[PATCH 0/3] drm/panic: Remove build time dependency with FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE

[PATCH 0/3] drm/panic: Remove build time dependency with FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE

[Jocelyn Falempe]

When proposing to enable DRM_PANIC on Fedora, some users raised concern about the need to disable VT_CONSOLE.
So this is my new attempt to avoid fbcon/vt_console to overwrite the panic screen.
This time it doesn't involve any locking, so it should be safe.
I added a skip_panic option in struct fb_info, and check if this option and the panic_cpu are set in fb_is_inactive(), to prevent any framebuffer operation.
Also skip_panic is only true if the drm driver supports drm_panic, so you will still get the VT panic info on drivers that don't have drm_panic support yet.

Jocelyn Falempe (3):
  drm/panic: Add drm_panic_is_enabled()
  fbcon: Add an option to disable fbcon in panic.
  drm/panic: Remove build time dependency with FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE

[PATCH 1/3] drm/panic: Add drm_panic_is_enabled()

[Jocelyn Falempe]

It allows to check if the drm device supports drm_panic.
Prepare the work to have better integration with fbcon and vtconsole.

This feels like overkill since you currently only have one user in the
fbdev emulation code, but maybe useful in some other places ...

Since it's internal only, this should be in
drivers/gpu/drm/drm_crtc_internal.h and not int he include for drivers.
With that:

These two are only used in drm.ko. Can you please move them to
drm_crtc_internal.h too and drop the EXPORT_SYMBOL in a follow-up patch?
We're trying to limit the exported interface and official headers to
really only the pieces drivers actually need.

Yes, that makes sense, drivers won't need that API.

Sure, I'll add this to my next drm_panic series.

I think this also applies to drm_panic_init() and drm_panic_exit(), that 
I introduce in my QR code series:
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/604890/?series=135944&rev=2
I will move them to drm_crtc_internal.h

This was moved to drivers/gpu/drm/drm_crtc_internal.h in the applied
version and I can't find that version on the mailing list; imo this kind
of change requires a resend.

Also, the above breaks CONFIG_DRM_PANIC=n builds:

In file included from drivers/gpu/drm/drm_atomic_uapi.c:43:
drivers/gpu/drm/drm_crtc_internal.h:322:6: error: no previous prototype for ‘drm_panic_is_enabled’ [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
  322 | bool drm_panic_is_enabled(struct drm_device *dev) {return false; }

Stubs like the above must be an inline function.

[PATCH 2/3] fbcon: Add an option to disable fbcon in panic.

[Jocelyn Falempe]

This is required to avoid conflict between DRM_PANIC, and fbcon. If
a drm device already handle panic with drm_panic, it should set
the skip_panic field in fb_info, so that fbcon will stay quiet, and
not overwrite the panic_screen.

Bit a bikeshed, but I'd split this patch out since it's for drm's fbdev
emulation, not the fbcon core code. With that:

Agreed, I considered doing that when writing the patch, but as it was 1 
line, I kept it with the fbcon change.

[PATCH 3/3] drm/panic: Remove build time dependency with FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE

[Jocelyn Falempe]

Now that fbcon has the skip_panic option, there is no more conflicts
between drm_panic and fbcon.
Remove the build time dependency, so they can be both enabled.

This is great. Thanks for finding an alternative approach! I don't see any
issues this time, because there is no locking involved. But let's see what
others think about it.

Looks like it should work, I did check the history of fbcon_is_active and
we've used that to force/disable panic output for fbcon in the past. So I
think it's the right tool.

Thanks all,

I've just pushed them to drm-misc-next, with the required changes.
(splitting patch 2 in 2, and moving function prototype to 
drm_crtc_internal.h).
