ddb53d48da fbdev: remove cyblafb driver
A tridentfb driver has all the functionality of the cyblafb driver without
the bugs of the latter.

Changes to the tridentfb driver:

- FBINFO_READS_FAST added to the tridentfb.  The cyblafb used a blitter
  for scrolling which is faster than color expansion on Cyberblade
  chipsets.  The blitter is slower on a discrete Blade3D core.  Use the
  blitter for scrolling in the tridentfb only for integrated Blade3D
  cores.  Now, scrolling speed is about equal for the tridentfb and the
  cyblafb.

- a copyright notice addition is done on request of Jani Monoses (the
  first author of the tridentfb).

Tested on AGP Blade3D card and PCChips
M787CLR motherboard: VIA C3 cpu +
VT8601 north  bridge (aka Cyberblade/i1).

0292be4a38 tridentfb: add imageblit acceleration for Blade3D family
Add imageblit acceleration for the Blade3D family of cores.  The code is
based on code from the cyblafb driver.

It is a step toward assimilating back the cyblafb driver into the
tridentfb driver.  The cyblafb driver handles a subfamily of the Trident
Blade3d cores.

6280fd4f9c tridentfb: Blade3D clock fixes
This patch fixes following problems:
- does not allow the m parameter to reach 0 as
  it locks the graphics core (power cycle needed)
- for the newer chips (with new clock registers)
  does not allow of n / m ratio below 4 as it gives
  unstable image on the Blade3D core
- extend shift parameter (k) range  to 2 for the newer
  chips to cope with the n /m >= 4 limit at low resolution
  (bandwidth) modes
- prefer modes with higher n / m ratio (higher k values)

13b0de49f5 tridentfb: fix console freeze when switching from X11
This patch fixes two problems when acceleration is enabled:

 - console switch from the Xorg locks up the computer
   because the Xorg code locks some registers and disables
   the mmio mode, so reenable these in the
   tridentfb_set_par() and enable_mmio()

 - blacklist the Image975 chipset from setting PCI burst
   mode. This helps with random lock ups of the
   framebuffer on this chip. The same fix is probably
   needed for the Xorg as well.

5cf138457a tridentfb: source code improvements
This patch contains general source code improvments:
 - more simple functions are inline
 - removes some meaningless output and the VERSION
   string as it is no use
 - eng_par is moved into the tridentfb_par
 - removed small section of code for CyberBladeXPAi1
   which is maybe right for only one resolution
   and refresh rate and is probably redundant now
 - other minor improvements

34dec24317 tridentfb: various pixclock and timing improvements
This patch fixes few issues related to timings and pixclock generation:

 - disallow the pixclocks with numerator lower than
   double denominator. This fixes display instability
   for some modes.
 - choose the pixelclock with the highest
   numerator and denominator values. This improve
   image quality and fixes display instability
   for some modes.
 - make interlaced modes work.
 - set synchronization pulses polarization
   correctly.
 - horizontal synchronization timing are now
   the same as generated by X.

 - initialization of acceleration is done later

49b1f4b44b tridentfb: acceleration code improvements
This patch brings various acceleration improvements:
- set  copyarea/fillrect for non-accelerated framebuffer (fix)
- remove 15 bpp depth handling to simplify code as it hardly
  works (15 bpp handling was obviously missing in some switches)
- add fb_sync call and move waiting before accelerated function
  to make acceleration more asynchronous to cpu (few % of speed
  improvement)
- add cpu_relax() call in waiting loops
- make longer register names and name more registers
- move registers' definition to header
- general code improvements (shortening, simplifying)

This patch completely remove random pixels ("snow") on the TGUI 9680 and

c465e05a03 [PATCH] fbcon/fbdev: Move softcursor out of fbdev to fbcon
According to Jon Smirl, filling in the field fb_cursor with soft_cursor for
drivers that do not support hardware cursors is redundant.  The soft_cursor
function is usable by all drivers because it is just a wrapper around
fb_imageblit.  And because soft_cursor is an fbcon-specific hook, the file is
moved to the console directory.

Thus, drivers that do not support hardware cursors can leave the fb_cursor
field blank.  For drivers that do, they can fill up this field with their own
version.

The end result is a smaller code size.  And if the framebuffer console is not
loaded, module/kernel size is also reduced because the soft_cursor module will
also not be loaded.

9fa68eae9f [PATCH] framebuffer: new driver for cyberblade/i1 graphics core
This is a framebuffer driver for the Cyberblade/i1 graphics core.

Currently tridenfb claims to support the cyberblade/i1 graphics core.  This
is of very limited truth.  Even vesafb is faster and provides more working
modes and a much better quality of the video signal.  There is a great
number of bugs in tridentfb ...  but most often it is impossible to decide
if these bugs are real bugs or if fixing them for the cyberblade/i1 core
would break support for one of the other supported chips.

Tridentfb seems to be unmaintained,and documentation for most of the
supported chips is not available.  So "fixing" cyberblade/i1 support inside
of tridentfb was not an option, it would have caused numerous
if(CYBERBLADEi1) else ...  cases and would have rendered the code to be
almost unmaintainable.

A first version of this driver was published on 2005-07-31.  A fix for a
bug reported by Jochen Hein was integrated as well as some changes
requested by Antonino A.  Daplas.

A message has been added to tridentfb to inform current users of tridentfb
to switch to cyblafb if the cyberblade/i1 graphics core is detected.

This patch is one logical change, but because of the included documentation
it is bigger than 70kb.  Therefore it is not sent to lkml and
linux-fbdev-devel,

8d894c4797 [PATCH] tridentfb: Fix scrolling artifacts during disk IO
Reported by: Jochen Hein (Bugzilla Bug 4312)

When there is disk I/O happening, the framebuffer has a little snow on
the screen.  Once I/O has finished, no garbage remains on screen.

This bug was explained by: Knut Petersen

Most important is CRTC register 2f, signal quality is also improved for
higher vclk values by changing set_vclk() according to the X drivers and
cyblafb.c

The fix is to set the performance register (0x2f) with a more stable
value.

8dad46cf38 [PATCH] tridentfb: Fix scrolling artifacts if acceleration is enabled
Reported by: Jochen Hein (Bugzilla Bug 4386)

booting leaves the end of long lines in the last line on screen when
scrolling.  When X is running, scrolling puts garbage on the screen
(looks like X data) Console switch fixes the screen.  Behaviour seems to
be identical with noaccel and without on the video=tridentfb parameter
in lilo.conf.

This bug was explained by: Knut_Petersen

Acceleration is broken for all BLADE 3D chips for all versions of kernel
2.6 except for 32bit modes.  Most important reason is that the u32 col
parameter of the graphics engine needs the color value replicated to all
u8 of the u32 (8bit modes) and to both u16 of the u32.

Fix color value passed to graphics engine, verified by the reporter.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
