git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab: - Media documentation is now split into admin-guide, driver-api and userspace-api books (a longstanding request from Jon); - The media Kconfig was reorganized, in order to make easier to select drivers and their dependencies; - The testing drivers now has a separate directory; - added a new driver for Rockchip Video Decoder IP; - The atomisp staging driver was resurrected. It is meant to work with 4 generations of cameras on Atom-based laptops, tablets and cell phones. So, it seems worth investing time to cleanup this driver and making it in good shape. - Added some V4L2 core ancillary routines to help with h264 codecs; - Added an ov2740 image sensor driver; - The si2157 gained support for Analog TV, which, in turn, added support for some cx231xx and cx23885 boards to also support analog standards; - Added some V4L2 controls (V4L2_CID_CAMERA_ORIENTATION and V4L2_CID_CAMERA_SENSOR_ROTATION) to help identifying where the camera is located at the device; - VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT was extended to support MC-centric devices; - Lots of drivers improvements and cleanups. * tag 'media/v5.8-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media: (503 commits) media: Documentation: media: Refer to mbus format documentation from CSI-2 docs media: s5k5baf: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array media: i2c: imx219: Drop <linux/clk-provider.h> and <linux/clkdev.h> media: i2c: Add ov2740 image sensor driver media: ov8856: Implement sensor module revision identification media: ov8856: Add devicetree support media: dt-bindings: ov8856: Document YAML bindings media: dvb-usb: Add Cinergy S2 PCIe Dual Port support media: dvbdev: Fix tuner->demod media controller link media: dt-bindings: phy: phy-rockchip-dphy-rx0: move rockchip dphy rx0 bindings out of staging media: staging: dt-bindings: phy-rockchip-dphy-rx0: remove non-used reg property media: atomisp: unify the version for isp2401 a0 and b0 versions media: atomisp: update TODO with the current data media: atomisp: adjust some code at sh_css that could be broken media: atomisp: don't produce errs for ignored IRQs media: atomisp: print IRQ when debugging media: atomisp: isp_mmu: don't use kmem_cache media: atomisp: add a notice about possible leak resources media: atomisp: disable the dynamic and reserved pools media: atomisp: turn on camera before setting it ...

2020-04-14media: docs: move uAPI book to userspace-api/mediaMauro Carvalho Chehab1-2/+2
Since 2017, there is an space reserved for userspace API, created by changeset 1d596dee3862 ("docs: Create a user-space API guide"). As the media subsystem was one of the first subsystems to use Sphinx, until this patch, we were keeping things on a separate place. Let's just use the new location, as having all uAPI altogether will likely make things easier for developers. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>

2019-12-16drm/modes: parse_cmdline: Add support for specifying panel_orientation (v2)Hans de Goede1-0/+3
Sometimes we want to override a connector's panel_orientation from the kernel commandline. Either for testing and for special cases, e.g. a kiosk like setup which uses a TV mounted in portrait mode. Users can already specify a "rotate" option through a video= kernel cmdline option. But that only supports 0/180 degrees (see drm_client_modeset TODO) and only works for in kernel modeset clients, not for userspace kms users. The "panel-orientation" connector property OTOH does support 90/270 degrees as it leaves dealing with the rotation up to userspace and this does work for userspace kms clients (at least those which support this property).

2019-07-15docs: add some directories to the main documentation indexMauro Carvalho Chehab1-1/+1
The contents of those directories were orphaned at the documentation body. While those directories could likely be moved to be inside some guide, I'm opting to just adding their indexes to the main one, removing the :orphan: and adding the SPDX header. For the drivers, the rationale is that the documentation contains a mix of Kernelspace, uAPI and admin-guide. So, better to keep them on separate directories, as we've be doing with similar subsystem-specific docs that were not split yet. For the others, well... I'm too lazy to do the move. Also, it seems to make sense to keep at least some of those at the main dir (like kbuild, for example). In any case, a latter patch could do the move.

Rotations and reflections setup are needed in some scenarios to initialise properly the initial framebuffer.

2018-09-10Drop all 00-INDEX files from Documentation/Henrik Austad1-75/+0
This is a respin with a wider audience (all that get_maintainer returned) and I know this spams a *lot* of people. Not sure what would be the correct way, so my apologies for ruining your inbox. The 00-INDEX files are supposed to give a summary of all files present in a directory, but these files are horribly out of date and their usefulness is brought into question. Often a simple "ls" would reveal the same information as the filenames are generally quite descriptive as a short introduction to what the file covers (it should not surprise anyone what Documentation/sched/sched-design-CFS.txt covers) A few years back it was mentioned that these files were no longer really needed, and they have since then grown further out of date, so perhaps it is time to just throw them out. A short status yields the following _outdated_ 00-INDEX files, first counter is files listed in 00-INDEX but missing in the directory, last is files present but not listed in 00-INDEX. List of outdated 00-INDEX: Documentation: (4/10) Documentation/sysctl: (0/1) Documentation/timers: (1/0) Documentation/blockdev: (3/1) Documentation/w1/slaves: (0/1) Documentation/locking: (0/1) Documentation/devicetree: (0/5) Documentation/power: (1/1) Documentation/powerpc: (0/5) Documentation/arm: (1/0) Documentation/x86: (0/9) Documentation/x86/x86_64: (1/1) Documentation/scsi: (4/4) Documentation/filesystems: (2/9) Documentation/filesystems/nfs: (0/2) Documentation/cgroup-v1: (0/2) Documentation/kbuild: (0/4) Documentation/spi: (1/0) Documentation/virtual/kvm: (1/0) Documentation/scheduler: (0/2) Documentation/fb: (0/1) Documentation/block: (0/1) Documentation/networking: (6/37) Documentation/vm: (1/3) Then there are 364 subdirectories in Documentation/ with several files that are missing 00-INDEX alltogether (and another 120 with a single file and no 00-INDEX). I don't really have an opinion to whether or not we /should/ have 00-INDEX, but the above 00-INDEX should either be removed or be kept up to date. If we should keep the files, I can try to keep them updated, but I rather not if we just want to delete them anyway.

2018-06-28console/fbcon: Add support for deferred console takeoverHans de Goede1-0/+7
Currently fbcon claims fbdevs as soon as they are registered and takes over the console as soon as the first fbdev gets registered. This behavior is undesirable in cases where a smooth graphical bootup is desired, in such cases we typically want the contents of the framebuffer (typically a vendor logo) to stay in place as is. The current solution for this problem (on embedded systems) is to not enable fbcon. This commit adds a new FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER config option, which when enabled defers fbcon taking over the console from the dummy console until the first text is displayed on the console. Together with the "quiet" kernel commandline option, this allows fbcon to still be used together with a smooth graphical bootup, having it take over the console as soon as e.g. an error message is logged. Note the choice to detect the first console output in the dummycon driver, rather then handling this entirely inside the fbcon code, was made after 2 failed attempts to handle this entirely inside the fbcon code. The fbcon code is woven quite tightly into the console code, making this to only feasible option.

2017-08-18fbcon: add fbcon=margin:<color> command line optionDavid Lechner1-0/+7
This adds a new command line option to select the fbcon margin color. The motivation for this is screens where black does not blend into the physical surroundings of the screen. For example, using an LCD (not the backlit kind), white text on a black background is hard to read, so inverting the colors is preferred. However, when you do this, most of the screen is filled with white but the margins are still filled with black. This makes a big, black, backwards 'L' on the screen. By setting fbcon=margin:7, the margins will be filled with white and the LCD looks as expected.

2017-07-31efifb: allow user to disable write combined mapping.Dave Airlie1-0/+6
This patch allows the user to disable write combined mapping of the efifb framebuffer console using an nowc option. A customer noticed major slowdowns while logging to the console with write combining enabled, on other tasks running on the same CPU. (10x or greater slow down on all other cores on the same CPU as is doing the logging). I reproduced this on a machine with dual CPUs. Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2609 v3 @ 1.90GHz (6 core) I wrote a test that just mmaps the pci bar and writes to it in a loop, while this was running in the background one a single core with (taskset -c 1), building a kernel up to init/version.o (taskset -c 8) went from 13s to 133s or so. I've yet to explain why this occurs or what is going wrong I haven't managed to find a perf command that in any way gives insight into this. 11,885,070,715 instructions # 1.39 insns per cycle vs 12,082,592,342 instructions # 0.13 insns per cycle is the only thing I've spotted of interest, I've tried at least: dTLB-stores,dTLB-store-misses,L1-dcache-stores,LLC-store,LLC-store-misses,LLC-load-misses,LLC-loads,\mem-loads,mem-stores,iTLB-loads,iTLB-load-misses,cache-references,cache-misses For now it seems at least a good idea to allow a user to disable write combining if they see this until we can figure it out. Note also most users get a real framebuffer driver loaded when kms kicks in, it just happens on these machines the kernel didn't support the gpu specific driver.

Pull drm updates from Dave Airlie: "Okay this is the big one, I was stalled on the fbdev pull req as I stupidly let fbdev guys merge a patch I required to fix a warning with some patches I had, they ended up merging the patch from the wrong place, but the warning should be fixed. In future I'll just take the patch myself! Outside drm: There are some snd changes for the HDMI audio interactions on haswell, they've been acked for inclusion via my tree. This relies on the wound/wait tree from Ingo which is already merged. Major changes: AMD finally released the dynamic power management code for all their GPUs from r600->present day, this is great, off by default for now but also a huge amount of code, in fact it is most of this pull request. Since it landed there has been a lot of community testing and Alex has sent a lot of fixes for any bugs found so far. I suspect radeon might now be the biggest kernel driver ever :-P p.s. radeon.dpm=1 to enable dynamic powermanagement for anyone. New drivers: Renesas r-car display unit. Other highlights: - core: GEM CMA prime support, use new w/w mutexs for TTM reservations, cursor hotspot, doc updates - dvo chips: chrontel 7010B support - i915: Haswell (fbc, ips, vecs, watermarks, audio powerwell), Valleyview (enabled by default, rc6), lots of pll reworking, 30bpp support (this time for sure) - nouveau: async buffer object deletion, context/register init updates, kernel vp2 engine support, GF117 support, GK110 accel support (with external nvidia ucode), context cleanups. - exynos: memory leak fixes, Add S3C64XX SoC series support, device tree updates, common clock framework support, - qxl: cursor hotspot support, multi-monitor support, suspend/resume support - mgag200: hw cursor support, g200 mode limiting - shmobile: prime support - tegra: fixes mostly I've been banging on this quite a lot due to the size of it, and it seems to okay on everything I've tested it on." * 'drm-next' of git://people.freedesktop.org/~airlied/linux: (811 commits) drm/radeon/dpm: implement vblank_too_short callback for si drm/radeon/dpm: implement vblank_too_short callback for cayman drm/radeon/dpm: implement vblank_too_short callback for btc drm/radeon/dpm: implement vblank_too_short callback for evergreen drm/radeon/dpm: implement vblank_too_short callback for 7xx drm/radeon/dpm: add checks against vblank time drm/radeon/dpm: add helper to calculate vblank time drm/radeon: remove stray line in old pm code drm/radeon/dpm: fix display_gap programming on rv7xx drm/nvc0/gr: fix gpc firmware regression drm/nouveau: fix minor thinko causing bo moves to not be async on kepler drm/radeon/dpm: implement force performance level for TN drm/radeon/dpm: implement force performance level for ON/LN drm/radeon/dpm: implement force performance level for SI drm/radeon/dpm: implement force performance level for cayman drm/radeon/dpm: implement force performance levels for 7xx/eg/btc drm/radeon/dpm: add infrastructure to force performance levels drm/radeon: fix surface setup on r1xx drm/radeon: add support for 3d perf states on older asics drm/radeon: set default clocks for SI when DPM is disabled ...
2013-05-31uvesafb: Clean up MTRR codeAndy Lutomirski1-11/+5
The old code allowed very strange memory types. Now it works like all the other video drivers: ioremap_wc is used unconditionally, and MTRRs are set if PAT is unavailable (unless MTRR is disabled by a module parameter). UC, WB, and WT support is gone. If there are MTRR conflicts that prevent addition of a WC MTRR, adding a non-conflicting MTRR is pointless; it's better to just turn off MTRR support entirely. As an added bonus, any MTRR added is freed on unload.

2011-08-24udlfb: Enable fb_defio by defaultBernie Thompson1-8/+16
Enables page fault based detection of mmap writes to the framebuffer, which allows standard fbdev apps (like the generic fbdev xorg driver) to work on DisplayLink devices. Not all bugs are shaken out of the fb_defio path of udlfb, but it's tantalizingly close, so this seems a good time to enable by default. Alternatively, option can be disabled when running with an xorg driver that can more directly communicate damaged regions of the framebuffer via IOCTL. This is a simpler, higher perf option, when available. Signed-off-by: Bernie Thompson <bernie@plugable.com> Signed-off-by: Florian Tobias Schandinat <FlorianSchandinat@gmx.de>
2011-08-24udlfb: Add module option to do without shadow framebufferStuart Hopkins1-0/+5
By default, udlfb allocates a 2nd buffer to shadow what's across the bus on the USB device. It can operate without this shadow, but then it cannot tell which pixels have changed, and must send all. Saves host memory, but worsens the USB 2.0 bus bottleneck. This option allows users in very low memory situations (e.g. bifferboard) to optionally turn off this shadow framebuffer.

2011-07-25DRM: clean up and document parsing of video= parameterRolf Eike Beer1-3/+18
The video= parameter of the DRM drivers supports some additional flags that the normal fb drivers do not have. They also allow to limit these flags to specific outputs. Both things were previously undocumented. Also the parsing of the line had some oddities: -A lot of misplaced options were silently ignored or partly rejected instead of stopping the parsing immediately -The 'R' option is documented to follow the 'M' option if specified. It is not documented that 'M' is needed to specify 'R' (also this is the case for normal fb drivers). In fact the code is correct for normal fb drivers but wrong for DRM ones. The old code allowed 'R' only _before_ 'M' (since it parses backwards) and only if 'M' is given at all which is not needed for the DRM drivers. -the margins option ('m') was parsed but later ignored even if the later functions support it. -specifying multiple enable options at the same time did not lead to an error. -specifying something bogus for horizontal resolution (i.e. other things as digits) did not lead to an error but an invalid resolution was used. If any errors are encountered the position of the faulting string is now printed to the user and the complete mode is ignored. This gives much more consistent error behaviour. I also removed some useless assignments and changed the local flag variables to be bool. Signed-off-by: Rolf Eike Beer <eike-kernel@sf-tec.de> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>
