This still needs to be explained more, from my last mail: "The last put_fb_info() on fb_info should call ->fb_destroy (offb_destroy in our case) and remove_conflicting_framebuffers() is calling put_fb_info() so there is some extra reference on fb_info somewhere preventing it from going away.

Since the conflicts in region is due to OFfb explicitly refers to it. It seems that there may still be configurations when this is incorrect -> when offb drives primary (non-radeon) card and radeonfb drives secondary (radeon) card.. > drivers/video/fbdev/aty/radeon_base.c | 26 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > 1 file changed, 26 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/drivers/video/fbdev/aty/radeon_base.c b/drivers/video/fbdev/aty/radeon_base.c > index 4d77daeecf99..221879196531 100644 > --- a/drivers/video/fbdev/aty/radeon_base.c > +++ b/drivers/video/fbdev/aty/radeon_base.c > @@ -2259,6 +2259,22 @@ static const struct bin_attribute edid2_attr = { > .read = radeon_show_edid2, > }; > > +static int radeon_kick_out_firmware_fb(struct pci_dev *pdev) > +{ > + struct apertures_struct *ap; > + > + ap = alloc_apertures(1); > + if (!ap) > + return -ENOMEM; > + > + ap->ranges[0].base = pci_resource_start(pdev, 0); > + ap->ranges[0].size = pci_resource_len(pdev, 0); > + > + remove_conflicting_framebuffers(ap, KBUILD_MODNAME, false); > + kfree(ap); > + > + return 0; > +} > > static int radeonfb_pci_register(struct pci_dev *pdev, > const struct pci_device_id *ent) > @@ -2312,19 +2328,27 @@ static int radeonfb_pci_register(struct pci_dev *pdev, > rinfo->fb_base_phys = pci_resource_start (pdev, 0); > rinfo->mmio_base_phys = pci_resource_start (pdev, 2); > > + ret = radeon_kick_out_firmware_fb(pdev); > + if (ret) > + return ret; > + > /* request the mem regions */ > ret = pci_request_region(pdev, 0, "radeonfb framebuffer"); > if (ret < 0) { > +#ifndef CONFIG_FB_OF > printk( KERN_ERR "radeonfb (%s): cannot request region 0.\n", > pci_name(rinfo->pdev)); > goto err_release_fb; > +#endif > } > > ret = pci_request_region(pdev, 2, "radeonfb mmio"); > if (ret < 0) { > +#ifndef CONFIG_FB_OF > printk( KERN_ERR "radeonfb (%s): cannot request region 2.\n", > pci_name(rinfo->pdev)); > goto err_release_pci0; > +#endif > } > > /* map the regions */ > @@ -2509,10 +2533,12 @@ static int radeonfb_pci_register(struct pci_dev *pdev, > iounmap(rinfo->mmio_base); > err_release_pci2: > pci_release_region(pdev, 2); > +#ifndef CONFIG_FB_OF > err_release_pci0: > pci_release_region(pdev, 0); > err_release_fb: > framebuffer_release(info); > +#endif > err_disable: > err_out: > return ret; Best regards, -- Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz Samsung R&D Institute Poland Samsung Electronics _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
