Subject: [PATCH 0/3] fbdev: Request memory regions in platform drivers
Date: Mon, 20 Apr 2026 16:44:21 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260420134424.77494-1-amit.barzilai22@gmail.com> (raw)
Several fbdev platform drivers call ioremap() on their hardware MMIO
without first claiming the range via request_mem_region(). This leaves
the kernel resource tree (/proc/iomem) with no record of the mapping,
allowing another driver to silently map the same registers.
This series fixes three platform_device drivers by switching to helpers
that combine resource claiming and ioremap in a single managed call.
cobalt_lcdfb and clps711x-fb are converted to
devm_platform_get_and_ioremap_resource(); goldfishfb is converted to
devm_ioremap_resource(), which also lets us drop the manual iounmap()
calls from the error path and remove function.
For clps711x-fb, resource 1 (the framebuffer range) already used
devm_platform_get_and_ioremap_resource() correctly; this series makes
resource 0 (the MMIO control registers) consistent with it.
This is part of the ongoing effort described in
Documentation/drm/todo.rst ("Request memory regions in all fbdev
drivers").
