The user visible ioctl does this, but since we call into GEM internals
directly, we have to flush things ourselves. Fixes initial fb console
corruption.
This is an initial import of the atom bios parser with modesetting support
for r500 hw using atombios. It also includes a simple memory manager
layer that translates a radeon GEM style interface onto TTM internally.
So far this memory manager has only been used for pinned object allocation
for the DDX to test modesetting.
Normally when X is running, panic messages will be invisible and the machine
will just appear to hard hang. This patch adds support for switching back to
the fbcon framebuffer on panic (through the use of a panic notifier
registration) so we can see what happened.
Note that in order to be really useful, X will have to run its VT in something
other than KD_GRAPHICS mode. Also, not all kernel errors result in panics,
some go through BUG() which may trigger another type of event, not resulting in
a switch.
Use GEM for ring buffer setup and framebuffer allocation. This means reworking
the hardware status page stuff a bit (just use the basic range allocator for
vram for now) and #ifdef'ing out the TTM & DRI2 code. Works well enough to
load/unload several times and display fbcon on my T61 (though there's still
some unexplained console corruption).
Okay we have crtc, encoder and connectors.
No more outputs exposed beyond driver internals
I've broken intel tv connector stuff.
Really for TV we should have one TV connector, with a sub property for the
type of signal been driven over it
This splits a lot of the core modesetting code out into a file of
helper functions, that are only called from themselves and/or the driver.
The driver gets called into more often or can call these functions from itself
if it is a helper using driver.
I've broken framebuffer resize doing this but I didn't like the API for that
in any case.
drm_crtc->fb may point to NULL, f.e X server will allocate a new fb
and assign it to the CRTC at startup, when X server exits, it will destroy
the allocated fb, making drm_crtc->fb points to NULL.
Allow mode to be set with fb_id set to -1, meaning set
the mode with the current fb (if we have one bound).
Allow intelfb to hook back up it's fb if modesetting
clears it (maybe temporary).
Move any crtc->fb related register changes to set_base
in intel_fb.
General intelfb cleanups.
