Subject: [to-be-updated] fbdev-defio-assert-fbinfo_virtfb-drop-vm_io-add-vm_mixedmap.patch removed from -mm tree
Date: Sat, 10 Oct 2026 14:39:41 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261010213941.C33B31F00893@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)


The quilt patch titled
     Subject: fbdev: defio: assert FBINFO_VIRTFB, drop VM_IO, add VM_MIXEDMAP
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     fbdev-defio-assert-fbinfo_virtfb-drop-vm_io-add-vm_mixedmap.patch

This patch was dropped because an updated version will be issued

------------------------------------------------------
From: "Lorenzo Stoakes (ARM)" <ljs@kernel.org>
Subject: fbdev: defio: assert FBINFO_VIRTFB, drop VM_IO, add VM_MIXEDMAP
Date: Sat, 03 Oct 2026 17:32:49 +0100

Currently all drivers which use defio allocate system memory. All of them
also set FBINFO_VIRTFB, other than ssd1307fb, however this driver allocates
system RAM, so simply failed to set this flag when it ought to.

This patch sets FBINFO_VIRTFB on ssd1307fb probe, then drops setting VM_IO
in fb_deferred_io_mmap() and instead requires FBINFO_VIRTFB to be set,
erroring out with a kernel warning if not.

The logic requires a page from the driver and since commit 1ecbc7dd2902
("fbdev/deferred-io: Always call get_page() for framebuffer pages") has
always required it to be refcounted, so this was implicitly already the
case.

Finally this patch sets VM_MIXEDMAP, as the logic is mapping
kernel-allocated memory so this is appropriate.
