6db4063c5b [PATCH] VT binding: Add sysfs control to the VT layer
Add sysfs control to the VT layer.  A new sysfs class, 'vtconsole', and class
devices 'vtcon[n]' are added.  Each class device file has the following
attributes:

/sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon[n]/name - read-only attribute showing the
                                     name of the current backend

/sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon[n]/bind - read/write attribute
             where: 0 - backend is unbound/unbind backend from the VT layer
                    1 - backend is bound/bind backend to the VT layer

In addition, if any of the consoles are in KD_GRAPHICS mode, binding and
unbinding will not succeed.  KD_GRAPHICS mode usually indicates that the
underlying console hardware is used for other purposes other than displaying
text (ie X).  This feature should prevent binding/unbinding from interfering
with a graphics application using the VT.

e614b18dce [PATCH] VT binding: Update fbcon to support binding
The control for binding/unbinding is moved from fbcon to the console layer.
Thus the fbcon sysfs attributes, attach and detach, are also gone.

    1. Add a notifier event that tells fbcon if a framebuffer driver has been
       unregistered.  If no registered driver remains, fbcon will unregister
       itself from the console layer.

    2. Replaced calls to give_up_console() with unregister_con_driver().

    3. Still use take_over_console() instead of register_con_driver() to
       maintain compatibility

    4. Respect the parameter first_fb_vc and last_fb_vc instead of using 0 and
       MAX_NR_CONSOLES - 1. These parameters are settable by the user.

    5. When fbcon is completely unbound from the console layer, fbcon will
       also release (iow, decrement module reference counts to zero) all fbdev
       drivers. In other words, a bind or unbind request from the console layer
       will propagate down to the framebuffer drivers.

    6. If fbcon is not bound to the console, it will ignore all notifier
       events (except driver registration and unregistration) and all sysfs
       requests.

3e795de763 [PATCH] VT binding: Add binding/unbinding support for the VT console
The framebuffer console is now able to dynamically bind and unbind from the VT
console layer.  Due to the way the VT console layer works, the drivers
themselves decide when to bind or unbind.  However, it was decided that
binding must be controlled, not by the drivers themselves, but by the VT
console layer.  With this, dynamic binding is possible for all VT console
drivers, not just fbcon.

Thus, the VT console layer will impose the following to all VT console
drivers:

- all registered VT console drivers will be entered in a private list
- drivers can register themselves to the VT console layer, but they cannot
  decide when to bind or unbind. (Exception: To maintain backwards
  compatibility, take_over_console() will automatically bind the driver after
  registration.)
- drivers can remove themselves from the list by unregistering from the VT
  console layer. A prerequisite for unregistration is that the driver must not
  be bound.

The following functions are new in the vt.c:

register_con_driver() - public function, this function adds the VT console
driver to an internal list maintained by the VT console

bind_con_driver() - private function, it binds the driver to the console

take_over_console() is changed to call register_con_driver() followed by a
bind_con_driver().  This is the only time drivers can decide when to bind to
the VT layer.  This is to maintain backwards compatibility.

unbind_con_driver() - private function, it unbinds the driver from its
console.  The vacated consoles will be taken over by the default boot console
driver.

unregister_con_driver() - public function, removes the driver from the
internal list maintained by the VT console.  It will only succeed if the
driver is currently unbound.

con_is_bound() checks if the driver is currently bound or not

give_up_console() is just a wrapper to unregister_con_driver().

There are also 3 additional functions meant to be called only by the tty layer
for sysfs control:

	vt_bind() - calls bind_con_driver()
	vt_unbind() - calls unbind_con_driver()
	vt_show_drivers() - shows the list of registered drivers

Most VT console drivers will continue to work as is, but might have problems
when unbinding or binding which should be fixable with minimal changes.

5428b04405 [PATCH] Detaching fbcon: add capability to attach/detach fbcon
Add the ability to detach and attach the framebuffer console to and from the
vt layer.  This is done by echo'ing any value to sysfs attributes located in
class/graphics/fbcon.  The two attributes are:

      attach - bind fbcon to the vt layer
      detach - unbind fbcon from the vt layer

Once fbcon is detached from the vt layer, fbcon can be unloaded if compiled as
a module.  This feature is quite useful for developers who work on the
framebuffer or console subsystem.  This is also useful for users who want to
go to text mode or graphics mode without having to reboot.

Directly unloading the fbcon module is not possible because the vt layer
increments the module reference count for all bound consoles.  Detaching fbcon
decrements the module reference count to zero so unloading becomes possible.

Detaching fbcon may interfere with X and/or DRM.

9a17917671 [PATCH] Detaching fbcon: sdd sysfs class device entry for fbcon
In order for this feature to work, an interface will be needed.  The most
appropriate is sysfs.  However, the framebuffer console has no sysfs entry
yet.  This will create a sysfs class device entry for fbcon under
/sys/class/graphics.

Add a class_device entry 'fbcon' under class 'graphics'.  Console-specific
attributes which where previously under class/graphics/fb[x] are moved to
class/graphics/fbcon.  These attributes, 'con_rotate' and 'con_rotate_all',
are also renamed to 'rotate' and 'rotate_all' respectively.

Detaching fbcon allows individual drivers to be unloaded.  However several
drivers call pci_disable_device() upon exit.  This function will disable the

1c8ce271fe [PATCH] Detaching fbcon: fix give_up_console()
To allow for detaching fbcon, it must be able to give up the console.
However, the function give_up_console() is plain broken.  It just sets the
entries in the console driver map to NULL, it leaves the vt layer without a
console driver, and does not decrement the module reference count.  Calling
give_up_console() is guaranteed to hang the machine..

To fix this problem, ensure that the virtual consoles are not left dangling
without a driver.  All systems have a default boot driver (either vgacon or
dummycon) which is never unloaded.  For those vt's that lost their driver, the
default boot driver is reassigned back to them.

50ec42edd9 [PATCH] Detaching fbcon: fix vgacon to allow retaking of the console
One of the limitations of the framebuffer console system is its inablity to
unload or detach itself from the console layer.  And once it loads, it also
locks in framebuffer drivers preventing their unload. Although the con2fbmap
utility does provide a means to unload individual drivers, it requires that at
least one framebuffer driver is loaded for use by fbcon.

With this change, it is possible to detach fbcon from the console layer. If it
is detached, it will reattach the boot console driver (which is permanently
loaded) back to the console layer so the system can continue to work.  As a
consequence, fbcon will also decrement its reference count of individual
framebuffer drivers, allowing all of these drivers to be unloaded even if
fbcon is still loaded.

Unless you use drivers that restores the display to text mode (rivafb and
i810fb, for example), detaching fbcon does require assistance from userspace
tools (ie, vbetools) for text mode to be restored completely.  Without the
help of these tools, fbcon will leave the VGA console corrupted. The methods
that can be used will be described in Documentation/fb/fbcon.txt.

Because the vt layer also increments the module reference count for each
console driver, fbcon cannot be directly unloaded.  It must be detached first
prior to unload.

Similarly, fbcon can be reattached to the console layer without having to
reload the module.  A nice feature if fbcon is compiled statically.

Attaching and detaching fbcon is done via sysfs attributes. A class device
entry for fbcon is created in /sys/class/graphics. The two attributes that
controls this feature are detach and attach. Two other attributes that are
piggybacked under /sys/class/graphics/fb[n] that are fbcon-specific,
'con_rotate' and 'con_rotate_all' are moved to fbcon.  They are renamed as
'rotate' and 'rotate_all' respectively.

Overall, this feature is a great help for developers working in the
framebuffer or console layer.  There is not need to continually reboot the
kernel for every small change. It is also useful for regular users who wants
to choose between a graphical console or a text console without having to
reboot.

Example usage for x86:

/* start in text mode */
modprobe xxxfb
modprobe fbcon
/* graphical mode with fbcon using xxxfb */
echo 1 > /sys/class/graphics/fbcon/detach
/* back to text mode, will produce corrupt display unless vbetool is used */
rmmod xxxfb
modprobe yyyfb
/* back to graphical mode with fbcon using yyyfb */

Before trying out this feature, please read Documentation/fb/fbcon.txt.

This patch:

In order for fbcon to detach itself from the console layer, vgacon, which is a
boot console driver, must be fixed so it can retake the console multiple
times, not just during init.  The following needs to be done:

- remove __init from the vgacon_startup, this is called again by
  take_over_console().

- vc->rows and vc->cols are set manually by vgacon during init. After init,
  vc_resize() can be used

- make sure the scrollback_buffer is not reallocated

4efefd1d8e [PATCH] neofb: fix unblank logic interfering with lid toggled backlight
This is a fix for the most annoying problem that remained with neofb:

After "setterm -powersave powerdown" the console blanker will disable the
backlight after the given timeout expires.  If this happens after the lid
has been shut, we read "LCD off" from the register and store that in the
driver.  Once the lid is opened, the backlight turns on, but any key press
that would awaken the blanked console will switch the backlight off again.

The workaround so far was to use the "display config toggle" Fn key combo -
once if no external display is attached, otherwise as often as required to
restore the desired display setup.

The following patch fixes the issue at least for the LCD-only case, with no
external monitor attached.  Other display setup permutations are pending
further testing, but so far I can guarantee at least no negative change in
behaviour, if any at all.

Fix image and color handling in atyfb_cursor()

- In the 2-bit scheme of the cursor image, just set the first bit to be
  always zero (turn off transparency and/or XOR), and just do the masking
  manually

- The cursor color is converted into 32-bit RGBA8888 using struct fb_cmap.
  Each component in the cmap is u16 in size, so mask the upper 8 bits.

8eec498108 [PATCH] nvidiafb: Revise pci_device_id table
nVidia is churning out chipsets like there's no tomorrow.  And even though the
pci_device_id table now has numerous entries, it is still not guaranteed that
all supported devices are included or will be included.

Fortunately, nvidiafb has chipset detection logic built in.  So, change the
contents of the pci_device_id table so it will capture all nVidia devices of
the display class.  Unsupported chipsets will then be filtered out by
nvidiafb's detection logic.

3007683144 [PATCH] fbdev: More accurate sync range extrapolation
The EDID block should specify the display's operating limits (vertical and
horizontal sync ranges, and maximum dot clock).  If not given by the EDID
block, the ranges are extrapolated from the modelist.  However, the
computation used is only a rough approximation, and the resulting values may
not reflect the actual capability of the display.  This problem is frequently
encountered when the EDID block has a single entry, the single mode entry will
fail validation.

To prevent this, calculate the values based on the same method used in
fb_validate_mode().
