drm/sysfb: corebootdrm: Add DRM driver for coreboot framebuffers 2026-02-20T13:38:24+00:00 Thomas Zimmermann tzimmermann@suse.de 2026-02-17T15:56:21+00:00 a29a1f0ec8d69ee917a9d4c84b844df0decff0ef Add corebootdrm, a DRM driver for coreboot framebuffers. The driver supports a pre-initialized framebuffer with various packed RGB formats. The driver code is fairly small and uses the same logic as the other sysfb drivers. Most of the implementation comes from existing sysfb helpers. Until now, coreboot relied on simpledrm or simplefb for boot-up graphics output. Initialize the platform device for corebootdrm in the same place in framebuffer_probe(). With a later commit, the simple-framebuffer should be removed. v4: - sort include statements (Tzung-Bi) v3: - comment on _HAS_LFB semantics (Tzung-Bi) - fix typo in commit description (Tzung-Bi) - comment on simple-framebuffer being obsolete for coreboot v2: - reimplement as platform driver - limit resources and mappings to known framebuffer memory; no page alignment - create corebootdrm device from coreboot framebuffer code Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javierm@redhat.com> Acked-by: Julius Werner <jwerner@chromium.org> Acked-by: Tzung-Bi Shih <tzungbi@kernel.org> # coreboot Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260217155836.96267-12-tzimmermann@suse.de

supports a pre-initialized framebuffer with various packed RGB formats.
The driver code is fairly small and uses the same logic as the other
sysfb drivers. Most of the implementation comes from existing sysfb
helpers.

Until now, coreboot relied on simpledrm or simplefb for boot-up graphics
output. Initialize the platform device for corebootdrm in the same place
in framebuffer_probe(). With a later commit, the simple-framebuffer should
be removed.

v4:
- sort include statements (Tzung-Bi)
v3:
- comment on _HAS_LFB semantics (Tzung-Bi)
- fix typo in commit description (Tzung-Bi)
- comment on simple-framebuffer being obsolete for coreboot
v2:
- reimplement as platform driver
- limit resources and mappings to known framebuffer memory; no
  page alignment
- create corebootdrm device from coreboot framebuffer code
