Hi everybody,
Here's the third version of the FBIOPAN_DISPLAY fixes patch series.
As a reminder, while playing with the FBIOPAN_DISPLAY ioctl I noticed that many
drivers use information from the ioctl argument such as the display resolution
when they should use the current settings from the fb_info structure.
These 29 patches fix most of those drivers. Missing drivers are ivtv (for
which a patch has Andy Walls has already pushed a patch), sh_mobile_lcdcfb (for
which the fix is a bit more complex, I will work on it later) and viafb (for
which Florian Tobias Schandinat has already sent a patch).
The patches have been compile-tested on architectures for which I have a
working compiler (x86 and ARM) with allyesconfig. I don't own any hardware
supported by these drivers so I haven't been able to perform additional tests.
I've split the fixes in one patch per driver for easier review and handling of
potential problems. The patches can be squashed together if needed. I've tried
to CC individual driver maintainers when possible, and Acked-by lines received
in reply to the first version have been included.
Compared to v2, I've fixed a compile issue in the atmel_lcdfb driver and added
a couple of SoB lines.
Paul, is it time to push this for 3.1 ?

I have the v2 series queued up already, so it would be nice to simply
have the v2->v3 differences as incremental changes that can be piled on.
The signed-off-by lines are not that critical in this case since it's a
largely mechanical change all over the place, so it's primarily the build
fix(es?) that would be nice to have.

Ah. Next time please notify me when you queue the patches up. That was too
soon. This will end up potentially breaking bisections, which is never good.

I would say they are more than "nice to have". Where have you queued v2 ?

I've sent you a fix on top of your v2 series a while ago, and none of these
patches made it to v3.1-rc1.
Is fbdev maintained at all ?

Yes, it is :)
Well I already wrote to Paul because of this and got a response. Basically he
had to do other stuff/trees and felt that everything could go in after rc1 as well.
But if the situation persists that he has too much other stuff to do and no time
left for fbdev I'd be willing to take over maintaining the fbdev stuff.
So you may rest assured that your work will not be lost and at worst be merged
in the next merge window.
Best regards,
Florian Tobias Schandinat

Great :-)

he had to do other stuff/trees and felt that everything could go in after
rc1 as well.
I know how being overwhelmed with work feels, so I'm not blaming Paul at all.
As the last couple of e-mails I've sent him got no reply, and as the patches
haven't been pushed to v3.1-rc1, I wanted to check if he was still alive :-)
(or if a technical issue was preventing his replies for reaching me).
But if the situation persists that he has too much other stuff to do and no
time left for fbdev I'd be willing to take over maintaining the fbdev stuff.
So you may rest assured that your work will not be lost and at worst be
merged in the next merge window.
A delay of one merge window is OK in this case. I'm quite new to fbdev
development, and still trying to find out how this subsystem is maintained
(including how fast patches should be pushed, and how to submit urgent fixes
when required).
