Merge branch 'drm-next' of git://people.freedesktop.org/~airlied/linux

2013-07-09T23:04:31+00:00

Pull drm updates from Dave Airlie:
 "Okay this is the big one, I was stalled on the fbdev pull req as I
  stupidly let fbdev guys merge a patch I required to fix a warning with
  some patches I had, they ended up merging the patch from the wrong
  place, but the warning should be fixed.  In future I'll just take the
  patch myself!

  Outside drm:

  There are some snd changes for the HDMI audio interactions on haswell,
  they've been acked for inclusion via my tree.  This relies on the
  wound/wait tree from Ingo which is already merged.

  Major changes:

  AMD finally released the dynamic power management code for all their
  GPUs from r600->present day, this is great, off by default for now but
  also a huge amount of code, in fact it is most of this pull request.

  Since it landed there has been a lot of community testing and Alex has
  sent a lot of fixes for any bugs found so far.  I suspect radeon might
  now be the biggest kernel driver ever :-P p.s.  radeon.dpm=1 to enable
  dynamic powermanagement for anyone.

  New drivers:

  Renesas r-car display unit.

  Other highlights:

   - core: GEM CMA prime support, use new w/w mutexs for TTM
     reservations, cursor hotspot, doc updates
   - dvo chips: chrontel 7010B support
   - i915: Haswell (fbc, ips, vecs, watermarks, audio powerwell),
     Valleyview (enabled by default, rc6), lots of pll reworking, 30bpp
     support (this time for sure)
   - nouveau: async buffer object deletion, context/register init
     updates, kernel vp2 engine support, GF117 support, GK110 accel
     support (with external nvidia ucode), context cleanups.
   - exynos: memory leak fixes, Add S3C64XX SoC series support, device
     tree updates, common clock framework support,
   - qxl: cursor hotspot support, multi-monitor support, suspend/resume
     support
   - mgag200: hw cursor support, g200 mode limiting
   - shmobile: prime support
   - tegra: fixes mostly

  I've been banging on this quite a lot due to the size of it, and it
  seems to okay on everything I've tested it on."

lib: Move fonts from drivers/video/console/ to lib/fonts/

2013-06-28T08:28:22+00:00

Several drivers need font support independent of CONFIG_VT, cfr. commit
9cbce8d7e1dae0744ca4f68d62aa7de18196b6f4, "console/font: Refactor font
support code selection logic").
Hence move the fonts and their support logic from drivers/video/console/ to
its own library directory lib/fonts/.
This also allows to limit processing of drivers/video/console/Makefile to
CONFIG_VT=y again.

reservation: cross-device reservation support, v4

2013-06-28T02:02:15+00:00

This adds support for a generic reservations framework that can be
hooked up to ttm and dma-buf and allows easy sharing of reservations
across devices.

The idea is that a dma-buf and ttm object both will get a pointer
to a struct reservation_object, which has to be reserved before
anything is done with the contents of the dma-buf.

Changes since v1:
 - Fix locking issue in ticket_reserve, which could cause mutex_unlock
   to be called too many times.
Changes since v2:
 - All fence related calls and members have been taken out for now,
   what's left is the bare minimum to be useful for ttm locking conversion.
Changes since v3:
 - Removed helper functions too. The documentation has an example
   implementation for locking. With the move to ww_mutex there is no
   need to have much logic any more.

Merge branch 'for-next' of git://gitorious.org/kernel-hsi/kernel-hsi

2012-04-02T16:50:40+00:00

Pull HSI (High Speed Synchronous Serial Interface) framework from Carlos Chinea:
 "The High Speed Synchronous Serial Interface (HSI) is a serial
  interface mainly used for connecting application engines (APE) with
  cellular modem engines (CMT) in cellular handsets.

  The framework is currently being used for some people and we would
  like to see it integrated into the kernel for 3.3.  There is no HW
  controller drivers in this pull, but some people have already some of
  them pending which they would like to push as soon as this integrated.
  I am also working on the acceptance for an TI OMAP one, based on a
  compatible legacy version of the interface called SSI."

Ok, so it didn't get into 3.3, but here it is pulled into 3.4.

Several people piped up to say "yeah, we want this".
