    Since the drivers probe call was changed from .init.text to .devinit.text
    in commit c2e13037e6794bd0d9de3f9ecabf5615f15c160b ("platform-drivers:
    move probe to .devinit.text in drivers/video") the fb_fix_screeninfo and
    fb_var_screeninfo structures must be changed from .init.data to
    .devinit.data, too.

    Also the drivers remove routine should be moved from .text to .devexit.text

    It removes these 7 section mismatch warnings from modpost:

  • c2e13037e   platform-drivers: move probe to .devinit.text in drivers/video ... Browse Code »

    A pointer to a probe callback is passed to the core via
    platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the
    .init sections are discarded. Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y)
    unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an
    oops as does a device being registered late.

    An alternative to this patch is using platform_driver_probe instead of
    platform_driver_register plus removing the pointer to the probe function
    from the struct platform_driver.

    No need for a file argument. If we'd really need it it's in vma->vm_file
    already. gbefb and sgivwfb used to set vma->vm_file to the file argument, but
    the kernel alrady did that.

  • c465e05a0   [PATCH] fbcon/fbdev: Move softcursor out of fbdev to fbcon ... Browse Code »

    According to Jon Smirl, filling in the field fb_cursor with soft_cursor for
    drivers that do not support hardware cursors is redundant. The soft_cursor
    function is usable by all drivers because it is just a wrapper around
    fb_imageblit. And because soft_cursor is an fbcon-specific hook, the file is
    moved to the console directory.

    Thus, drivers that do not support hardware cursors can leave the fb_cursor
    field blank. For drivers that do, they can fill up this field with their own
    version.

    The end result is a smaller code size. And if the framebuffer console is not
    loaded, module/kernel size is also reduced because the soft_cursor module will
    also not be loaded.

    Statically allocated devices in module data is a potential cause
    of oopsen. The device may be in use by a userspace process, which
    will keep a reference to the device. If the module is unloaded,
    the module data will be freed. Subsequent use of the platform
    device will cause a kernel oops.

    Use generic platform device allocation/release code in modules.

    Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
