[PATCH] Remove MODULE_PARM

2006-03-25T16:22:52+00:00

MODULE_PARM was actually breaking: recent gcc version optimize them out as
unused.  It's time to replace the last users, which are generally in the
most unloved drivers anyway.

[PATCH] neofb: avoid resetting display config on unblank (v2)

2006-02-15T23:32:21+00:00

There were two mistakes in the register-read-on-(un)blank approach.

- First, without proper register (un)locking the value read back will always
  be zero, and this is what I missed entirely until just now.  Due to this,
  the logic could not be verified at all and I tried some bogus checks which
  are completely stupid.

- Second, the LCD status bit will always be set to zero when the backlight
  has been turned off.  Reading the value back during unblank will disable the
  LCD unconditionally, regardless of the state it is supposed to be in, since
  we set it to zero beforehand.

So this is what we do now:

- create a new variable in struct neofb_par, and use that to determine
  whether to read back registers (initialized to true)

- before actually blanking the screen, read back the register to sense any
  possible change made through Fn key combo

- use proper neoUnlock() / neoLock() to actually read something

- every call to neofb_blank() determines if we read back next time: blanking
  disables readback, unblanking (FB_BLANK_UNBLANK) enables it

This should give us a nice and clean state machine.  Has been thoroughly
tested on a Dell Latitude CPiA / NM220 Chip docked to a C/Dock2 with attached
CRT in all possible combinations of LCD/CRT on/off.  I changed the config via
Fn key, let the console blank, unblanked by keypress - works flawlessly.

[PATCH] Update cyblafb driver

2006-01-09T18:00:36+00:00

This is a major update to the cyblafb framebuffer driver. Most
of the stuff has been tested in the mm tree.

Main advantages:
============
  - vxres > xres support
  - ywrap and xpan support
  - much faster for almost all modes (e.g. 1280x1024-16bpp
     draws more than 41 full screens of text instead of about 25
     full screens of text per second on authors Epia 5000)
  - module init/exit code fixed
  - bugs triggered by console rotation fixed
  - lots of minor improvements
  - startup modes suitable for high performance scrolling
     in all directions

This diff  also contains a lot of white space fixes.

No side effects are possible, only one single graphics core is affected.

[PATCH] SharpSL: Abstract c7x0 specifics from Corgi Touchscreen driver

2005-09-13T15:22:31+00:00

Separate out the Sharp Zaurus c7x0 series specific code from the Corgi
Touchscreen driver.  Use the new functions in corgi_lcd.c via sharpsl.h for
hsync handling and pass the IRQ as a platform device resource.  Move a
function prototype into the w100fb header file where it belongs.

This enables the driver to be used by the Zaurus cxx00 series.
