[Nouveau] Resource map sanity check fails after GRUB "keeps" the gfx mode
Hello!
I'm getting this backtrace every time I boot:

I believe GRUB does something to the videocard so that
drivers/video/console/vgacon.c passes control to
drivers/video/console/dummycon.c and that somehow confuses nouveau and
makes it map multiple BARs in one call.
Ironically, GRUB uses text mode on that system. Perhaps it cannot
enable the GFX mode. Yet it must be doing something bad when passing
control to the kernel.
I'm using 32-bit Lubuntu 12.04 with a 64-bit kernel. The GRUB version
is 1.99-21ubuntu3.10. The hardware is Lenovo ThinkPad W530, model
2441AA2. The BIOS is set to always use the discreet graphics.
I can reproduce the problem on the current master branch of the nouveau
repository, git://anongit.freedesktop.org/nouveau/linux-2.6

[Nouveau] Resource map sanity check fails after GRUB "keeps" the gfx mode
Hello!
I have spent some time on the issue. I'm not sure it's a nouveau bug.
I have a fix that changes arch/x86/kernel/sysfb_simplefb.c only.
GRUB actually uses graphic mode on my card. That mode is supported by
simplefb. However, the resource conflict happens regardless of whether
simplefb is enabled. It's sysfb_simplefb that causes it, a completely
different driver.
If GRUB keeps the graphic mode, I have this entry in /proc/iomem:
f1000000-f112bfff : BOOTFB
It is reserved by sysfb_simplefb. Nouveau tries to map an area at
0xf0000000-0xf1ffffff, so it includes the existing resource without
being equivalent to it.
Nouveau correctly calls remove_conflicting_framebuffers() before trying
to map that resource. However, sysfb_simplefb is not a real
framebuffer, so it doesn't free its resources.
iomem_map_sanity_check() doesn't check regions with IORESOURCE_BUSY
set. That's the comment from the code:
/*
* if a resource is "BUSY", it's not a hardware resource
* but a driver mapping of such a resource; we don't want
* to warn for those; some drivers legitimately map only
* partial hardware resources. (example: vesafb)
*/
So I added IORESOURCE_BUSY to sysfb_simplefb.c and the problem is fixed
now. Actually, it prevents nvidiafb from claiming the device:
nvidiafb 0000:01:00.0: BAR 3: can't reserve [mem 0xf0000000-0xf1ffffff
64bit pref]
But maybe that's the point of sysfb_simplefb? Anyway, here's the
patch/hack, signed off in case it's correct :)
sysfb_simplefb: mark BOOTFB resource as busy
From: Pavel Roskin <proski at gnu.org>
This fixes a warning when nouveau tries to allocate a larger iomem area:
resource map sanity check conflict: 0xf0000000 0xf1ffffff 0xf1000000
0xf112bfff BOOTFB
iomem_map_sanity_check() specifically excludes busy regions from
checking.
