[PATCH v2 11/14] drm: add helpers to kick out firmware drivers

David Herrmann dh.herrmann at gmail.com
Thu Jul 4 05:25:11 PDT 2013


If we load a real hardware DRM driver, we want all firmware drivers to be
unloaded. Historically, this was done via
remove_conflicting_framebuffers(), but for DRM drivers (like SimpleDRM) we
need a new way.

This patch introduces DRIVER_FIRMWARE and DRM apertures to provide a quite
similar way to kick out firmware DRM drivers. Additionally, unlike the
fbdev equivalent, DRM firmware drivers can now query the system whether a
real hardware driver is already loaded and prevent loading themselves.

Whenever a real hardware DRM driver is loaded which claims to provide the
boot fw FB, we invalidate the firmware framebuffer. Otherwise, simpledrm
could be loaded again, after a real hw-driver was unloaded (which is
very unlikely to work, except if hw-drivers reset fw FBs during unload).
Note that fbdev doesn't provide such protection against late driver
probing.
