* connector: make callback argument type explicitMike Frysinger2009-07-171-2/+1Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The connector documentation states that the argument to the callback function is always a pointer to a struct cn_msg, but rather than encode it in the API itself, it uses a void pointer everywhere. This doesn't make much sense to encode the pointer in documentation as it prevents proper C type checking from occurring and can easily allow people to use the wrong pointer type. So convert the argument type to an explicit struct cn_msg pointer. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* uvesafb: improve parameter handling.Rusty Russell2009-06-121-6/+4Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) Now module_param(..., invbool, ...) requires a bool, and similarly module_param(..., bool, ...) allows it, change pmi_setpal to a bool. 2) #define param_get_scroll to NULL, since it can never be called (perm argument to module_param_named is 0). 3) Return -EINVAL from param_set_scroll if the value is bad, so it's reported. Note that I don't think the old fb_get_options() is required for new drivers: the parameters automatically work as uvesafb.XXX=... anyway.

* uvesafb: fix color component length for pseudocolor modesMichal Januszewski2009-04-141-25/+10Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | uvesafb incorrectly sets the length of the color fields to 6 bits for PSEUDOCOLOR modes, even though 8 bits are always used per pixel. Fix this by setting the length to 8. The switch of the DAC width from the default 6 bits to 8 bits is retained and tracked internally in the driver, but never exposed to userspace.

* uvesafb: fix selecting mode with the vbemode optionMichal Januszewski2009-04-011-4/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the vbemode option is used, uvesafb calls fb_get_mode() without first setting the resolution in info->var. This results in a division by zero in fb_get_mode(), as evidenced e.g. in [1]. Fix this by ensuring the info->var structure is populated before fb_get_mode() is called.

* netlink: change return-value logic of netlink_broadcast()Pablo Neira Ayuso2009-02-061-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, netlink_broadcast() reports errors to the caller if no messages at all were delivered: 1) If, at least, one message has been delivered correctly, returns 0. 2) Otherwise, if no messages at all were delivered due to skb_clone() failure, return -ENOBUFS. 3) Otherwise, if there are no listeners, return -ESRCH. With this patch, the caller knows if the delivery of any of the messages to the listeners have failed: 1) If it fails to deliver any message (for whatever reason), return -ENOBUFS. 2) Otherwise, if all messages were delivered OK, returns 0. 3) Otherwise, if no listeners, return -ESRCH. In the current ctnetlink code and in Netfilter in general, we can add reliable logging and connection tracking event delivery by dropping the packets whose events were not successfully delivered over Netlink. Of course, this option would be settable via /proc as this approach reduces performance (in terms of filtered connections per seconds by a stateful firewall) but providing reliable logging and event delivery (for conntrackd) in return. This patch also changes some clients of netlink_broadcast() that may report ENOBUFS errors via printk. This error handling is not of any help. Instead, the userspace daemons that are listening to those netlink messages should resync themselves with the kernel-side if they hit ENOBUFS. BTW, netlink_broadcast() clients include those that call cn_netlink_send(), nlmsg_multicast() and genlmsg_multicast() since they internally call netlink_broadcast() and return its error value.

* uvesafb: don't treat mode info retrieval failures as errorsMichal Januszewski2008-10-161-3/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some BIOSes return error codes when queried for information about modes from their own modelist. uvesafb treats this as an error case and bails out. Change this behavior so that broken modes do not prevent the driver from working. Only the failure to retrieve information about any usable video mode is considered to be an error case.

* uvesafb: don't treat valid modes returned byfb_find_mode() as errorsMichal Januszewski2008-04-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't treat valid modes returned by fb_find_mode() (best-fit modes, default modes or the first valid mode) as errors. Currently, when fb_find_mode() finds a valid mode belonging to one of the above-mentioned classes, uvesafb will ignore it and will try to set a 640x480 video mode. The expected behaviour (introduced by this patch) would be to use the valid mode returned by fb_find_mode() instead. Signed-off-by: Michal Januszewski <spock@gentoo.org> Cc: "Antonino A.

* uvesafb: the driver coreMichal Januszewski2007-10-161-0/+2066
uvesafb is an enhanced version of vesafb. It uses a userspace helper (v86d) to execute calls to the x86 Video BIOS functions. The driver is not limited to any specific arch and whether it works on a given arch or not depends on that arch being supported by the userspace daemon. It has been tested on x86_32 and x86_64. A single BIOS call is represented by an instance of the uvesafb_ktask structure. This structure contains a buffer, a completion struct and a uvesafb_task substructure, containing the values of the x86 registers, a flags field and a field indicating the length of the buffer. Whenever a BIOS call is made in the driver, uvesafb_exec() builds a message using the uvesafb_task substructure and the contents of the buffer. This message is then assigned a random ack number and sent to the userspace daemon using the connector interface. The message's sequence number is used as an index for the uvfb_tasks array, which provides a mapping from the messages coming from userspace to the in-kernel uvesafb_ktask structs. The userspace daemon performs the requested operation and sends a reply in the form of a uvesafb_task struct and, optionally, a buffer. The seq and ack numbers in the reply should be exactly the same as those in the request. Each message from userspace is processed by uvesafb_cn_callback() and after passing a few sanity checks leads to the completion of a BIOS call request.
