Subject: [PATCH 06/11] fblog: open fb on registration
Date: Sun, 12 Aug 2012 14:53:20 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1344783205-2384-7-git-send-email-dh.herrmann@googlemail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1344783205-2384-1-git-send-email-dh.herrmann@googlemail.com>

This opens the framebuffer upon registration so we can use it for
drawing-operations. On unregistration we close it again.

While opening/closing or accessing the fb in any other way, we must hold
the fb-mutex. However, since the notifiers are often called with the mutex
already held, we cannot lock it _after_ taking the
fblog_registration_lock. Therefore, we require the caller to make sure the
fb-mutex is held.
