[PATCH v3 3/3] efi: earlycon: Add support for generic framebuffers

Markuss Broks markuss.broks at gmail.com
Wed Dec 21 10:54:00 UTC 2022


Add early console support for generic linear framebuffer devices.
This driver supports probing from cmdline early parameters
or from the device-tree using information in simple-framebuffer node.
The EFI functionality should be retained in whole.
The driver was disabled on ARM because of a bug in early_ioremap
implementation on ARM and on IA64 because of lack of early_memremap_prot.
