Message

PowerPC's Open Firmware offers a simple display buffer for graphics
output. Add ofdrm, a DRM driver for the device. As with the existing
simpledrm driver, the graphics hardware is pre-initialized by the
firmware. The driver only provides blitting, no actual DRM modesetting
is possible.

For version 3 of this patchset, all preparatory changes have been
merged into the DRM codebase. Only ofdrm changes are left.

Patch 1 adds ofdrm, which has again been significantly reworked.
The FWFB library has been removed infavor of various functions in
existing DRM helper libraries. Ofdrm now supports damage iterators
and synchronization for imported GEM BOs.

Patches 2 to 4 add support for color management. The code has been
taken from fbdev's offb. I have no hardware available for testing the
functionality. Qemu's stdvga apparently does not support gamma tables
in RGB modes. I verified that the color management code is executed
by running Gnome's night-mode settings, but the display's color tone
does not change.

Thomas Zimmermann (4):
  drm/ofdrm: Add ofdrm for Open Firmware framebuffers
  drm/ofdrm: Add CRTC state
  drm/ofdrm: Add per-model device function
  drm/ofdrm: Support color management
