From 3c1ed51a43183ff976bd0ae37a19e038f967966a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Javier Martinez Canillas Date: Sun, 16 May 2021 09:48:33 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] drm/rockchip: remove existing generic drivers to take over the device There are drivers that register framebuffer devices very early in the boot process and make use of the existing framebuffer as setup by the firmware. If one of those drivers has registered a fbdev, then the fallback fbdev of the DRM driver won't be bound to the framebuffer console. To avoid that, remove any existing generic driver and take over the graphics device. By doing that, the fb mapped to the console is switched correctly from the early fbdev to the one registered by the rockchip DRM driver: [ 40.752420] fb0: switching to rockchip-drm-fb from EFI VGA Signed-off-by: Javier Martinez Canillas Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann Tested-by: Peter Robinson Acked-by: Thomas Zimmermann Acked-by: Heiko Stuebner Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20210516074833.451643-1-javierm@redhat.com --- drivers/gpu/drm/rockchip/rockchip_drm_drv.c | 10 ++++++++++ 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/rockchip/rockchip_drm_drv.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/rockchip/rockchip_drm_drv.c index 212bd87c0c4a..b730b8d5d949 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/rockchip/rockchip_drm_drv.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/rockchip/rockchip_drm_drv.c @@ -16,6 +16,7 @@ #include #include +#include #include #include #include @@ -114,6 +115,15 @@ static int rockchip_drm_bind(struct device *dev) struct rockchip_drm_private *private; int ret; + /* Remove existing drivers that may own the framebuffer memory. */ + ret = drm_aperture_remove_framebuffers(false, "rockchip-drm-fb"); + if (ret) { + DRM_DEV_ERROR(dev, + "Failed to remove existing framebuffers - %d.\n", + ret); + return ret; + } + drm_dev = drm_dev_alloc(&rockchip_drm_driver, dev); if (IS_ERR(drm_dev)) return PTR_ERR(drm_dev); -- 2.34.1
