2009-12-03fb-defio: If FBINFO_VIRTFB is defined, do not set VM_IO flag.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk1-1/+3
Most users (except sh_mobile_lcdcfb.c) get their framebuffer from vmalloc. Setting VM_IO is not necessary as the memory obtained from vmalloc is System RAM type and is not susceptible to PCI memory constraints.

2009-04-01mm: page_mkwrite change prototype to match faultNick Piggin1-1/+2
Change the page_mkwrite prototype to take a struct vm_fault, and return VM_FAULT_xxx flags. There should be no functional change. This makes it possible to return much more detailed error information to the VM (and also can provide more information eg. virtual_address to the driver, which might be important in some special cases). This is required for a subsequent fix. And will also make it easier to merge page_mkwrite() with fault() in future.

2008-12-22video: deferred io with physically contiguous memoryMagnus Damm1-5/+15
Extend the deferred io code from only supporting vmalloc()ed frame buffer memory to support both vmalloc()ed and physically contiguous frame buffer memory. The sh_mobile_lcdcfb hardware does not support scatter gather so we need physically contiguous memory to back our frame buffer.

Make sure the mmap callback is set to NULL in the deferred io cleanup function. This way we can enable and disable deferred io on the fly. Signed-off-by: Magnus Damm <damm@igel.co.jp> Acked-by: Jaya Kumar <jayakumar.lkml@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
2008-12-22video: fix deferred io fsync()Magnus Damm1-0/+4
If CONFIG_FB_DEFERRED_IO is set, but there are framebuffers registered that does not make use of deferred io, then fsync() on those framebuffers will result in a crash. Fix that. This is needed for sh_mobile_lcdcfb since we always enable deferred io at compile time but we may disable deferred io for some types of hardware configurations.

2008-08-20fbdefio: add set_page_dirty handler to deferred IO FBIan Campbell1-0/+19
Fixes kernel BUG at lib/radix-tree.c:473. Previously the handler was incidentally provided by tmpfs but this was removed with: commit 14fcc23fdc78e9d32372553ccf21758a9bd56fa1 Author: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Date: Mon Jul 28 15:46:19 2008 -0700 tmpfs: fix kernel BUG in shmem_delete_inode relying on this behaviour was incorrect in any case and the BUG also appeared when the device node was on an ext3 filesystem. v2: override a_ops at open() time rather than mmap() time to minimise races per AKPM's concerns.

2008-07-12fbdev: bugfix for multiprocess defioJaya Kumar1-1/+19
This patch is a bugfix for how defio handles multiple processes manipulating the same framebuffer. Thanks to Bernard Blackham for identifying this bug. It occurs when two applications mmap the same framebuffer and concurrently write to the same page. Normally, this doesn't occur since only a single process mmaps the framebuffer. The symptom of the bug is that the mapping applications will hang. The cause is that defio incorrectly tries to add the same page twice to the pagelist. The solution I have is to walk the pagelist and check for a duplicate before adding. Since I needed to walk the pagelist, I now also keep the pagelist in sorted order.

2008-03-19fbdev: defio and MetronomefbJaya Kumar1-2/+20
Implement support for the E-Ink Metronome controller. It provides an mmapable interface to the controller using defio support. It was tested with a gumstix pxa255 with Vizplex media using Xfbdev and various X clients such as xeyes, xpdf, xloadimage. This patch also fixes the following bug: Defio would cause a hang on write access to the framebuffer as the page fault would be called ad-infinitum. It fixes fb_defio by setting the mapping to be used by page_mkclean. Signed-off-by: Jaya Kumar <jayakumar.lkml@gmail.com> Cc: "Antonino A.

2007-05-08fb: fsync() method for deferred I/O flush.Paul Mundt1-0/+12
There are cases when we do not want to wait on the delay for automatically updating the "real" framebuffer, this implements a simple ->fsync() hook for explicitly flushing the deferred I/O work. The ->page_mkwrite() handler will rearm the work queue normally.

2007-05-08fbdev: mm: Deferred IO supportJaya Kumar1-0/+137
This implements deferred IO support in fbdev. Deferred IO is a way to delay and repurpose IO. This implementation is done using mm's page_mkwrite and page_mkclean hooks in order to detect, delay and then rewrite IO. This functionality is used by hecubafb. [adaplas] This is useful for graphics hardware with no directly addressable/mappable framebuffer. Implementing this will allow the "framebuffer" to be accesible from user space via mmap().
