<title>video: hyperv: hyperv_fb: Use physical memory for fb on HyperV Gen 1 VMs.</title>

On Hyper-V, Generation 1 VMs can directly use VM's physical memory for
their framebuffers. This can improve the efficiency of framebuffer and
overall performence for VM. The physical memory assigned to framebuffer
must be contiguous. We use CMA allocator to get contiguouse physicial
memory when the framebuffer size is greater than 4MB. For size under
4MB, we use alloc_pages to achieve this.

To enable framebuffer memory allocation from CMA, supply a kernel
parameter to give enough space to CMA allocator at boot time. For
example:
    cma=130m
This gives 130MB memory to CAM allocator that can be allocated to
framebuffer. If this fails, we fall back to the old way of using
mmio for framebuffer.

<title>video: hyperv: hyperv_fb: Support deferred IO for Hyper-V frame buffer driver</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.stealer.net/cgit.cgi/user/sven/linux.git/commit/?id=d21987d709e807ba7bbf47044deb56a3c02e8be4'/>
<id>urn:sha1:d21987d709e807ba7bbf47044deb56a3c02e8be4</id>
<content type='text'>
Without deferred IO support, hyperv_fb driver informs the host to refresh
the entire guest frame buffer at fixed rate, e.g. at 20Hz, no matter there
is screen update or not. This patch supports deferred IO for screens in
graphics mode and also enables the frame buffer on-demand refresh. The
highest refresh rate is still set at 20Hz.

Currently Hyper-V only takes a physical address from guest as the starting
address of frame buffer. This implies the guest must allocate contiguous
physical memory for frame buffer. In addition, Hyper-V Gen 2 VMs only
accept address from MMIO region as frame buffer address. Due to these
limitations on Hyper-V host, we keep a shadow copy of frame buffer
in the guest. This means one more copy of the dirty rectangle inside
guest when doing the on-demand refresh. This can be optimized in the
future with help from host. For now the host performance gain from deferred
IO outweighs the shadow copy impact in the guest.

Pull MIPS updates from Paul Burton:
 "Main MIPS changes:

   - boot_mem_map is removed, providing a nice cleanup made possible by
     the recent removal of bootmem.

   - Some fixes to atomics, in general providing compiler barriers for
     smp_mb__{before,after}_atomic plus fixes specific to Loongson CPUs
     or MIPS32 systems using cmpxchg64().

   - Conversion to the new generic VDSO infrastructure courtesy of
     Vincenzo Frascino.

   - Removal of undefined behavior in set_io_port_base(), fixing the
     behavior of some MIPS kernel configurations when built with recent
     clang versions.

   - Initial MIPS32 huge page support, functional on at least Ingenic
     SoCs.

   - pte_special() is now supported for some configurations, allowing
     among other things generic fast GUP to be used.

   - Miscellaneous fixes &amp; cleanups.

  And platform specific changes:

   - Major improvements to Ingenic SoC support from Paul Cercueil,
     mostly enabled by the inclusion of the new TCU (timer-counter unit)
     drivers he's spent a very patient year or so working on. Plus some
     fixes for X1000 SoCs from Zhou Yanjie.

   - Netgear R6200 v1 systems are now supported by the bcm47xx platform.

   - DT updates for BMIPS, Lantiq &amp; Microsemi Ocelot systems"

Pull Documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
 "It's been a relatively busy cycle for docs:

   - A fair pile of RST conversions, many from Mauro. These create more
     than the usual number of simple but annoying merge conflicts with
     other trees, unfortunately. He has a lot more of these waiting on
     the wings that, I think, will go to you directly later on.

   - A new document on how to use merges and rebases in kernel repos,
     and one on Spectre vulnerabilities.

   - Various improvements to the build system, including automatic
     markup of function() references because some people, for reasons I
     will never understand, were of the opinion that
     :c:func:``function()`` is unattractive and not fun to type.

   - We now recommend using sphinx 1.7, but still support back to 1.4.

   - Lots of smaller improvements, warning fixes, typo fixes, etc"
