Ywrap has been working fine with amifb since ages (unless someone
broke it very
recently).     

We are talking about scrollmode = SCROLL_WRAP_MOVE ?
  

Try this patch.

 

It doesn´t help. I cecked the values for rows and vrows and believe that
they are ok.
To be sure that we are not talking about different things: How _should_
this mode
work? If I use ywrap, why is it called scroll_wrap_MOVE? It should not
be necessary
to move anything around  when using ywrap ...

You still have to, because the console can ask for a partial scroll.
For example, assume you have a screen of 20 lines, the console can, for
example, ask to scroll rows 5-10 up by 1 line to row 4-9, leave rows 0-3 and
11-19 in the same place. So fbcon will adjust the yoffset, but has to move
rows 0-3 and 11-19 so they appear stationary to the user.

However, if the request for scrolling is a screenful at at time (ie,
move entire screen contents up by 1 line), then I don't think any
bmoves will be called.  Here's a snippet from the fbcon_scroll
(comments are mine):

	if (t > 0) /* if top is at origin, do not move */
		fbcon_bmove(vc, 0, 0, count, 0, t,
			    vc->vc_cols);
	ywrap_up(vc, count); /* adjust yoffset */

	if (vc->vc_rows - b > 0) /* if bottom is at end, do not move */
		fbcon_bmove(vc, b - count, 0, b, 0,
			    vc->vc_rows - b,
			    vc->vc_cols);

P.S: Ywrapping is very old code, and I think Geert can explain the code
much better than I.
