drivers/video: implement a simple framebuffer driver

2013-05-24T23:22:51Z

A simple frame-buffer describes a raw memory region that may be rendered to, with the assumption that the display hardware has already been set up to scan out from that buffer. This is useful in cases where a bootloader exists and has set up the display hardware, but a Linux driver doesn't yet exist for the display hardware. Examples use-cases include: * The built-in LCD panels on the Samsung ARM chromebook, and Tegra devices, and likely many other ARM or embedded systems. These cannot yet be supported using a full graphics driver, since the panel control should be provided by the CDF (Common Display Framework), which has been stuck in design/review for quite some time. One could support these panels using custom SoC-specific code, but there is a desire to use common infra-structure rather than having each SoC vendor invent their own code, hence the desire to wait for CDF. * Hardware for which a full graphics driver is not yet available, and the path to obtain one upstream isn't yet clear. For example, the Raspberry Pi. * Any hardware in early stages of upstreaming, before a full graphics driver has been tackled. This driver can provide a graphical boot console (even full X support) much earlier in the upstreaming process, thus making new SoC or board support more generally useful earlier.

2013-04-30T01:28:19Z

Enable supporting the DT structure of LP855x family devices. If the platform data is NULL, the driver tries to parse a DT structure. Then, the platform data is copied from the DT.

of/documentation: move video device bindings to a common place

2013-04-16T12:42:38Z

Binding Documents for drm-devices are placed in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/drm/*. But these devices are common for v4l framework, hence moved to a common place at Documentation/devicetree/bindings/video/. 'exynos_' prefix is added to associate them with exynos soc series.

video: fb: vt8500: Convert framebuffer drivers to standardized binding

2013-04-04T10:07:34Z

Now that a display timing binding is available, convert our almost identical binding to use the standard binding. This patch converts the vt8500 and wm8505 framebuffer drivers and associated dts/dtsi files to use the standard binding as defined in bindings/video/display-timing.txt. There are two side-effects of making this conversion: 1) The fb node should now be in the board file, rather than the soc file as the display-timing node is a child of the fb node. 2) We still require a bits per pixel property to initialize the framebuffer for the different lcd panels. Rather than including this as part of the display timing, it is moved into the framebuffer node. I have also taken the opportunity to alphabetise the includes of each driver to avoid double-ups.
