[PATCH 0/5] fbdev: Move framebuffer I/O helpers to <asm/fb.h>

From: Thomas Zimmermann
Date: Wed Apr 26 2023 - 09:04:30 EST


Fbdev provides helpers for framebuffer I/O, such as fb_readl(),
fb_writel() or fb_memcpy_to_fb(). The implementation of each helper
depends on the architecture. It's still all located in fbdev's main
header file <linux/fb.h>. Move all of it into each archtecture's
<asm/fb.h>, with shared code in <asm-generic/fb.h>.

The first patch a simple whitespace cleanup.

Until now, <linux/fb.h> contained an include of <asm/io.h>. As this
will go away patches 2 to 4 prepare include statements in the various
drivers. Source files that use regular I/O helpers, such as readl(),
now include <linux/io.h>. Source files that use framebuffer I/O
helpers, such as fb_readl(), now include <asm/fb.h>. The latter now
includes <linux/io.h> internally.

Patch 5 moves the framebuffer I/O helpers from <linux/fb.h> into
the various architecture headers. The common case, where the framebuffer
is located in I/O memory, serves as the generic implemenation.

The patchset has been built for a variety of platforms, such as x86-64,
arm, aarch64, ppc64, parisc, m64k, mips and sparc.

Thomas Zimmermann (5):
fbdev/matrox: Remove trailing whitespaces
ipu-v3: Include <linux/io.h>
fbdev: Include <linux/io.h> in various drivers
fbdev: Include <linux/io.h> via <asm/fb.h>
fbdev: Move framebuffer I/O helpers into <asm/fb.h>
