fbdev: da8xx-fb: fix videomodes of lcd panels

2016-05-04T21:48:51+00:00

commit 713fced8d10fa1c759c8fb6bf9aaa681bae68cad upstream.

Commit 028cd86b794f4a ("video: da8xx-fb: fix the polarities of the
hsync/vsync pulse") fixes polarities of HSYNC/VSYNC pulse but
forgot to update known_lcd_panels[] which had sync values
according to old logic. This breaks LCD at least on DA850 EVM.

This patch fixes this issue and I have tested this for panel
"Sharp_LK043T1DG01" using DA850 EVM board.

xen kconfig: don't "select INPUT_XEN_KBDDEV_FRONTEND"

2016-05-04T21:48:45+00:00

commit 13aa38e291bdd4e4018f40dd2f75e464814dcbf3 upstream.

The Xen framebuffer driver selects the xen keyboard driver, so the latter
will be built-in if XEN_FBDEV_FRONTEND=y. However, when CONFIG_INPUT
is a loadable module, this configuration cannot work. On mainline kernels,
the symbol will be enabled but not used, while in combination with
a patch I have to detect such useless configurations, we get the
expected link failure:

drivers/input/built-in.o: In function `xenkbd_remove':
xen-kbdfront.c:(.text+0x2f0): undefined reference to `input_unregister_device'
xen-kbdfront.c:(.text+0x30e): undefined reference to `input_unregister_device'

This removes the extra "select", as it just causes more trouble than
it helps. In theory, some defconfig file might break if it has
XEN_FBDEV_FRONTEND in it but not INPUT_XEN_KBDDEV_FRONTEND. The Kconfig
fragment we ship in the kernel (kernel/configs/xen.config) however
already enables both, and anyone using an old .config file would
keep having both enabled.

OMAPDSS: fix timings for VENC to match what omapdrm expects

2015-12-09T10:57:13+00:00

Otherwise check_timings fails and we get a "has no modes" message
from xrandr.

This fix makes the venc assume PAL and NTSC timings that match the
timings synthetized by copy_timings_drm_to_omap() from omapdrm
mode settings so that check_timings() succeeds.

Tested on: BeagleBoard XM, GTA04 and OpenPandora

mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to sleep and avoiding waking kswapd

2015-11-07T01:50:42+00:00

__GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold
spinlocks or are in interrupts.  They are expected to be high priority and
have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred
to as the "atomic reserve".  __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first
lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve".

Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options
were available.  Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where
an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic
reserves.

This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic,
cannot sleep and have no alternative.  High priority users continue to use
__GFP_HIGH.  __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and
are willing to enter direct reclaim.  __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify
callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim.  __GFP_WAIT is
redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake
kswapd for background reclaim.

This patch then converts a number of sites

o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory
  pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag.

o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear
  __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall
  into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves
  are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress.

o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the
  helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because
  checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false
  positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent
  is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to
  flag manipulations.

o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL
  and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.

The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT
and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons.
In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH.

The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of
GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL.  They may
now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.  It's almost certainly harmless
if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

2015-10-14T14:51:34+00:00

Pull v4.4 EFI updates from Matt Fleming:

  - Make the EFI System Resource Table (ESRT) driver explicitly
    non-modular by ripping out the module_* code since Kconfig doesn't
    allow it to be built as a module anyway. (Paul Gortmaker)

  - Make the x86 efi=debug kernel parameter, which enables EFI debug
    code and output, generic and usable by arm64. (Leif Lindholm)

  - Add support to the x86 EFI boot stub for 64-bit Graphics Output
    Protocol frame buffer addresses. (Matt Fleming)

  - Detect when the UEFI v2.5 EFI_PROPERTIES_TABLE feature is enabled
    in the firmware and set an efi.flags bit so the kernel knows when
    it can apply more strict runtime mapping attributes - Ard Biesheuvel

  - Auto-load the efi-pstore module on EFI systems, just like we
    currently do for the efivars module. (Ben Hutchings)

  - Add "efi_fake_mem" kernel parameter which allows the system's EFI
    memory map to be updated with additional attributes for specific
    memory ranges. This is useful for testing the kernel code that handles
    the EFI_MEMORY_MORE_RELIABLE memmap bit even if your firmware
    doesn't include support. (Taku Izumi)

Note: there is a semantic conflict between the following two commits:

  8a53554e12e9 ("x86/efi: Fix multiple GOP device support")
  ae2ee627dc87 ("efifb: Add support for 64-bit frame buffer addresses")

I fixed up the interaction in the merge commit, changing the type of
current_fb_base from u32 to u64.
