[PATCH v3] simplefb: Enable boot time VESA graphic mode selection.

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

 



Since switch to simplefb/simpledrm VESA graphic modes are no longer
available with legacy BIOS.

The x86 realmode boot code enables the VESA graphic modes when option
FB_BOOT_VESA_SUPPORT is enabled.

To enable use of VESA modes with simplefb in legacy BIOS boot mode drop
dependency of BOOT_VESA_SUPPORT on FB, also drop the FB_ prefix, and
select the option when simplefb enabled on x86.

The BOOT_VESA_SUPPORT is not specific to framebuffer but rather to x86
platform, move it from fbdev to x86 Kconfig.

Fixes: e3263ab389a7 ("x86: provide platform-devices for boot-framebuffers")

v2: Select BOOT_VESA_SUPPORT from simplefb rather than simpledrm. The
simpledrm driver uses the firmware provided video modes only indirectly
through simplefb, and both can be enabled independently.
v3: Move BOOT_VESA_SUPPORT from fbdev to x86
