Subject: "ls > /dev/fb0" generates weird ioctls if panning is set
Date: Fri, 16 Dec 2011 21:49:30 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4EEBBCEA.9020104@freescale.com> (raw)
If I do this:
echo "0,100" > /sys/devices/soc.0/fffe10000.display/graphics/fb0/pan
then whenever I do this:
ls > /dev/fb0
my driver receives the following three ioctls:
graphics fb0: unknown ioctl command (0x402C7413)
graphics fb0: dir=2 type='t' (74) nr\x19 sizeD
graphics fb0: unknown ioctl command (0x40087468)
graphics fb0: dir=2 type='t' (74) nr\x104 size=8
graphics fb0: unknown ioctl command (0x402C7413)
graphics fb0: dir=2 type='t' (74) nr\x19 sizeD
This is on PowerPC, where dir=2 means read.
The "echo" and "cat" commands don't generate these ioctls, so there's something special about the "ls" command. Does anyone know what's going on? ioctl-number.txt lists these ioctls for type 't':
't' 00-7F linux/if_ppp.h
't' 80-8F linux/isdn_ppp.h
't' 90 linux/toshiba.h
