[patch added to 3.12-stable] x86/sysfb_efi: Fix valid BAR address range check

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

 



From: Wang YanQing <udknight@xxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit c10fcb14c7afd6688c7b197a814358fecf244222 upstream.

The code for checking whether a BAR address range is valid will break
out of the loop when a start address of 0x0 is encountered.

This behaviour is wrong since by breaking out of the loop we may miss
the BAR that describes the EFI frame buffer in a later iteration.

Because of this bug I can't use video=efifb: boot parameter to get
efifb on my new ThinkPad E550 for my old linux system hard disk with
3.10 kernel. In 3.10, efifb is the only choice due to DRM/I915 not
supporting the GPU.

This patch also add a trivial optimization to break out after we find
the frame buffer address range without testing later BARs.
