code duplication, and it also hands you the map pointer so you don't
need to re-find it.
- Remove the permanent maps flag. Instead, for register and framebuffer
maps, we always check whether there's already a map of that type and
offset around. Move the Radeon map initialization into presetup (first
open) so it happens again after every takedown.
- Remove the split cleanup of maps between driver takedown (last close) and
cleanup (module unload). Instead, always tear down maps on takedown,
and drivers can recreate them on first open.
- Make MGA always use addmap, instead of allocating consistent memory in
the PCI case and then faking up a map for it, which accomplished nearly
the same thing, in a different order. Note that the maps are exposed to
the user again: we may want to expose a flag to avoid this, but it's
not a security concern, and saves us a lot of code.
- Remove rmmaps in the MGA driver. Since the function is only called during
takedown anyway, we can let them die a natural death.
- Make removal of maps happen in one function, which is called by both
drm_takedown and drm_rmmap_ioctl.

zero does not mean no privs, instead it grants write access
_DRM_READ_ONLY only applies to non-root users. Problem is only in CVS,
initmaps are not in the kernel yet.

This patch adds serveral new ioctls and a new query to get_param query to
support PCI MGA cards.
Two ioctls were added to implement interrupt based waiting. With this
change, the client-side driver no longer needs to map the primary DMA
region or the MMIO region. Previously, end-of-frame waiting was done by
busy waiting in the client-side driver until one of the MMIO registers
(the current DMA pointer) matched a pointer to the end of primary DMA
space. By using interrupts, the busy waiting and the extra mappings are
removed.
A third ioctl was added to bootstrap DMA. This ioctl, which is used by the
X-server, moves a *LOT* of code from the X-server into the kernel. This
allows the kernel to do whatever needs to be done to setup DMA buffers.
The entire process and the locations of the buffers are hidden from
user-mode.
Additionally, a get_param query was added to differentiate between G4x0
cards and G550 cards. A gap was left in the numbering sequence so that,
if needed, G450 cards could be distinguished from G400 cards. According
to Ville Syrjälä, the G4x0 cards and the G550 cards handle
anisotropic filtering differently. This seems the most compatible way
to let the client-side driver know which card it's own. Doing this very
small change now eliminates the need to bump the DRM minor version
twice.

A number of ioctl handlers in linux-core were also modified so that they
could be called in-kernel. In these cases, the in-kernel callable
version kept the existing name (e.g., drm_agp_acquire) and the ioctl
handler added _ioctl to the name (e.g., drm_agp_acquire_ioctl).
This patch also replaces the drm_agp_do_release function with
drm_agp_release. drm_agp_release (drm_core_agp_release in the previous
patch) is very similar to drm_agp_do_release, and I saw no reason to
have both.
This commit *breaks the build* on BSD. Eric said that he would make the
required updates to the BSD side soon.
Xorg bug: 3259 Reviewed by: Eric Anholt
There were two problems. First, the 'warp' and 'primary' pointers weren't
cleared, so mga_do_cleanup_dma, which gets called multiple times, would
try to ioremapfree them multiple times. This resulted in the new error
messages to syslog. The second problem was the, since the dev_private
structure isn't reallocated and cleaned out in mga_do_init_dma, when
the server is reloaded idle-waits would wait for impossible values.
I have given this patch some more riggorous testing. This includes:
- Load module, start server, run GL app, stop server, unload module.
- Load module, start server, run GL app, stop server, unload module, reload
module, restart server, run GL app.
- Load module, start server, run GL app, stop server, restart server, run
GL app, stop server, unload module.
In all three cases, everything worked as expected. Please let me know if
there are any further regressions with this patch.
