Commit 02dd7ae2892e5ceff111d032769c78d3377df970 ("[PATCH] i2c-i801:
Merge setup function") has a missing return 0 in the _probe() function.
This means the error path is always executed and pci_disable_device() is
called even when the device just got successfully enabled.
Having the SMBus device disabled makes some systems (eg.
Fujitsu-Siemens Lifebook E8010) hang hard during power-off.
Intead of reverting the whole commit this patch fixes it up:
- don't ever call pci_disable_device(), also not in the _remove() function
to avoid hangs
- fix missing pci_release_region() in error path

Collection of fixes for the ColdFire FEC ethernet driver:
. reworked event setting so that it occurs after the MII setup.
roucaries bastien <roucaries.bastien@gmail.com>
. Do not read cbd_sc in memory for each bit we test. Once per buffer is enough.
. Overrun errors must increase `rx_fifo_errors', not `rx_crc_errors'
. No need for a special value to activate rx or tx. Only write access matters.
. Simplify parameter of eth_copy_and_sum : `data' has already the right value.
. Some spelling fixes.

sysfs entries 'sched_mc_power_savings' and 'sched_smt_power_savings' in
/sys/devices/system/cpu/ control the MC/SMT power savings policy for the
scheduler.
Based on the values (1-enable, 0-disable) for these controls, sched groups
cpu power will be determined for different domains. When power savings
policy is enabled and under light load conditions, scheduler will minimize
the physical packages/cpu cores carrying the load and thus conserving
power(with a perf impact based on the workload characteristics... see OLS
2005 CMP kernel scheduler paper for more details..)

gpio_dump
Add current pin settings to gpio_dump() output. This adds the last 'word' to
the syslog lines, which displays the input and output values that the pin is
set to.
pc8736x_gpio.0: io00: 0x0044 TS OD PUE EDGE LO DEBOUNCE io:1/1
The 2 values may differ for a number of reasons:
1- the pin output circuitry is diaabled, (as the above 'TS' indicates)
2- it needs a pullup resistor to drive the attached circuit,
3- the external circuit needs a pullup so the open-drain has something
to pull-down
4- the pin is wired to Vcc or Ground
It might be appropriate to add a WARN for 2,3,4, since they could
damage the chip and/or circuit, esp if misconfig goes unnoticed.

Use of dev_dbg() and friends is considered good practice. dev_dbg() needs a
struct device *devp, but nsc_gpio is only a helper module, so it doesnt
have/need its own. To provide devp to the user-modules (scx200 & pc8736x
_gpio), we add it to the vtable, and set it during init.
Also squeeze nsc_gpio_dump()'s format a little.

dev_dbg
Add a platform-device to scx200_gpio, and use its struct device dev member
(ie: devp) in dev_dbg() once.
There are 2 alternatives here (Im soliciting guidance/commentary):
- use isa_device, if/when its added to the kernel.
- alter scx200.c to EXPORT_GPL its private devp so that both scx200_gpio,
and the (to be added) nsc_gpio module can use it. Since the available devp
is in 'grandparent', this seems like too much 'action at a distance'.

GPIO SUPPORT FOR SCx200 & PC8736x
The patch-set reworks the 2.4 vintage scx200_gpio driver for modern 2.6, and
refactors GPIO support to reuse it in a new driver for the GPIO on PC-8736x
chips. Its handy for the Soekris.com net-4801, which has both chips.
These patches have been seen recently on Kernel-Mentors, and then
Kernel-Newbies ML, where Jesper Juhl kindly reviewed it. His feedback has
been incorporated. Thanks Jesper !
Its also gone to soekris-tech@soekris.com for possible testing by linux folks,
I've gotten 1 promise so far. Theyre mostly BSD folk over there, but we'll
see..
Device-file & Sysfs
The driver preserves the existing device-file interface, including the
write/cmd set, but adds v to 'view' the pin-settings & configs by inducing,
via gpio_dump(), a dev_info() call. Its a fairly crappy way to get status,
but it sticks to the syslog approach, conservatively.
Allowing users to voluntarily trigger logging is good, it gives them a
familiar way to confirm their app's control & use of the pins, and I've thus
reduced the pin-mode-updates from dev_info to dev_dbg.
I've recently bolted on a proto sysfs interface for both new drivers. Im not
including those patches here; they (the patch + doc-pre-patch) are still quite
raw (and unreviewed on KNML), and since they 'invent' a convention for GPIO, a
proper vetting is needed. Since this patchset is much bigger than my previous
ones, Id like to keep things simpler, and address it 1st, before bolting on
more stuff.
The driver-split
The Geode CPU and the PC-87366 Super-IO chip have GPIO units which share a
common pin-architecture (same pin features, with same bits controlling), but
with different addressing mechanics and port organizations.
The vintage driver expresses the pin capabilities with pin-mode commands
[OoPpTt],etc that change the pin configurations, and since the 2 chips share
pin-arch, we can reuse the read(), write() commands, once the implementation
is suitably adjusted.
The patchset adds a vtable: struct nsc_gpio_ops, to abstract the existing gpio
operations, then adjusts fileops.write() code to invoke operations via that
vtable. Driver specific open()s set private_data to the vtable so its
available for use by write().
The vtable gets the gpio_dump() too, since its user-friendly, and (could be
construed as) part of the current device-file interface. To support use of
dev_dbg() in write() & _dump(), the vtable gets a dev ptr too, set by both
scx200 & pc8736x _gpio drivers.
heres how the pins are presented in syslog:
[ 1890.176223] scx200_gpio.0: io00: 0x0044 TS OD PUE EDGE LO DEBOUNCE
[ 1890.287223] scx200_gpio.0: io01: 0x0003 OE PP PUD EDGE LO
nsc_gpio.c: new file is new home of several file-ops methods, which are
modified to get their vtable from filp->private_data, and use it where needed.
scx200_gpio.c: keeps some of its existing gpio routines, but now wires them up
via the vtable (they're invoked by nsc_gpio.c:nsc_gpio_write() thru this
vtable). A driver-spcific open() initializes filp->private_data with the
vtable.
Once the split is clean, and the scx200_gpio driver is working, we copy and
modify the function and variable names, and rework the access-method bodies
for the different addressing scheme.

In 2.6.17, there was a problem with cpu_notifiers and XFS. I provided a
band-aid solution to solve that problem. In the process, i undid all the
changes you both were making to ensure that these notifiers were available
only at init time (unless CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is defined).
We deferred the real fix to 2.6.18. Here is a set of patches that fixes the
XFS problem cleanly and makes the cpu notifiers available only at init time
(unless CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is defined).
If CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is defined then cpu notifiers are available at run
time.
This patch reverts the notifier_call changes made in 2.6.17

- convert rwlocks in a similar manner
this patch was generated automatically.
Motivation:
- cleanliness
- lockdep needs control of lock initialization, which the open-coded
variants do not give
- it's also useful for -rt and for lock debugging in general

With Goto-san's patch, we can add new pgdat/node at runtime. I'm now
considering node-hot-add with cpu + memory on ACPI.
I found acpi container, which describes node, could evaluate cpu before
memory. This means cpu-hot-add occurs before memory hot add.
In most part, cpu-hot-add doesn't depend on node hot add. But register_cpu(),
which creates symbolic link from node to cpu, requires that node should be
onlined before register_cpu(). When a node is onlined, its pgdat should be
there.
This patch-set holds off creating symbolic link from node to cpu
until node is onlined.
This removes node arguments from register_cpu().
Now, register_cpu() requires 'struct node' as its argument. But the array of
struct node is now unified in driver/base/node.c now (By Goto's node hotplug
patch). We can get struct node in generic way. So, this argument is not
necessary now.
This patch also guarantees add cpu under node only when node is onlined. It
is necessary for node-hot-add vs. cpu-hot-add patch following this.
Moreover, register_cpu calculates cpu->node_id by cpu_to_node() without regard
to its 'struct node *root' argument. This patch removes it.
Also modify callers of register_cpu()/unregister_cpu, whose args are changed
by register-cpu-remove-node-struct patch.

When new node becomes enable by hot-add, new sysfs file must be created for
new node. So, if new node is enabled by add_memory(), register_one_node() is
called to create it. In addition, I386's arch_register_node() and a part of
register_nodes() of powerpc are consolidated to register_one_node() as a
generic_code().
This is tested by Tiger4(IPF) with node hot-plug emulation.

This is to find node id from acpi's handle of memory_device in DSDT. _PXM for
the new node can be found by acpi_get_pxm() by using new memory's handle. So,
node id can be found by pxm_to_nid_map[].
This patch becomes simpler than v2 of node hot-add patch.
Because old add_memory() function doesn't have node id parameter.
So, kernel must find its handle by physical address via DSDT again.
But, v3 just give node id to add_memory() now.

Change the name of old add_memory() to arch_add_memory. And use node id to
get pgdat for the node at NODE_DATA().
Note: Powerpc's old add_memory() is defined as __devinit. However,
add_memory() is usually called only after bootup.
I suppose it may be redundant. But, I'm not well known about powerpc.
So, I keep it. (But, __meminit is better at least.)

(avoid redundant call add_memory)
When acpi_memory_device_init() is called at boottime to register struct
memory acpi_memory_device, acpi_bus_add() are called via
acpi_driver_attach().
But it also calls ops->start() function. It is called even if the memory
blocks are initialized at early boottime. In this case add_memory() return
-EEXIST, and the memory blocks becomes INVALID state even if it is normal.
This is patch to avoid calling add_memory() for already available memory.

(register start func for memory device)
This is a patch to call add_memroy() when notify reaches for new node's add
event.
When new node is added, notify of ACPI reaches container device which means
the node.
Container device driver calls acpi_bus_scan() to find and add belonging
devices (which means cpu, memory and so on). Its function calls add and
start function of belonging devices's driver.
Howevever, current memory hotplug driver just register add function to
create sysfs file for its memory. But, acpi_memory_enable_device() is not
called because it is considered just the case that notify reaches memory
device directly. So, if notify reaches container device nothing can call
add_memory().
This is a patch to create start function which calls add_memory().
add_memory() can be called by this when notify reaches container device.

Current acpi memory hotplug just looks into the first entry of resources in
_CRS. But, _CRS can contain plural resources. So, if _CRS contains plural
resoureces, acpi memory hot add cannot add all memory.
With this patch, acpi memory hotplug can deal with Memory Device, whose
_CRS contains plural resources.
Tested on ia64 memory hotplug test envrionment (not emulation, uses alpha
version firmware which supports dynamic reconfiguration of NUMA.)
Note: Microsoft's Windows Server 2003 requires big (>4G)resoureces to be
divided into small (<4G) resources. looks crazy, but not invalid.
(See http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/system/pnppwr/hotadd/hotaddmem.mspx)
For this reason, a firmware vendor who supports Windows writes plural
resources in a _CRS even if they are contiguous.

Symbols such as PCI_USES_IO, PCI_ADDR0, etc. originated from Donald
Becker's net driver template, but have been long unused. Remove.
In a few drivers, this allows the further eliminate of the pci_flags (or
just plain flags) member in the template driver probe structure.
Most of this logic is simply open-coded in most drivers, since it never
changes.

* constify, __devinitdata several PCI ID tables
* replace table terminating entries such as "{0,}," and "{NULL},"

This reverts commit c7b2eff059fcc2d1b7085ee3d84b79fd657a537b.
Hugh Dickins explains:
"It seems too little tested: "losetup -d /dev/loop0" fails with
EINVAL because nothing sets lo_thread; but even when you patch
loop_thread() to set lo->lo_thread = current, it can't survive
more than a few dozen iterations of the loop below (with a tmpfs
mounted on /tst):
j=0
cp /dev/zero /tst
while :
do
let j=j+1
echo "Doing pass $j"
losetup /dev/loop0 /tst/zero
mkfs -t ext2 -b 1024 /dev/loop0 >/dev/null 2>&1
mount -t ext2 /dev/loop0 /mnt
umount /mnt
losetup -d /dev/loop0
done
it collapses with failed ioctl then BUG_ON(!bio).
I think the original lo_done completion was more subtle and safe
than the kthread conversion has allowed for."

During some profiling I noticed that default_idle causes a lot of
memory traffic. I think that is caused by the atomic operations
to clear/set the polling flag in thread_info. There is actually
no reason to make this atomic - only the idle thread does it
to itself, other CPUs only read it. So I moved it into ti->status.
Converted i386/x86-64/ia64 for now because that was the easiest
way to fix ACPI which also manipulates these flags in its idle
function.

Usually we don't care much about 'gcc -W' warnings, but some of us do build
kernels that way to look for problems, and then the fewer warnings we have
to wade through the better. Especially when they are very easy and
non-intrusive to clean up. Which is the case for the following warnings
spewed by drivers/usb/storage/usb.h :
drivers/usb/storage/usb.h:163: warning: `inline' is not at beginning of
+declaration
drivers/usb/storage/usb.h:166: warning: `inline' is not at beginning of
+declaration
There's also some precedence for cleaning up these warnings. I've had
a few patches merged in the past that remove exactly this class of
warnings.

This allows the state of an md/array to be directly controlled via sysfs and
adds the ability to stop and array without tearing it down.
Array states/settings:
clear
No devices, no size, no level
Equivalent to STOP_ARRAY ioctl
inactive
May have some settings, but array is not active
all IO results in error
When written, doesn't tear down array, but just stops it
suspended (not supported yet)
All IO requests will block. The array can be reconfigured.
Writing this, if accepted, will block until array is quiescent
readonly
no resync can happen. no superblocks get written.
write requests fail
read-auto
like readonly, but behaves like 'clean' on a write request.
clean - no pending writes, but otherwise active.
When written to inactive array, starts without resync
If a write request arrives then
if metadata is known, mark 'dirty' and switch to 'active'.
if not known, block and switch to write-pending
If written to an active array that has pending writes, then fails.
active
fully active: IO and resync can be happening.
When written to inactive array, starts with resync
write-pending (not supported yet)
clean, but writes are blocked waiting for 'active' to be written.
active-idle
like active, but no writes have been seen for a while (100msec).

- record the 'event' count on each individual device (they
might sometimes be slightly different now)
- add a new value for 'sb_dirty': '3' means that the super
block only needs to be updated to record a clean<->dirty
transition.
- Prefer odd event numbers for dirty states and even numbers
for clean states
- Using all the above, don't update the superblock on
a spare device if the update is just doing a clean-dirty
transition. To accomodate this, a transition from
dirty back to clean might now decrement the events counter
if nothing else has changed.
The net effect of this is that spare drives will not see any IO requests
during normal running of the array, so they can go to sleep if that is what
they want to do.

When an array has a bitmap, a device can be removed and re-added and only
blocks changes since the removal (as recorded in the bitmap) will be resynced.
It should be possible to do a similar thing to arrays without bitmaps. i.e.
if a device is removed and re-added and *no* changes have been made in the
interim, then the add should not require a resync.
This patch allows that option. This means that when assembling an array one
device at a time (e.g. during device discovery) the array can be enabled
read-only as soon as enough devices are available, but extra devices can still
be added without causing a resync.

Fix problems with new bmap based access to bitmap files.
1/ When not using a file based bitmap, attach a NULL list of buffers
to each page so the common free_buffer routine can cope.
2/ Use submit_bh to read as well as write, rather than vfs_read.
This makes read and write more symetric.
3/ sync the file before reading, to ensure that the page cache has no
dirty pages that might get written out later.

If md is asked to store a bitmap in a file, it tries to hold onto the page
cache pages for that file, manipulate them directly, and call a cocktail of
operations to write the file out. I don't believe this is a supportable
approach.
This patch changes the approach to use the same approach as swap files. i.e.
bmap is used to enumerate all the block address of parts of the file and we
write directly to those blocks of the device.
swapfile only uses parts of the file that provide a full pages at contiguous
addresses. We don't have that luxury so we have to cope with pages that are
non-contiguous in storage. To handle this we attach buffers to each page, and
store the addresses in those buffers.
With this approach the pagecache may contain data which is inconsistent with
what is on disk. To alleviate the problems this can cause, md invalidates the
pagecache when releasing the file. If the file is to be examined while the
array is active (a non-critical but occasionally useful function), O_DIRECT io
must be used. And new version of mdadm will have support for this.
This approach simplifies a lot of code:
- we no longer need to keep a list of pages which we need to wait for,
as the b_endio function can keep track of how many outstanding
writes there are. This saves a mempool.
- -EAGAIN returns from write_page are no longer possible (not sure if
they ever were actually).

md/bitmap code
md/bitmap gets a collection of pages representing the bitmap when it
initialises the bitmap, and puts all the references when discarding the
bitmap.
It also occasionally takes extra references without any good reason, and
sometimes drops them ... though it doesn't always drop them, which can result
in a memory leak.
This patch removes the unnecessary 'get_page' calls, and the corresponding
'put_page' calls.

md/bitmap currently has a separate thread to wait for writes to the bitmap

achieved by doing the waiting directly in bitmap_unplug.

The "industry standard" DDF format allows for a stripe/offset layout where
data is duplicated on different stripes. e.g.
A B C D
D A B C
E F G H
H E F G
(columns are drives, rows are stripes, LETTERS are chunks of data).
This is similar to raid10's 'far' mode, but not quite the same. So enhance
'far' mode with a 'far/offset' option which follows the layout of DDFs
stripe/offset.

The largest chunk size the code can support without substantial surgery is
2^30 bytes, so make that the limit instead of an arbitrary 4Meg. Some day,

If you misuse the device-mapper interface (or there's a bug in your userspace
tools) it's possible to end up with 'unlinked' mapped devices that cannot be
removed until you reboot (along with uninterruptible processes).
This patch prevents you from removing a device that is still open.
It introduces dm_lock_for_deletion() which is called when a device is about to
be removed to ensure that nothing has it open and nothing further can open it.
It uses a private open_count for this which also lets us remove one of the
problematic bdget_disk() calls elsewhere.

The device-mapper core does not perform any remapping of bios before passing
them to the targets. If a particular mapping begins part-way into a device,
targets obtain the sector relative to the start of the mapping by subtracting
ti->begin.
The dm-raid1 target didn't do this everywhere: this patch fixes it, taking
care to subtract ti->begin exactly once for each bio.

Persistent snapshots currently store a private copy of the chunk size.
Userspace also supplies the chunk size when loading a snapshot. Ensure
consistency by only storing the chunk_size in one place instead of two.
Currently the two sizes will differ if the chunk size supplied by userspace
does not match the chunk size an existing snapshot actually uses. Amongst
other problems, this causes an incorrect 'percentage full' to be reported.
The patch ensures consistency by only storing the chunk_size in one place,
removing it from struct pstore. Some initialisation is delayed until the
correct chunk_size is known. If read_header() discovers that the wrong chunk
size was supplied, the 'area' buffer (which the header already got read into)
is reinitialised to the correct size.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

behaviour, if any at all.
