[PATCH] drm/vc4: Kick out the simplefb framebuffer before we set up KMS.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If we don't, then simplefb stays loaded on /dev/fb0 even though
scanout isn't happening from simplefb's memory area any more, and you
end up with no console.

Dave: It would be nice if I could merge this patch through
bcm2835-dt-next, where I'm trying to get the VC4 DT merged even though
the defconfig includes both VC4 and simplefb.  There aren't any
conflicts with anything I'm merging through drm-next.
