e6 ("platform-drivers: move
probe to .devinit.text in drivers/video") introduced a huge amount of
section mismatch warnings in vesafb code.  Rather than converting all of
the annotations, do the obvious and revert the __init -> __devinit change,
and use the recommended (in that patch) alternative to calling
platform_driver_register(): vesafb depends on information obtained from by
kernel at boot time, cannot be a module, and no post-boot devices can ever
show up.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
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.

c2e13037e6 platform-drivers: move probe to .devinit.text in drivers/video
A pointer to a probe callback is passed to the core via
platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the
.init sections are discarded.  Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y)
unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an
oops as does a device being registered late.

An alternative to this patch is using platform_driver_probe instead of
platform_driver_register plus removing the pointer to the probe function
from the struct platform_driver.

4410f39109 fbdev: add support for handoff from firmware to hw framebuffers
With KMS we have ran into an issue where we really want the KMS fb driver
to be the one running the console, so panics etc can be shown by switching
out of X etc.

However with vesafb/efifb built-in, we end up with those on fb0 and the
KMS fb driver on fb1, driving the same piece of hw, so this adds an fb
info flag to denote a firmware fbdev, and adds a new aperture base/size
range which can be compared when the hw drivers are installed to see if
there is a conflict with a firmware driver, and if there is the firmware
driver is unregistered and the hw driver takes over.

It uses new aperture_base/size members instead of comparing on the fix
smem_start/length, as smem_start/length might for example only cover the
first 1MB of the PCI aperture, and we could allocate the kms fb from 8MB
into the aperture, thus they would never overlap.

Bugzilla Bug 6299:

A pixel size of 8 bits produces wrong logo colors in x86_64.

The driver has 2 methods for setting the color map, using the protected
mode interface provided by the video BIOS and directly writing to the VGA
registers.  The former is not supported in x86_64 and the latter is enabled
only in i386.

Fix by enabling the latter method in x86_64 only if supported by the BIOS.
If both methods are unsupported, change the visual of vesafb to
STATIC_PSEUDOCOLOR.

2b4f2f4b01 [PATCH] vesafb: Drop blank hook
From: Bugzilla Bug 5351

"After resuming from S3 (suspended while in X), the LCD panel stays black .
 However, the laptop is up again, and I can SSH into it from another
machine.

I can get the panel working again, when I first direct video output to the
CRT output of the laptop, and then back to LCD (done by repeatedly hitting
Fn+F5 buttons on the Toshiba, which directs output to either LCD, CRT or
TV) None of this ever happened with older kernels."

This bug is due to the recently added vesafb_blank() method in vesafb.  It
works with CRT displays, but has a high incidence of problems in laptop
users.  Since CRT users don't really get that much benefit from hardware
blanking, drop support for this.

c465e05a03 [PATCH] fbcon/fbdev: Move softcursor out of fbdev to fbcon
According to Jon Smirl, filling in the field fb_cursor with soft_cursor for
drivers that do not support hardware cursors is redundant.  The soft_cursor
function is usable by all drivers because it is just a wrapper around
fb_imageblit.  And because soft_cursor is an fbcon-specific hook, the file is
moved to the console directory.

Thus, drivers that do not support hardware cursors can leave the fb_cursor
field blank.  For drivers that do, they can fill up this field with their own
version.

The end result is a smaller code size.  And if the framebuffer console is not
loaded, module/kernel size is also reduced because the soft_cursor module will
also not be loaded.

bb7e257ef8 [PATCH] vesafb: Fix display corruption on display blank
Reported by: Bob Tracy <rct@gherkin.frus.com>

 "...I've got a Toshiba notebook (730XCDT -- Pentium 150MMX) for which
  I'm using the Vesa FB driver.  When the machine has been idle for some
  time and the driver attempts to powerdown the display, rather than the
  display going blank, it goes gray with several strange lines.  When I
  hit the "shift" key or other-wise wake up the display, the old video
  state is not fully restored..."

vesafb recently added a blank method which has only 2 states, powerup and
powerdown.  The powerdown state is used for all blanking levels, but in his
case, powerdown does not work correctly for higher levels of display
powersaving. Thus, for intermediate power levels, use software blanking,
and use only hardware blanking for an explicit powerdown.

d2d58384fc [PATCH] vesafb: Add blanking support
Add rudimentary support by manipulating the VGA registers.  However, not
all vesa modes are VGA compatible, so VGA compatiblity is checked first.
Only 2 levels are supported, powerup and powerdown.

8062594209 [PATCH] vesafb: Fix mtrr bugs

Range is already set to write-back, vesafb attempts to add a write-combining
mtrr (default for vesafb).

>> mtrr: size and base must be multiples of 4 kiB

This is a bug, vesafb attempts to add a size < PAGE_SIZE triggering
the messages below.

To eliminate the warning messages, you can add the option mtrr:2 to add a
write-back mtrr for vesafb.  Or just use nomtrr option.

1. Fix algorithm for finding the best power of 2 size with mtrr_add().

2. Add option to choose the mtrr type by extending the mtrr boot option:

   mtrr:n where n

        0 = no mtrr (equivalent to using the nomtrr option)
        1 = uncachable
        2 = write back
        3 = write combining (default)
        4 = write through

78c03717c4 [PATCH] some vesafb fixes
Fix the size passed to release_mem_region in an error path.

Also adjust the message printed when vesafb cannot load; the comment there
already says this must not be fatal, so the message should also not mention
the word 'abort' otherwise indicating a problem to worry about in the log.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
