[PATCH] backlight last round of fixes

2006-09-01T18:39:10Z

Fix some more problems (inverted use of semaphores in some places). He also moved my checks into within the protected section which is better. Signed-off-by: Michael Hanselmann Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt Cc: "Antonino A. Daplas" Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] fbdev: Fix crashes in various fbdev's blank routines

2006-08-31T04:21:55Z

The backlight changes that went in had a bug where they could cause the kernel to access an unitialized pointer when blanking if there is no backlight control on a machine. The bug affects atyfb, aty128fb, nvidiafb and rivafb. radeonfb seems to be ok. This fixes it. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] rivafb/nvidiafb: race between register_framebuffer and *_bl_init

2006-07-31T20:28:45Z

Since we now use the generic backlight infrastructure, I think we need to call rivafb_bl_init before calling register_framebuffer since otherwise rivafb_bl_init might race with the framebuffer layer already opening the device and setting up the video mode. In this case we might end up with a not yet fully intialized backlight (info->bl_dev still NULL) when calling riva_bl_set_power via rivafb_set_par/rivafb_load_video_mode and the kernel dies without any further notice during boot. This fixes booting current git on a PB 6,1. In this case radeonfb/atyfb would be affected too - I can fix that too but don't have any hardware to test this on. Cc: "Antonino A.
