[PATCH] fbcmap.c: mark structs const or __read_mostly

2006-12-08T16:29:05+00:00

- Mark the default colormaps read-only, as nobody should be allowed to
  modify them

- Additionally mark color values as __read_mostly since they will only be
  modified (very seldom) by fb_invert_cmaps()

- Add named C99-initializers in fb_cmap structs and use the ARRAY_SIZE()
  macro

Driver core: convert fb code to use struct device

2006-12-01T22:52:00+00:00

Converts from using struct "class_device" to "struct device" making
everything show up properly in /sys/devices/ with symlinks from the
/sys/class directory.

[PATCH] fbdev: Honor the return value of device_create_file

2006-10-03T15:04:10+00:00

Check the return value of device_create_file().  If return is 'fail', remove
attributes by calling device_remove_file().

[PATCH] fbdev: Add generic ddc read functionality

2006-10-03T15:04:09+00:00

Adds functionality to read the EDID information over the DDC bus in a generic
way.  This code is based on the DDC implementation in the radeon driver.

[adaplas]
- separate from fbmon.c and place in new file fb_ddc.c
- remove dependency to CONFIG_I2C and CONFIG_I2C_ALGOBIT, otherwise, feature
  will not compile if i2c support is compiled as a module
- feature is selectable only by drivers needing it. It must have a
  'select FB_DDC if xxx' in Kconfig
- change printk's to dev_*, the i2c people prefers it

[PATCH] fbdev: include backlight.h only when KERNEL is defined

2006-08-14T19:54:29+00:00

linux/backlight.h pulls in header files (eg.  ioport.h) that break
compilation of userspace programs.  To solve the problem, only include
backlight.h in fb.h if compiling kernel stuff.

[PATCH] fbdev: statically link the framebuffer notification functions

2006-07-31T20:28:44+00:00

The backlight and lcd subsystems can be notified by the framebuffer layer
of blanking events.  However, these subsystems, as a whole, can function
independently from the framebuffer layer.  But in order to enable to the
lcd and backlight subsystems, the framebuffer has to be compiled also,
effectively sucking in a huge amount of unneeded code.

To prevent dependency problems, separate out the framebuffer notification
mechanism from the framebuffer layer and permanently link it to the kernel.

[PATCH] vt: Remove VT-specific declarations and definitions from tty.h

2006-07-10T20:24:16+00:00

MAX_NR_CONSOLES, fg_console, want_console and last_console are more of a
function of the VT layer than the TTY one.  Moving these to vt.h and vt_kern.h
allows all of the framebuffer and VT console drivers to remove their
dependency on tty.h.
