linux.git/drivers/video/fbdev/core/fb_io_fops.c, branch v6.7 Linux kernel source tree fbdev: Provide I/O-memory helpers as module 2023-10-19T07:47:54+00:00 Thomas Zimmermann tzimmermann@suse.de 2023-09-27T07:26:34+00:00 6b180f66c0dd6266eeb2f74b59ee79a9f14fe430 Provide helpers for accessing I/O memory in a helper module. The fbdev core uses these helpers, so select the module unconditionally for fbdev. Drivers will later be able to select the module individually and the helpers will become optional.

fbdev: Move I/O read and write code into helper functions 2023-05-08T13:28:34+00:00 Thomas Zimmermann tzimmermann@suse.de 2023-04-28T12:24:51+00:00 6121cd9ef911432b14c2a17aefaf8cd2f3cfcdff Move the existing I/O read and write code for I/O memory into the new helpers fb_cfb_read() and fb_cfb_write(). Make them the default fp_ops. No functional changes. In the near term, the new functions will be useful to the DRM subsystem, which currently provides it's own implementation. It can then use the shared code. In the longer term, it might make sense to revise the I/O helper's default status and make them opt-in by the driver.
