fbdev: Split frame buffer support in FB and FB_CORE symbols

2023-07-22T10:25:04+00:00

Currently the CONFIG_FB option has to be enabled even if no legacy fbdev
drivers are needed (e.g: only to have support for framebuffer consoles).

The DRM subsystem has a fbdev emulation layer, but depends on CONFIG_FB
and so it can only be enabled if that dependency is enabled as well.

That means fbdev drivers have to be explicitly disabled if users want to
enable CONFIG_FB, only to use fbcon and/or the DRM fbdev emulation layer.

This patch introduces a non-visible CONFIG_FB_CORE symbol that could be
enabled just to have core support needed for CONFIG_DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION,
allowing CONFIG_FB to be disabled (and automatically disabling all the
fbdev drivers).

Nothing from fb_backlight.o and fbmon.o is used by the DRM fbdev emulation
layer so these two objects can be compiled out when CONFIG_FB is disabled.

sticon: make sticon_set_def_font() void and remove op parameter

2023-07-20T05:43:11+00:00

sticon_set_def_font() always returns 0, so make it void. And remove an
unused 'op' parameter.

vgacon: cache vc_cell_height in vgacon_cursor()

2023-07-20T05:43:11+00:00

There are many places c->vc_cell_height is used in the code of
vgacon_cursor(). Caching the value to a local variable makes the code
much easier to follow.

vgacon: let vgacon_doresize() return void

2023-07-20T05:43:11+00:00

The return value is neither used, nor vgacon_doresize() returns an
error. So change the reurn type to void.

video: Move HP PARISC STI core code to shared location

2023-04-20T08:04:51+00:00

STI core files have been located in console and fbdev code. Move
the source code and header to the directories for video helpers.
Also update the config and build rules such that the code depends
on the config symbol CONFIG_STI_CORE, which STI console and STI
framebuffer select automatically.

Cleans up the console makefile and prepares PARISC to implement
fb_is_primary_device() within the arch/ directory. No functional
changes.
