kernel/drivers/video/fbdev/gxt4500.c, branch linux-4.3.yHosts the 0x221E linux distro kernel.https://universe.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel/atom?h=linux-4.3.y2015-08-25T07:59:44Zdrivers/video/fbdev/gxt4500: Use pci_ioremap_wc_bar() to map framebuffer2015-08-25T07:59:44ZLuis R. Rodriguezmcgrof@suse.com2015-08-24T19:13:26Zurn:sha1:f3adccbd75831f3651ca6e2cbb83f27cd68a27c9
The driver doesn't use mtrr_add() or arch_phys_wc_add() but
since we know the framebuffer is isolated already on an
ioremap() we can take advantage of write combining for
performance where possible.
In this case there are a few motivations for this:
a) Take advantage of PAT when available.
b) Help with the goal of eventually using _PAGE_CACHE_UC over
_PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS on x86 on ioremap_nocache() (see commit
de33c442e titled "x86 PAT: fix performance drop for glx,
use UC minus for ioremap(), ioremap_nocache() and
pci_mmap_page_range()").

video: move fbdev to drivers/video/fbdev2014-04-17T05:10:19ZTomi Valkeinentomi.valkeinen@ti.com2014-02-13T13:31:38Zurn:sha1:f7018c21350204c4cf628462f229d44d03545254
The drivers/video directory is a mess. It contains generic video related
files, directories for backlight, console, linux logo, lots of fbdev
device drivers, fbdev framework files.
Make some order into the chaos by creating drivers/video/fbdev
directory, and move all fbdev related files there.
No functionality is changed, although I guess it is possible that some
subtle Makefile build order related issue could be created by this
patch.
