2011-08-07viafb: get rid of the remaining modetable structure assumptionsFlorian Tobias Schandinat1-0/+2
This patch removes the remaining places where assumptions about the structure of the modetable were made. Aside from some places where assumptions are made that certain modes are in the modetable the only code dealing with the modetable and not just a single mode is in viamode. This will allow chaniging the modetable and use other sources for videomodes like the subsystem or EDID. Signed-off-by: Florian Tobias Schandinat <FlorianSchandinat@gmx.de>
2011-03-27viafb: some small cleanup for global variablesFlorian Tobias Schandinat1-4/+0
We do not need viafb_second{,_virtual}_{xres,yres} outside of viafbdev.c so move them there and eliminate the virtual ones where the only sane usage is done during initalization. Signed-off-by: Florian Tobias Schandinat <FlorianSchandinat@gmx.de>

2009-09-23viafb: hardware acceleration initialization cleanupFlorian Tobias Schandinat1-1/+0
The main motivation of this patch was to merge the three initialization functions in one and clean it up. However as some changes in other code areas where needed to do it right some small other changes were made. Changes to viafb_par: io_virt renamed as engine_mmio and moved to shared VQ_start renamed as vq_vram_addr and moved to shared VQ_end removed as it is easily recalculatable vq_vram_addr is not strictly needed but keep it to track where we allocated video memory. The memory allocated for the virtual queue was shrunk to VQ_SIZE as VQ_SIZE+CURSOR_SIZE looked like a bug to me. But to be honest I don't have the faintest idea what virtual queues are for in the graphic hardware and whether the driver needs them in any way. I only know that they aren't directly accessed by the driver and so the only potential current use would be as hardware internal buffers. For now keep them to avoid regressions and only remove the double cursor allocation. The most changes were caused by renames and the mentioned structure changes so the chance of regressions is pretty low. The meaning of viafb_accel changed slightly as previously it was changed back and forth in the code and allowed to enable the hardware acceleration by software if previously disabled. The new behaviour is that viafb_accel=0 always prevents hardware acceleration. With viafb_accel!=0 the acceleration can be freely choosen by set_var. This means viafb_accel is a diagnostic tool and if someone has to use viafb_accel=0 the driver needs to be fixed. As this is mostly a code cleanup no regressions beside the slightly change of viafb_accel is expected.

2009-09-23viafb: cleanup viafb_cursorFlorian Tobias Schandinat1-1/+0
Clean the hardware cursor handling up. The most notable change is that it no longer buffers the values in viacursor but uses the ones in cursor instead as they are guaranteed to be always valid. Furthermore it uses local instead global variables where possible, moves the cursor variable in shared as only one hardware cursor is supported and returns an error if memory allocation fails. Last but not least it fixes a too small buffer (as u32 has only 4 and not 32 bytes) but this did not produce any known problems. This is mostly a code cleanup, no negative runtime changes are expected.

2009-09-23viafb: clean up virtual memory handlingFlorian Tobias Schandinat1-1/+0
Clean the handling of ioremapped video memory up. The following changes were made: info->screen_base - viafb_FB_MM (VRAM offset calculation) was replaced by info->fix.smem_start - viafbinfo->fix.smem_start which is essentially the same calculation but done with physical instead virtual addresses. *->fbmem_virt was replaced by viafbinfo->screen_base This is true for viafbinfo and viafbinfo1 as the par pointers are equal. An early initialization of viafbinfo1->fix.smem* was removed as done later in viafb_setup_fixinfo. This patch highlights that the only usage of the ioremapped video memory in the driver is for hardware cursor handling. Even if it has to hold the used virtual screen mapped for old-fashioned read/write calls (vs. mmap'ed) a lot virtual memory could be saved by only ioremapping on demand. Code cleanup, no runtime changes expected.
