From: Krzysztof Helt Date: Tue, 31 Mar 2009 22:25:40 +0000 (-0700) Subject: fbdev: remove cyblafb driver X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ddb53d48da5b0e691f35e703ac29118747f86c99;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git fbdev: remove cyblafb driver A tridentfb driver has all the functionality of the cyblafb driver without the bugs of the latter. Changes to the tridentfb driver: - FBINFO_READS_FAST added to the tridentfb. The cyblafb used a blitter for scrolling which is faster than color expansion on Cyberblade chipsets. The blitter is slower on a discrete Blade3D core. Use the blitter for scrolling in the tridentfb only for integrated Blade3D cores. Now, scrolling speed is about equal for the tridentfb and the cyblafb. - a copyright notice addition is done on request of Jani Monoses (the first author of the tridentfb). Tested on AGP Blade3D card and PCChips M787CLR motherboard: VIA C3 cpu + VT8601 north bridge (aka Cyberblade/i1).

Cyblafb will detect the video - mode selected and will use the geometry and timings found by - inspecting the hardware registers. - - video=cyblafb vga=0x317 - - Alternatively you might use a combination of the mode, ref and bpp - parameters. If you compiled the driver into the kernel, add something - like this to the kernel command line: - - video=cyblafb:1280x1024,bpp=16,ref=50 ... - - If you compiled the driver as a module, the same mode would be - selected by the following command: - - modprobe cyblafb mode=1280x1024 bpp=16 ref=50 ... - - None of the modes possible to select as startup modes are affected by - the problems described at the end of the next subsection. - - For all startup modes cyblafb chooses a virtual x resolution of 2048, - the only exception is mode 1280x1024 in combination with 32 bpp. This - allows ywrap scrolling for all those modes if rotation is 0 or 2, and - also fast scrolling if rotation is 1 or 3. The default virtual y reso- - lution is 4096 for bpp == 8, 2048 for bpp==16 and 1024 for bpp == 32, - again with the only exception of 1280x1024 at 32 bpp. - - Please do set your video memory size to 8 Mb in the Bios setup. Other - values will work, but performace is decreased for a lot of modes. - - Mode changes using fbset - ======================== - - You might use fbset to change the video mode, see "man fbset". Cyblafb - generally does assume that you know what you are doing. But it does - some checks, especially those that are needed to prevent you from - damaging your hardware. - - - only 8, 16, 24 and 32 bpp video modes are accepted - - interlaced video modes are not accepted - - double scan video modes are not accepted - - if a flat panel is found, cyblafb does not allow you - to program a resolution higher than the physical - resolution of the flat panel monitor - - cyblafb does not allow vclk to exceed 230 MHz. As 32 bpp - and (currently) 24 bit modes use a doubled vclk internally, - the dotclock limit as seen by fbset is 115 MHz for those - modes and 230 MHz for 8 and 16 bpp modes. - - cyblafb will allow you to select very high resolutions as - long as the hardware can be programmed to these modes. The - documented limit 1600x1200 is not enforced, but don't expect - perfect signal quality. - - Any request that violates the rules given above will be either changed - to something the hardware supports or an error value will be returned. - - If you program a virtual y resolution higher than the hardware limit, - cyblafb will silently decrease that value to the highest possible - value. The same is true for a virtual x resolution that is not - supported by the hardware. Cyblafb tries to adapt vyres first because - vxres decides if ywrap scrolling is possible or not. - - Attempts to disable acceleration are ignored, I believe that this is - safe. - - Some video modes that should work do not work as expected. If you use - the standard fb.modes, fbset 640x480-60 will program that mode, but - you will see a vertical area, about two characters wide, with only - much darker characters than the other characters on the screen. - Cyblafb does allow that mode to be set, as it does not violate the - official specifications. It would need a lot of code to reliably sort - out all invalid modes, playing around with the margin values will - give a valid mode quickly. And if cyblafb would detect such an invalid - mode, should it silently alter the requested values or should it - report an error? Both options have some pros and cons. As stated - above, none of the startup modes are affected, and if you set - verbosity to 1 or higher, cyblafb will print the fbset command that - would be needed to program that mode using fbset. - - -Other Parameters -================ - - -crt don't autodetect, assume monitor connected to - standard VGA connector - -fp don't autodetect, assume flat panel display - connected to flat panel monitor interface - -nativex inform driver about native x resolution of - flat panel monitor connected to special - interface (should be autodetected) - -stretch stretch image to adapt low resolution modes to - higer resolutions of flat panel monitors - connected to special interface - -center center image to adapt low resolution modes to - higer resolutions of flat panel monitors - connected to special interface - -memsize use if autodetected memsize is wrong ... - should never be necessary - -nopcirr disable PCI read retry -nopciwr disable PCI write retry -nopcirb disable PCI read bursts -nopciwb disable PCI write bursts - -bpp bpp for specified modes - valid values: 8 || 16 || 24 || 32 - -ref refresh rate for specified mode - valid values: 50 <= ref <= 85 - -mode 640x480 or 800x600 or 1024x768 or 1280x1024 - if not specified, the startup mode will be detected - and used, so you might also use the vga=??? parameter - described in vesafb.txt.

After that there -were a lot of cosmetic changes to increase the readability of the code. All -register names were changed to those mnemonics used in the datasheet. Function -and macro names were changed if they hindered easy understanding of the code. - -After that I debugged the code and implemented some new features. I'll try to -give a little summary of the main changes: - - - calculation of vertical and horizontal timings was fixed - - - video signal quality has been improved dramatically - - - acceleration: - - - fillrect and copyarea were fixed and reenabled - - - color expanding imageblit was newly implemented, color - imageblit (only used to draw the penguine) still uses the - generic code. - - - init of the acceleration engine was improved and moved to a - place where it really works ... - - - sync function has a timeout now and tries to reset and - reinit the accel engine if necessary - - - fewer slow copyarea calls when doing ypan scrolling by using - undocumented bit d21 of screen start address stored in - CR2B[5]. BIOS does use it also, so this should be safe. - - - cyblafb rejects any attempt to set modes that would cause vclk - values above reasonable 230 MHz. 32bit modes use a clock - multiplicator of 2, so fbset does show the correct values for - pixclock but not for vclk in this case. The fbset limit is 115 MHz - for 32 bpp modes. - - - cyblafb rejects modes known to be broken or unimplemented (all - interlaced modes, all doublescan modes for now) - - - cyblafb now works independant of the video mode in effect at startup - time (tridentfb does not init all needed registers to reasonable - values) - - - switching between video modes does work reliably now - - - the first video mode now is the one selected on startup using the - vga=???? mechanism or any of - - 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x1024 - - 8, 16, 24 or 32 bpp - - refresh between 50 Hz and 85 Hz, 1 Hz steps (1280x1024-32 - is limited to 63Hz) - - - pci retry and pci burst mode are settable (try to disable if you - experience latency problems) - - - built as a module cyblafb might be unloaded and reloaded using - the vfb module and con2vt or might be used together with vesafb - diff --git a/drivers/video/Kconfig b/drivers/video/Kconfig index c19f6feb4e53..db7a4f42edad 100644 --- a/drivers/video/Kconfig +++ b/drivers/video/Kconfig @@ -1597,30 +1597,6 @@ config FB_VT8623 Driver for CastleRock integrated graphics core in the VIA VT8623 [Apollo CLE266] chipset. -config FB_CYBLA - tristate "Cyberblade/i1 support" - depends on FB && PCI && X86_32 && !64BIT - select FB_CFB_IMAGEBLIT - ---help--- - This driver is supposed to support the Trident Cyberblade/i1 - graphics core integrated in the VIA VT8601A North Bridge, - also known as VIA Apollo PLE133. - - Status: - - Developed, tested and working on EPIA 5000 and EPIA 800. - - Does work reliable on all systems with CRT/LCD connected to - normal VGA ports. - - Should work on systems that do use the internal LCD port, but - this is absolutely not tested. - - Character imageblit, copyarea and rectangle fill are hw accelerated, - ypan scrolling is used by default. - - Please do read . - - To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the - module will be called cyblafb. - config FB_TRIDENT tristate "Trident support" depends on FB && PCI @@ -1633,8 +1609,8 @@ config FB_TRIDENT and Blade XP.
