* efifb: Skip DMI checks if the bootloader knows what it's doingMatthew Garrett2012-09-171-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The majority of the DMI checks in efifb are for cases where the bootloader has provided invalid information. However, on some machines the overrides may do more harm than good due to configuration differences between machines with the same machine identifier. It turns out that it's possible for the bootloader to get the correct information on GOP-based systems, but we can't guarantee that the kernel's being booted with one that's been updated to do so. Add support for a capabilities flag that can be set by the bootloader, and skip the DMI checks in that case. Additionally, set this flag in the UEFI stub code.

* x86, setup: Store the boot cursor stateMatthew Garrett2009-11-131-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | Add a field to store the boot cursor state and implement this for VGA on x86. This can then be used to set the default policy for the boot console.

* x86_64 EFI boot support: EFI frame buffer driverHuang, Ying2007-11-291-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds Graphics Output Protocol support to the kernel. UEFI2.0 spec deprecates Universal Graphics Adapter (UGA) protocol and only Graphics Output Protocol (GOP) is produced. Therefore, the boot loader needs to query the UEFI firmware with appropriate Output Protocol and pass the video information to the kernel. As a result of GOP protocol, an EFI framebuffer driver is needed for displaying console messages. The patch adds a EFI framebuffer driver. The EFI frame buffer driver in this patch is based on the Intel Mac framebuffer driver. The ELILO bootloader takes care of passing the video information as appropriate for EFI firmware. The framebuffer driver has been tested in i386 kernel and x86_64 kernel on EFI platform.

* Make asm-x86/bootparam.h includable from userspace.Rusty Russell2007-10-231-35/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | To actually write a bootloader (or, say, the lguest launcher) currently requires duplication of these structures. Making them includable from userspace is much nicer. We merge the common userspace-required definitions of e820_32/64.h into e820.h for export. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

| | | | | | | | | struct screen_info has unaligned members, it needs to be packed. In the process, fix the naming of some of the members, which don't belong in this structure but are part of it anyway. Signed-off-by: H.

* [PATCH] i386: Relocatable kernel supportEric W. Biederman2006-12-071-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch modifies the i386 kernel so that if CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is selected it will be able to be loaded at any 4K aligned address below 1G. The technique used is to compile the decompressor with -fPIC and modify it so the decompressor is fully relocatable. For the main kernel relocations are generated. Resulting in a kernel that is relocatable with no runtime overhead and no need to modify the source code. A reserved 32bit word in the parameters has been assigned to serve as a stack so we figure out where are running. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* [PATCH] vesafb: Fix incorrect logo colors in x86_64Antonino A. Daplas2006-04-111-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bugzilla Bug 6299: A pixel size of 8 bits produces wrong logo colors in x86_64. The driver has 2 methods for setting the color map, using the protected mode interface provided by the video BIOS and directly writing to the VGA registers. The former is not supported in x86_64 and the latter is enabled only in i386. Fix by enabling the latter method in x86_64 only if supported by the BIOS. If both methods are unsupported, change the visual of vesafb to STATIC_PSEUDOCOLOR.

* [PATCH] vesafb: Drop blank hookAntonino A. Daplas2006-01-101-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Bugzilla Bug 5351 "After resuming from S3 (suspended while in X), the LCD panel stays black . However, the laptop is up again, and I can SSH into it from another machine. I can get the panel working again, when I first direct video output to the CRT output of the laptop, and then back to LCD (done by repeatedly hitting Fn+F5 buttons on the Toshiba, which directs output to either LCD, CRT or TV) None of this ever happened with older kernels." This bug is due to the recently added vesafb_blank() method in vesafb. It works with CRT displays, but has a high incidence of problems in laptop users. Since CRT users don't really get that much benefit from hardware blanking, drop support for this.
