ec81c9cc2f fbdev: efifb: section fixes
Remove 43 section mismatches by moving the two structures efifb_defined
and efifb_fix from .init.data to .devinit.data.

Also the two structure arrays dmi_system_table[] and dmi_list[] have been
moved from .data to .init.rodata and .init.data, which saves, if built-in,
some space.

On x86_64 'size -A' showed that these sections changed size:

efifb.o:
section                     size-old        size-new
.data                       1200            688
.init.data                  7840            512
.init.rodata                0               7568
.devinit.data               0               256

Total                       11927           11911

8a3bdfe6cd drivers/video/efifb.c: support framebuffer for NVIDIA 9400M in MacBook Pro 5,1
Description of patch:
---------------------

This is a patch for the EFI framebuffer driver to enable the framebuffer
of the NVIDIA 9400M as found in MacBook Pro (MBP) 5,1 and up.  The
framebuffer of the NVIDIA graphic cards are located at the following
addresses in memory:

9400M:    0xC0010000
9600M GT: 0xB0030000

The patch delivered right here only provides the memory location of the
framebuffer of the 9400M device.  The 9600M GT is not covered.  It is
assumed that the 9400M is used when powered up the MBP.

The information which device is currently powered and in use is stored in
the 64 bytes large EFI variable "gpu-power-prefs".  More specifically,
byte 0x3B indicates whether 9600M GT (0x00) or 9400M (0x01) is online.

The PCI bus IDs are the following:
9400M:    PCI 03:00:00
9600M GT: PCI 02:00:00

The EFI variables can be easily read-out and manipulated with "rEFIt", an
MBP specific bootloader tool.  For more information on how handle rEFIt
and EFI variables please consult "http://refit.sourceforge.net" and
"http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1076879.html".

IMPORTANT NOTE: The information on how to activate the 9400M device given
at "ubuntuforums.org" is not correct, since it states

gpu-power-prefs[0x3B] = 0x00 -> 9400M (PCI 02:00:00)
gpu-power-prefs[0x3B] = 0x01 -> 9600M GT (PCI 03:00:00)

Actually, the assignment of the values and the PCI bus IDs are swapped.

Suggestions:
------------

To cover framebuffers of both 9400M and 9600M GT, I would suggest to
implement a conditional on "gpu-power-prefs".  Depending on the value of
byte 0x3B, the according framebuffer is selected.  However, this requires
kernel access to the EFI variables.

c2e13037e6 platform-drivers: move probe to .devinit.text in drivers/video
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.

89f3f21990 efifb: fix framebuffer handoff
Commit 4410f39109 ("fbdev: add support for
handoff from firmware to hw framebuffers") didn't add fb_destroy
operation to efifb.  Fix it and change aperture_size to match size
passed to request_mem_region.

4410f39109 fbdev: add support for handoff from firmware to hw framebuffers
With KMS we have ran into an issue where we really want the KMS fb driver
to be the one running the console, so panics etc can be shown by switching
out of X etc.

However with vesafb/efifb built-in, we end up with those on fb0 and the
KMS fb driver on fb1, driving the same piece of hw, so this adds an fb
info flag to denote a firmware fbdev, and adds a new aperture base/size
range which can be compared when the hw drivers are installed to see if
there is a conflict with a firmware driver, and if there is the firmware
driver is unregistered and the hw driver takes over.

It uses new aperture_base/size members instead of comparing on the fix
smem_start/length, as smem_start/length might for example only cover the
first 1MB of the PCI aperture, and we could allocate the kms fb from 8MB
into the aperture, thus they would never overlap.

133bb070e9 efifb: exit if framebuffer address is invalid
efifb will attempt to ioremap a framebuffer even if its starting address
is 0, failing and causing an ugly backtrace in the process.  Exit before
probing if this is the case.

e14a685dfa efifb: dmi set video type
The current logic for dmi matching in efifb does not allow efifb to load
on all hardware that we can dmi match for.

For a real world example, boot with elilo (3.7 or 3.8 vanilla) and on a
Apple (MacBook) and EFI framebuffer driver will not load (you will have no
video).  This specific hardware is efi v1.10, so we have UGA and not GOP.
Without special bootloader magic (i.e.  extra elilo patches for UGA
graphics detection) no screen info will be passed to the kernel and as a
result efifb will not load.

This patch allows the dmi match to happen by moving it to earlier in
efifb_init, and sets the video type (in set_system) so that efifb can load
when we have a valid dmi match and already know the specifics of the
hardware.

Without this patch the efifb driver will fail to load in the event screen
info is not found and passed in by the bootloader, being that we will
never get to look for a dmi match.  A primary reason for matching with dmi
is because not all bootloaders detect the video info properly.  The
solution is that in the event of a dmi match, we should set
screen_info.orig_video_isVGA.  Most bootloaders fail to set screen info on
Apple hardware, and this is a big problem for people who use Apple
hardware.

Tested on a MacBook SantaRosa with elilo-3.8 (vanilla) and resolves the
issue, the dmi match now works, EFI framebuffer now loads and video works.

7c08c9ae0c efifb/imacfb consolidation + hardware support
Remove imacfb entirely, merging its DMI table into the (otherwise very
similar) efifb driver.  This also adds hardware support for many of the
newer Intel Apple hardware.  This has been fairly well tested; we've been
shipping it in Fedora for some time.

7c83172b98 x86_64 EFI boot support: EFI frame buffer driver
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.
