Ralf Baechle c24c55c75a Fix font dependency for SGI Newport console driver
We better select a font when the newport driver is a module or the user
experience might suffer.

Fix following section mismatch warning:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x121e62): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:__alloc_bootmem (between 'vgacon_startup' and 'vgacon_scrolldelta')

Browsing the code it seems that vgacon_scrollback_startup() is only called
during the init phase so the reference to the .init.text section is OK.

Jesse Barnes cfafca8067 fbdev: fbcon: console unregistration from unregister_framebuffer
This allows for proper console unregistration via the VT layer, and updates
the FB layer to use it.  This makes debugging new console drivers much easier,
since you can properly clean them up before unloading.

[adaplas]
unregister_framebuffer() is typically called as part of the driver's
module_exit(). Doing so otherwise will freeze the machine as the VT layer is
holding reference counts on fbcon, and fbcon on the driver.  With this change,
it allows unregister_framebuffer() to be called safely anywhere as needed.

Additions from the original:  If multiple drivers are used by fbcon, and if
one of them unregisters, a driver will take over the consoles vacated by the
outgoing one (via set_con2fb_map).   Once only the outgoing driver remains,
then fbcon will unbind from the VT layer (if CONFIG_HW_CONSOLE_UNBINDING is
set to y).

It is important that these drivers implement fb_open() and fb_release()
just to ensure that no other process is using the driver. Likewise, these
drivers _must_ check the return value of unregister_framebuffer().

Antonino A. Daplas d1baa4ffa6 fbcon: set_con2fb_map fixes
set_con2fb_map() has regressed for some time.  Using fbcon=map:01, for
example, works only if there is only 1 working framebuffer. Trying to do a
set_con2fb_map() on a non-allocated vc will freeze the system.

- ensure that succeeding drivers after the first gets mapped to the console
- remove fbcon_preset_display() and modify fbcon_set_display() to include the
  former's functionality
- ensure that binding and unbinding succeeds if multiple drivers are mapped to
  the console

Antonino A. Daplas 623e71b035 fbcon: allow fbcon to use the primary display driver
Allow fbcon to select the primary display adapter using the
fb_is_primary_device() arch-specific helper.  If a a primary adapter is
detected, fbcon will unbind the old adapter from the VT layer, then rebind
using the new adapter.  This requires that bind_/unbind_con_driver() be made
public.

Because this feature may produce unexpected behavior (from the user's POV),
this must be explicitly enabled in Kconfig.

Sam Ravnborg 353076fee8 [VIDEO]: Fix section mismatch warning in promcon.
Fix the following warnings in promcon:
WARNING: o-sparc64/drivers/video/console/built-in.o(.text+0x480): Section mismatch: reference to .init.data:promfont_unitable (between 'promcon_init_unimap' and 'promcon_init')

WARNING: o-sparc64/drivers/video/console/built-in.o(.text+0x490): Section mismatch: reference to .init.data:promfont_unicount (between 'promcon_init_unimap' and 'promcon_init')

The warnings happens because the function: promcon_init_unimap()
references promfont_unitable and promfont_unicount which are marked
__initdata by the conmakehash command in the drivers/video/console/Makefile

Fix the warning by removing the __initdata marker on the two variables.

Antonino A. Daplas 2ae8547775 vgacon: disallow console operations when in KD_GRAPHICS mode
Reported by James Pearson as:

	 boot to run level 3

	 if not root, then make sure /dev/console is writeable

	 login and type:

	 setterm -blank 0

	 start X

	 type into an xterm:

	 while true; do echo "" > /dev/console; usleep 100000; done

	 while the above loop is running switch to the text console and back
	 again (Ctrl-Alt-F1 then Ctrl-Alt-F7)

	 ... and the screen will be shifting (and wrapping) to the left.

This problem stems from continuously writing text to the system console (which
is in KD_TEXT mode) while the foreground console is in KD_GRAPHICS
mode. Somewhere along the way, console printing got confused and omitted the
KD_GRAPHICS/KD_TEXT test.  Thus, vgacon attempted to scroll the screen of X,
which causes X to shift.

Fix by disallowing vgacon to touch the hardware when the vc is in KD_GRAPHICS
mode. A definitive fix entails a full audit of the console code.

Check if the mode can properly display the screen.  This will be needed by
drivers where the capability is not constant with each mode.  The function
fb_set_var() will query fbcon the requirement, then it will query the driver

cannot handle fbcon's requirement, then fb_set_var() will fail.

For example, if a particular driver supports 2 modes where:

mode1 = can only display 8x16 bitmaps
mode2 = can display any bitmap

then if current mode = mode2 and current font = 12x22

fbset <mode1> /* mode1 cannot handle 12x22 */

Antonino A. Daplas 70802c6037 fbdev: don't show logo if driver or fbcon are modular
It was always intended for the logo to be drawn only if both fbcon and the
driver that is mapped to it are both compiled statically.  Currently, if fbcon
is loaded prior to the driver, the logo is not shown.  Reverse the order, and
the code may attempt to draw the logo which is __initdata.  By accident, this
bug is rarely seen because this method of loading the modules is not common
and secondly, a code in fb_prepare_logo() that checks the height of the logo
(now a random value) rarely succeeds.

Fix by drawing the logo only if both fbcon and the driver are statically
compiled.

Tim Schmielau cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all

Franck Bui-Huu 024cd7e088 [PATCH] softcursor.c: avoid unaligned accesses
Fix some possible unaligned accesses when accessing fields of 'image'
pointer.  Indeed this pointer was obtained by allocating a block of memory
that embeds a temporary array plus an image structure.  The temporary
buffer was located at the start of the allocated block and depending on its
size, the image structure which comes right after can be unaligned.

For example when using mini fonts (4x6) (cursor's width is 4 and its height
is 6) the temporary buf size is 6 bytes.

Therefore this patch moves the image structure to the start of the block
and moves the temporary buffer right after.  It makes 'image' pointer
always aligned and since the tempo buf is a buffer of char, it's always
correctly aligned as well.

It also fixes the file header alignement.

David Howells 7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.

Every time the console cursor blinks, we do a kmalloc/kfree pair.  This
patch turns that into a single allocation.

This allocation was the most frequent kmalloc I saw on my test box.

Per Alan's suggestion, move global variables to fbcon's private structure.
This would also avoid resource leaks when fbcon is unloaded.
